You must mean WesternForce.biz, not .com - they claim to have been around since 1999 but the domain was only registered in May 2005. Now, WesternForce.biz appears to be a blatant rip-off of westernbid.com which has been around since 2001. The domain contacts and business contact addresses are fake or copied from elsewhere. Several other sites are hosted at the same location, all look like scams: * www.Acecheckexpress.org * www.Aliserio.net * www.Anico24.com * www.Bflogistics.biz * www.Cyb-security.net * www.Goldchanging.com * www.Idelivery.biz * www.Info-dumps.com * www.Instamess.com * www.Ir-company.com * www.Lexusik.com * www.Maksikjob.com * www.Nothingpersonal.biz * www.Oesteoferta.biz * www.Sh0ping.net * www.Synebs.com * www.Tylersgroup.com * www.Wa-corp.com * www.Westernforce.biz * www.Transfer-express.biz Source: http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?p=70095#post70095 Dynamoo is doing an excellent job locating these sites. So is Joe Wein @ www.joewein.de |

I saw an ad for Western Force and answered it. Except in my case, I am doing the mail packaging. I just received my first 3 packages yesterday and was emailed the USPS shipping labels this morning. ALL of my packages are going to the same person in Russia and all 3 packages are high end cameras WITHOUT lenses. I have not processed these packages, and have emailed Alex Hoffman as to why I have 6 USPS labels per box and why are all 3 of these cameras going to the same person in Russia. The BBB had nothing on this company, but I find it highly odd that none of these cameras have lenses and they show on invoices from the manufacturer as being hundreds of dollars yet the value on the USPS shipping labels is 1/5th of the invoice price. Does anyone have any SOLID proof about this company? I noticed that you can no longer access their website - my friend was told the "server was down." Also, a question for Scrub - the "WHOIS" information you post on these sites - what is that information actually saying about the site? I was just curious as I keep seeing that information posted and wasn't sure what it was alluding to. At any rate, I am not going to maile these packages - I might just mail them back to Mr. Hoffman - I've already sent him an email inquiring WHY all of the boxes are going to the same person and why the value listed of the merchandise is so much less than invoice price. I don't want to get into anything illegal. Does anyone know how I go about reporting this company for legal investigation? |

I filed a complaint with the FBI this weekend (to their Internet Crime division) and sent Mr. Hoffman an email stating I wanted nothing more to do with his company and that I was sending the packages back to where they came from. Just for everyone else, this was Alex Hoffman's response: Maybe you have forgotten, but I remind. You sign a contract so you should recieve and send us OUR parcels! You have 24 hours to recieve and send us the parcels. After that period of time we will have our lawyers to collect required documents and file a complain into your local police department and federal law enforcements. If you want to quit please let us know before (2 weeks). Alex. I don't know how they are going to come after me, but I've kept all my documentation and haven't shipped anything out. I also went to the FBI complaint site (thanks for having that posted) and I hope to hear from the FBI sooner as opposed to later. I don't want this company coming after me, but I don't want to mail anything out and get in trouble with law enforcement either. |

Responding to your posts asking about Western Force, Inc and, yes, I have heard of them...and worked for them. I discovered they are a scam outfit buying goods with fraudulently obtained credit cards and then have them shipped overseas. They also pay the freight forwarders using counterfeit checks. When I found out, I quit. I believe as of 7/14 they were shut down by unknown parties. Their website is unaccessible now and my last communication with the perps was through a yahoo e address instead of the original through their website. I was in contact with the FBI about the company, but their only action was to say "don't do it, it's PROBABLY a scam", and they didn't want to take a report on them. I think they're inundated with these types of scams and don't have the manpower. Hope this helps. Duncan |
