Citrus Finance or CroftBros.biz SCAM ALERT!

October 18, 2007 - 12:59pm | author: Invotech25 |

SCAM WARNING!

Can Citrus Finance a.k.a. CroftBros.biz really produce 1111% or a staggering 4444% in 4 days?

I certainly don't believe it, so we will look at them a little ‘in depth’ and see why we should probably leave them alone.

Here is some evidence that alarms me and makes me believe that this is a scam, but take a look and decide for yourself:

EXHIBIT A:

First we have their ridiculously high and unbelievable payout rates:

$200-$2000 = 1111% after 4 days

$2001-$5000 = 2222% after 4 days

$5001-$20,000 = 3333% after 4 days

$20,001-$100,000 = 4444% after 4 days

EXHIBIT   B:

UK Company Number of 3428934 as per this certificate of incorporation found on their site looks genuine enough doesn't it? Now compare this with Exhibit C.

 

EXHIBIT C:

I retrieved some information on the company which I checked against the number.

All I found was the name & Registered Office of a long since dissolved UK company with the same number. This was found through a FREE webcheck of Companies House names and numbers past, present and proposed. This is something I recommend doing anytime a HYIP presents a UK company number to try and reassure you that they are a real and legitimate organisation.

Here are the details of the REAL company that was assigned that number:

As for the evidence presented, it was enough to alert me to a potential scam, in fact it seems pretty clear cut given what I have shown you.

If you really want too, take a look at their website and see for yourself then decide if you really 100% want to risk losing the money!

Not that there aren't always risks in investment, but that risk is minimised by simple due diligence that return findings similar to those presented here that can allow you to make an educated guess about whether it is a good idea or not.

I am personally advising against investing in Citrus Finance (a.k.a. CroftBros.biz) but all others are entitled to their own opinion and freedom to choose otherwise.

Beware of this company and others like it! ALWAYS DO YOUR RESEARCH!

RE : Citrus Finance or CroftBros.biz SCAM ALERT!

these guys are probably working with this
new domain name corallo-diamond.com and they probably have multiple web pages. 2 weeks ago I got exited and invested $400 thought it would be real but no lost money the second I sent it to them…

Week ago I emailed them this massage and I’m posting it all over the internet so others will see and not lose money like I did.
