Best Finance Invest Inc 
is another huge Russian money laundering scam that has at least ten current identical aliases that I know of -Transfer Invest Inc. Best Finance Invest Inc., Best Money Invest Inc., US Money Invest Inc, Global EU Invest Inc., First Promote Invest Inc., EU Trust Invest Inc., E-Investments Provider Inc. and Digital Investment Projects Inc. They also have a lapsed alias of World Market Invest Inc. but the domain for that alias appears to have been suspended, Oh, and 'Future Invests Inc.' has been mentioned in the spams as well. In fact the more you look, the more of this crooks alter egos you find, e.g. e-Digital Corporation Inc. I could hold a competition for the most of this criminal's fraud websites found.... If you find any more, please let me know, (I'm losing the will to live). [Hint] Google using scraps of text in quotation marks from the website.

Evidence of Spamming and Criminal Fraud:

i) These criminals send out huge amounts of spam purporting to have "seen your resume on Monster", looking for a response and if you do respond you get an email proposing an obvious money laundering mule job
, (see examples below).

ii) Numerous absolutely identical websites as listed above, all supposedly different companies, all advertising the same money laundering mule positions, all the same contact details and all the same bogus 'registration details'.

iii) Spammers - example spam below.

iv)  Contact Details:

Staroalekseevskaya 7, Moscow, Russia, 129626

Telephone number: +1 (818) 574-6195
Fax Number: +1 (866) 875-1667
Department head: Mark Sheppard
E-Mail: info@bestfinvest.com


Note the address in Moscow but the bogus telephone numbers are US numbers.


v) Bogus 'government registration codes':


Our Goverment Registration Codes:

TAX ID: 00003790098
License code: 01047000
Europe CTK: DE-0007863

They don't say WHAT government, (presumably Russian), but the above bogus codes appear identically on at least eight totally different bogus company's websites, as listed above, so they are obviously fake.

vi) From the website: "Best Finance Invest Inc. was founded in 1999 and obtained a license for activity engaging at the same time. Our company acquired impeccable reputation of a reliable partner taking part in purchase and sale of securities." However, all the domains of these fraudsters have been registered in the last week or two.

vii) "
Best Finance Invest Inc." has no internet presence at all, apart from recognition as spammers and scammers.
