Hi
I am not sure where to post this , but here is the story :
A friend of mine owns an airline (JET EXPRESS -the same guy who wants to buy a 737-200 i posted a few days ago on the trading forum) ordered parts from a very well known firm here in the US (Aerojet.com) .
After sending a corporate order and wiring $13000 to Mr Nader SCHRUDER , the guy completely disappears and all of his contact numbers are disconnected .
I checked the company website and it turns out Aerojet is much bigger than just dealing spare parts , they actually work with NASA and the department of defense developing propulsion systems for missiles .
None of the numbers the guy gave matched the ones listed on Aerojets website , and aerojet does not have an office in Houston TX .
This got me thinking , this guy gets away with the money ,he also uses a very well known name in the aerospace industry to scam people .
What should we do ?
I'd appreciate your advices .
 
Unfortunately, this is becoming more and more common. Phishers - someone who misrepresents themselves as being from a legitimate company - are becoming more and more sophisticated.

I would also suggest contacting the Federal Trade Commission, as they are the organization charged with stopping fraud.

Contact the bank immediately, as they might be able to stop the payment, but most scammers in this day and age can have that money routed and gone. We watched a transaction occur in two minutes from legitimate source to untouchable account; as soon as the transaction started, it traveled faster than we could act against it.
 
I'd even go as far as contacting AeroJet as well to let them know this guy is out there. Companies don't take too kindly to people using their company name/brand to defraud people. They probably won't be able to help you, but they might want to assist with the investigation.
 
I bet the lil scumbag will enjoy his success and return after letting it cool for a couple weeks.
Contacting the company will prolly indicate this isn't the first time.
It's buyer beware out there,....
 
Also, I googled the guys name and he certainly isn't a ghost. His linkedIn profile has him as "Owner at Cardinal Air Inc." though the full name on this one is Nader Schruder Sabouri.


I'm guessing the post on this site is you or the owner: http://phoneowner.info/Number.aspx/7133732616. If not, someone else got scammed as well. There are also a few addresses attached to his name in the results from the google search as well as ownership of a learjet. Obviously, you can't believe everything you see on the internet, but all of those results are leads that you can follow up on if you desire to do so you can pound this guy. I think letting the police and FBI handle it is the better choice though.
 
It's also possible that Mr Nader Schruder had his identity stolen by whoever scammed you so don't hire any assassins yet. This is all good information though for whichever law enforcement/government agency you choose to report it to.
