The fake site claims to be View Global Inc. The website is stolen from BusinessPlanFunding, part of Investor Resource Alliance (IRA) Network.

From the fake site:

View Global Inc (VGI) Network, an A+ Better Business Bureau (BBB) rated enterprise, is a wholly owned division of Capital Resource Associates Network, LLC (CRAN ), a national association of industry resource professionals, providing Business Services and Funding Resource referrals and introductions to fund new and emerging small to mid cap businesses. VGI has an extensive background in business development, business and marketing plans, business consultation, debt and equity private venture transactions along with traditional and hard money and venture capital raise ups . Our well developed relationships with Angel Investors, Venture Capital funding firms, Hard Money and Private Lenders, small business merger and acquisition professionals, incubators, service providers, SEC specialist attorneys, CEO’s, and other intermediaries offer our clients unsurpassed experience and services and opp0rtunities for their business and funding needs.

The VGI Network, LLC was established in 1996 by Joel Levy who was joined shortly thereafter by a roster of key Business and Financial professionals. Its principles had, at that time, over 30 years of combined experience in providing Capital Resource Assistance and Business Consulting.

A search on Google map will show View Global Inc at that location. Don't let yourself fooled by this detail: a real company doesn't need to steal the website of a business founded in 1997 while claiming to be a year older. A real business active for 32 years will not use a voice over IP phone number as the main contact option. The location is a townhouse sold few months ago, according to rental lists available online; there is no business registered in that location.

"established in 1996" is a lie - the fraudulent domain name was created in September last year.

The email address used to register kapitalyatirimholdings.com (page 1, investment company supposeldy located in Turkey) is also used as a contact on a free registered domain name pretending to be Buy Mobiles Limited supposedly active in the UK and Malaysia.

From the fake site details:

Buy Mobiles Limited is supported by one of the UK’s most successful mobile providers, offering you with expert advice, up to date news and information on the latest business mobile phones and smartphones.

The company began in 1997, when local businessman Paul Sisson founded A1 Comms and opened a chain of 14 high-street shops selling mobile phones in and around Derby. In 2003, he set up BuyMobileLimited as the online arm of the mobile phone retail industry and such was its success that Paul sold the shops in 2006 to concentrate his business solely online.

Their "owner":

Paul Sisson, MD of BuyMobileLimited - shirt sponsors of Derby County Football Club

In fact, Paul Sisson is the founder of A1 Comms and he has nothing to do with BuyMobileLimited.

Not only the founder is stolen from A1 Comms, but also the location. Do we need to say that the only acceptable payments are the ones done through Western Union or Money Gram?

This is (more or less) what the fake site looks like:

I trusted this site, although they are now called Natural Herbal Gardens, because we are desperate to help my husband who was diagnosed with ALS. The ALS "patient reviews" were all very positive, and we were naive enough to buy into it. Mostly because we didn't want to believe there are such evil people that would try and take advantage of people like us in our desperate situation. We sent $300 via Western Union to receive herbal remedies (after online chatting with one of their "experts" on their site). Within a few days, they sent me an email with very broken English stating the person we sent the Western Union transfer to was having a baby and we needed to change the recipients name. Red Alert. We didn't do that and are in the process of working with Western Union to rectify. When I sent them an email stating how disheartened I was that they would play off of people that are fighting for their lives, this was their exact response:

" You are a thief. Is this how you steal from shops in Canada? How can you not pay for a product and want it shipped ? I think you should be the one ashamed of yourself not us. You are greedy with a very bad attitude. If anything happens to your husband his blood will be on your hands. And hope you will be okay with yourself knowing you killed your husband over $300 CAD."

Please share as much as you can ... these people are beyond repulsive.
