Boiler Room Scams

Watch out for Pacific Alliance

Pacific Alliance Mergers & Acquisitions - Business Broker :: Investment Banker :: Roanoke, VA

Looking to work an advance fee fraud on people, ie they'll offer to pay you a fortune for your shares but first you'll have to pay a fee to get them registered, or some crap like that.

Pay that fee and IT WILL BE STOLEN.

There is NO Pacific Alliance company, it is a scam boiler room, everyone who works there is a confirmed thief and liar.

YOU'VE ALL BEEN WARNED.
 
Ref. IBG & Associates, I have just been sent a copy of the CLAIM OF LIEN (an INJUNCTION LIEN) placed on the sale of ATS Specialists, Inc. who apparently owe $1.47M to Pacific Capital Group (an IT company), based in Hong Kong. This has 4 separate signatures on it, including a Public Notary, State of Florida, dated 4th May 2010.

This was forwarded to me by Carol Desmond of IBG & Associates, and I am trying to prove the validity of this document given all the concerns of ATS Specialists, Inc interested parties.
 
Ref. IBG & Associates, who I am trying to check out regarding their offer to buy ATS Specialists, Inc. stock providing I and other shareholders pay off the Injunction Lien first via an Escrow Agent based in Panama; I now have a copy of this CLAIM OF LIEN signed by Robert Waters, Notary Public, State of Florida dated 4th May 2010.

The judgement was in favour of Pacific Capital Group, based in Hong Kong and their president Peter Moore. I am now trying to locate this company and talk to the president to verify this debt. I have his Hong Kong passport number, but nothing else.

Can your senior police contact help? If so please contact me via [email protected]

All of what you're being told and sent is a lie, it's as simple as that.

The company is worthless, IBG are scammers, all they're trying to do is furnish you with documents and facts (all lies) in order to scam more money.

If you even touch this you are going to lose more money. This is the second part of a boiler room scam, the recovery scam. They are the same criminals that stole your money in the first place. They will ask you for an amount of money in advance, then they will steal it and disappear. All this talk about notaries is pure nonsense.

The IBG website was created in May 2011, the content is partly copied from SVL Asset Management's website, SVL is a confirmed boiler room and is the subject of various government warnings.

There is no Notary Public called Waters registered in Florida.
 
Glad to have helped Sir!

That's why we keep this thread so alive and everyone is encouraged to post information about the scammers, their (fake) names and websites.

So here's my good deed for the day -

Watch out for this scam Boiler Room - RA Lafferty Inc - R.A.Lafferty Inc.

Whatever they tell you is a LIE. They exist with one aim - TO STEAL YOUR MONEY

Please ask here if you're unsure of any company that calls you about an investment. This thread (I reckon) has saved people hundreds of thousands of pounds over the years.

Sure, we might be a little bit hard on some people, but would you prefer we're hard yet you keep your money or instead, nice yet we steal it.........

HI jrawlin1
That stamp of a notary in Florida is also fake, probably a federal offence in the USA
 
I'm not sure if this one is already on the list, but Rockwell Trading is defenitely a big scam! This is the live recording of me disclosing their scam during a session in their NOT live trading room: Rockwell Trading Scam - YouTube Underneath the vdo is a URL that leads you to the full story of my 12 months experience with them. Yes, I was a dufus :rolleyes:...
 
Hi all,

Some of you probably know about the firm 'Eden Brown Group', and was wondering if anyone of you could shed some light on this.

Apparently, the Motley Fool has removed all negative posts about them as well...

They were mentioned back in February on this thread, they are a boiler room scam.

and there is still some mention on the motleyfool

TMF: Eden Brown Group / A fool And His Money...
 
Thanks for your reply. Another point I would like to make, is, why haven't the FSA put them on the unauthorised firms list? Eden Brown Group have been around for some time.

Probably because nobody has reported them. That would be my guess.
 
I myself have spoken to the FSA about them, and wanted to get more information. Unfortunately, they told me that this information was confidential and that by searching on google, you could make your mind up about the firm, 'hint, hint'.
 
Moreover, I believe they are operating in Marbella, and not in Barcelona, as they claim on their website.
 
Not sure exactly, but if I find out I will let you guys know.

Marbella is a hotbed for boiler rooms, I hear as well.

Hello do you still have van for sale


Hello there,


I am glad to hear that you are interested to buy my 2006 VOLKSWAGEN Transporter T5 2.5 LWB Campervan Diesel. Although I am registered in the UK,i recently moved to Cadiz, Spain (where my family is from) and the van is being shipped from here. I want to sell it in UK due to the fact that it's an UK version (right handed),it meets all UK standards.I bought this van from UK and It still has UK registration, so you won't have to pay any import and insurance fees.The camper meets all United Kingdom guidelines so there will be no problem regarding UK Customs policy on receiving the camper.The vehicle is in perfect condition, the bodywork is immaculate,no scratches, dents or hidden defects as well as the interior in excellent non-smoking condition , never been implied in any accident and it is as advertised. The van comes with log book, HPI cleared, No finance. You will get from me the keys and all documents to register the van in you name.If the van is not how i described it, i will offer a full refund.. It will be insured during transportation and will be delivered at your address in maximum 10 days. Final price is GBP 5,000 (the price includes shipping and insurance fees).The price is low because the van is right hand drive in a country where all vans are left hand drive so in the Spain is very difficult to drive this type of vehicle and nobody wants to buy it here in Spain.Instead of keeping it in garage ), I decided to sell it to someone back in the UK for a really attractive price.

I want to take this opportunity to assure you that this deal is 100% legitimate,the deal will be manage by a very well company,in this way both buyer and seller are 100% covered during the steps of this transaction.
Let me know if you need any further details or if you would like to buy my van.

Thank you!

Hello i would like to buy the van but would not pay any money till i received the van.
That would be cash on collection or delivery.


Hello,

Due to the fact that i am located outside UK and we can not deal in person,i`ve contacted Yahoo Finance regarding this issue and they told me that they could offer to me a program that is created especially for international transactions that protects both of us. They agreed to supervise this deal.
You will send the funds to Yahoo Finance and they will keep the money until you receive the vehicle and test it.In this way both buyer and seller are 100% covered during the steps of this transaction. They will hold and insure your money until receipt of the car in good condition. That is how their service is working. As far as the seller concerns, i will be glad to know that Yahoo Finance is in possession of the funds during the delivery period.
You will be given a 15 days inspection period from the day you receive the car at home( i will ship it to your address insured for full value to you ).
If you decide to keep the car, then you will have to authorize Yahoo Finance to release the funds to me, and the transaction is complete.If the vehicle is not as described ( perfect interior,exterior,mechanical condition ), you will be able to send the vehicle back through the same shipping company ( return postage at my expense ), and ask Yahoo Finance to return the money to you.

If you want to check the car here are the reg details #:

# Vehicle Registration Mark (VRM) FX56KSK
# VIN (chassis number) WV1ZZZ7HZ6H109910

The Yahoo Finance link they give is fake, it's got nothing to do with Yahoo Finance, the page is made to look just like Yahoo though.

Now, this is CRITICAL.

Go look at the page - Yahoo! UK & Ireland Finance - FTSE, Stock Exchange, Mortgages, Loans & More

Can you work out (within 1 minute) that it's a fake site? If no, then YOU'RE AT REAL RISK FROM GETTING SCAMMED ON THE INTERNET. Not on this deal perhaps, but on something else that comes your way. Please don't discount what I say because scams are only going to get worse over the coming years.

YOu must always be your first line of defence and if you realise your defences aren't that good, ie cannot spot why the site above is a scam (within 1 minute) then be very very careful about doing business on the internet in the future because you're at real risk.
