| +1 Mr This Adv fella phones me and asks for my company to supply his Mine with Slurry pumps ,I then give him my email address and he sends me an email with the specs of the pumps.I then go to all my suppliers and come up with nothing until I check on Google and wallah I get the one and only supplier of the pumps and immediately i smell a rat and upon further investigation,I discover that both the company requesting these pumps and the company supposedly supplying the pumps are fictitious and run by a group of Zimbabweans ,with roaming Eco-net Cell numbers.The supposed supplier is a company called berto-eng supposedly based in Port Nolloth and fortunately I have a branch in Port Nolloth and the Berto company doesnt exist.The idea is once you deposit money into the supposed account of Berto eng they will switch off their cell phones and by the time you realise what is going on you will be seriously defrauded by then. |

Same as usual, these guys try the same scam with new web site addresses for slurry pumps which are only available from Port Nolloth. This has become a bi monthly mail I get and quite frankly it has become annoying because he is obviously getting away with the scam
