The Startup & The Scammer: A Real Story

Finally, Nigel you really do offer an unusual collection of services. I took a look at your website. You offer offshore banking, offshore company formation, secured loans, unsecured loans, venture capital, cashback for reading online subscriptions, business consultancy, IT Training, and even claim backs for unfair credit card charges. You are a talented and diverse man Nigel.
