The seven steps, ordered today as a Screen or a File

Counterparty Screen$95

One name, delivered within the hour, marked DRAFT for review by independent legal counsel, no human read. PEP is not screened; adverse media is not swept.

Counterparty File$500

One named counterparty, the Screen's steps plus a named human's written read and signature, in your inbox by the end of the third business day or the fee is refunded in full.

Email hello@oilflow.us with the product and the counterparty name in the subject. An invoice comes back by reply. Both are prepaid by invoice or marketplace order; the Screen can also be paid by card where oilflow.us/pricing offers it.

What the dossier ran

  1. Sanctions screening

    OFAC SDN + Consolidated, UN, EU, UK HMT, Canadian SEMA, AU DFAT, Swiss SECO. Eight lists. PEP screening is not included, a politically exposed person who is not also designated will not be flagged. A sanctions match is a hard stop and the dossier says so plainly.

  2. Company registration

    OpenCorporates and national registries: does the legal entity exist, where, and since when.

  3. Regulatory licence check

    Licence requirements across 235 jurisdictions (79 with deep country-KYC profiles): OGRA, EPRA, EWURA, DED and peers where applicable.

  4. Asset confirmation

    News, port data, and public records checked for the physical footprint the counterparty claims.

  5. Trade references

    Reference signals where available, unverifiable references are reported as exactly that, never papered over.

  6. Digital footprint

    Domain age, web presence, and consistency scoring, the cheap-to-fake layer, weighted accordingly.

  7. Broker-scam pattern analysis

    LOI/ICPO/DLC MT700 procedure typologies plus OilFlow's first-party fraud-cluster registry, the corpus behind the public /check tool.

The same pipeline flagged a fake Chevron Group CEO behind a pitched 25,000 MT cargo lift, a LinkedIn profile claiming the top job since 2002, when Chevron’s actual CEO is Mike Wirth. We published the full investigation, evidence and all.

Three questions about the dossier

What did the dossier cover that the free check does not?
The free counterparty pre-screen runs OilFlow’s first-party scam-cluster corpus only, one layer, one paste, instant. The dossier ran all seven steps: 8-list sanctions screening (OFAC SDN, OFAC Consolidated, UN, EU, UK HMT, Canadian SEMA, Australian DFAT, Swiss SECO), company registration, regulatory licences across 235 jurisdictions, asset confirmation, trade references, digital footprint, and broker-scam pattern analysis, compiled into a tokenized report sent by email.
Why trust a vendor no one has heard of?
Pre-revenue, no customers yet, no SOC 2, you should ask. The honest answer: run it on a name you already know the answer for and judge the report. The one real published case is the Simar Chahal record above. The 8 lists screened are named above, not hidden behind a vendor black box.
Did it need an account?
No. The order took a counterparty name and an email for the report link, with no OilFlow account and no Stripe account.

The honest fine print. Screening is a point-in-time snapshot, not legal advice, AI-generated sections ship marked DRAFT for review by independent counsel. Steps that cannot be confirmed from public sources are reported as pending, never as clean.
