Kiri Hong is quoting “www.stock-trading-world.com” as the company website. Take a look and you will see it is a bad example of a website with Adsense placed in it. On top of which the domain owner has nothing to do with this. The crooks just found the domain name and used it.

Any professional and legal company would have it’s own website and would quote contact details such as telephone number and e-mail. There would be other things which would confirm the website was owned by the company. In this case, this is not so.

To get to the point, this is a Transfer Agent scam e-mail.
