FinTelegram received a tip from a whistleblower that LegalWeb AG (www.legalwebag.ch), allegedly based in Zurich, is also a scam. In a first OSINT analysis, we found out that until a few weeks ago the Sablegal scam was active, whereby LegalWeb AG was indicated as the operator. Now there is a new website under the domain www.legalwebag.ch which is supposed to be the "real" website of the company. Confusing, is it not?
Victims of scams, unlawful or malicious business practices are typically desperate and psychologically vulnerable. In their distress, they often seek help from self-proclaimed funds recovery experts and unfortunately often end up back with scammers. These funds recovery scammers demand many thousands of Euros initial payment just to become active. Often they disguise themselves as lawyers or criminal law experts and rip off the victims again. These are the worst of all scammers.
