We would like to warn this way any potential business partners of Swiss company BRIDGING THE GAP S.A., represented by its Director Mrs. BELGIN ÖZERSIN, to be aware of fraudulent activities of this entity and its director personally. At the best, she is notorious and serious liar, non-performer and time waster. This Swiss company Bridging The Gap S.A.and Mrs. Belgin Özersin, wanted to obtain Bank Guarantee as collateral in order to get line of credit from their bank for finaning of their projects. We are company who provides such Bank Guarantees secured by our assets. We have signed Contract with this client and based on the Contract clauses, we made arrangements to have our assets blocked and the instrument issued. For this service we had to pay service fee to our bank. Mrs. Özersin was obligated to have her bank to verify the instrument and pay the total fee as agreed in the Contract. Unfortunately, after we arranged with our bank that the instrument was issued and sent to her bank, her bank did not proceed as was stipulated in the Contract simply because Mrs. Özersin failed to make proper initial arrangements with her bank for provision of line of credit against such Bank Guarantee. So in a fact she lied when she claimed that she has all arrangements with her bank in place and she signed the Contract well knowing that she has no financial back-up to fulfill her obligations as per the Contract.
For almost a year she was lying to us and to the intermediary who brought her to us, stating that she is “just finishing” some transaction and she will have the funds to pay off her obligation under our Contract. She was submitting fraudulent documents as proof that she is entering some incredible investment programs, that she was getting lines of credit in hundreds of millions and billions of EUR, etc. Simply unbelievable lies on level of a “Daisy Chain“ broker without any knowledge.
However, at the time of signing the Contract she knew very well that she does not have any arrangements made with her bank to provide her with the line of credit once she obtains such Bank Guarantee. She also knew that she does not have cash funds to pay for the bank fees as required by the Contract. Despite all this, she signed the Contract and we got our assets blocked on our account by our bank and the instrument issued and sent to her bank. This was clearly attempt to commit fraud on her side.
Because of her lies we had our assets blocked for more than four months and since she is clearly in breach of the Contract, she is obligated to pay the penalty as stipulated in the Contract as well as the bank service fee, which we paid to the bank on her behalf, which in total represents the amount of 2,070,000 EUR. Although she is liable for the payment of the amount, she is avoiding to fulfill her obligations under this Contract by providing more lies and incredible stories. At the present moment our attorney in Paris is preparing the case for ICC Arbitration proceedings in Paris, but this way we also would like to try to reach ammicable settlement of this case.
Also, we would like to warn any potential entities who could be approached by this company and Mrs. Özersin NOT TO DEAL WITH HER because it will only cause them to lose money and time.
