is a fake BG provider and Bruce Green, CEO of Agreementswas acted as the CEO of Secure Platform Funding. This guy has posted about BG/ SBLC in some online forums and social networking sites. He is a scammer and criminal. On contacting Bruce Green they have been asked to place Escrow Deposit with an International Attorney who is a Graduate of Yale University, has been practicing law since 1966, is currently registered with the Supreme Court Bar, has served as a Lawyer in London England and New York USA and has served the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland and this Law Firm is really fake and big time fraud.

Initially they have asked to place escrow deposit in an a/c in the name of such Law Firm After receiving the deposit, Bruce Green asked for additional money to issue BG and for this purpose they have issued a draft of BG issued by HSBC UK. Also they have arranged a confirmation mail from HSBC and later on HSBC confirmed that the BG document and the mail- both are fake and a big scam. HSBC advised to file a complaint with UK police. Now when they contacted the Law Firm to refund the deposit, there is no reply from these guys.

The website of http://www.secureplatformfunding.com/ look genuine but they are fake. There are some photos and profiles added with the web page of http://www.secureplatformfunding.com/ and all these guys are big time frauds (don’t know the photos are somebody else’s).

This Case Study features an investor who starts investing $500,000 USD in the Secure Platform Funding... Deposit Refund Protection Program (DRP), then completes Managed Bank Guarantee Program (MBG) and then takes the Profit he makes from the Managed Bank Guarantee Program and invests it in our Private Placement Program (PPP) to gain a consistent Monthly income.


I'm sorry to have to tell you but this is complete drivel and wouldn't fool anyone with any financial competence.

The Private Placement Program has historically averaged around 65% return on invested capital each month. Here is the breakdown of the Investors complete monthly return including all costs………

Final Net income Balance due to be paid to the Investor Monthly = $16,857,750

The Investor therefore earns: $3.89M a week


You must have been introduced to this scheme by someone, because nothing on the website has any credibility, and that's probably the best place to start finding out what's happened to your money.

The suggestion that there is a market in bank guarantees is simply silly, compounded by the site claiming that it is neither a bank nor a broker. It claims to consist of 'bank insiders' which is meaningless.

One of the most incredible clauses I have ever seen in what is supposed to be a financial document.

I hereby represent that I am not an informant, nor am I associated with any government agency of the United States of America, or any other country, such as the Secret Service, Internal Revenue Service, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Central Intelligence Agency, Securities and Exchange Commission, Banking Commission, Interpol, any countries Financial Market Authority, nor any agency whose purpose is to gather information regarding such transactions or offerings.


(I also note that their spelling and punctuation isn't what you'd expect from professional 'bank insiders')

:laugh-s:

It couldn't be made any clearer that what is being offered is illegal under US and International law, not that what is being offered even exists as a traded security on international markets.

Of course such a clause would have no effect against any investigatory/regulatory authority anyway so including it has no effect other than to evidence that it is a scam.

If anyone buys this site to use as a vehicle for scamming they're going to have a hard job selling it to victims.

Just had a rather hilarious encounter with these guys in this Removed (BW)

Anyway, here's an update from Nevis at:
nevisfsrc.com/advisories-2/warnings/371-secure-platform-funding



Wow, been a member here for a few years and this is my first post. :oh-joy:

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

The following are excerpts of an email that was forwarded to me by the owner of another anti-scam website who has had contact with the scammers.

From Bruce Green: CEO of Agreements - [email protected]

1/ The Nevis post is 100% Wrong, read the facts here: https://www.secureplatformfunding.com/nevis-fsrc-facts/

2/ ZERO outbound calls have been made on the phone number you list as a scammer number so the allegation that that phone number is associated with a scam is wrong!


We don’t have anything to hide....


Here's the content of their response to the Nevis FSRC warning:

The statement issued by the Nevis Financial Services Regulatory Commission on the 7th September 2016 is completely wrong and we have engaged a Law Firm in Nevis to correct the statements made by the commission. The Nevis Financial Services Regulatory Commission did not contact us prior to publishing their statement and their statement occurred solely as a result is miscommunication because they mistakenly searched the Nevis companies database for our brand name “Secure Platform Funding” and they found no registration because they never searched under our “company name” If they had of searched under our Nevis “company name” they would have found:

We are legally registered entity in Nevis and we have all the Nevis companies office documents to prove it.
The Registered address of our Nevis company has been Springates Building, Government Road, Charlestown, Nevis for the last 2 years and is still that address today!
There is no requirement for our business to be licensed in Nevis because our business operation does not fall within the definition of companies that require a financial services license in Nevis which is confirmed on the Nevis Financial Services Regulatory Commission website and by our Nevis Attorney.
Secure Platform Funding Truth1
It is disappointing that the Commission chose to issue a statement without taking the time to contact us and confirm the facts. Please feel free to contact us here with any further questions or information.


So "Bruce", I'm sure that you are reading this and as you claim on your website to have nothing to hide, here are some questions for you to answer.

1. Why does your company hide its identity by using the fake name Secure Platform Funding - legitimate companies have no problem detailing who they are on their website (in fact in most countries, this is a legal requirement). Only those that are up to something dodgy hide behind fake names to try and mislead their clients.

2. Exactly where are the staff that answer your UK phone number actually based and if it is outside of the UK, why are you again misleading your clients by pretending to be based in the UK?

3. On your website, you say "We Issue BGs (Bank Guarantees) and SBLCs (Standby Letters of Credit) from Rated Top 100 Banks". I am sure that these banks will be more than happy to confirm your good standing and your arrangement with them, so please provide us with your contacts at one of the following banks - HSBC, Barclays, BNP, UBS, Credit Suisse or Deutsche Bank, who can verify your claims.

If you aren't able to register and post your reply, then I am sure that you can mail it to our admin as I know you've already been bombarding him with your nonsense emails.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

Brought a IB from them and this was a skype chat with Bruce Green the boss of SPF.

[15:18:22] KM: Bruce, a client I have has been doing some DD and has heard that you have be unable to deliver on some BG/SBLC in resents months, can you help me out here as I would like to put this deal to bed..
[15:20:02] Secure Platform Funding: You would be wise not to believe gossip spread by jealous competitors
[15:22:55] KM: I understand you, but this is a potentially who has concerns moving forward, is there anything you might suggest
[15:39:34] Secure Platform Funding: Keith, we are issuing sblcs from Citibank in new York today! Give me details of who is making the statements, what they are saying and i will happily address them directly
[15:42:57] KM: I will see what I can get... can you provide any evidence to support what you have just said, as I am sure that would help
[15:44:34] Secure Platform Funding: Keith, we have nothing to prove, we are the Worlds #1 Financial Instrument website, you have provided no name, no specifics, no email, no phone, nothing but a random wild accusation made up by an anonymous party
[15:58:56] KM: Sorry Bruce, I just have a client, who has asked me a simple question after they have said their DD shown a problem. a suitable reductive copy of a Citibank sblc I sure move things on easily.
[16:00:27] Secure Platform Funding: We have no application from you, when we do get an application it will have to be vetted and approved by our compliance department
[16:07:23] KM: Well if you cant assist me in providing a simple suitable reductive copy, You will be right in thinking that I won't be getting an application form for you to vet.. This IB agreement I have doesn't seem mutually beneficial at assisting me over any hurdles
[16:09:15] Secure Platform Funding: That's fine Keith, please find another provider, I wish you all the best
[16:10:06] KMs: so you have taken my money and now tell me to piss off?

This does not a company I will be forwarding any clients to...

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH SECURE PLATFORM FUNDING, BG/SBLC SCAM

This company has been pretending to give out fake bank guarantees worth several million euros, promising them for a little incentive of just a few thousand euros worth of REAL money. I got duped into thinking I could get legitimate BG through them – they presented me with some legitimate-looking documentation which I am 80% sure now is either fake or edited, and they pretend to be white hat knights by framing other companies in the industry as fraudsters and scam artists while defrauding people themselves with a flimsy website, fake company and mismatching address + telephone number.

DO NOT do business with Mr. Bruce Green, who contacted me through Secure Platform Funding:

[email protected]
https://www.secureplatformfunding.com

He told me he could get me a Bank Guarantee through the Bank of Bahrain, giving me documentation of other transfers he’s made, SWIFT documents, etc. – but after I sent them € 40.000 into an escrow account, I failed to ever get the bank instruments I was promised. Their telephone number +44-203-808-9841 is a UK-based number but their address is in Nevis, which has a totally different country code, and their number happens to be shared by other fake businesses. I even found out later on that they originally had a UK address in London which turned out to be fake.

They claim their business started in 2008 on their website but their domain is barely two years old and their online presence is entirely fabricated, how can an almost decade-old business in the international banking scene only exist online for two years with no real documentation linking them or Bruce Green to legitimate institutions, the Bank of Bahrain or any regulatory bodies? This company is a scam, and I DEMAND my money back. Do not do business with Secure Platform Funding

Bank Instrument Providers Secure Platform Funding Spreading FALSE Information, Scamming People!

So to anyone who hasn’t already heard about it, please be wary of https://www.secureplatformfunding.com/, Mr. Bruce Green, and anyone from that company trying to contact you for whatever reason. Plenty of people have tried to buy financial instruments or receive funding from them, and more often than not all that this has created is a situation where people are left paying thousands of dollars while waiting for an investment that is never coming. It’s a scam, and a lot of people have paid dearly because of it:

In an attempt to throw people off track, SPF likes to say that anything negative about the company is a result of “jealous competitors”, yet really they’re the ones in the habit of slandering the competition, posting false accusations online against legitimate institutions in order to gain the confidence of their would-be victims:


Secure Platform Funding is a scam. Their website is a dead giveaway – for one of the “largest and greatest” in the industry, it’s suspect that they’re using a low-quality website on a shared server while doing all they can to hide their information. They don’t have a real physical address and have had to change their fake location twice, once because they don’t exist in the UK at all and again because the financial authorities at Nevis recognized them for the scam they are. Do NOT do business with these people, and if you’re on one of their lists, notify people that they are slandering their competitors.
