Priority Global Road Fraud

Don't Bear Internet Fraud

Priority Global Road is just one of a whole host of money mule and reshipping frauds from the same criminal gang. To see a few more of these criminal's aliases, Google for scraps of text from the site, e.g. "by people with great experience and knowledge in the field of international transport". It is an identical follow up fraud to the First Global Road fraud with a simple name change, although the crooks have forgotten to change the page title which still reads "FGR We think globally"

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.

Priority Global Road : Evidence of Criminal Fraud

i) Priority Global Road claim on their website above: "Priority Global Road was founded in the beginning of 1999", but the criminal's domain priorityglobalroad.com was only registered with Enom Inc. (Rustelekom) on 13-Jun-2008 - that claim is clearly false.

ii) If they had have been around since 1999 they would have an internet presence. As it is, a Google search for "Priority Global Road" (include quotes), produces precisely zero hits as I write this, although no doubt there will soon be numerous hits from anti-fraud sites.

iii) Look at the screenshot of their home page: "We do care about our costumers." Perhaps they are a theatre company on the side? It's all a bit amateurish, really, e.g. "Wether handeling a critical item". It's just the usual mis-spelt and mangled 'Runglish' that is a dead giveaway trademark of these frauds.

iv) The Priority Global Road website's real function is to spamvertise both a re-shipping fraud part-time work from home job and a similar illegal money mule position accepting fraudulent funds into your account and transferring them back out to the criminals via Western Union or Moneygram for a percentage cut.

v) Here is the re-shipping fraud job of "Shipping Manager" from their website:

Shipping manager.

You must enjoy working in a fast-paced, hands-on environment and
have strong multi-tasking abilities and interpersonal skills.
This job requires punctuality, good organizational skills and proficiency with Microsoft office programs to maintain inventory and fill in necessary forms.

You will receive packages with electronics from our suppliers and then forward it to our further world wide clients via major shipping
companies: Fedex, DHL, UPS, USPS.
You will generally receive high Tech. Equipment - computer hardware, audio systems, electronics etc.

5. Be responsible, hard working and communicable.
6. Be able to answer phone calls.

We offer competitive compensation, including base salary, commission, and expense reimbursement
Approximate quantity of packages/letters per week depends ONLY on your skills.

The above fraud could not be clearer - it is the well recognised function of "re-shipping fraud". There is no genuine requirement for such a service and what the unfortunate 'dupe' may not realise is that the goods he has reshipped have been purchased by fraud, e.g. stolen credit card details and he will be the only traceable link in the chain. This fraud is well documented by many authoritative agencies, e.g. the United States Postal Service detail it here in a press release dating back to February 2005.

vi) and here is the even more well known & totally illegal money mule function, here entitled "Financial Manager" on their website:

Once again, the proposed job could not be clearer - it is the well known and totally illegal money laundering mule position which entails receiving stolen or fraudulent checks into your bank account and immediately wiring them back to the criminals via Moneygram or Western Union.

vii) No legitimate company is going to spamvertise among the untrained, inexperienced and uncertified general population for a "Financial Manager" acting as a spare time, work from home criminal money transfer agent accepting funds into a private account and transferring a balance out via Western Union. Such a proposition defines the company without doubt as criminal and fraudulent. Neither are they going to advertise for a similar "Shipping Manager" working from home in a part-time position. The correct term for this position is 'Fence' as the only possible reason for such a function is to launder stolen goods.

The above evidence clearly demonstrates beyond any doubt that the Priority Global Road website has been set up by money laundering & re-shipping fraudsters purely for the purpose of spamvertising illegal jobs. If you are a registrar or a host abuse team that has received an abuse report regarding these fraudster's domains or hosting, 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.
