World Wide Auctioneer Fraud

Don't Bear Internet Fraud

This criminal fraud website should not be confused with any other company of the same or similar name - the following screenshot of the criminal's website home page and the detailed evidence below are intended to identify this fraudster, this fraudster alone and no other company.

World Wide Auctioneer scam screenshot 28-Jan-2010:

The World Wide Auctioneer scam is just another of the numerous Russian/Eastern European money laundering mule job websites, in this case masquerading as an auction drop site. Their website content is stolen from Pro Auction Consignment, they have no internet presence, their location and contact details are bogus and they are not a registered company in their supposed corporate location. They are hosted on the NL-web10(Web10 ict services)/EuroAccess Enterprises Ltd. IP address 85.12.24.16 which also hosts numerous porn domains and other clear fraud domains as listed below. This is a direct follow-on clone fraud site to Auction Online Solution and TransBridge-us, (that much is self-evident) and the criminal has other aliases such as Online Bid Solution, (advertising the same fraud job), and is related by host IP and/or nameserver use to Fender Group and Encore Media Solutions. The payload of this fraud site is the usual money laundering mule job of "Administrative Agent" under the 'Vacancies' tab.

If you are a registrar or a host who has received an abuse report concerning this criminal then please review the irrefutable evidence below and take prompt and permanent action to shut this criminal down.

If you've either received an active website link in an World Wide Auctioneer fraud spam, or know of an active domain and it is not listed in the domain tables below, then please let us know by reporting it using the 'Report Active Domain' option in the title bar above. Please see the tables below and the latest news for the latest hosting and domain details.

World Wide Auctioneer : Evidence of Criminal Fraud

i) The criminal's website content has been stolen from the website Pro Auction Consignment with the addition of a bogus job under a 'Vacancies' tab which does not appear on the genuine site. Clear evidence of site theft and criminal fraud.

ii) The World Wide Auctioneer scam is a clear identical follow-on scam to the Auction Online Solution and TransBridge-us frauds - this is clearly a serial criminal fraudster.

iii) They claim that their corporate headquarters is located in Florida, but a search of the Florida Business Entity Register shows that this bogus company is not registered in the state of Florida, (do not be misled by an inactive company with a similar name) - irrefutable evidence of fraud.

iv) They claim to have a network of drop-off stores, (although all Google location searches come back negative for these crooks - not to be confused with old 'Online Outpost' franchises), and their website footer clearly displays a website creation date of 2007 as can be seen in the above screenshot, but their website domain wwauctioneer.com was only registered with the registrar UK2 GROUP LTD. (1'ST DOMAIN NAME SERVICE) on 05-jan-2010 for the 'criminal's domain' minimum period of only one year - clear evidence of fraud.

v) A Google search for "World Wide Auctioneer" shows that they have no genuine internet presence at all apart from fraud website listings, (ignoring their own fake website, of course).

vi) The Bogus job from the website:

There you have the usual clear part time, work from home position. They don't spell out the function these days, but the clues are there, such as "commission right after the successfully processed operation". How it works: Firstly, be absolutely certain that there is no job here at all. These crooks sign you up, get you to hand over your ID details and sign a bogus contract. After that you are in what they call a 'probationary' period, or 'training period'. The 'training' consists of accepting transfers of stolen money into your personal account and transferring a balance back to these criminals using Western Union. This carries on until the first transfer comes back as fraudulent, (i.e. when the initial victim notices it missing from his account). As soon as that happens and you contact them to find out what is going on they will disappear and you will be in the position of having your account and its contents frozen, you will have lost all the real money that you have sent them and you will likely be facing a criminal investigation. Don't be tempted.

Frequently Asked Questions about our company, and a job, which offered to you.
I hope that this FAQ will acquaint you with the basic principle on a basis of which our company
usually operates, as well as with the senior administrator's answerability and duties in it.

WHO is WORKING AS A SELLER WITH OUR COMPANY?

The SELLERS, Who are cooperating with us, have an experience of sales during at least of two years,
on such a major Online Auctions like EBAY, QXL, and AMAZON. They should surely reach 30 feedbacks
as a minimum, with 98% positive of all the leads.

The SELLER can be located anywhere in the world. Basic principles of an items sale:
1. A Funds of the sale In order to sell goods, we prefer to cooperate with the major Internet Auctions,i.e. EBAY, Amazon auctions, big deal, QXL, and others.
2. A products for sale.The Most popular production, sold online: Collection Pieces, Gold and Silver Ware, Jewelry,Household Goods, Electronics, and the like.

WHAT is THE SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR'S ROLE IN THE PROCESS of SALE?

Wherever the SELLER and the BUYER live,- Our SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR negotiates between the customers worldwide.

Let's imagine that some SELLER from the Bulgaria wants to find a better BUYER for any PRODUCT through the any of U.K. Auction.Our corresponding area SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR will help to make this deal a real.

THE SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR'S MAIN DUTIES ARE:
* Controlling of the sales in a corresponding area.
* Processing of an incoming and outgoing mail.
* Working with the customers, accepting and managing a payments.
* Reporting to a company in written form every day, week and month.

DOES THE SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR PARTICIPATE DIRECTLY IN THE SELLING PROCESS? The SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR is an interlink between the SELLER and the BUYER.
* He/she is not responsible for the process of sale.
* That is why the SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR does NOT need to be a brilliant SELLER.
* The SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR is personally answerable for the collecting a payments,coming from the BUYERS, and for the timely forwarding a payments
to the SELLERS.

It is a hard Company policy - never to give out the refunds. The BUYER and the SELLER conclude a deal with an exchange of goods.

HOW WILL HE/SHE GET TO KNOW ABOUT THE PURCHASE RESULTS? All of the necessary information about the PRODUCT, the BUYER and the SELLER along with
an instruction for how to process it, will be e-mailed to you, the SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR, when a purchase is made.

WHAT'S AN ADVANTAGES FOR WORKING IN OUR COMPANY?
* All the personnel, working in our company is ensured by a two-week paid leave twice a year.
* Your holiday payment is at least of approximately 1,500 GBP for 4-week holidays.
* After the 3 months of work within the Company, the first leave can be taken.

Engaged to work for us in the U.K. Individuals, can't be referred to, or classified, as an 'employees'. As that term implies that we will be directly deducting from their payment an all the range of taxes,and paying a taxes for them to the respective U.K. agencies.Therefore, our commissioners in the U.K will be referred to as a 'SENIOR ADMINISTRATORS'.

WHAT'S THE SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR'S RESPONSIBILITY?

The SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR necessary should pay out to 30-35% of his/her total income, earned throughWorld Wide Auctioneer, LLC for normal taxation, including:
* A Social Security Taxes for the Self - Employment
* The Federal and State Income Taxes
* The Insurance for the Self-Employment

However, we will totally pay these taxes for you.When you'll need to declare your income for the taxation purposes, we will send you an invoice, stating
your total income, and then you will find out the applying taxes. We will cover for you this amount.

DOES IT NEED AN ANY INVESTMENTS TO START UP? You don't need NOTHING to start working with us!

You should not buy any Company products, or brochures, to get the SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR'S post.The company will recover all the losses incurred by you during the work.

THE SALARY FOR THE MONTH. A SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR EARNS: The salary for a Senior Administrator is calculated by as a percent rate of total managed payments(during the probationary period it is 5%)
* After the expiration of the TRIAL PERIOD, It can reach up a range of 4,500 - 6,500 GBP, because your payment will include the basic wage in 2,450 pounds, plus your commission rate of 5% also as in the TRIAL PERIOD.

Below is the list of what you will do, working in our Company:
While the SELLER and the BUYER operate with the reputable Online Auctions, our company connects them.
The BUYER will send a payment for an item to you, the SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR.
The payment can be made:
* By the Bank Transfer
* By the direct deposit You should keep your 5% from this amount, and forward the rest to the SELLER. You should withdraw the entire transferred amount for this purpose, deduct your rate, and forward to the SELLER the rest of the sum via money transferring system of Western Union.You should take a fees for the Western Union service from the 95% remainder. You personally do not have to pay anything!

Working within our Company you will weekly have to manage a few transactions, with the level of each of them,varying between 1,000-10,000 GBP. You must mail an outcome of your transactions to me personally every day, week, and month. If during the forwarding procedure you'll have any problems, please contact your Manager, and not the BUYER, nor the SELLER.

ALL THE TRANSFERS MUST BE FORWARDED TO THE SELLER ON THE SAME DAY WHEN THE PAYMENT HAD ENTERED INTO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT AND FUNDS ARE CLEARED, OR AT LEAST THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY. So, here is a summary of the SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR'S work:

* Our Company works as an intermediary between the SELLERS and BUYERS on almost of all major Online Auctions.
* Wherever the SELLER resides, You'll collect all the Payments from the BUYERS in your sales area and forward that to him.

The usually asked questions at this moment are:
* "Why do you need someone, who should be a 'middleman'?"
* "Why don't you use PAYPAL, as in other auctions, or your own business account in our country?"
* "Why should I use my personal bank account?"

The simple answer is that there are too many dishonest transactions via PAYPAL nowadays: PAYPAL is no longer reliably secured. We cannot expose to risk our customers money by asking them to use PAYPAL.That is why we use only direct bank transfers or bank checks. The second reason is that we're working worldwide, and our SELLERS don't even have a bank account sometimes ,but the items they have, are very good to be sold at U.S.A./U.K. auctions. (they are SELLERS from ex-U.S.S.R.countries usually) That's why we are asking you to forward a funds to them by the Western Union transaction. It is much easier for an ordinary citizen to send a domestic bank transfer or check for a purchased item inside the country, rather than using international bank transfer, or even Western Union transfer abroad.

So, here is what you have to do, working on a post of an Administrative Agent:
* You will keep a 5% from each transfer accepted by you and forwarded to the SELLER for yourself .(To forward the transfer you actually have to go to your branch and withdraw the whole amount of the transfer (or 95%)).
* Then you, using your local Western Union Office, have to forward it to the SELLER.
* All of the Western Union fees You will extract from the seller's part of the transfer sum.(from the 95% of the amount,transferred to you).
* You will have a number of transfers per week and each transferwill be from 1,000 - 10,000 GBP
* You will be sending a reports directly to me daily, weekly and monthly.
* You should not contact any SELLER or a BUYER during the TRIAL PERIOD. IMPORTANT NOTICE: YOU MUST FORWARD THE FUNDS AT THE SAME DAY AS SOON AS IT HAS BEEN ENTERED INTO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT,OR THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY AFTER. The main benefit of working with us, is that you can hire up to 5 of your own Administrative Agents after the trial period , and your commission ratewill be 1% from all the payments, managed by each of your team mate. So, if you invite to our program a five persons, you could have a 5 additional percents.All you have to do about it - is just to introduce the person, for whom you want this great opportunity to be shown,- to me, and I shall take care about the rest of employment process.Your Sub-Agents can be hired on the conditions such as you, with the only one difference:they will became a SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR after the 3 month of working at your team. After this period ( 3 months) each of your Sub-Agents will get status of SENIOR ADMINISTRATOR and quit your team to build his own team. You, at this time, can find another 5 candidates. All of above described is not necessary and depends only at your wish. For further information on how to get started, or to get some more clarification of any point, please feel free to mail me. (You need just to answer this e-mail) Please type in the subject field "Agreement UK" (without quotes), if you are ready to look at our Agreement. There are two best and fastest ways to get a response from me, because I have a lot of emails daily, as you can imagine. If you are not interested - sorry for wasting your time. Anyway thank you for your time and an interest in our proposal.

Phew... What a semi-literate mangled load of old 'Runglish' nonsense but still a crystal clear illegal money laundering mule specification that will not only cost you a lot of money if you are foolish enough to let yourself be conned, but will also get your bank account(s) closed, your funds frozen and earn you an interview with the police - do not be tempted.

viii) The fake, (bear in mind that they are not a registered company in FL), location and contact details, (from the website):

Corporate Headquarters

6200 Lee Vista Boulevard
Suite 102
Orlando, Florida 32822

Facsimile: (253) 276-3714

• - A Google search on the address "6200 Lee Vista Boulevard Suite 102 Orlando, Florida" returns no hits for these criminals.
• - A Google Maps Business search for the street address "6200 Lee Vista Boulevard, Orlando, Florida" shows no such business at that address - clear evidence of fraud
• - A Google search for the Fax. number "(253) 276-3714" returns no hits at all.
• - The above supposed Florida fax. number "(253) 276-3714" actually locates to Tacoma, WA.

All clear evidence of fake details and fraud.

The above evidence clearly demonstrates beyond any doubt that the criminal's website has been set up by fraudsters purely for criminal purposes. 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 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.
