job offers by Accurum Technologies LLC

Even i have recieved same email and same phone calls demanding 3800$. Also they said there will be signed documents mentioning the payment and everything.

I have already written email to the US embassy asking them if this company is real or fraud. Since they have an working number it is easy to track them.

If i get any response i will post it here.

Hello,
I am in US but my very close friend in India received email from Accurum. I googled and landed in this website. It was an eye opener and extremely helpful. I told my friend that it is a complete fraud and do not waste your time.
I specially liked FW_Admin's post how all the positive responses about the company came from the same IP address - clear fraud.
The other interesting thing I noted is that they do not communicate anything about this payment of $3800 or whatever in their email - they talk about it only on phone (sounds fishy)

Thank you very much FW_Admin and others for keeping up the good work. I was wondering if there can be any legal action taken against this company through Federal agencies like FBI/FTC/FCC/INS etc.

Accurum has some fairly strange marketing methods. They seem to keep asking questions on Yahoo Answers just so they can promote themselves. Most of it has been deleted by Yahoo already but some is available through Google cache:
How can Accurum Technologies help usmake business decisions?
What documents required for applying job in Accurum Technologies?
Accurum Technologies Areas of Expertise Include:?
What is the Benefits of Working with Accurum Technologies LLC?
What documents required for applying job in Accurum Technologies

They are not being very subtle either, check out this character for example:
http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;...how=XnIwEYjgaa
Here he says he is getting his h1b from them:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...nfo-L36nxstlaa
Here he promotes them:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...nfo-XJypO3IYaa
Here he has "researched" them:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...nfo-OK76m5Ejaa
And here he works for them:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...nfo-VmvytRBsaa



And searching for "accurum technologies" turns up tons of blogs with information and wanted ads for the company, like these for example:
http://accurumtechnologiesnewjerseyusa.hipbloggers.com/
http://accurumqualityconsulting.blogspot.com/
http://accurumbusinessconsulting.blogspot.com/
None seem to have much in the way of personalized content.

I would guess it's an attempt to improve the search results. If you Google "Accurum Technologies" the Yahoo Answers pages end up on the first page along with Joe Wein and FW.

Indeed... a very positive indication that their methods are far from being ethical, professional and even to an extent, legitimate.

We have also been approached by the lawyer allegedly working for these companies, to demand that this and other related threads be removed from our site, upon pain of legal action. Of course, this was typical bullying tactics since, as a lawyer, the legal representative of these companies should have researched the Communications Decency Act a little more thoroughly.

We refused to remove the threads, and will continue to refuse to remove the threads. They will remain here as a beacon to all those that are, or will be, targeted for extortion by these companies. Pertinent information relating to these matters has been passed to the relevant authorities here in the USA, and to the US Embassy in Delhi, India, for their perusal.

Scammers tend to try and remove all traces that sees them in a bad light; what they don't realize is that the truth will always be exposed, and that it cannot be hidden by empty threats.

And that's why we're here

We shall have an answer to this particular question within the next two weeks.

Hi, i had received an email from kanika of Accrum a few weeks ago, initally i choose to be away from them as they did not seem to have any personlaised responses for the resume that i had sent them, however i kept getting reminders from them asking me to call them at the earliest to get the deal closed. When i called them today, i got to speak with Miss Neha who later transefred me to Mark. Mark sounded very stubborn and kept repeating the fact that i either apply now or i stand to lose a wonderful oppurtunity, he kept trying to convince me that i would be at loss if i choose to disagree with him. Our conversation lasted for over 30 mins after which i choose to get back to him. post my conversation with him when i googled for Accrum , the first link that i got was of Fraudwatchers and not of the company.

i would like to know if it would be of any harm as i have given them my personal email address and ph number. please advise

[FW Admin]

Thanks for your post, and it merely reinforces the already recognized view that they are unprofessional and unethical, as well as having questionable motives regarding their alleged "fees".

No, I don't believe they can do much with the details you have given them, providing that you have not told them your personal banking information, nor credit card details, social security number and other such discrete data.

One thing I again observed from your post, and that is the typical pattern they have adopted of getting people to call in to them (which costs them nothing) as opposed to calling out to people (which all legitimate companies will do, and which of course bears an expense). Emails are free, and it makes me wonder whether in fact their operation is one that maintains simply a "front" for the organization, and that outgoing telephone calls are, in fact, barred... makes one wonder, doesn't it, what kind of business that allegedly deals internationally, gets themselves into such a distasteful situation? One can only speculate, but the sum total of conclusions based on the posts here leaves very little outcome selection.

Here's their latest marketing tactic:
http://experiencewithaccurumtechnolo...pbloggers.com/
If they want to display endorsements from their customers (assuming they really are customers which is quite doubtful), why are they doing it on a free blog site, and not their website?

My guess is: Because each of these blog sites with subdomains get their own entry in the search rankings.

Considering the threats of legal action against FW, you would certanly never expect a LEGITIMATE organization stoop to wasting bandwidth trying to knock down page rankings of our site like this. Just goes to show that the truth really does hurt... them. It's sad really, especially as this bunch of scum are screwing their own countrymen. Disgusting. I hope Bubba makes friends with these people real soon.

[FW Admin]

Because it makes it more of a "personal" experience, rather than it being associated with their sites. Somwhat similar to the "anonymous" posts we get here in the forum that endorse scamming businesses and websites.

Of course, it is the people who run the company that are creating these free blogs and making these false posts, to try and convince others that they are genuine (which we all know they are not).

They have invested far too much of their own cash and time/effort into this scam for them to simply fade away, as most other scammers do; however the more they try to maintain their profile, the more blatantly false their claims become when held up to the light.

Accurum Technologies are frauds; there is no question about that. There has not been one single instance of any successes through their processes, simply because it cannot happen legitimately. Whether they have managed to break the US immigration law and imported illegal aliens, is something that has yet to be proven, but investigations into these matters are very easy to instigate.

On the other hand, there are maybe hundreds of reports about them having stolen money from people in India, some their entire life savings, just in order to pay for their bling. Money that has been handed over to Accurum on telephone demand, then the Indian people (their own countrymen) have been told "tough luck buddy, and thanks for your cash" because Accurum have given their "clients" - nothing; nada; zilch; zero - not even an acknowledgement.

They do not pick up their phones; they do not respond to emails. Only criminals with something to hide do this. And only criminals with something to hide get their lawyer colleague to threaten and bully websites such as this to keep quiet. Or else what, Accurum?

Take this as an open invitation to Accurum Technologies, Optima Resources, CLD Associates or whatever else you decide to call yourselves:

Give us documented proof of your successes. Show us that you are genuine, and not a bunch of scamming lowlifes that steal money from your compatriots. Prove that you are legitimate, and not the snivelling little cowards that try to hide behind bully-boy tactics,. that fail miserably against those that know the law better that yourselves.

Otherwise, be prepared to be exposed for the criminals that you are. And I hope you're ready to accept the consequences of your crimes, both to your fellow citizens, and to your country. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Hi Guys,

I too received a email from them. I had some initial chat with mr. Sumit Patel frequently. They are interested in me. I had already given my all certificates & Passport copy as desired. Afterwords, they told me to pay US $3800 in two installments as H1b visa process & which is refundable during the service.

Manoj sharma, Manager HR, Ph : +1-732-214-0861, +1-732-301-2490. +1-732-470-7650
Pratik Mahat, Sr. Manager Ph : 732-354-4828
Sumit Patel, Sr. Manager - Recruitment, Ph :+1-732-372-7288

I got a same offer mail from three Manager's that all are Manager. One thing I did'nt understand that they are belongs to same company & they don't know which candidate is shortlisted / selected ? Also they didn't reply in detail any of the mail or query.

I just want to know that can I do with this. Is it really safe to give them money??? Please advise..

[Frazzle]

Do not give them your money.
It is all a scam.

No-one can guarantee an H1B visa for you.

I'm sure that every person in Accurum Technologies uses the title "Manager" (or any other title) whenever they feel like it.

[FW Admin]

Thanks for posting, One of Candidate - please read these forums to obtain information about Accurum Technologies. Also, please read, as a matter of great importance, our article about US Visa Information - India.

The phone numbers you gave in your post can be analyzed as follows:

+1-732-214-0861
Reliable Associates
850 Us Highway 1
North Brunswick, NJ 08902-3312
Geographic - Verizon

-----

+1-732-301-2490
Unpublished
Geographic - XO - East Millstone, NJ

-----

+1-732-470-7650
Unpublished
Mobile - Sprint Spectrum L.p. - New Brunswick NJ

----

+1-732-354-4828
Unpublished
Geographic - Comcast Business Communications - New Brunswick NJ

-----

+1-732-372-7288
Unpublished
Geographic - Level 3 Communications - Metuchen, NJ

As you can see, out of the five gven, only one is actually published (visible in the telephone directory) and that relates to a business called "Reliable Associates" - whether that is a part of Accurum is yet to be determined, but isn't it strange that Accurum's main listed number as published on their website was not given to you?

Out of the other four numbers, one is a cell phone. The other three are all unpublished (ex-directory) which is again, extremely bizarre for a business or company.

You will also notice the diversity of both the locations, and the providers of the system, thus indicating to a very great extent that these are either private residential numbers, or numbers that may be seen as providing an "answering" service for Accurum. Either way, pointing to a very unprofessional and unethical mode of business... which, by now, Accurum have more than shown themselves to practice.

I would, personally, stay as far away from Accurum as humanly possible.

I read the whole of the threads in the FW site and it looks very suspecting about Accurum.
Most the story on the this thread coincides with mine. But would like to add a few more which I have seen different.

I was in talks with them at first and later dropped this idea of going with them.
I got a call from neha with whom I said I'm not interested and later transferred to kanika
who convinced me and then I was ready to take it up.
Note the call which i received didn't display any number "NO NUMBER".
Another thing to note is the mail response from them always comes from kanika1, kanika2 and kanika4 or something.

I was about to go to bank to do the transfer and just something made me google it and come across FW and I am very happy I did it. Infact I have sent her a mail pointing this website and asking her to justify. Not sure whether I will get any response.

Thanks FW_admin and all guys to put up this information here.

I hv also received the offer letter & after telephonic discussion I already sent $1000 to Mr. Sumit Patel in f/o Accurum Technologies LLC, NJ (in January-08) out of $3800, but afterwords no reply is received. they are not given any mail reply. They get the DD. Pl. advise how i will get my money back ?

They replied in few words & in single line. now on ph. call no body replies clearly..

[FW Admin]

If it's Direct Debit, there should be a direct debit guarantee involved. Your bank should be able to claw it back from the receiving bank, although this could take anywhere between 6 to 8 weeks.

First thing you must do, though, is to contact your bank and ensure that you lodge a DD dispute claim.

I know it will sound wierd...but has anyone of you physically chkd whether or not the company exist or not?? As i read the post i find the dates ranging in 2006 onwards....if at all these people are scammers...why dont the US govt. take any action against them? As it would be very easy to trace them as they have working telephone line....

I am not supporting the Accurum......but just want to know for how many years these people will play with the emotions of the people....which are more valuable than 3800 USD or 4000 USD.....these people should be chained......if at all they are fraud.

Please reply as i want to know more about these bas..............

I`ve recently recieved letter from that company and my uncle he is in LA talk the lady kanika she ask to me abt the 3800 USD with two installments please reply.

If you read this post made earlier in this thread (page 1) you will note especially that:

francly my bro spoke to his attorney and he said it would take only $180 for filing H1B),my who lives in NJ is the same old post road but a diffrent suite no went to the mentioned address of ACCURUM TECHNOLOGIES and he said he never found a consultancy by that name and also we bought the telephone numbers informations and all the LLC address just to check this LLC but under the list of registered LLC's there he did not find this LLC's registration

so yes, the address has been checked out.

As for user asdasdiijjjjjfjfjfj - I really don't know what else to post here for you, except to ask you to read the contents of this thread which you do not seem to have done, considering the content of your post. I and others have already said that Accurum Technologies are scammers. If you are waiting for someone to tell you otherwise before you listen, then on your own head be it. There's only one way to say "They are Frauds".
