I have myself come across such a scam. Thank god I did not fall prey to it.

First I recd an enquiry from a company based in UK from a yahoo id. He enquired about my product.

Send me a BIG enquiry, I quoted, He negotiated for 2 days, even called couple of times, then asked for drawings.

Then confirmed the order, sent me a scanned copy with all details like PO number, payment terms (that was 80% advance) and other details.

Also got a call from Nigeria office to confirm the price and all.

Then they come forward with the gameplan.

As per them, my company is not registered and they need registration fees to process the order and send advance.

This is was their gameplan to ask for USD 1000 or something against an order of USD 2 Million.

People please be careful.. u cant trust these kalia's..
