Has anybody had dealings with Cyrrus Capital Ventures. I have some loss leader shares which they say a Hedge Fund will buy at above market rates ( as Equity Debts ) as long as I buy some of their Apple Inc Shares. I will pay additional money for these. Anybody any advice. Thanks
Max
You're being setup again, it's called the double dip scam. First they sell you worthless shares and then they tell you they're not actually worthless and can sell them for you at a big profit.
But you'll need to pay them a 'bond' or 'facilitation fee' in order for the deal to go through. Pay that money and you can kiss it goodbye. Or perhaps in your case offer you some other shares, basically anything to steal your money from you again.
You have been warned so please listen to your head rather than your heart. And never forget that these thieves are experts at telling you what you want to hear.........

Yes chances are they did sell you the shares in the first place which is how they know about you?
You see the 'company' that sold you the shares wasn't a company in the first place, everything was made up, perhaps they called themselves Golderberg Lynch Capital Inc. Now a different 'company' called you perhaps they call themselves 'Park Avenue Invesment Ltd', again all made up.
Als, chances are that 'John Winston' the person you spoke to a few years back is speaking to you again but this time he's called 'Michael Summers', both names are fake.
And as for the Apple shares they're thinking 'hold on this fella is most probably worried about these small companies so we'll try and hook him with a big brand name like Apple, Nokia or Sony'.
As I said to you before (AND ANYONE ELSE READING THIS) these thieves tell you what you want to hear and belive in order to steal your hard earned money.
BE WARNED - ONLY EVER DEAL WITH BROKERS THAT ARE LOCATED IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY AND ARE REGULATED BY YOUR COUNTRY'S FINANCIAL REGULATOR.
And that means you MUST check them out fully by a) calling your fnancial regulator to check them out (they all have departments where this can be done) as well as, and this is VERY VERY IMPORTANT calling them on the switchboard number that is on file at the financial regulato AND NOT THE NUMBER THE 'BROKER' ON THE PHONE GAVE YOU. You see chances are that some of these scammers say they're working for a regulated firm aren't.
Follow those simple steps and it's hard to get scammed. But the best and simplest advice is to NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH ANY FINANCIAL FIRM THAT COLD CALLS YOU.
Be careful everyone because these scammers and thieves are very good.
If in ANY doubt you MUST hit boards like this where myself and other posters will help you.
PS. The final warning to stop people getting scammed is if you have to wire money to a foreign country especially in the Far East, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Thailand or the Carribean then 99% chance you'll never see it again.

By the way Max it's great that you and others post on this board and share some of your problems because I really believe that boards such as this and their comments have saved people literally (collectively)£100,000s if not a few million by warning them of the scams.
Sorry about your loss but take a little bit of heart from the fact that that you are actively helping starve these thieves of money.

Ever heard of VCBC holdings?
Hi, while we are on the subject of non UK brokers etc has anyone had dealings with VCBC holdings Ltd who are registered in Serbia?
They offer commision on deals that you broker for them (they also get you the client!!) but first you have to register as a agent which costs $10'000.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

These are the signs of typical scams
As I don't want to see any other people being sucked into this I am also removing the link in your message to their site.

Take your $10,000 to a casino and place it on the roulette table. It will be more fun than "registering as an agent" and you might even get some money back.

Well, i think you guys have misunderstood my original question! i certainly don't want anybody to spend there hard earned with this bunch, as already mentioned a good friend has got involved and i wanted to know if anybody has heard of or delt with this company in any way so i could find out if they were legitimate or not!!
As clearly no one has, lets say no more about it.

Hi Bono, and everyone else,
If you want to know within the bounds of reasonable doubt about companies, put the websites for them in your post, that way, those of us that have been scammed over the years and learnt what to look for can check for you, it is pretty simple, just a domain lookup, and google reference, but not everyone knows where to look. Put up the site of the company that calls you, and all the other sites connected, like the one for the company they are selling stock in, any exchange they quote and so on. it not only assists in lookup, but if they are a scam, these pages are well referenced by the search engines, which means if someone else types in the company name and "scam" or "fraud", they will find it much more easily.
Hi, thanks for the reply, i totally agree and that was the reason for adding my post, to see if anyone had had dealings with said company and i did post the web name so others could give their opinion on it, the moderator has removed it! but this was in no way intended to 'advertise' the site.
So i'm none the wiser but thanks again for your input...

I think it might depend on which context you post, for example, "has anyone heard of scam investment? their site is www.-------.com, failing that, post on the "boiler room scams" thread, it seems of there, have found many a site and domain and dody company in there.
