[QUOTE="lightfair, post: 119104, member: 3816"] Hello; lightfair from escrow-fraud.com here. I've also replied to your message on redflagdeals. First: Yes, it's a scam. "Richmeier Trading Corporation" is the latest one in a long series of identical sites. Here are the last few examples of the "R" variant: Richberg Trading Corporation Rewerts Trading Corporation Risberg Trading Corporation Rocknet Trading Corporation and so on. There's also an "I" variant: Izinga Trading Corporation (currently active) Izec Trading Corporation Irvine Trading Corporation Ivers Trading Corporation and so on. So how does this scam work: [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogus_escrow"]Bogus escrow - Wikipedia[/URL] This one has a special "spin", though. As "AllFlash" correctly noted the actual site is not found by Google. This is not the result of shitty SEO though. The scammer deliberately uses "noindex" and "nofollow" tags (or at least he did this in the past; nowadays the whole site has javascript obfuscation); because we "scammer hunters" would find very quickly. Instead the scammer has set up a number of "forums" (in reality just single web pages) on which people seems to ask about the "company" and then get good recommendations. And yes, people have fallen for this. Those "forums" mimick existing legit forums; like this: [URL="http://www.pinkbike.myshopify.com.forum-topic-forum.online-member-www.pinkbike.myshopify.com.iwmch.com/RCHMR%20Q532188182.html"]Richmeier Trading Corporation SAFE!!!!!![/URL] The real forum can be found under [URL="https://www.pinkbike.com/forum/"]Mountain Bike Forum - Pinkbike[/URL] (they have absolutely nothing to do with this). This particular scammer has been operating for several years; I've been following him since late 2015. [/QUOTE]
