Breakthrough International Organization Fraud

Don't Bear Internet Fraud

Breakthrough International Organization scam screenshot 03-Aug-2009

This criminal fraud website should not be confused with any other company of the same or similar name - the above screenshot of the criminal's website home page and the detailed evidence below are intended to identify this fraudster and this fraudster alone.

This Breakthrough International Organization fraud is one of an identical series of spamvertized bogus charity Russian criminal money mule scams reminiscent of the Happy Kids and Happy Children scams that were around not long ago. The criminal has previous dead identical aliases, (which is in itself clear evidence of criminal fraud), of Vincent Black International, Victor Oliver International, Kenneth Shelton International, Jimmy Hudson International, Arnold Bryant International, Bernard Herrera International, Erik Stanley International, Micheal Lewis International, Randall Barnes International, Ron Jenkins International and Rodney Lawrence International. The site contents are all identical, only the fake name changes. The identical content of the known fraud websites is a patchwork quilt of content based on the genuine charity website of 'Habitat for Humanity'. Googling for unmangled scraps of text from the above shows that they always come back to the Habitat organisation or their many affiliates, for example this scrap and this scrap and so on throughout the site, for example, their 'who we are' page uses content taken from here. It does appear, however as though the habitat.org website has been updated recently. The criminal's fraudulent domain has been recently registered, (07-Jul-2009), for the usual 'criminal's domain' one year minimum period with GODADDY.COM, INC., their contact and location details are clearly bogus and they are not a registered organisation at their supposed location. The payload of this fake site is the usual clear money mule 'job' of 'Donations processing' which involves receiving 'donations', (stolen funds) to your bank account/home address and sending a balance back to these crooks using Western Union. As can be seen from the above screenshot, they have even managed to sucker GoDaddy into hosting their scam site for free.

Evidence of Site Theft, Fraud & Spamming.

i) The Breakthrough International Organization fraud is identical to all of the numerous other dead and current aliases as listed above - only the fake name changes - clear evidence of fraud.

ii) Their initial domain breakthroughincorporated.com was registered with GODADDY.COM, INC. on 07-Jul-2009 for the usual criminal's domain minimum period of only one year which makes a nonsense of their extravagant claims of achievements to date such as "At work in 89 nations, the ministry has housed more than 7500 individuals in 30 communities" taken from their 'who we are' page, (which actually Googles back to all of the crooks various aliases, plus the scam.com anti-fraud site that shows the scam going back to 2006 under other aliases).

iii) Stolen site content as evidenced above.

iv) No web presence - a Google search for "Breakthrough International Organization" returns only their own criminal website ATM.

v) They are spamvertising the following clear money laundering mule job entitled "Donations Processing" under the 'Jobs' menu option:

Donations processing

Job Requisition # - 2045     Independent Contractor     n/a     Telecommuting     Confidential

This position is responsible for processing of donations.
Enjoy flexibility in working location and hours.

    * What we need from you?
      We need the responsible and punctual person who will be taking care of regional donations. "Taking care" means to make these donations reach the destination point as fast as possible. No delays. This is so because the donations are coming to a place where they are really needed this time. If donation is late, the charity action may not be performed at the proper time. That's why we require the punctuality from our applicants.
    * How does it work?
      You will be receiving tasks daily (in mornings) by e-mail. The task should be completed during the day. You shall dedicate 2-3 hours/day to complete it. The task will contain information on current donation passing through your hands. You will receive all details about where this donation is coming from, how to handle it, where it's going, and how to make the transfer of it.
    * Your salary and employment.
      Your will earn 7% from every donation you process. We also pay all the expenses and financial charges if such occur. We guarantee you will make $500 for the first week if you process all donations on time.

vi) There can be no argument about the criminal nature of that advertised 'job' - it is the clear and well documented 'money mule' function of accepting stolen money, (disguised as 'donations'), siphoned from unwitting victim's accounts into a private account and transferring them back out using Moneygram or Western Union.
No legitimate company would advertise for private citizens to do such a part-time illegal job working from home exchanging money, it is clear evidence that the company is both bogus and criminal.

vii) For more information on the fake job, See the identical Kenneth Shelton International and Rodney Lawrence International aliases for spam examples and responses.

viii) Yet another alias, yet another set of fake 'contact us' details from the website:

Breakthrough International Organization
40 S Macdonald
Phoenix, AZ 85210
Phone: (888)823-4333
Fax: (888) 823-4333
If you have questions and comments about our company, please send a message to publicinfo@breakthroughincorporated.com.

• - A Google web search for the address "40 S Macdonald, Phoenix, AZ" shows it to be the address of a company called "Breakthrough Technologies", (an IT company), except that it is in the suburb of Mesa, rather than Phoenix itself. In any event, it is clearly nothing to do with these crooks.
• - A Google search for the telephone number (888)823-4333 shows that it is also the number for the above unrelated company.

You don't get a much more clearly fake set of details than that.

ix) There is no such charity as "Breakthrough International Organization" listed as a legal entity in the Arizona State company register - clear evidence of a fake company, (check for yourself), so the above details are bound to be fake, or in this case, simply stolen from a genuine company as these crooks often do.
