Yet another imposter - not to be confused with the legitimate company F H & J Alviti Ltd who have posted a warning about the scam imposters on their website here

http://frankalviti.co.uk

To avoid any confusion

Frank Alviti Ltd using the website frank-alviti.com are scammers and impostors

F H & J Alviti Ltd using the website frankalviti.co.uk are the legitimate company with no association with the scam set up.


It is a disgrace that scammers are allowed to set up and maintain these fraudulent website with ease, and it's compounded when they are able to steal business from from targeted companies and launder the money through fraudulently set up accounts with UK banks. This harms the UK economy, UK businesses and people who might be employed by legitimate businesses, not to mention the companies who lose money believing they're dealing with the legitimate business.

This has reached epidemic proportions. Do the police or the government have a policy or strategy ? Do they know ?

Bizarrely the scam website has a heading "riversvale" on its Google entry.

The Bobcat S100 advertised on the scam website comes from

http://www.tradecarview.com/used_car/japan%20car/other+all/other+all/11529117/photo/?sid=300&pn=0

The seller is located in Japan. :shock:

CAR ADVERTS - If a car seller mentions escrow - he's scamming you Never ever for any reason pay anything until you have seen and inspected the vehicle
