Thank you very much for your reply and finding.

I really don't know what can they do with an ICPO. But it's good to know that' it's a SCAM.

How and where can I report or post this so this would not happen again.

Once again, your help is greatly appreciated.

ICPO

never issue an ICPO to a supplier you have never dealt with before, if they request one, don't send it. you don't want some scam artist to check your available funding... etc.
just send them a letter of interest without banking details, and list down "please provide company registar no., etc..." for the legal existence of the company, "of course, you have to spend time and check its validity. then ask for POP (proof of product), ask them to send you no less than 15 pictures, all dated with contact person included in the pictures.
if they cannot provide, then 100% that they don't have the product

Hello mazuta100,

A scam report on yasnotekoil.com can be found here;

http://resources.alibaba.com/topic/4...Sellers/78.htm

Their website was created Nov. 3, 2009 for one year only, which is another red flag pointing to scam;

http://whois.domaintools.com/yasnotekoil.com

I personally would stay away from them.

As Dodo mentioned the Alibaba thread explains how the scam works, and it applies to other products advertised from Russia such as urea, cement, fertilizer, various by-products and minerals.

Yasnotekoil is not a scam company

Please note that the YASNOTEKOIL is a legitimate company and i have dealt with them on three occassions and my shipments were succesfully delivered, verify their official website and the one you have because there are alot of fraudsters who duplicate the website of this company and use them to defraud other people, i was once a victim before i started dealing with yasnotekoil. This is the reall website www.yasnotekoil.com, if you have any website other than this please note that they are fraudsters.

Lukoil.com is the legitimate company that had content of their web site illegally copied by yasnotekoil.com

The individual who registered yasnotekoil.com also registered multiple scam domains including fake Russian Government domain rugogam.ru

Saputro claiming to be in Malaysia actually posted from Russia. www.yasnotekoil.com is a FRAUD and Saputro is a scammer.

Dude, seriously? You really imagine for a second that any of us anti-fraud activists are actually going to answer a question like "who are you" and actually use our real names on public forums? My Name is Ward Shuecraft, that's not real either, it's an anagram of FraudWatchers. I have others, some rude too.

**edit**
Why am I not suprised that Tonymichael was a scammer. Nice work Mr P!

NOVOKUIBYSHEVSKREFINERY.RU was created just a few weeks ago for a single year and they are using it exclusively for email. You are being scammed again likely by the same scammers who keep changing names, this is likely due to the fact that you showed keen interest in their previous attempt with their bogus yasnotekoil.com and they sense you are a good prospect as a victim.

Unregistered,

This "company" is using a free webmail address and mobile phone number for contact. This contact telephone has also been used in this other scam. It's a scam.
