I am writing to report a serious gold scammer currently operating within the international market in Africa across several countries. This individual recently targeted my friend, Mr. Finda. The sophisticated nature of this scheme resulted in the theft of several kilograms of gold through the use of forged documents and a fictitious corporate identity. Name: Mr. Farouk Mohamed Bourroumana. Nationality: Algerian (reported). Place of birth: France (reported). Passport No.: 187168013. Claimed position: CEO of Petra Prima Petroleum. Claimed company: Petra Prima Petroleum (Purportedly Malaysian; due diligence confirms this entity does not exist). Modus operandi: Uses various phone numbers, including UK-based lines, to present himself as a legitimate buyer. This is a premeditated fraud involving fabricated bank documentation and cross-border deception.
