Warning Issued Against ADEGS d.o.o in Ljubljana: Alleged Financial Scam Uncovered

A Slovenian company named ADEGS d.o.o, located at Kikljeva ulica 7, Ljubljana, 1000 Ljubljana, has drawn suspicion from the international community due to alleged financial scam activities.

A Reddit user revealed their concerns after being asked to transfer funds to this company. Being based outside of Slovenia, the user found the request suspicious and sought confirmation from the public about any previous interactions.

Red Flags during Initial Investigations

  • Caller ID Spoofing: The company reportedly made international calls from a supposedly Slovenian number, but the number displayed was actually from the United Kingdom.
  • Discrepancies in Business Activity: ADEGS d.o.o is officially registered for “installation of machinery,” but the user’s dealings were significantly different, necessitating a law firm’s involvement.
  • Masked Bank Account Location: The user was instructed to transfer funds to a Bulgarian bank account under the false pretense that it was in Romania.
  • Unusual Money Transfer Request: The user was requested to pay 15,000 Euro installments in the name of family support.

Potential Scam Unraveled

As further details unfolded, it became apparent that the user was possibly dealing with a scam. The primary company, Public Investments Solutions, is based in Romania, and ADEGS d.o.o appears to function as a suspicious sister company.

Report Suspicious Activities

Anyone who has dealt with this company or has encountered similar shady practices is urged to report them to local authorities and financial regulatory bodies. Always exercise caution when working with unfamiliar companies, particularly those involving financial transactions. Thoroughly vet a company’s background, legitimacy, and bank account information before sending funds.
