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.
Profit Financing Inc. :
Evidence
of Criminal Fraud
i) Profit Financing Inc. claim on
their website "The company was set up in 1990 in New York, the USA by
three enthusiasts having financial education", but the
criminal's domain profit-financing.cn
was only
registered
with Bizcn.com on 11-Mar-2008. Clear evidence of fraud
ii)Our Partners: They used a fake Yahoo finance
site to lend legitimacy to their company by showing a bogus stock
figure for the equally bogus Profit Financing Inc. The domain used for the
fake Yahoo site is finance-yahoo.org
which was registered with PublicDomainRegistry.com on
21-Aug-2007
by the ubiquitous Michelle Fischer with patently false whois data. That fraud website has now been closed down. iii)Our Partners: They used a fake Businesswire website to display a
fake news item also to lend legitimacy to their company. The fake
domain home-busineswire.biz,
(note the missing 's'), was registered with WILD WEST DOMAINS, INC., (A
GoDaddy sister company), on 14-Feb-2008. That fraud website has now also been closed down. iv)Our Partners: They used a fake Serfreportwebsite to display a fake news
item also to lend legitimacy to their company.The fake domain www-serfreport.comwas registered with
PUBLICDOMAINREGISTRY.COM on 13-Jun-2006. That fraud website has now also been closed down.
v) Our Partners: They used a fakeStockhousewebsite to display a fake news
item also to lend legitimacy to their company.The fake domain www-stockhouse.bizwas registered with
GODADDY.COM, INC. on 05-Feb-2008. That fraud website has now also been closed down.
vi)
A Google search shows no internet presence at all for Profit Financing Inc. apart from this anti-scam website link. They are also not listed at
the UK Companies House or the
UK Financial
Services Authority which they would have to be
to be able to legally trade in the UK - they are undoubtedly a bogus
company. Clear evidence of criminal fraud.
vii) This
scam is related to the Calisto
Trading Inc. scam among
others & is identical to the Epayment
Solutions,
Emarket Solutions Inc.. Oranta
Group Inc., Legal Operations Inc., Ketler Group Inc. & Secure
Operations Inc. scams - it
even
has the same following contact details for all the different companies: viii)European Contact Details
(copied from their website): EUROPE, United Kingdom (Iceland,
Republic of Ireland)
Street address: 81 holland road
City: london
State: london
Zip: nw105at
Country: United Kingdom
Director: Johnathan Carter
ix) The
limited registrar whois data for the domain ketler-group.cn is quite
obviously false.
x) They use
the same criminal registered nameserver
domains motohero2200.info and westsport4000.biz
as the other frauds and which were only registered on Feb. 5th. 2008.

laundering

DUTIES.
We are searching for people to process payments coming from our clients.
Profit Financing Inc. shall provide an agent with detailed instructions relevant
to payment processing operations, including full name of the sender and sum
total in every particular case.
When funds are received on employee's bank account Financial Agent's duty is
to withdraw cash and transfer the funds via International Wire Transfer or using
International Western Union/Money Gram money transfer system. The main advantage
of our services is the shortest possible time within which the seller can receive
money for the services/goods sold. If this operation is delayed, our client will
have a right to cancel the contract and we shall suffer financial losses.
That's why successful applicant must be very responsible and careful!
TRIAL PERIOD POLICY.
Successful applicants are offered the position on a trial period (1 month).
This is a period when new employee will be trained and receive online support
while working and being paid. A personnel supervisor can recommend termination
during/after the trial period depending on agent's activity.
New employee needs to be responsible and strictly follow our recommendations in
order to pass the Trial Period successfully.
SALARY.
During the probationary period we offer 1500 USD monthly salary
plus 8% commission from each payment processing operation. For example,
an average $5,000 payment will bring $400 commission (but WU/MG fee is paid
from this money, find more details below). Furthermore we offer $50 bonus for
each transaction completed by 11am (local time). With the current volume of clients
on average your overall income will add up to 3000 USD per month. A successful
agent may ask for additional tasks and earn more.
After the probationary period base salary will go up to 2000 USD per month,
plus 8% commission. Base salary ($1500) is paid at the end of each month via wire transfer
to employee's bank account. Commission (8%) should be deducted from the
processed money.
IMPORTANT DETAILS.
Financial Agent must process received assets during one business day, i.e.
from money collection on bank account to money re-sending to our client as
indicated in the contract. Should money collection on employee's account is expected
on day-off or holiday all payment processing procedures have to be completed
within the following working day.
Every 14 days Financial Agent receives invoices for each transaction. This document
is a confirmation of transaction validity, and in case of unforeseen
circumstances it will evidence your personal non-participation. All invoices
will contain detailed information about provider and will be sealed and
certified by the President signature.
*After the Trial Period invoices are sent every business day.
Since business transfers can be processed with delays, so Financial Manager
have to specify a transfer as a remittance of private character. It is also
applicable in case of a third party interest in the transfer.
Our clients appreciate our performance and are ready to pay extra for
shorter terms of transaction. If we manage to deliver the goods to the buyer
within 10 days, the deal is considered to be fulfilled at the earliest
possible date.
All the fees (WU/MG) are paid from employee's commission. BUT our Company undertakes to
reimburse part of expenses which are incurred in connection with money transfer (WIRE or by
Western Union/Money gram system) should money transfer charges exceed 3%. At that, your net
profit will amount to 5-8% of the total sum of payment processing operations
We don't require any investments to get started/work in our Company.
The Company offers incentive bonus program based on results of work and
including several factors, i.e. total sum of money transferred, payment
processing time, etc.
Just more clear and irrefutable evidence of the illegal
money mule function that these fraudsters are trying to con you into
accepting. You will end up with your bank account and all your assets
frozen, the loss of a great deal of money and could result in criminal
charges. The above
evidence clearly demonstrates beyond any doubt that the Profit Financing 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.
