This is information on an oil scam! http://www.fraudwatchers.org/forums/showpost.php?p=150024&postcount=929
Note the tanker ship supposedly belonging to Tinsel Cargo http://www.tinselcargo.com/?page_id=225 The ship's real name is "British Pioneer" it belongs to British Petroleum, tinselcargo.com simply stole the image from here and forged their name onto it.
What they refer to as "Our Lubricants" http://www.tinselcargo.com/?page_id=227 is actually a specialized product used in windmills, not a general lubricant as claimed by Tinsel Cargo, they stole that image from here.
tinselcargo.com is loaded with such false claims but more disturbing is this.
http://www.tinselcargo.com/?page_id=73
Those details are also used on this web site
http://www.lecdenkenya.com/contact.htm
The above ONG web site is also riddled with red flags
http://www.lecdenkenya.com/
That text was copied verbatim from this legitimate orphanage
They donation request page: http://www.lecdenkenya.com/donate.htm
That text was copied from here
Major red flag. Some images where also copied from other web sites. Just one example is the foreign volunteer holding an orphan child on this page http://www.lecdenkenya.com/index.htm that image was copied from here http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/256079
This inordinate amount of red flags indicates that this ONG whether registered or not is highly suspicious. Before making any donations, I would advise potential donors to first contact their embassy in Kenya for advice.
*Update.
The individuals behind lecdenkenya.com have setup http://eyesonnatureexpeditions.com/blog/?p=1919 which is full of photos stolen from this legitimate NGO
Stealing photos of orphans and volunteers from another web site and passing them off as your own is a trick of scammers and it sure brings up into question the legitimacy of lecdenkenya.com and eyesonnatureexpeditions.com
To summarize...
tinselcargo.com which claims to be both a shipping company and an oil trader steals text from other web sites and a photo of a ship from the Internet on which it forges it's own name.
lecdenkenya.com and eyesonnatureexpeditions.com steal photos of orphans and volunteers from other sites and claim them as their own.
Taken all red flags into account, in my opinion tinselcargo.com lecdenkenya.com and eyesonnatureexpeditions.com are all scams.

The initiation for orphan's children program grew out as a result of an increase in the number of orphans in the villages the pathetic living condition due to lack of support once they loose their parents. The organization therefore identified, as a priority to start a child care program center to cater for the orphans and the vulnerable children |
