Bitharbour/Lanco
SCAMMERS
These two companies work side by side and are the dregs of society. Like several of the reviews already listed, we were taken in by their opening speeches of "no financial outlay" on receiving our recovered funds.
All goes quite well, until you get to the home straight, then you get €300 request for linking bank account, which will be released along with the funds (yeah right), so the request then goes on the Bitharbour portal for the funds to be sent, sits in "pending" then comes the crash.... first time €2,225 required for an AML certificate which can be presented to you within 20 minutes didnt pay this. Second time several weeks later, requested funds through portal "approved" funds would be cleared through a clearing bank in Singapore....yippee ..then at 17:30 receive a phone call from Brian Brighton (apparently an agent for said singapore bank) time in Singapore approx 02:30am saying that €2,300 had to be paid immediately for the bank to released. So we put it to bed.
Some four weeks later another phone call fron Orfeo Cruz at Lanco asking why we had not withdrawn our funds from the BitHarbour portal. Wrote him an email explaining all that had occured in the past. ASSURED us that the "bad apples" had been removed and all would be good. Same end to the story, but this time €2,300 for Insurance that would cancel out any obstacles like mentioned above. The funds were then"lost" between our bank and Bitharbour, but not to worry as they were speaking to our Bank to address the issue ...ummmm. Needless to say our Bank confirmed to us that the funds had been sent to where we instructed.
Totally unscrupulos faceless people.
Other names involved in this farce are :-
JESSE QUINTON, DAVID COLE, MIKE RAWLINS, MR. NICHOLS.
If this review just stops one person going through what we have it will be worth it.
