Request of payment of advance fees to an individual via Western Union = FRAUD. It's that simple.
Banks don't use mobile phones and free email addresses and neither do Governments. It's all fake including their documents. This type of fraud is extremely common in Cameroon. Please read the article at the following link for more details.

NEW SCAM FROM CAMEROON ?
Good day,

Fist of all, thanks to fraudwatchers !

i received the email below from a company in Cameroon, please tell me if it is a scam

Dear Sir/madam,


Good day.Your company product was made to us through a business partner as a manufacturer of Food products etc. of which our company is very interested to establish a good business relationship with your company.

Our company VETERCAM S.A we deals on Food items ,health care product and pet food

We want your company to send your company product details for us to study.

Thanks


Mr George Kent / CEO

VETERCAM S.A
RUE NJO NJO BONAPRISO
DOUALA CAMEROON
TEL. 237 95330180

After one or two replies, they sent me some documents (see attached) before I asked anything. And these documents do not seem original: mis-spelling of "CAMEROON" (They wrote CMAEROON)... a bit strange for an official document, the stamps are PERFECT when zooming on it...

Please let me know !

thanks !

Alexis

Misspellings (of the country name) , lack of capitalization("peace" in the motto), and clip art that's been squashed almost beyond recognition (The coat of arms has been resized to fit the template, probably... see http://www.ngw.nl/int/afr/cm-nat.htm). No matter how good the stamps are, they're not legitimate documents.

All you would need is one high quality scan of the stamps on a real document and a fairly basic word processor to reproduce that. Someone with a decent understanding of Photoshop could probably even convert the stamps image to a brush and easily put it on any fakes they produce.

The stamps are pretty impressive work, but the other flaws point to fake.

VETERCAM is a fake company and the documents are equally fake as you suspected. I remove them because other scammer may use them in their frauds, for that reason it's best to watermark such documents with big red letters "FAKE" to render them unusable.

You can see copies of fake Cameroon documents here

Thanks both for your answer !

Nula, it is actually because the stamps were too perfect that I started having some doubts ! Normally the ink should run a bit..

I have also been contacted by another scammer: DALLARX INTERNATIONAL in Benin. They did not ask me money yet, but it should arrive soon ! apparently I need an export permit to send goods to Benin ! )

Sorry for the document without the mention "fake", I just did not want to accuse them without being sure !

The documents appear to be blanks they simply filled and applied fake stamps to. You shouldn't attach too much importance to documents whether real or not because in Cameroon you can be scammed by a registered company just as easily as a non-existent one. Some even use real Cameroon bank account for transfer of the advance fees. Corruption is such that scammers have little to fear of the police or the courts. Prosecutions are extremely rare.

Hon. Paul Atanga is the Min. in Charge of Special Duties at the Presidency and has nothing to do with this scam. A real government official will not be conducting business with a free webmail address and mobile phone number, even in Cameroon!

The CPDM has been used in at least this other scam that may be found in this thread,

None of the companies mentioned can be found on the Cameroon Chamber of Commerce website;

Tyre sealant enquiry - scam?
These are emails received from someone claiming to be part of an organisation who work with the Transport Ministry in Cameroon, and expressing interest in importing tyre sealant as a safety aid. I could not find them online in any searches.
It seems like a scam to me but I would appreciate your views; the first email was unsolicited (I have not included our replies but the CEO is planning to send sample drums of material for trial if it is genuine) -

sir
we will like you know we are interested in the distribution of your **** products in cameroon.africa we will like you to give us all information and quotation condition.
Best regards

Dear Sir;
we thank you for the documents that you have sent to us. we have already made engagements with Ministry of Transport for the homologation of the **** products.

The ministry has given us a number of conditions to be fulfilled viz:

1. must deposit a caution amount of 40000 Euros
2. these products must be presented here,tested and confirmed for the homologation process.
Should that be the case;these products will be used and consummed on a compulsory bases by all the users in Cameroon.

at this point; we would like to know your own opinion about your own contribution on the homologation process.

we look forward to read from you.

(At that point we expressed surprise about the upfront payment)

Best Regards

Dear Sir,

concerning the letter, we sent this letter for you inorder to make you understand that we have an association which works within the road safety domain, this is to give an idea of our collaboration with the Ministry of Transport about Road Safety. so this letter does not concern the homologation process!!
(enclosed was an official-looking general letter in French, purporting to be from the Ministry of Transport, but addressed to a different association name)

Dear Sir,
Merryxmass
With regards to the €40,000, National Security Administration will deposit the amount. Just to remind you that the African Market (Cameroon, Nigeria, Gabon Congo, Central African Republic, Chad and Equitorial Guinea) is a good one for the **** products.

We are thinking of developing a marketing system.

Best Regards.

Dear Sir,

thanks for the email!

1) for the moment it is not necessary for any members of your company to come here in Cameroon but will be invited to come here after the homologation process if possible.

2) we here will need just six gallons at least 25 litres for the homologation test .

3) after the homologation, we (national security admnistration) will sign with the government an accord for the tyre safety for ten (10) years in Cameroon.

4) we do also require your copies of test documentation.

5) National Security Administration will have to deposit this amount (40,000 Euros) to the Government here.

the amount the Government asking from us is because these products are going to be consummed on a compulsory bass by all users.

we would like this whole process to be fast .

Best Regards

(we asked for a proper address for couriering the drums - he has not addressed that point in the following latest reply)
Dear Sir,

thanks once more for the email!

i just want to inform you that i will also be travelling by the end of January 2011 to Saoudi Arabia for about two months.

concerning the samples to be sent, we had earlier discussed with the Government officials that is why we wish to have those six drums as we earlier informed you!.

if we could all participate regarding the cost of sending those 6 drums here, we believe that it could further accelerate the process.

we would like to have your opinion on this case concerning how much we could contribute towards the sending of those 4 drums.

with regards to your invitation we need that the Government here should approve the homologation process before we can invite you guys here.

please do not forget to send us those documents!!

attached to this message is an aggreement of road safety

The National Security Administration NSA is a U.S. Department, there is no such entity in Cameroon. "+237 9xxxxxxx" are mobile numbers. Governments don't conduct official business using anonymous mobile phones and yahoo accounts and that goes for Cameroon also.

These criminals are simply trying to trick you into paying useless and endless fees. Please read the article here for more details: viewtopic.php?f=40&t=14268

Cameroon Government Contract Bidding Scam
The Cameroon Tender Board is definitely frauds. I have received almost the same letter, in my case they wanted to by our furniture. All our "business corespondents" lasted almost 3 month, and when we have finally "win this contract" they say that we going to pay some "registry fee", to proceed. I have wrote him a replay:

"Dear Mr Geoffrey.
Your last letter, in which you propose to our company to pay you a percentage of (0,1) of the total value of all contracts for services not understand the registration of our company, etc. BEFORE we receive payment under this contract looks very suspicious.

This is very similar to the famous scheme of speculators: "Pay me a little bit and I'll pay you a lot more".

Our company has repeatedly participated in various tenders in Ukraine, including the government, and we know perfectly well that to participate in the tender no cash payments are not needed, especially AFTER the tender, we have already won.

In any case, even if your bidding rules require such payments, it does not coincide with our company policy. We never pay money in advance for unspecified goods or services, so even without the guarantee of receiving something in return.

If this payment is needed, and you really need our furniture, we are ready to make that payment, but only after the entire amount of the contract will go into our account, since allocate the money from our other orders, or our own personal profit, we can not.

---Then he replay back to me:

Dear Alex
Goodday and thanks for your mail well noted, i have checked with the committee and understand what you mean, do understand that the registration fee is not something strange or unusual as its good that you have participated in tenders in ukraine and you know that all tenders are registered which a registration fee is paid as that is not any strange issue but reliable tenders registration fee is only required to be paid by the winner if you win the contract to be sure that you are not doing any unsure business,

also the committee said that they have given you the documentations of the contract as well as confirmation of the reliability of the order so you should not be sceptical in anyway as the registration fee is all you need to pay and i will handle all other issues here as the registration is not payable by any third party except the contractor if not i would have paid it for your firm, besides you can deduct that from my commission also so dont delay as we have worked hard to get this contract and i dont expect delays from your end to avoid the other companies that have lost taking back the contract.

---And me again:

Dear Mr Geoffrey.
Yes, we have received all documents from the committee.

But our position with respect to the registration fee remains unchanged. In this situation, we can proceed as follows: you send this amount (0.1%) to our bank account or by bank transfer Western Union, and we send those money back to the committee as fast as we can.

Later, after we get to prepay for the whole order, we'll credit you the full amount of your commission + the amount you transferred to us for registration payment. Thus, we will not deduct this amount from your commission.


-- After this last latter they simply stop to replaying, so don't even think pay to this scams!!! Here the email and other contacts of this scams:

Cameroon Government Contract Bidding Scam
Thanks and you too, you're doing a really good thing, exposing all of these scams!

By the way today this scam have replay me again:

Looks like i am his last hope to earn some money I have replay to him back:

Heh, looks like you've known scammer on fraudwatchers.org

All this time you wasted on trying to extract money from us, you could spend on legal business, and earn much more than 1777 euros for 3 months

So it is enough to waste my time if you do not feel sorry for yours.
I wish you finally get what you REALLY deserve!

P.S. Oh, and with the arithmetic of you there, too bad: 0.1% of the amount of $1,777,000 is $1,777, not the euro.

Cheers!

Does anyone know these companies?
I have received ooferes from some companies in Cameroon. All of them are asking for a down payment of 30~40% and offere CIF prices where we can not have any control of the shipment.

When I am asking for FOB shipment and payment after they issue a Bill of Lading nobody is accepting.

These are the companies:

Hello unregistered,

You've answered your own question....all of them want advance fees in such way that leaves your money unsecured. They're all scams.

Scrap Addict Inc
22 Apa Road/Ndobo
Douala Cameroon.
Tel: 00237-77448900

Googling their mobile phone detail gives these other scams.

Alucam Scrap Exporters Co. LTD
142 boulevard de la Republique
Douala Cameroon.Zone industrial.Bassa
Tel; 0023722613916

Googling their phone contact gives these other scams.

Metal World Co.Ltd
1200 Ekok Road Mamfe
South West Region
Cameroon.
Phone: 00237-98366534

Here is another scam offer using the same address.

SAURECYCLING, S.L.
AVENIDA DE LA VEGA (P ARROYO VEGA) 1
ALCOBENDAS (MADRID) 28108
AQSIQ Number:A724090096
Tel :0034 605 549 287

The telephone is that of a mobile phone. The contact details show a location in Madrid. Here is another ad with the same phone contact showing different company, but in Valencia.

All of them scams.
