10 million barrels a month!

10 million barrels a month to an entity unheard of? Can these scams get any better? Everyone wants to claim to represent NNPC these days to swindle the next victim they can find... 😆

Impersonating Novatek!

I would rate this scammer a 2/10. I mean, at least get the logo of the organisation correct before attempting to impersonate a fuel supplier? I didn't know #Novatek were a recycling company...

Laughable by the standards of fraud that we have seen in this space. 😆

Iraq's State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO)

For all the acclaimed 'allocations' with SOMO for their Basrah Crude Oil sales, an official but simple check with SOMO directly can confirm the legitimacy of your source of supply... sadly, many choose not to do so and end up getting scammed or dealing with time wasters.

I mean, how hard is it to find out the official website of SOMO?

Seriously, is it that difficult to do some due diligence? 😅

The Gazprom Neft clip-art

Yet another 'offer to supply petroleum products', this one claiming to represent Gazprom Neft 😎 

Header looks like a poorly done up clip-art from Microsoft PowerPoint, that free email addy (damn right Gazprom are gonna use Yandex mailboxes!) and facilitator jargon says it all.

There seems to be an interest to misrepresent mainly Russian oil companies, possibly because it is one of the hardest places on earth to do any real business so it makes these scammers look like they have access to prized possessions on-hand to cheat the naive.

Someone should seriously fish out these buggers and put them all behind bars for the intention to commit fraud 😁
