ABC Web Design IncThis is just a standard Russian scam website that has been set up to form a front for a money laundering job spamming campaign using a completely stolen website and a fake Polish identity. The spamvertised fraud 'job' betrays that it probably comes from the same gang of Russian crooks that produce the vast majority of highly generic frauds on this website, i.e. the '<random name> Group Inc'. fraudsters. The website content is stolen from this genuine company and the fraud job of 'Financial Manager' that is concealed in this hidden folder is identical to the detailed fraud job posted on the hundreds of '<random name> Group Inc' fraudster's websites, e.g. Premier Group Inc. The criminal's domain has only been very recently registered for the usual 'criminal's domain' one year minimum period, they have absolutely no web presence in their own right and their location and contact details are bogus. The whole purpose of the fake site is to lend an air of legitimacy to a job website spamming campaign intended to recruit money laundering mules whose illegal function is to accept stolen money to their personal bank accounts and transfer a balance back to these criminals. Do not be tempted unless you want to lose a lot of money and end up with a criminal record.

ABC Web Design Inc : Evidence of Criminal Fraud

i) The criminal's website is stolen in its entirety from this genuine company website. That much is self-evident and clear evidence of criminal fraud.

ii) As the website content is stolen, it mostly doesn't really apply to the criminals, nevertheless, on their 'About Us' page they say: "We've been focused on internet technology solutions and web services for the past 5 years", however, their website domain abc-webdesign.cn was only registered with one of the usual 'criminal's choice' of Chinese registrars, 厦门东南融通在线科技有限公司 (Online Technology Co., Ltd., Xiamen Longtop) on 17-Nov-2009 for the usual 'criminal's domain' minimum period of only one year. A clear indication of a fraudulent registration.

iii) A Google search shows no web presence linking back to this particular ABC Web Design Inc, (ignoring the crook's own website, of course), which gives the lie to their claim to have been in business for five years. Not to be confused with any other company of the same name - it is not an exclusive name.

iv) Fake 'Contact Us' details from their website:

A: Tarnow, ul. Wałowa 4 1B, 51-326 Poland
T: +48 22 389 7067
info@abc-webdesign.cn

• - A Google websearch for the address "Tarnow, ul. Wałowa 4 1B, 51-326 Poland" shows no sign of these criminals - just this fraud blog listing.
• - A Google Maps Business search for the address "Tarnow, ul. Wałowa 4 1B, 51-326 Poland" shows no sign of these criminals at the address.
• - The post code 51-326 is a Wroclaw postcode, not a Tarnow postcode and the telephone number has a Warszawa city code (022) - All clearly fake.
• - A Google search for the telephone number "+48 22 389 7067" shows no sign of these criminals - just a fraud site listing, however the number also appears on another fake Polish website called "City Web Design" whose domain city-pl.com was also only registered with Todaynic.com on 12-oct-2009 for a one-year period, and whose website appears to have been stolen from this genuine website called "Coal Web Design" using Teleport Pro. - further clear evidence of serial fraud

All clear evidence of fake details & fraud.

It's short, to the point and incriminating...

The above evidence clearly demonstrates beyond any doubt that the ABC Web Design Inc website has been set up by money laundering criminal fraudsters purely for the purpose of spamvertising an illegal money laundering 'mule' job. If you are an abuse team that has received an abuse report regarding these fraudsters, please consider immediate termination of their services in view of the absolutely undeniable evidence of criminal fraud - please don't delay - these criminals will not respond to any communication from you, (all their whois data is false), but will simply take advantage of any attempt at communication as a delaying tactic to allow them time to carry on their criminal activity and prepare their next network.
