I was stupid, perhaps nobody should work with the legitimate agency if it enables the free use of its name and does nothing to find the scammer. Besides, the law office is cooperating with the scammer. I will contact the commercial attache in Tel Aviv if anyone could let me have the name of the law firm that is dealing with the trial (allegedly, if it is a trial, with respect of fraud, in Israel).

This morning I was contacted by this person Diana, and I almost fell for the scam thinking it was the actual Global Lingo. I don't know what stroke me, but before I started the translation I decided to check everything again and then I found the link of this post on the actual Global Lingo's profile in the Blue Board. Then I asked this woman for and advance payment and she refused and tried to convince me that I was going to receive the payment three hours after delivery. I insisted...

Then I asked this woman for and advance payment and she refused and tried to convince me that I was going to receive the payment three hours after delivery. I insisted that I needed to get the money before I started working on the translations and I haven't heard from her again. I think it would be a great idea if Proz sent a message to all members warning about known scammers. Anyway, thank you for posting this and saving me a really bad time. Greetings from Buenos Aires.

I was scammed by this woman for nearly $2000.- I have about 400+ pages of the litigation. I contacted Israel Police`s Ofer Alfandari of the Fraud Division and asked him to give me the name of the recipient parties (because Alfandari was acting for one of the parties and searching for evidence in banks and other places) but he simply ignored me.

I wonder whether all of us could join together and upload a site where all the documents we were not paid for and are therefore ours be uploaded on the internet for everyone to see. Together with the story and name. In my opinion, in my case at least, the lawyer or party/parties involved should know that the entire case of their clients whether plaintiffs or defendants would be there for everyone to see.

Hi Liora, I have just found your post with my email on this forum. As you know, I have replied to your email in which you have requested proof that we are the legitimate company.

If you search my name on LinkedIn, you`ll find my profile showing all my experience and education. In my email signature you can also find my phone number which you can use to call me and I`ll be happy to discuss with you. As for the fact that we are allowing the other company to use our name, it difficult to react when you do not know who is behind this. Also, the name of our company is Global Lingo Ltd, and from what I see, the other company`s name is Globallingo for Language Services, which is totally different. Moreover, Katarzyna Slowikova you are right, the domain with "-" belongs to us, whereas "globallingo" are the scammers.
