OIL & GAS SCAMS
SCAMS involve the setting up of fake websites for various imaginary oil, energy, mineral, agrochemical, natural gas and coal companies. To support the scam, fake government, associations, banks, law firms, tank terminals, shipping companies, and due diligence websites are also set up. The purpose is to induce the victim into paying advance fees for non-existent oil or other commodities. Fake documents are sent to the potential victim as further inducement. Many scammers will request an advance payment or fee amounting to a large sum of money before any oil is delivered, since, of course, no oil will ever be delivered. The fee is usually for some fake government or association allocation code, license fee, tax, contract servicing, authorization fee, mandate seller fee, down payment, federation fee, government ministry fee, pipeline fee, transportation company fee, etc. The fake advance fees are only limited by the scammer’s imagination, so keep in mind that ANY request for an advance fee is likely a scam. Frequently, the scammers request the fake fees be paid to some fake government officials or oil association agents through a fake websites or some fiduciary account. These scammers will state that such payment or fees are “customary.”
They are not! ANY ADVANCE FEE IS LIKELY TO BE A SCAM!
