Boiler Room Scams

[apologos]

Confirmation of the scam by IAM group

Dear all,
I can confirm I was the victim of these crooks. Unfortunately I was not as clear-sighted as many of you so I lost a few $. Thanks to all of advice I will try and get back some of them.

The way the scam was made is the same as described by many of you. Phone call, quickly under pressure, they talked about a wonderful perspective with IMMA. I made a hasty decision to go for it. The "compliance officer" talked to me with the commitment by phone and the like...

After a while I was asked for another payment for a bigger investment and "profit", thanks God I stopped it.
The way they use to proceed = IMMA was listed so people could check the price on the FT site for instance. Today of course IMMA is no longer possible, but with similar companies (not too big, etc.) they can repeat the scam.
Then they "sell" on your behalf "securing a profit", to but a non-listed company : in my case Retail Pond.
Names of people I talked to = William Taylor, Steven Parker, the Compliance guy Joshua Weiner...

Pro Nice and HSBC HongKong

Good Morning

I was about to send 12000 USD to a company that called me out of the blue a month ago and had an amazing deal for me. They knew of a merger that was about to happen and would strongly suggest i buy this share. I though that was really nice of them .

I said no, and they went away. Yesterday they contacted me again saying that the really want me as their customer and are will to offer a discount on the share, if I place the 700 Shares with them.

I checked out the company in all details, and found nothing wrong, barring the fact that they only had a searchable reference to them since November 2014 and then only to their website. Such a reputable trader should have more than that, if they have been in business since 1996?!

But I let greed get the better of me and when they phoned again last night, I agreed to transfer the money. They sent me a whole bunch of application forms all to be completed and sent back and then something triggered. They sent the remittance advice form and I remember a very old article here about Pro Nice limited. I searched on this bank account detail and found it as suspicious in Economics Fraud Website with the exact same account number.

So here is my question:
Should i post all the details here, including all the people and company names and bank account details?

Is it a boiler room?

Advice greatly appreciated

I wouldn't pay anything to a company that phones out the blue. My advice is pay nothing.

Don´t

Hello Gandolin,

Don´t send them any application forms or money. It is a scam! They most propably don´t have a licence to operate in your country. Check your local SEC.

I am a victim. If you give them anything, they can make your life a misery.

Do this: Don´t answer their calls. Make a report to police.

, I can confirm that AXIS CAPITAL GROUP (Jakarta Indonesia) is a well managed scam. I bought into a sales pitch which was presented by a well conversed brit..... The followup trade registration and subsequent membership and account registration appear professional even though it is 100% bogus. I wished I researched the matter with due diligence as I got totally screwed!

Have you any luck trying to recover the money from them.?

Also, search their tel # address, and other bits from their website or docs they send you. That will tell you if it's a virtual office or if the address was used in another scam etc.

Thank you for the info.
I guess you know by now Pan Colombian Mines does NOT exist.
I cannot find it registered or having traded in any stock exchange.
It was set up for just one year to defraud investors.
It expired on 02May15 and the website is down,
PT Java Trans Agents is new to me and sincerely hope the transaction took place very recently, the last 2 months.
I would suggest you contact your Bank and insist they do a “money recall” from the BII on the grounds of fraud.
BTW all contact names are false.
Good luck

Thanks for the info.
I already did a "money recall" to BII for 5 transfers in the 2 accounts. Curiously "Charles Mason" call me last week telling that he received a notification of the recall in the account by fraud and request me to go to my bank to drop the charges assuming my mistake and after that they will refund my money. Today, I received other long call with more pressure over the same theme.
They already have my money and are clear I will not send any more money under no circumstances...what are they looking for now?

I do not hold hope that Indonesian International Bank refund any money, but should I expect they collaborate to identify the account holders and trace the money based in past experiences?
