Excerpt from the article "TEN SIGNS OF A SWINDLE"
However, enough the presence of the following features to recognize an unscrupulous contractor:
Bubble. Under various pretexts, Contractor is actively trying to attract to the implementation of the project as much as possible quantity of performers and subcontractors (often from different countries).
He also clearly justifies the need to divide the project into numerous intermediate parts and sub-parts. Contractor justifies the need for a large quantity of experiments, analysis, tests, consultations.
Why? Indeed, in this case, it is much easier to justify the exaggerated budget of the project and to dilute responsibility for the final result. Who is a culpable, that it didn't work? Immediately one could not tell it. "It's been a part of the project, and it is made with quality! Let's look at a new project, all these things can be improved!"
Assume that you are an owner or a manager of mining and metallurgical Plant, and you have a need to solve some complex technical problem (to develop a project of a new Plant, a new technology, to optimize the processes, to change the equipment, software, etc.). You can't do it yourself, because you don't have experts. By an advice of friends you are accessing to the mediation company offering engineering services and much other. "They will help me for sure here! It's all so serious, it's almost a ministry!" Maybe so. But you should not relax. After all, only you are interested in a solution of your problem. All others are only interested in your money and no one is going to save your money. That's for sure!

And your looting continues.
The worse the work is done, the more contractor earns with additional services to further improve of some things.
And you feel a pity for to stop it all,
because you have already given the contractor a lot of money.
