Dear willie6666,

I must recommend to be cautious when dealing with this company, for
the following reasons:

- There is no company of the name Symbian World Inc. registered in
Washington. They could, of course, be registered in a different state;
but I wonder if this would make any sense for a company that seems to
be rather small.

- Their alleged website, www.allconsumergoods.com, seems to be
defunct, which is never a good sign.

- The Web domain "allconsumergoods.com" is not registered by any
person or entity in Washington, but allegedly by an undefined owner in
Kutztown, Pennsylvania. If there is any connection with Symbian World
Inc., it must be well-hidden. The Kutztown address belongs to the
residential house of a private person (I can't reveal the identity
here, for reasons of privacy) who seems not to be connected with
Symbian World Inc. It is worth noting that the domain has been
registered through a British registration provider, which would be
quite strange for a US based small business. One could think that the
owner of the domain tried to disguise his real identity and location.

- All marks Symbian World Inc. has left on the Web can be found
exclusively at business-to-business marketplace websites and the like,
where anyone can post anything without being checked for being legit.
There is no reliable, neutral third-party evidence for their
existence.

I don't dare say that Symbian World Inc. is a scam, but for the
reasons listed above, I advise that you be very careful if doing any
business with them.

Regards,
Scriptor
