Due diligence - an example

Here is the search result for "Mazut" oil on Alibaba:​
Picture
The seller on top of the list is OOO Yuniteknefteprodukt. By clicking on the company's name will we find more information, where the company claims: "We "YUNITEKNEFTEPRODUKT LLC" are reputable registered mandate company in Russian Federation for Petroleum/Petrochemical oil and gas products. We have direct access to numerous genuine sellers which makes our delivery distinctly unique. "YUNITEKNEFTEPRODUKT LLC" is a registered trading company since 2005 which based in Russian Federation and its headquarter located in Moscow which acts as a Mandate company for introducing REAL Buyers to reliable end Sellers/Refinery that specialized in offering wide arrange of Petroleum Products that are sourced from best manufacturers and processing units from Russia."
​
Their claim to be a mandate for "genuine sellers" is a big, red warning light. All major oil companies in Russia have issued warnings against mandates. They never use mandates, because they sell the oil themselves.
  • Warning from Rosneft HERE.
  • Warning from Gazprom HERE.
The address is found after a minute's search on internet, in this case on ec21.com: "Street Mariupol, 6, office 28 Moscow, Moscow." 

You will not find this street, because it is spelled wrong: The correct name of the street is
Мариупольская улицы​ (Mariupolskaya street). The -skaya ending is used to form adjectives from nouns. Example:
Мариуполь = ​Mariupol.
Мариупольская улицы = ​Mariupol(s) street.

​Google Street Maps shows a building, but it is unclear whether it houses offices or apartments. This is a yellow warning light.

The telephone number is also found on ec21.com. It is 7 - 499 - 3907875. The country code to Russia is +7. The area code 499 is for Moscow.

Note: Some Moscow have area code 495. Some of those numbers are virtual numbers, which means that the holder can be anywhere in the world.

​The contact person is Verstakov Ilya Arkadevich. A Google search for this name resulted in two fraud alerts on the first page. This is definitely a red warning light.

Normally would it be sufficient to stop here. But if you want to be 100 % sure can can you use one of the following services: 
  1. Order a report from Interfax Spark, which gives access to a database with millions of registered entities in Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
  2. ​Use the service of our investigator in Moscow, which is an expert in economical crimes.
