Sodicom Gold Mine Scam

 

Warning!

 

Do NOT deal with Sodicom Gold Mine/Sodicom Corporation and Ali Kieta and Camara Tierouna in Burkina Faso/Mali!

 

It is a total SCAM! You WILL lose your money!!

 

It is an elaborate and fraudulent scam. The website gives you the impression the company has substance and is a serious Gold seller. It is a Lie.

We learned the hard way!

 

They will insist you pay the taxes for the initial shipment and then they say they will ship CIF afterwards. They will NEVER ship in the first place.

They said the minimum shipment is 50kg. 6.5% tax on 50kg is about US$ 65,000!!

We had to go to Burkina and supervise the shipment. We did this but there were issues so the gold could not ship before we had to leave..it never shipped after. They stole the money!!

 

The whole operation is a scam.

 

Go to their website: www.sodicomgoldmines.com

 

The website is cleverit makes you think they are genuine. They even have a Fraud alert on it!!!

 

Go to the Management/Staff page.

 

All these supposed high profile and experienced Directors and Chairman.

None of these people really exist!!

Search Google for any of them.NOTHING will be found! Save your moneycheck them outNONE of them can be found anywhere!!

 

If the Chairman, McMillan Stephen Mclean actually existed.dont you think you would find him somewhere on Google???

He is supposed to have 25 years experience in the mining industry. He is the President of Guinea Gold Corporation check that out.a LIE

He is also supposed to serve as the Chairman of CED Gold Association and the Chairman of KMP Gold, a public company controlled by Guinea National Gold and listed in CEDEO, ABIDJAN more LIES. Check it out yourself!   He is not listed anywhere!  

Camara Tierouna..we have a copy of a Passport with this name on it. The passport has no Date of Birth! Have you ever seen a Passport with no DOB? The person masquerading as Tierouna is a con man and lier. He is supposed to hold an MBA from Queens University in Kingston , Ontario another LIE..check it out.  

Ali Kieta.the front man for the operation..is at the date of this posting (Sept 2009) in prison in Burkina Faso, yet they continue to use this name and if you contact them.you will hear from Ali Kieta.   

We took legal action against Sodicom and the Ali Kieta we were dealing with went to prison.yet there is still another Ali Kieta fronting the fraud and scam..

  If you want to be ripped of and lose your money in a gold scam.then deal with Sodicom Gold Mine/Sodicom Corporation.  

Contact me on the email shown.we have volumes of information on these scammers!!!  

DO NOT pay them any money.because you will NEVER see it again and you will NOT get any gold!!

  They are criminals and thieves and liars.  

We were put onto them by another criminal accomplice of theirwatch out for this criminal too:  

His name is Ababakar Ba .he claims to be in the Ukraine .  

His company is DANILCHENKO O.O (Support Export LTD)  these are his details

Ababakar Ba claims to be the sellers representative,,,but he is on the scam and fraud.

He assures you many times it is genuine. He says it is not a scam. He provides comforting statements about how Sodicom is the only genuine seller and how they perform. Ababbakar Ba and DANILCHENKO are criminals and thieves.  

We contact him about Diamonds too..same story.must go to the mine and pay the taxes.they want you to go to the mine so it looks credible.you pay the taxes.6.5% which can be tens of thousands of dollarsand nothing will be shipped!  

Ababakar Ba got involved by pressuring us with numerous phone calls when we realized it was a scam and refused to pay more money.  

They tell you the gold is ready to be shipped.then there will be some kind of problemso you need to send more moneythen there is another problemand you need to send more money!!!  

SODICOM GOLD MINE and SODICOM CORPORATION and ALI KIETA and CAMARA TIEROUNA and ABABAKAR BA are ALL CRIMINALS and FRAUDS and SCAMS.  

You have been warned.You WILL Lose you money!!  

Contact me on niclu at ozemail.com.au if you want more information.  

As I saidwe have volumes of it..we have taken legal action and has one of the Ali Kieta arrested and he is in prison.but the scam continues!!  

If you go ahead and deal with these criminals and scams after reading this.you only have yourself to blame!!! You will lose your money!!!  

They say a smart person learns from their mistakes..but a SMARTER person learns from the mistakes of others!!!

This is Totally Untrue and Defamatory. It was ME who was scammed!

This is a totally untrue and defamatory posting. It was ME who was scammed!

In 2009 my company, V-Funding had a contract with one of the largest refineries in the USA to supply gold.

We engaged with an outfit called Sodicom SARL, based in Burkina Faso, Africa. They turned out to be a total scam, and I lost a LOT of money. I was obviously unhappy, so I initiated a number of posts about them on the internet to warn others.

You can see my initial post in Rip-Off Report, dated 17 September, 2009 here:

http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/Ali-Kieta-Sodicom-Gold-Mine-Sodicom-Corporation/internet/Ali-Kieta-Sodicom-Gold-Mine-Sodicom-Corporation-Sodicom-Gold-mine-Sodicom-Corporation-Sadi-496728

I also posted on Scam.com on the same date:

scam.com/showthread.php?t=120911

In the post I went to lengths to warn everyone about their fraudulent and criminal activity.

They retaliated a few days later in efforts to discredit me by posting in a number of online media, and made wild and libellous accusations about me – one of which you see here.

I was ultimately successful in my quest. I took legal action and had one of the ring leaders arrested. You will note the website I warn people about in the post sodicomgoldmines.com no longer exists, so justice was served in some bizarre kind of way. No doubt these criminals re-invented themselves under another guise and are still plying their trade.

Even though I was successful in getting them closed down – I have paid a high personal and reputational price with these untruthful reports circulating the internet, which unfortunately I can do little about.

I have significant documentary evidence to confirm my rebuttal which I will happily make available to any genuine enquiry.

My conscience is clear and I invite you to review my Linked In profile where I am connected to over 3,000 leaders in the business and finance world. I have numerous recommendations and hundreds of endorsements for my professional skills.

In addition, I have been seen and quoted in many international news media like FOX, CNN, ABC, NBC and many more and am an Amazon Best Selling author.

You can contact me through Linked In or my business websites v-funding.com and eads2profits.net should you wish to discuss this unsavoury matter.

Helloo my name is Akif i did not write the above recommendation. Please remove it from here. Everything is a lie. It is true I was in africa but never met these people in my life. I believe someone stole my identity and posted this. do not call me about the validity of these comments. The above mentioned is not true it is complete fabrication.

Please remove the comments altogether.

A reminder to others. I was in africa and 99% of so called gold sellers (especially those claiming to sell at a substantial discount) are crooks. there is no cheap gold in any country in Africa. dont waste your time and money.

Glen Rothquel is a convicted south African criminal living in Australia

I am Glad that you come out to identify yourself as Glens Rothquel, you mentioned that you do not hide from criminals then why did you at first used niclu as your name instead of glen rothquel? We both know that, you are South African convicted immigrant in Australia. I remember when you wanted us to ship the gold to you for free and when we refused you made a threat that, our name is clean in the internet and so we need to ship it on your so-called CIF. Now I know the meaning of your threat but I think you will greed with me that just because we are local miners leaving in remote villages does not mean we cannot respond to your lies. Readers are not fools or stupid. They need you to send them proof of what you are saying. You claim to have paid us $65.000 dollars, we want you to send the wire transfer of $65.000 dollars. many buyers wrote to me that they asked you of this information and when you cannot provide this then you claim that you send it by western union, how can you send a western union on that amount to people that you have never met before? the only reason you said that was because western union documents are very easy to do by photoshop. Readers also want your court documents against sodicom mines and a court documents that proof that I, Ali Keita is in prison. Please do that or you are a big liar. Check around the internet, you are the only person creating this liars. If sodicom was not real or good company, you will have seen many peopl making claim against us because we have been in business long before you even immigrated from south Africa to Australia.
