Capella Finance Inc. scam. This is an obvious money mule scammer using a fake finance site to try and lend an air of legitimacy to their fraud. They claim to have been in business for nine years but their domain capellafinance.com was only registered with REGISTER.COM, INC. on 14-may-2009 for the usual 'criminal's domain' minimum period of only one year. The payload of the website is the usual illegal money mule solicitation under the Career menu option, they are not a registered company, their location details are bogus and their telephone number is a Yahoo rented voicemail number. The wording of the fake website job is very similar to the Advance Finance LLC series of frauds which would link them to the majority of Russian scams on this website. They have no web presence and their 'About Us' page is pure 'Runglish'. This Google Search based on their 'About Us' page nonsense gives an idea of the scale of this huge Russian criminal operation. They have another current identical scam website as 'Remington Finance'.
This fraudster should not be confused with any legitimate company of the same or similar name - the above website graphics and the included money laundering job clearly identify the fake website and these fraudsters.

Capella Finance Inc. : Evidence of Criminal Fraud

i) Capella Finance Inc. claim on their website 'About Us' Page: "Within 9 years of hard work the company acquired international standing and managed to develop into a global financial holding having the staff of 3000 people and representative offices in more than 30 countries", but the criminal's domain capellafinance.com was only registered with REGISTER.COM, INC. on 14-may-2009 for the usual 'criminal's domain' minimum period of only one year. A clear indication of fraud

ii) This Google Search based on the above 'About Us' page nonsense gives an idea of the scale of this huge Russian criminal operation.

iii) A California State Business Register check shows that the company "Capella Finance Inc" is not registered as a company in their supposed location of California - check for yourself. Clear evidence of a fake company and therefore criminal fraud.

iv) A Google search shows no internet presence at all for this particular Capella Finance Inc., apart from its own fake website, of course, (not to be confused with any other company of the same name), which makes this claim on their about us page: "Within 9 years of hard work the company acquired international standing and managed to develop into a global financial holding having the staff of 3000 people and representative offices in more than 30 countries." laughably absurd. There is however considerable evidence of job website spamming.

v) Stolen site content. Their 'Services' page has been copied from this 'Paychex' page.

vi) Identical fraud alias in Remington Finance Inc.

vii) Fake Location Details (copied from their website)

Telephone: 310-773-5827

Email: capellainc@aol.com, info@capellafinance.com

Address: Capella Finance and Payroll
             6420 Wilshire Ste 220 Los Angeles, CA

As the company is not registered in California, (as evidenced above), it follows that the above location and contact details are bogus.

• - A Google search for the address "6420 Wilshire Ste 220 Los Angeles" returns only the criminal's fake site and a fraud site listing.
• - A Google Maps Business search for the address "6420 Wilshire Ste 220 Los Angeles" shows there is no business of the name "Capella Finance" at that address.
• - The telephone number 310-773-5827 Googles as a Yahoo registered voice mail number - clear evidence of fraud.

In other words, just your average ILLEGAL money laundering mule position that will get your bank account and your assets frozen, and could earn you a criminal record. Clear evidence of criminal fraud.

ix) No legitimate company is going to spamvertise among the untrained, inexperienced and uncertified general population for a person to conduct money transfers using their private bank account. It clearly defines Capella Finance Inc. as a criminal fraud organisation.

x) The virtually identical illegal job was posted by the fraudsters other aliases as listed above.
