How can I find out or post a large warning about a possible fraud company working out of the UK

The information listed below is what I have about them. I have sent some money and continue to be asked for more due to things such as customes and what not. They also sent me a shipping number for a company called Fast Link Xpress,,,known to be a fake.

Please let me know who O can go to and or report this so they don't continue to hurt people

Hello, and welcome to Fraudwatchers.

This would be a better spot than the legal resources forum.

If you sent the money via Western Union or Moneygram, you probably need to file a report with their fraud department, just so they are aware of this fraudulent company. If you found the "store" online, then a link to the website would be helpful. We may even be able to get the hoster to shut it down.

Other details, like what exactly they pretend to sell (cell phones/mobiles, I presume?) and how you came to try to do business with them would also be helpful. Did they spam you? Did you find a referral in a forum somewhere?

The "address" may not be much help. Fraudulent online stores usually either use nonexistent addresses or use addresses belonging to real, innocent companies. The phone numbers are both "personal forwarding numbers". Though they appear to be UK numbers, they can actually be "forwarded" to a phone anywhere in the world.

As I replied to your other post, the numbers are "forwarding numbers". That means the people you speak to on the phone could be anywhere in the world.

A Google search for "4 LONDON ROAD" CROYDON SURREY "CR0 2SG"
turns up nothing. I doubt there is anything associated with this supposed business at that address.

However, this is not a great deal to go on. You don't state where you came to hear of this business, how you got in touch with them, how you sent payment, or other things that could be useful to us in offering advice.

According to the Companies House website the company was recently dissolved

Name & Registered Office:
TELECOMMUNICATIONS INTERNATIONAL (UK) LIMITED
34 LONDON ROAD
WEST CROYDON
SURREY CR0 2SG
Company No. 02728116

Status: Dissolved 16/05/2006
Date of Incorporation: 02/07/1992

It may be that you were dealing with the company before it was dissolved (unlikely as these things take a long time to do) or (more likely) the scammers are using the identities of recently closed companies to carry out their scams. Either way I would stop dealing with them. I'm not sure Companies House would be able to do anything if you reported the scam to them, but they may be able to add a warning to the details for that company.

If you post all the information you have on him, others can at least search it and find out he's just a scam.

From the email you sent me, he used tommobiles@yahoo.com and through searching that in Google I found him using these numbers:
+234-8033979805
+234014707059

It's common for UK scammers on Alibaba to impersonate real companies, just like this one is doing. Most of them have those 4470 forwarding numbers as well, usually forwarded to a Nigerian mobile.

I've merged these two threads to avoid confusion.

+234-8033979805
+234014707059

Both of which are Nigerian. I would say this is a scam attempt.
