IPS-Trade.com – Fraud Cases ( 48 comments)

i was surfing the internet to see if someone else is complaining about this ips-trade.com that i found this page. i'd like to add my complain to this page too. we purchased pipes fittings from ips-trade holland for our project back in 2005. after 6 month delay they delivered the materials that must had seen them. i think they had dug and found those pipes and fittings and then sold to us with european mill certificates. we complained to ips-trade.com but they did not even bother to reply. the project owner did not accept the materials and we had to re-purchase them from another supplier and we lost almost 80 grand. ips-trade never came back with an answer and that we believed this was their usual and everyday work. they buy chinesse or inidan homemade fittings pipes and so and bring them in their warehouses, punch fake heat no. and make a fake european mill certificate for that heat no. and then sell them to customers like us. they also have ways to deceive the inspectors.

we stopped buying from ips-trade and also told to our colleagues in other contractors not to. if you are one of ips-trade.com customers and disagree or think this may not be true just test one of the certificates you received from ips-trade.com by verifying with the manufacturer. the one you have had doubts about the quality of the products you were delivered and always known that something was wrong

IPS-Trade Iran is working legally and possess official establishment documents

IPS-Trade Iran has been legally and officially established on 14/11/82 (February 2nd, 2004) at "Iranian Companies Registration Authority, Qeshm Island", under License No.: 1182.

It holds all necessary legal documents establishing the authenticity and legitimacy of its rights to fully function under the IPS-Trade name in the Iranian territory.

IPS-Trade Iran also possess the relevant permissions from IPS-Trade Holland.

The accusations mentioned in the IPS-trade.com website are not based on facts in which IPS-Trade Iran strongly rejects all of them.

IPS-Trade Holland and its sister company Terwisga B.V. still have valid and running contracts with IPS-Trade Iran and IPS-Trade Iran is official branch office of IPS-Trade Holland yet. The contracts are bilaterally signed and we have not accepted a termination. Therefore we assume the contracts as valid and are continuing our regular businesses.

We herewith reserve our rights for a legal suit against these false accusations.

The legal documents are available upon request.

IPS-Trade Iran is now continuing its regular activities independently

IPS-Trade Iran has decided to continue its presence in the market actively and independently to be of efficient and enhanced services to its clients. IPS-Trade Iran will undertake all aspects of the businesses and perform its tasks as usual.

Yeah, yeah, nice stories gents, looks like a set-up from the Mr Parvin indicated above to justify his stupid claims agains IPS in Holland I know they kicked him out because of Fraud with Employees and putting the company money into his own pockets and I know because I am also an Iranian working in this field.
Parvin is only interested in 1 thing, playing Mr Hotshot, BMW, young girl friend, divorced his wife and left her alone with a small child.

Yes I also believe in Santa Claus, That Saddam Hussain is still alive and playing poker with Elvis Presley.
I have seen Mr Parvin and his girlfriend in Dubai while he was still married and she was only 17, I know that in Iran it is against the law to have an affair while you where still married ? This is the country where they still hang you as a punishment ?

Still do not understand where Parvin of the IPS IRAN got the time from to do this things, upon cheating, visiting sexclubs, staying at the hookers at the Hyatt Regentcy in Dubai.

Anyway I have more to do than participating in a idiotic forum like this

So now we have clearly proven that
A Customer - Majid Al Obaidi - John and Parvin are all the same person

We are working with IPS already for more than 10 years, we have know them as a very solid, reputable and professional company, I am working in the oilfield for more than 25 years, I am now the owner of a very large Iranian Contracting and Engineering firm and the above is purely laster and ### from a frustrated, egotripping Iranian disqualified Vetinary Doctor who pretended he knows the oil business, yeah, I looks a dark world like a cows ###.

Anyway I leave this site, but read this disclaimer below :

O hayou gozaimasu

I am a Engineer working with MES in Japan and involved in Ilam project in Iran.
We purchased many electrical items and various other instrumentation equipment from IPS IRan.
We paid 50% upfront to IPS Iran, they never paid their Iranian suppliers and we never received our materials which we had to purchase again from other supplier.
Mr Parvin put the money in his own pocket, he never informed MES that IPS Trade was not aware of his "own" business in Iran, so we understood very good why IPS Holland dissmissed him from Duty.

Parvin is bad news, bad reputation, very bad person, we can give you names of the companies Parvin did not pay while we MES paid him, we lost EIED lost, Ilam lost, he made quick money.
IPS-trade.com is very reliable and helpfull company with whom we Japanese engineers like to work and cooperate since 15 years without any single problem.

WHY EMPLOYEES NOT STAYING WITH THIS COMPANY?

maybe same reason why people are not keeping married ! greener grass, better looking secretary, higher salary elsewhere

Some one approached me to join this forum being a ex- employee of this company.Let me give honest feed back .IPS is one of the best company in supplying material for oil and gas field .They are supplying best qulaity, best price and best delivery .I will strongly recommend to do business with them and not to listen IPS IRAN as they are cheating parental company.

No one external person has right to comments on employees/ex-employees as this is company's internal matter.

Last and final comment I will make this statement made by IPS Iran is really a Yoke

---------------------
IPS-Trade Iran has decided to continue its presence in the market actively and independently to be of efficient and enhanced services to its clients. IPS-Trade Iran will undertake all aspects of the businesses and perform its tasks as usual.
-----------------------

IPS Iran has no clue of the materials, no idea of the oil and gas industry, the people working in the so called IPS Iran as Mr Parvin the so called Managing Director, The Sales Manager - Mss Sadr (his girlfriend) student in Business and probably expert in bed, Mr Sadr Project Engineer the brother of Ms Sadr, 2 other employees which are family and who are man and wife, what is this a soap ? Like The Bold and the Beautifull or Dallas ?
Mr parvin has not a single penny, has stolen from his former company and is trying to make false claims of pretending he was the agent as well as their director ?
-------------------------

IPS-Trade.com is not in any need for an IPS in Iran, they do all the business from the service centers in Dubai and Bahrain so dream on Baby :-))

Mr Parvin can better use the slogan of Mr Obama - Can we cheat them YES WE CAN !

I am Dr. Parvin and the owner and director of ips-trade Iran. I had no idea about this forum and what the people said about ips-trade.com until last Tuesday 27th, when I just found this page on the internet, whilst I was searching some "IPS-Trade" terms. It is not a big deal to find this page, if you search any of the "ips trade, ips.trade, ips-trade, ips-trade.com, ips-trade Holland or even ips-trade Iran" you will find some websites of ips-trade branches first and then in the same page, this forum about ips-trade.com Holland.

Neither me, personally, nor ips-trade Iran was going to comment on any of the above and did not. But this evening I found that someone instead of commenting on ips-trade.com, which seems to be the subject of this forum has dragged me and my family into this and written ###s and several accusations.

First of all none of the above persons, who commented about ips-trade.com or its manager or its ips-trade fze's personnel is me, either "A customer", "john" or ... even the one who claimed to be "Parvin"! You can verify me by sending email to my email address: a.parvin@ips-trade.biz (also stated at www.ips-trade.biz contact page) or call me on my mobile no.

Second point is that the one who claims to be "Valezadeh" and claims he/she is Iranian and owner of a big firm and is this aggressively speaking on behalf of ips-trade.com Holland and defending IPS-Trade’s interests may wish to make him/her known to us and then we can verify if his/her words are in any worth. You, “Valezadeh” dared accusing me of these ###s, I hope you have the guts to let us know who you really are. However I already know who this guy is and what his answer will be.

He mentioned things that all are rubbish. Furthermore I know only one person, who writes with the “Valezadeh’s writing pattern”, the very same guy had sent me several emails from a yahoo ID "Raoul ..", in which by court order and yahoo kind assistance we could successfully track the sender down and probe the computer of the person who had sent those emails from.

The "Raoul ..." ID & email have been closed and at this very moment he and his threats and accusations (which are the same rubbish as the above said!) are under investigation. I will add the above made accusations to his previous criminal cases. He is enough negligent that does not think an IT Expert can trace records of his online activities and whatever he does on the internet can be easily retrieved. He may not be aware that writing pattern reveals the author and forensic experts can find who has written a certain text. Now it seems I have several repeated text from the same guy! Very well, this makes the investigation a lot easier.

As of the court case I have against IPS-Trade.com The Netherlands, which the "Valezadeh" has implied to, I am really reluctant to openly discuss about it, not here and not publicly in this forum, it will not be a professional act in my view and might damage the ips-trade.com's outlook permanently.

Finally, for the persons who named themselves "Yoshima" & “xyz” (although I am also sure that these persons are the same as “Valezadeh”), could you give us your real name and contact details? Readers and I are very interested to get to know you as well.

In general, all of the above writers are acting cowardly. If you have something to say and you think that is a pure truth why do you have the fear of revealing your names?!

Well, all of the above comments have no solid ground unless otherwise the author is verified or a concrete evidence is provided.

Mijn naam is Hans Willem Miedema uit Friesland. Ik lees deze website gisteren en wil graag mijn commentaar. Ik weet het IPS-trade.com en haar eigenaar Gerard Zondervan sinds 2002. Ik kan u zeggen dat u niet kunt vertrouwen dit IPS-trade.com en speciaal Gerard Zondervan. Als alternatief kunt u kiezen voor Van Leeuwen Buizen.

Wij hebben gewerkt met Van Leeuwen nu voor 3 jaar en we hadden geen enkel probleem met het zo ver. Met IPS-trade.com Ik had een zeer slechte tijd. Hoge prijzen, lage kwaliteit, gebrek aan technische capaciteiten, onverantwoordelijkheid en zo op me om te stoppen met IPS-trade.com eeuwig. Van Leeuwen is een zeer grote leverancier. U kunt vertrouwen.

Waarom zou u het risico uw project? Kies Van Leeuwen en vergeet IPS-trade.com!

De Van Leeuwen website is: www.vanleeuwen.com

Wat een leuk forum is dit, ik wil gewoon even reageren op de bovenstaande reactie van een zogenaamde heer uit Friesland Hans Willem Miedema.

Ik kan u garanderen dat deze tekst niet door iemand uit Nederland is geschreven, dit is iemand die geen Nederlander van origine is, het verhaal is doorspekt van de taalfouten en heeft dezelfde opbouw als vele allochtone Nederlanders gebruiken zoals Turken, Marokkanen etc.

Mijn conclusie, iemand wil doen voorkomen of hij of zij uit Friesland of Nederland komt, echter dit is een fake.

Verder weet ik niet wie IPS is echter bovenstaande reactie is flauwekul.

I just follow this forum and I know IPS very well without going into any details but simply stating some facts.

If we look at the website as given by Mr Parvin www.ips-trade.biz, We notice several facts which cannot be denied by anybody.

On the website www.ips-trade.biz :

A) Is a copy of an ISO certificate with the name of IPS-Trade.com on it, seems that that belongs to IPS in
Holland and not to IPS Iran, the same with the JOS certificate.
B) As we all know there is an embargo between Iran and American companies, how than can IPS Iran
indicates various oil companies which are American or have strong US links, obvious these are
the references of .com and not of .biz or has anybody ever heard that these International companies
would buy in Iran, simple example how should they pay with the embargo ?
C) www.ips-trade.biz shows a photo of a building, this is the head office of .com in Holland.
D) www.ips-trade.biz shows a banner of e-commerce with Trade ranger, this is an american company, ever
heard that a US company is allowed to do e-commerce in Iran ?
E) Under news is indicated that IPS Iran is still owns permission of .com, while at the .com site is indicated that
it is not allowed, while more than 6 months ago in Dutch Newspapers a legal document was
published that all contracts where deleted by law.
F) The postal adress and contact numbers are obsolete, I visited the building resently and the offices where
rented out to other companies and where abandon almost 2 years ago by Mr Parvin.

So just facts, nothing else, you may make up your mind yourselves.

Je kunt niet altijd ontkennen. Geef me je mobiele nummer. Ik bel je en leg alles over ips-handel en Gerard Zondervan. Ik kan het bewijzen van de fraude gevallen van IPS-handel. Maar ik heb nooit iets gehoord over slechte Van Leeuwen.

Heren lekker makkelijk he iemand anoniem proberen af te branden, lekker neutraal achter je computertje.
Ja dat zijn dezelfde mensen die per ongeluk ook kinderporno op hun computer hebben, ja waardoor kwam dat ook al weer, ga wat doen, stelletje Loosers.

Elk huisje heeft zijn kruisje, dat is bij bedrijven niet anders, als jullie helden zijn dan stap je op het bedrijf af en zeg je waar je een probleem mee hebt, nee nu lekker anniem achter iemand zijn rug iemand proberen zwart te maken dat is heldhaftig in mijn ogen ben je dan nog minder dan de welgeheten hoop stront, daar stap je tenminste nog over heen.

Wat mij betreft allemaal kleinzielige, minderwaardige, gefrustreerde figuren !
Het zijn allemaal hypocrieten, als je boven het maaiveld uitkomt dan proberen ze je een kopje kleiner te maken in zaken, in je familie overal, maar pas op wanneer je de mensen ineens aanspreekt en vraagt mocht jij dat wel meenemen van kantoor, of wist je vrouw dat je stiekum op msn zat met een ander ? of briefjes stuurde op e-mail met als onderwerp xxxx ? nee dan zijn de meesten niet thuis.

waarvan akte heren of dames :-)

i'm not pretendin that we, Americans, like Iranians so much, you know that. took a glance at the this forum and felt that ought to add my sayings. ips purchased some items from our company in US on sept. 2006. we trusted this company n accepted DCP with expiry of 30 days after receivin the goods. but after this period we didn't see any sign of the payment, got started callin them over and over and evry time they made stupid excuses like 'our manager's in a biz trip' 'we're waitin for a big Giro' 'we'll receive money from shell' 'we've transfered the money, didn't you receive it ...!' and such ridiculous sayings. we only could catch up with the money 4 months later. looks bunch of school boys layin their fat ### in there doin nothin and waitin for the bell !

He Cowboy are you telling us the rest of the idiots in this world about some minor problem about a late payment ? You of all while we are all in deep economic ### because of your misrable banking system ?
Your goverment just pumped 800 billion in the banksystem and the bank management gives themselves a 20 billion Bonus.

We see wars every where because you full yourselves superior to all the other worms in the world ?
You had mickey mouse as a president for 8 years who dragged the whole world in a black hole !
I am more afraid to get unemployed than to face Bin Laden.

I cannot throw a shoe at you, but take my simple humble advise ### YOU !

j'edde e mulle lik e bescheten dakvenster hahahaha!

ga je miserabele leven, zal hij uw kick ### een van deze dagen!

hello. I am an engineer in sp 6 7 8 site working for TIJD, I know IPS holland, they gave us various materials and I can confess 90% of them was very bad and sometimes damaged. we knew that the materials were not from european origin and we were almost sure that the materials test certificates and mill certificates presented by IPS holland were all faked and not from the makes, at all. but the japanese did not allow any one to touch this and all the way backed IPS up [mostly a person with F. name]. but now we know there is a commitee looking into every documents specialy the shiping documents and certificates and the materials themselves too in quantity and quality. if they find any corroption they will not stop untill they have got large compensations from IPS holland.

That is the reason they open office in Jebel Ali free zone in U.A.E. You can manage fake documents and certificates and supply material from UAE.Dubai office is not for sales but to manage all these issues.

My Name is Fukawa and I was till I retired the project coordinator in SP678 for TIJD working very close with Pedec and the stories and information indicated above are 100% untrue and false.
Hang is also a Chinese name, while TIJD means Toyo (Japanese) Idro (iranian) JGC (Japanese) Daelim (Korean) so we do not know or have any Engineer in SP678 project by the name Hang.
So stop your false accusions and be a man, identify yourselves and come forward.
This site is a disgrace for our industry to gossip about persons and companies, further for your information we never dealt with IPS Dubai office as that office only supplies to the local UAE market with tools and spares.

No one knows this company batter than who worked with them (IPS DUBAI office).IPS Holland management is very good but dubai office is famous in local market(supplier and client)due to bad attitude and treatment with employees(asian).

I fully agreed with lisa.I have also bad expericne with dubai office specially with dutch lady(she need mental treatment), she spoiled my carrier and company's future as well.Dubai office is failure becuase of her only.No one stay in this company becuase of her bad behaviour and support from manager. Holland management is very busy and never goes in details whats happening in dubai office.IPS is working with very good and professional way(holland office)and i strongly recoomend to do business with them as hey are good in sourcing material at competitve price and good quality .I have seen comments about IPS Holland which i do not agree but offcourse have some reservation about doing business with dubai office.

Seems this post is a forum for old employers trying to give their previous company a final kick on the ###.
Nobody knows for what reason people or leaving a company, that could be by themselves, fired because of several reasons etc.
What I however know very well is that every company has secrecy terms and conditions in their employment contracts and when these are breached that they can claim severe amounts from these ex employees, I recommend that IPS in Dubai takes some legal advise and goes behind these employees and get them prosecuted at Dubai court and afterwards expiled from the Gulf as these comments are simply not done in any business.

I am a legal counceler in Dubai and would be happy to assist.

I have heard many of the employees in The Netherlands office have also been fired and that was done by the top manager. All of them were accused of betrayal, doing business on their own while they were in the ips-trade office and such allegations. I am also told by several people who are still working for ips-trade that none of them actually did the accusations and the top manager just thought that they did. He sounds having paranoia, every night having nightmares that everybody around him is a traitor.

I also got a credit report surveyed by a reputable institute for ips-trade anonymously send to me last month and it clearly shows that ips-trade has a profound financial instability as well as lack of management efficacy. Given the market situation and what we can see about the company there is a good chance that this company wont last for a long time and will be soon bankrupted. Now if you want to lose your money in spite of several warnings, do business with ips-trade.

Funny is that I have never seen that a "counselor" is not able to write his own job title correctly. Whoever you are "khalid", stop threatening innocent employees that have done nothing but expressing their disastrous experiences with this ips-trade. Their words are not in any way against the Confidentiality Agreement they might have signed with ips-trade.

And hey! you are in no position to threat people by deportation (if you mean by “expile”! I think you tried to say “Expelled”). Anyways, UAE is a country of law, no one is above the law here. Write your full name and contact details here and I know what to do.

Nice Stories Mr Rahid Bin Saad, I have heard that 1 person only was fired 3 years ago because he was having his own company while working in IPS as a manager.

Furthermore IPS has just expanded with 2 new branches and is planning to built a new office and warehouse of nearly 8000m2, not really the thing you would expect when a company has a instable financial background.
Maybe you should just pull the published accounts in Holland which are available by the Chamber of Commerce and you will see that they show healthy profits for the last 5 years in a row.

Anyway I was planning not to take part in this "gossip"forum where you can drag, gossip, make false statements about any competitor, your neighbour, your wife, te president, the pope and anybody in the world you dislike, you just start a falso rumour and make the story goes around.

I have a tip for the forum masters, next time when you modify your forum, only allow people to post after they have made a profile with a working e-mail adress, after filling in the profile sent a link to the given mail adress.
Only place the comment of new complaint after the link has been accepted and the mail is verified, only than this will mean something now it is just crap and gossip.

Oh jah Rashid bin Saad I have heard you are homosexual, your whole family have told me that including your lover mr Sarfarz, who is gay as well.

Every one can observe that some persons are not talking on real issues related to business, quality, services etc of IPS TRADE, they are more intrested about offending individual by talking about family, wife, girl friends, sex etc.etc..This forum is to raise concern about business complain not to defame others.Also some one from IPS should respond only real issues raised by CUSTOMERS(If real) and shall address issues to the point.Every one has right to raise issues about company but only real issues.Other hand IPS should respond issues stright forward rather than offending with personal comments.Other should also raise real issues here not to defame company.CUSTOMER should raise issue with reference no., order no., project name etc and shall provide contact tel no.so that IPS can address probelms.

simple example of frustation.this forum is to talk about business not to talk about personal.

I think IPS TRADE should take legal action against those who dont know how to write and discuss business related issues.This type of language shows background and culture of person.If you are weak or can not face truth then frustation come out.

Hope participants are well educated and will talk only business .

I have visited this company in south zone and lady told me that if you want to do business with IPS you have to love /respect our dog .Is that new business norm in jebel ali :)

perhaps in keeping things confidential, the dog is much more loyal than you and that was the meaning behind the quote. next time you'll have to put the dog's name on yourself or otherwise we wont do business with you at all

i mean IPS TRADE wont do business with you

and if you know IPS TRADE has done something bad or illegal tell us or otherwise stop telling nonsense. to which end do you want to drag people by these stupid sayings? you can't do anything since IPS TRADE is a perfect corporation and everybody knows that

Ya ya, this is how you treat your customers and business contacts, and I am sure you are a person from IPS itself .If someone tells something against you, you get boiled over and give her all the insults .I saw in the page before, you insulted the persons wrote against you by very bad language .Sounds like Bush is runing IPS, he was used to say 'be with us or against us'! No one has the rights to comment or says his/her thoughts.

Some european manufacturers have formally confirmed that the documents that ips trade attached to its products and sent to some customersprojects were all fake and forged. gas and oil orgenisations of iran for instance nioc nigc nipc and ... will not hesitate to black-list a trader company in such occasions or worse they would claim all loses ;
more and detailed information can be posted here for everyone who reads this article

close business

some news over ips-trade ! ips is blacklisted in Bahrain and i think will be in iran soon !
if anyone wants het proofs drop a line to my email address or call me on my mobile

Person who is confessing should provide contact details to every one so that this subject can be closed and everyone will know truth.

IPS is a very terrible company. They have duped a Nigerian local businessman of over$75, 000. Gerard Zondervan is a monster. Don't let his outside looks deceive you. You don't really want to see his inside. That man has no compassion, pity, or empathy for others. He is what I call a HUMAN MONSTER - DRIVEN BY GREED, ENSLAVING OTHERS AND PRIDE IN TAKING OTHERS WEALTH. You are cursed Gerard Zondervan and I hope you burn in hell when you die.
