Welcome to Quatloos!

Don't know enough yet to judge the legitimacy of the operation, but...

Loan Sum: The minimum in all instances is USD 25 million.

Facility DE 1 Non-Repayable Capital
The funds do not have to be repaid provided they are spent solely for the development of your project which must create employment and/or be for humanitarian purposes

Euroasian works via the Representative (“the Representative”) of an Asset Management Fund (“AMF”) which is suitable for an Applicant who owns any form of existing assets (a) worth 80 to 100 million Pounds Sterling or the equivalent in USD or Euros, and (b) who wishes to finance any financially viable project.

Are you funding a humanitarian or employment-creation project, and do you have 80 to 100 million Pounds Sterling ($130-$163 million) in assets to back up your project?

Neither Mssr. Wentworth, or Euroasian, are licensed to offer or sell securities in the United States. If the company and said "broker" maintain a footprint in the USA, a securities license will be required. See below. There's quite enough here to raise many red flags.

HAVE NO CONTACT WHAT SO EVER WITH THIS COMPANY

What I can confim from Wikkifraud and a few other sites is that in 2011 the FBI office in SanFancisco opened a file and investigation on Dean and his companies. If you want to contact them San.Francisco@ic.fbi.gov You will need to put Dean Wentworth in the header and will get a reply from the Duty Officer.

Dean has recently been requested to return considerable funds and has refused to do so, he has evaded and lied through his teeth. As a result there is a very large and vocal legal case being mounted against him in the USA, Wikkifrauds admin has the details if required.

Good luck, I have been aware and watching his activities and can confirm that while he is charming he is also a slippery as a jello on a warm plate and as honset as a drunken huckster.

My partner and I applied to Euroasian for a loan to construct a hotel. We live in Africa and found we could not obtain a visa to see Mr. Wentworth in Sydney. He offered to meet us in Zurich. We had to pay his travel costs but it was a very successful meeting. We had not built an hotel before. Mr. Wentworth gave us good advice in respect to obtaining a letter of intent from a hotel operator and took us through the steps required to enable the operator to design certain features of the hotel. He arranged with a lender in Hong Kong to provide the full cost of the project on a joint venture basis. The hotel is now finished and we are looking for another hotel project to fund with Mr. Wentworth.

We were seeking 100% finance (€210 million) to develop a power station. We had a MOU with the government to buy the electricity that we could generate once the plant was completed. We were referred to Euroasian whose Dean Wentworth arranged with a lender in the U.S. to provide the finance against the security of the government contract. Mr. Wentworth accompanied us to meet with the Lender, then with their attorneys to ensure that the contract we were offered, was bankable. Euroasian only charged for their travel costs and their 1% brokerage fee at closing was well earned. The process took longer than I expected but Mr. Wentworth always kept us informed and effectively held our hand throughout the process. If I need commercial finance again, I will return to Euroasian.

Businessman, given what Rat River Trapper wrote, please excuse me if I don't view your anecdotes as having much credibility regarding Mr. Wentworth's integrity. I'd need to see much more evidence than your say-so before I invested so much as a nickel with him.

I have direct experience with the Euroasian fund and Dean Wentworth. This guy is a complete fraud I met him in Paris in 2011. I was a financial advisor for an African waste to energy project. The meeting was held in a very fancy Paris men's club and included the African group, the technology firm that I was representing, Dean Wentworth and a supposedly Parisian banker. I listened to the whole pitch, very slick, they had answers to all the questions. When I left the Africans were working with their bank to raise the deposit fees (about $3mil USD).

I went back to my office and since there were guys from a few different countries I decided to do own due diligence. I started with the seemingly most credible guy (wentworth) When his name popped up on fraud list in the BVI I dug deeper. Realized that his cards were very artsy but didn't contain addresses, I called all the numbers Hong Kong, LA, Australia and his voice was on each answering machine!! You are the Chairman of a company that can loan $50 million and you have to answer the phone!! I checked on the club in Paris and was told that it was rented for an hour and they had no info on the firm. The Parisian banker had no internet trace. Hard to do in this age, so I believe he was completely made up.

I had a hard time convincing the clients that this was a fraud because it was so polished so I sent due diligence questions back to Wentworth and got a pile of excuses but no data on previous transactions or client references. This guy is a pile of trouble and has balls the size of coconuts . . .he was pulling a long con on a bunch of Nigerians where scamming is a national sport.
