Alamak Espana Trade Sl is scammer


Here is yet an another online scammer who is washed out of RecycleinME.com. “Alamak Espana Trade Sl’ was registered in our portal on 10/21/2009 . Now we have received three complaints on this company. All the three complaints are same in nature. They will sign the contract and ask you to open the LC. Once the LC is opened they will take the money against the forged document without making any shipment. You can see the complaint we have received below:-

Message: Dear Sir,
This is to inform you that we had seen an ad posted on your site by one company ALAMAK ESPANA TRADE SL for sale of various scrap in the month of october. We signed a contract with this company and opened L/C. Now this company has forged all the documents like Bill of Lading, SGS certificates,etc., and negotiated the document and took the payment against forged documents without doing any shipment. Now all the persons are absconding we request you to publish this case on your site so that anybody else is not duped. Pls. also post request to help in tracing these fraudsters. Pls. do not publish the name of our company as we are trying to take legal or some other action against these people however you can publish my personal ID to seek help from people using your site.
Thx and regards

Dear Nadar,
I am an agent in Hong Kong(help our buyer to find scarp to ship to China) and was trying to get some seller information from your site around October of last year. We came across a company named Alamak Espana Trade Sl in Spain. This company is absolute scammer. We ordered 600 mt of rail road scrap from them. We issued LC to them right after filling up the ordering form. They sent us pictures and promised to ship us the goods but after waiting for over two months and lot of emails exchanged, they said the scarp was loan on the ships and was coming over to Hong Kong on mid February. They informed their bank to claim our LC with fake documents like SGS report, shipping document etc. Our bank received the release instruction and checked with all the documents, right after verification of all the documents our bank told us all the documents was fake. Our bank charged us the LC cost as well as $60000 HKD legal fees to stop the counter party bank to claim the money!!! I still have all the scaned copy of the documents and what should we do now. Is there anyway we can claim this money back??? We already suffer of losing the buyer and we just don't know what to do now.
Please advise
