I was contacted my a person via an investment website claiming to be ROMAN BASARGIN. He claims that he is a broker or represents the INTERROS group and VLADIMIR POTANIN.
I was told that he would like to invest in my project after he reviewed it. He sent over contracts, letters of intent etc that looked legit. I thought I had done plenty of due diligence after he sent a copy of his passport and finding him on significant sites such as linkedin and others.
I wired a "surety bond" fee which was requested. I thought I would be ok after receiving usernames and passwords which checked out and allowed me to see the money in an account in China. After attempting to tranfer the money from the Bank of Dalian in China, I was told that I had to pay an additional surety bond fee in and that the China bank regulatory commission froze the account. This is where I started to question him and the entire process (scheme).
After this, I was told that he is moving back to Russia and that a new account manager will be contacting me. This was a month ago and I still havent heard from anyone. I call and email Roman several times a day with no response. Its becoming apparent that it was all a big scam.
I am curious if anyone else has had similiar experiences with this person or the bank of Dalian. After additional research I have found fraudulent information on the Bank of Dalian.
I appreciate any insight or info on this person. I hope no one else gets taken advantage and also sincerely hope that this person is caught and has to pay for screwing over hard working innocent people.
