Legit?????
says it started 1985 yet reistration for the domain was only 2005.
Every department uses the same telephone number.
Play with them nicely, then kill the site.... |

OK, perhaps my sarcasm should have been more obvious.
efias.net whois gives a yahoo.com address. Enough said.
I was more interested in how spanky was contacted. |

They also offer jobs, read as fake cheque/mule scam jobs:
Quote: |
JOB DESCRIPTION
You are supposed to transfer money from our partners in your country to our international representatives.
Your objective will be collection of money (via wire transfer, as a rule) and further transfer to international representatives of our company in different companies (via Western Union money transfer, as a rule). To get money you can use your bank account in any bank of your country. If you do not have any, you will have to open one before you start working (you may open several accounts). If you already have your bank account, you can use it to receive money.
To transfer money to international representatives of our company via Western Union money transfer it is enough for you to visit the nearest Western Union centre. To find the address and telephone of the nearest centre, please, visit www.westernunion.com and click "Find Agent Location".
Your salary will depend on the sum of the transactions you will operate. Your profit will make 5% from each transaction you will operate. The sum of one transaction generally does not exceed 5,000.00, so we can easily calculate, that being engaged only 2-3 times a week you will get minimum 2,000.00-2,500.00 per month. |

Efias.com is the real site, aboutfias.com is just a frame loading from the efias domain. Aboutfias.com needs to go as well. |

Just had a quick chat on YIM with one of the abuse department operatives at Gnax.net who host the www.efias.com domain:
Quote: |
Gnax Abuse Department: hello
SP: Hi, you are on the abuse team at gnax.net yes?
Gnax Abuse Department: yes i am
SP: good, I sent an abuse notification yesterday about this scammers site you are hosting: http://www.efias.com
Gnax Abuse Department: i remember seeing that, just a second please
SP: i didn't want to bother gnax by emailing them again, so I joined the forum to post it there also
SP: ok
Gnax Abuse Department: i did contact the server owner yesterday, and they responded
SP: this is a known scammer, he has another domain at a diffeent host as well, this is his other faker that is a frame from efias.com: http://www.aboutfias.com the same scammer also had this domain: http://e-fias.com and we had that closed down last October
Gnax Abuse Department: "Thank you for the notification. The client has been notified and the site will be removed promptly."
SP: they are also known to pay for their domain names and hosting with stolen credit cards
Gnax Abuse Department: i'll follow up again with the host to see what's going on
SP: thanks mate.
Gnax Abuse Department: np, this should all be resolved soon
SP: thanks for your help, the fakers have been added to the fake bank database on aa419.org: http://db.aa419.org/fakebanksview.php?key=11662
http://db.aa419.org/fakebanksview.php?key=11664
SP: see ya later |
[edit]
5 minutes later now and I just pinged www.efias.com and get:
Quote: |
Sorry, I could not determine the IP for www.efias.com (error 11004). |
The page is just blank and wont load, hopefully they just killed it now , and obviously the www.aboutfias.com wont load either now because of that, not heard back from their hosts yet. |

Efias is dead
Aboutfias isn't loading, but Netcraft still resolves. I wouldn't be surprised if the scammer moves the site there (if the host doesn't dead it first). |
