We are a group of investors/debtors united in persute of Izabela Monika Perera Zelarowska who uses an investment scan to offer shareholding in start-up plastic re-cycling businesses.
The scam requires investors to deposit advanced payments (approx $50,000) into overseas Bank accounts (Poland) to enable her to finance plant purchase and obtain local licencing.
Once this advance payment is received (banked outside of local court recovery juristriction) the start-up becomes 'complicated' for various personal and business reasons and usually Ms Perera goes AWOL. If traced the next stage of the scam is to gain time by negotiating over and over again the details of a repayment method based on the fact that the project will now not go ahead but a 'new' potential investor or 'buyer' for the plant and machinery is close to completion.
Usually only the first (or partial first) payment of any agreement is paid to prove a willingness to remedy the situation but in reality this presumably is to cover herself in the case of legal action for fraud.
We are investigating this same scam being executed in UAE, Australia and Canada.
In parallel with the above Ms Perera usually rents but fails to pay for luxury accommodation presumably to 'entertain' investment prospects. Usually a similar scam is used, eg.. no local cheque book as company just starting, security cheques in foreign bank (account closed), partial payments in cash in arrears, utility bills unpaid with a final resort to 'sub-letting' and absconding with the security deposit and rent money of her illegally placed tenant.
