Investor alert: Melqu Invest HB

2010-04-29

Finansinspektionen (the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority) has
today published this statement in order to warn investors against dealing
with unauthorised firms. Melqu Invest HB is not authorised by
Finansinspektionen and is therefore not entitled to provide financial
services. Finansinspektionen has not received any notification of cross-border activities from other EES countries.

Melqu Invest HB has a website (www.melquinvest.com) using the
following address: Ängsviks Torpsväg 5, 184 95 Ljusterö, Stockholm, Sweden.

Melqu Invest HB's representatives contact investors through unsolicited
telephone calls and offer to buy their holdings of shares in an American OTC company. However, the investor must first pay a fee in advance, "Seller’s 10% Refundable Payment Deposit Amount". This is an advance fee fraud scheme.

To find out whether a company or individual is authorised, check
