Welcome to Scamwarners Rmc1979 and I regret to inform you that you aren't employed by anyone, and certainly not the real Finance Outsourcing Limited.

The scammer is an imposter and you can view abridged details of the real company's 2012 accounts here

http://companycheck.co.uk/company/07434698#accounts-tab

...... (click on the accounts tab) which doesn't tally with the overblown waffle, verging on drivelling nonsense, that appears on the scammer's website.

Transcending beyond an industry's vertical segments ......


The website tries so hard to appear credible and impressive, it uses English grammar with all the finesse of an elephant trying to perform ballet.

Phrases like the following one point to its origins as being West Africa, as such attempts to impress using 'car crash' grammar are typical.

Economical crisis is as always on it's fluctuating scales.


If you read the website carefully and critically, it really is quite amusing and I could spend all day pointing out technical, factual and regulatory faults. That it's a fraud isn't in doubt. Proof reading the site for errors would be a mammoth task as they have made such a mangled mess of it, half of it doesn't make sense and the rest is factually incorrect.

Having established their fake identity as being that of a UK company, laughably they then state that they are headquartered and operate in the USA without giving any contact detail there, not an address or even a phone number. The websites are actually an embarrassing shambles.

You must not, under any circumstances pay on any money you receive by Western Union or Moneygram.

Any money you do pay on will effectively come out of your pocket, as it's been stolen and the bank will recover it from you, apart from any other action they may take.

Of course, the fact that you can run through this forum and look up over fifty 'doppelganger' websites, all in different names, but using the exact same wording and even pictures, leaves no doubt. The scammer has overplayed his hand on an epic scale. I sincerely doubt that this is a viable or profitable scam for the fraudster any longer, but the harm it will do to any victim, means that we must do our best to warn anyone likely to get caught out by it.

Thanks for your comment and information.

Welcome Rosy,

I'm not sure that I understand your comment.

Just to be very clear: The company does not exist. It is a fake company, created by criminals. If you accept a "job" from them and perform the activities they request, you are committing a crime, and you are risking losing a lot of money, your bank account(s), and possibly even your freedom, as you can be arrested and jailed for your activities. This is a SERIOUS crime, and can come with some very real prison time, and a criminal record that will haunt you for the rest of your life.

-If you initially responded to them, but did not give them your bank details, you have nothing to worry about.
-If you responded to them and gave them your bank details, but you have not performed any activities, it is still better to notify your bank that you have inadvertently given your details to them, so the bank can monitor for suspicious activity.
-If you DID perform activities for them, you NEED to notify the fraud department of your bank, and report the crime to the authorities, if you want to make sure you are not considered an accomplice when the crime is later discovered.

Alternatively rosy22, you could ask your bank to perform an enquiry on the source of the funds to confirm its authenticity with the originating bank.

What's the harm in that ?

Rosy, this is a money laundering company. It hires money mules to receive money from victims of other scams and transfer it to scammers. If you take the job, you're going to have scam victims looking for you, and will probably get interrogated by police and have your bank account shut down. If you enter your online banking password on that site, you're going to have even worse things happen to you. Don't do it!

what i cannot really get my head around is how these websites are allowed to float on the web with well analysed details of their legality stating what they do
after having a thorough read through this site it leaves an unsuspecting victim with no doubt about its legality i have been a victim of this scammers but thank goodness i am not of the mindset of the profit and that is reason why i still have my bank account intact as i was able to provide the bank with all the documents involved
the questions i still ask myself is "who are those behind this initiative"? "why are they allowed to float their spiders web on the net" as a matter of fact the pictures of their so called directors on the website make it all too dope to be false i would say
if this sort of activities costs the government so much and they are still allowed to thrive with their scam the way they do i would think they must be the government themselves or their cronies involved

The registrar of these sites is in China or Pakistan. The nameservers are registered in the Soviet Union (yes there is still a Soviet Union TLD) or Poland. The hosters apparently tell the scammers to take the site down; they just move it to another hoster. These scammers have learned which registrars and hosters are least likely to shut them down. They're not like Grafton-Riggs websites, which usually go down within a day of us finding out about them.

i must be right by saying the government and their cronies and allies as they would be the ones to devise means that would make them hang on for as long as long can be,while the never ending onslaught goes on

The general set up, production and organisation of these scam sites isn't a secret. Someone's turned their production in to a business and they're selling them on a fully completed basis with operating instructions. Like any business, if it doesn't produce a good enough return then you can maximise its profitability by franchising it out. That's basically what's happened. To a lesser extent it's happening with agricultural and construction machinery sites but the drawback to it all is that as more and more are produced, the less effective they become, and they're being sold to scammers who don't really know how to use them. Apart from that, as they're being highlighted here they become 90% less effective anyway. The builders also aren't really bothering about quality control either, and some of the more recent ones are duds.

Considering how much effort and expense the franchisee has to put in I imagine that they soon become discouraged, having to get 'money mules' to complete six page forms and then go thorough an interminable on line interview. That discounts the spamming expense and effort, and getting hold of hacked account details. Bearing in mind that a 'money mule' has a maximum life of 3 payments, but usually only 1, the only one making money is the person managing to get scammers to pay money for the sites.

Scammers appear to like the idea of purchasing a funky online money making machine, but the effort, expense and complexity of making it worthwhile doesn't become apparent until they've saddled themselves with a site they can barely operate. As an example, the machinery websites have been of an awful standard and are very insecure. It just goes to show that there's no mug like an unintelligent scammer.
