Fraudster: Juragan Mbako

Juragan Mbako fraud

Summary of the Fraud Research

An order was received on March 17, 2015. Order was for a large number of Petzl Carabiners. These are not something that sells in this quantity so the order was flagged for research. Just a couple weeks later the order was marked as fraudulent by processor. The Email address “Juragan@SafetyBOS.com” was pinged  & didn’t bounce. Our email was never replied to. The domain “SafetyBOS” was slurped from SafetyBOSS.com. A call was placed to Safety Boss, alerting them to the cloned site. A followup email was sent to SafetyBoss.com letting them know of the details. An ICANN fraud complaint was launched & the site was removed.

The WHOIS information revealed that the SafetyBOS site was hosted from somewhere outside Jakarta, Indonesia. This matches the name “Juragan Mbako” from a brief Facebook search for the name… most of the owners of that name are from indonesia.

A search was done on the order’s billing & shipping information. These were actually the same with this one. Turns out the address belongs to a company that does virtual office space. Someone is renting an office, “FI 25” at this location & committing internet fraud.

Fraudster: Angela Lim

Angela Lim” of Singapore

The street check failed on this one but that’s not totally uncommon. An order going to Singapore is also not uncommon. The “Customer” emailed us, requesting to pay via a manual CC run. We refused and sent her an invoice she could use a CC to pay online via PayPal. She refused to pay via PayPal, claiming she lost $ using PayPal. She then went through the website to place the order. She even “negotiated” the shipping method, claiming that USPS charges too much in duties (not true but whatever). The card was reported stolen to the CC company just a few days after the transaction went through.
