My name is Muhammad from UK. What im going to mention here is absolute nightmare for people interested in AC Fridge Compressor scrap from UK. After 3 weeks of research and long forth/back conversation my conclusion is 99% agent/people are scam who claim their self as scarp metal suppliers or scap yard owner for fridge/ac compressor scarp.

This guy is based in Nigeria and scamming people online for Compressor scrap minimum qty 50MT quoting price $300 - $350 which nearly half of actual price.

Dear Naeem Butt,
Thank you for your detailed email. I'm interested in the offer above and actively looking for direct wholesale suppliers but my concern is I do not want to be a victim of scam.
I'm keeping your details with me but in order to do business with anyone, my first and foremost concern is TRUST.
I wouldn't mind to put 40% payment down but I need to make sure that the person Im dealing with is authentic.
Would you be kind enough to shed some light on following
Are you a scrap yard owner or a broker?
Where the company/Scrapyard is register/name/address/contact details etc?
I would be more than happy to start with 100 MT but I need to see what kind of scrap im getting from you. In order to do this I need to make a test purchase first.
If you have any further question, feel free to get back to me.
I'll be looking forward to hear your thoughts.
Regards
Muhammad
Hi Muhammad,
Thanks for your response.
I understood the content of your email and I can assure you that you are dealing with a TRUSTED Partner to build a long term relatoionship is our business priority. We are reliable supplier and I can forward our company documentation and my British passport and Residence Permit ID in the UK for your perusal and verification and if this approved authentic to you, then we can proceed further.
Due to the amount of unserious buyers contacting us to deal and come for yard visit inspection, our company has made it compulsory for 40% down payment before yard inspection for loading containers in your front.
We are major supplier and exporters with scrapyard owner in Birmingham.
Below are the company/scrapyard registration/name/address/contact details
Company name: NA IMPACT LIMITED
Address: Unit 3A, Haden Street, Birmingham, B129BH UNITED KINGDOM
Company Registration number: [protected]
Company Type: Private Limited by Shares
UK Companies House Submission Number: [protected]
Further attachment is the company scrap site license certificate and my Identities in the UK for your perusal and if this is Ok by you to proceed further on the outlined terms and condition, then get back to us with your company purchase details so we can issue your proforma invoice for the 40% down payment for the trial purchase first.
Hello Naeem Butt,
Thank you for prompt response and I appreciate your efforts to provide the documentation.
I would like to meet with you and discuss the further details in face to face meeting.
Kindly let me know what would you reckon about Thursday at the business address you provided earlier?
Thanks
Regards
Hi Muhammad,
Ok you can meet with me and discuss further face to face and also see the compressors yourself, but our company terms requires you make 40% down payment so we can make your order reservation and give you Gate Pass against Thursday for the yard visit meeting and we can finalize the deal from there. Your 40% down payment is refundable if you are not satisfied with the compressors after yard meeting.
Dear Naeem Butt,
The purpose of the meeting was to see you and discuss the trade procedure, not to visit the yard. My intentions were to initiate the payment on second visit if we both agreed to the terms. Now I think and as you suggested to do both in one visit which saves a lot time on both sides, especially for me as I'm four hour drive away Birmingham. In order to this I've to arrange funds prior to our meeting. Thus I need some time and I won't be able to see you tomorrow ( Please accept my apology).
Kindly let me have the following details so I could arranged everything in place before the visit
1) What things/details would you require from my side to complete documentations?
2) According to your company policy I suppose to pay 40% down payment and remaining 60% via TT or LC?
3) How would you like to receive 40% down payment? Via check or bank transfer if other please specify?
4) I was really keen to see the scarp myself before making a deal but I understand and respect your company policy to put 40% down payment before I see the scarp. If for any reason I'm not satisfy, the down payment will be refunded as you suggested. Will 100% payment will be refunded immediately or is there any hidden charges?
5) Is it possible to start with 25MT as a first purchase and If all goes well we'll move to 50 MT or 100 MT or maybe more than this.
I hope you understand my prospective as I'm not a time waster but a serious buyer.
Thank you again and I'm looking forward to hear from you.
Kind Regards
Muhammad
Hi Muhammad,
Thanks for your response once again. We will prefer you do this in one visit as thoughtfully suggested which will save a lot of time on both sides. So in order to proceed further, we can meet over the weekend (Friday, Saturday or Sunday) to finalize the visit deal provided you confirm the 40% down payment.
Kindly note the following details for your arrangement.
1. We would need your full company/purchase details only to complete the documentations.
2. Yes according to our company policy, after you pay the 40% down payment, the remaining 60% balance can be paid via bank TT or LC, whichever one you prefer is acceptable to us.
3. We do like to receive 40% down payment via bank transfer to our company account only.
4. Inline with our company policy as discussed with you, the 40% down payment before yard visit to see the scrap compressors is a refundable deposit amount, if for any reason you are not satisfied with the compressors, the down payment will be refunded in full amount (100%) immediately without any hidden charges.
5. Our company minimum order quantity starts with 50MT as a first purchase and if all goes well, you will increase order and move to 100MT or repeat the same minimum order quantity.
I can understand your prospective position as a serious buyer, so you let me know as soon as you arrange the 40% down payment which amounts the following calculations ($300 X 50MT = $15, 000 USD and 40% down payment will be $6, 000 in USD which it's £4, 200 Pound to be paid via bank transfer to our company account and then we will issue your Gate Pass for the visit to finalize the deal accordingly.

Hi Muhammad,
I am sorry my cell phone got faulted in the shipping port today, but I tried to call you from a restricted pay-phone in the evening hours of today, but no connection, but I will try again to reach you first thing in the Morning. You have to sign and return the proforma invoice copies today or in the morning. And did you make the 40% down payment bank transfer?
Note that the signed invoice copies and bank transfer slip must be received and confirmed by the company, before we issue the Gate pass for yard visit meeting to inspect and load the containers in your front as agreed. So, do your best possible to return the signed invoice copies and make the bank transfer of the 40% down payment, so we can reschedule your meeting on Thursday or Friday, if you can do this tomorrow morning Ok?
Salaam Muhammad,
I tried again this Morning to call you on phone number given [protected], but the number does not exist or connecting. Please kindly get back to us now by email with your signed invoice copies and the bank transfer of the 40% down payment, so we can schedule the yard visit meeting tomorrow or Friday if you can make it to the appointment.
It is very important you return the signed copies and bank transfer slip to make your appointment valid and send you the Gate Pass for yard visit meeting.

THIS GUY IS CALLING FROM NIGERIA AND CLAIMING TO BE IN BIRMINGHAM, MAKING FOOL OUT OF ME BUT THE MOMENT I TELL HIM THE NUMBER IS FROM NIGERIA, HE REFUSED TO ACCEPT AND HANGED UP.
(by the way on phone i refused to pay 40% in advance and offer him 100% LC payment which obviously he didnt like)

Hi Muhammad,
Like discussed on the phone now, if you wan to come for only yard visit inspection, what you have to do now is to use any of your partner, brother or friend to send the 1000 Pound inspection fee for the gate pass to your name. Your partner or brother will transfer the amount to your name as the receive through the money gram and you send us receipt for verification that fund is available for pick up in your name and we will sign the gate pass for your yard visit meeting.

guys be careful as there are scammers purporting to sell compressor scrap from Europe. They have fake websites and even they have shipping agent's website where they prove that bill of lading is also genuine but it is all fraud. They normally ask to send money to South Africa Bank Account and send fake shipping documents. A recent example is https://virolmetalbv.com/ that is totally fake. They also have https://www.maritimemoversworldwide.com/ to generate fake bills which are verifiable when they do some trick. All is fake and they use whattsapp phone numbers from Netherlands, Germany, UK but call never goes on their SIM as it is only Whattsapp.
I understood just a few minutes ago that the company I'm dealing with is a scam no body asks for advance payement you go to a scrap yard thousand times they won't say you a single word instead they'll ask for you a coffee i was dealing with a similar fraud.. got suspicious and typed on Google about this scam and BOOM i saw this post ..
Jazzak ALLAH U KHAIRAN brother Mohammad ALLAH helped you in this case and ALLAH SOUBHAN A WA TALLA made you help others very good that you posted this online ...
