1st as you rightfully say this has to be reported everywhere including your local police as it is a criminal offence against you a UK subject, the rozzers will state that there is nothing UK law can do because it's being done from outside the UK, however this depends on many factors including the amounts involved that WOULD involve many specialist teams to go global on the recovery etc!!!!
Annette P, Problem here is they could be in this forum !! I have read your post and all I can say is everything is tracable!!!! I done alot of research before handing over a single penny, even had a friend police officer check with the Metropolitan Police Internet Fraud Dept, all came back OK (at the time) prob unaware then!! We need to report this at all levels including the mentioned and the US FBI, because everything done in this world now is traceable to someone! I had the Anthony Marcus or Mr ???? ((real name ^%&*$%)) ??? call me, I became more sus when I suggested to him that we sell the shares because they were at $3 each back last week, thinking I could make £17,000 profit from my £3,000 investment I was pushing to sell especially because Anthony wanted me to invest £12,000 into AATV, I told him what I wanted to do with the Paco shares cash them in take some desparate needed cash for myself, and reinvest the rest, but he became quite shirty saying "how can I earn money if you don't listen to me, (now I know what he meant) surely you can raise £12,000, can you raise it on credit cards, loans or re-mortgage" yep he said all that! anyway he kept straying off the subject of selling the Paco shares, insisting on me investing an additional £12,000, whats got me on this is that the shares arrive via Fedex, the address they come from is the Oil company address in the USA, the phone number is identical to that on the documents from Paco (who I have been phoning but do not answer, nor do the bank telephone numbers answer!) anyway this week I had been keeping an eye on the share value and noticed that they fell by -$2.50 and are back at $0.50c each, so being fairly wound up by the fact that Anthony didnt listen to me and sell which I could have profited with +£17,000 when they were worth $3.00 each I tried to call him, NO SERVICE ON HIS NUMBER, so I went to the IMS website NO SERVICE JUST A MESSAGE THAT STATES NOT AVAILABLE, urh oh!!! I started doing some more checks on IMS, The building houses many small offices and small businesses, YET IMS do NOT appear in the Swiss yellow pages, I done a reverse search on the phone number, I ended up being on a website that offers swiss phonenumbers that re-route to any number anywhere in the world! the
[email protected] email is linked to the IMS website it has the same IP Address, also the contact info@paco....... email does not work and bounces back as refused!!! (This is an international fraud on a very worldwide scale) am I right in guessing right? you have to admit that if it is it's very good infact amazing! how they used resources from around the globe etc, anyway enough praise on these scums, I was approached via a cold call out of the blue, the reason I didnt become sus on it is because I had looked at genuine stock/shares websites and companies in London, and I though that my info had been passed to IMS because the company in London said I didnt have enough funds to safely invest without causing hardship to myself, OTHERWISE I would not have responded to any of it, ((NOTICE - DID ANYONE ELSE DO THAT AS WELL? LET ME KNOW - I AM SEARCHING FOR THAT E-MAIL THEY SENT ME)) but thinking of that and the way I transffered the funds using a non withdraw account with diff name! on 2 seperate occassions, Anthony Marcus could not find the 1st payment I explained the account name and he later called back to say that it has been found, my share certs duly arrived via Fedex, I have had another so called company from switzerland ????? try to get me to buy into something else but I took my misses advice ((who has been very suspicious from the start - fair play to her)) and made out I had no more money to invest as I already work with IMS, IT WORKED TOO! saved my dosh there then, you state in your post about claiming somehow, I have come accross something about this claim thing if the scam is or was not mentioned on a particular UK site I will start my research again about this and get back to you, and others!
