REVIEW OF GROSS FRAUD
BACKGROUND
I am co-owner and partner in the firm Arkitektgruppen Lille Froen AS which was started in
1986. As it was decided to pay dividend in 2006, the owners were recommended by our
auditors to start each our separate holding companies, so that profit could be used for
investments in shares etc. before they came to taxation.
Based on this advice I then started Alfsen Holding AS with organization number 989
130 390.
FIRST PURCHASE
Not long after the holding company was registered; I began to receive offers of investments
in shares, etc. Based on several telephone calls I settled on an offer from a company called
Hibber Bothwell Capital Partners, which was based in Barcelona, Spain.
It started with a relatively small amount;
May 29m, 2006:
4300 shares in an automobile company called Transnational Automotive Group Inc.
Transnational Automotive Group markets cars, taxis and buses. offers automotive transportation management
systems. builds and manages automotive assembly plants. and develops hybrid and electric drive trains,
Transnational Automotive Group Inc.

ATLANTIC FINANCIAL
After it had been silent from Hibber Bothwell for almost two years, I received an inquiry from
Atlantic Financial, based in Hong Kong. They stated further that they had taken over
Hibber Bothwell and now contacted all their customers.
They offered to sell my TAMG shares and invest into a new company with great potential;

where I finally had 162,091 shares and 100,000 so-called directorship shares.
As this portfolio was to be sold to a Chinese business ventures, it was said that the buyer
would obtain a tax benefit if the whole deal was restructured juridical as an "offshore" trade.
The sellers was to pay 10% of the total value in fees for the implementation. This could, or
would, I not be involved in and informed them that I could not be involved in this transaction.
I was then, in summer / autumn of 2011, left to sell my shares by myself, and I craved to
receive the share certificates.
Atlantis Financial approached me several times after this with new solutions to sell my
shares — they even suggested to have them transferred to an African transaction in gold.
FIRST PRIVATE EQUITY GROUP
In February 2012 I received an inquiry from a firm called First Private Equity Group, based
in New York. I routinely checked (which I had done to Atlantis Financial previously) the
background of this company and received a positive confirmation of both the company and
the contact person from an online company that carried out these checks.
Transactions with First Private Equity Group :
Account opening FPEG / General Electric shares / US tax claim
AVSENDER BANK MOTAKER BANK MOTTAKERNAVN BELO'
DNB Industrial and Dreyfus, Rupert USD 217 000,22
Commercial Bank of NOK 1 309 315,24
China,
Hong Kong
FPEG offered to replace my OTEC shares in either Google or General Electric shares on
behalf of a client who wanted to obtain a tax benefit through energy shares.
EFTA01116015
I accepted, and the transfer were conducted. I received a receipt on the transfer, and my
new shares were then to be sold on the New York Stock Exchange. I had chosen GE stocks
and declared that I would sell them immediately. This was supposedly done and I got a
confirmation that they were sold. The money should be transferred to my account
immediately. As this took time, I asked for progression, and got an email from FPEG with a
letter from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in which they regretted to
say that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) had stopped the shipment because they
would have to establish whether I was taxable to the U.S. for the benefit of the transaction. In
the meantime I had to pay the tax, but it was said I would get it refunded after 30-60 days.
Furthermore, I was advised to open an account with FPEG. This would make it easier to
transfer money to Norway without any new intervention by IRS / SEC. For this account to be
active I would have to put $ 100,000 into it. This would be an interest bearing account - terms
seemed right to me.
The money was to be transferred to that account and forwarded to me in predefined rates so
that they would not be "flagged" by the IRS as they called it.
The next thing that happened was that the stated "Transfer Agent", a company in Salt Lake
City (which I also confirmed through the internet) called the National Stock Transfer. This
company was, as it was stated, suddenly, and without any stated reason, closed. Thus, it
was stated that it became an insurance matter, and I was informed that the FPEG had had a
meeting with the insurance agent who in turn had confirmed that the insurance conditions
applied and that my money would be covered. This should happen within 3-6 weeks.
This was the last I heard from FPEG. Through the norwegian summer holidays in july I made
repeatedly attempts to contact them, but without success.
ECONOMICFRAUDS.COM
The first day after the holiday, August 1, my daughter was in touch with a web-based
American company called "economicfrauds.com", run by Emilia Chidester. She confirmed the
day after that I was defrauded and that the First Private Equity Group did not exist. She
explained how such "frauds" worked and what possible actions I could take to investigate
and take legal steps to find the people behind the fraud and also that it might be possible to
track and retrieve the money.
She collaborates with various European financial institutions and has been in contact with
several European police and justice authorities. She gives me little hope that the Norwegian
authorities will be active in such a case, and that is confirmed both in the phone conversation
with a representative of the National Authority and by Nilsen at Majorstua policestation.
I have since registered that even this firm, Economicfrauds.com is, if not flat out fraudulent
themselves, not to be trusted. But contrary to all my receipts end documentations on all
those transfers and transactions, I am now convinced that I have been frauded — most likely
from the very start in 2006.
