Bring a soup pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the corn, cover, and return to a boil. Remove pot from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Drain corn and let cool.

In a large bowl, combine the oil, vinegar, lemon juice, parsley, salt, sugar, basil, and ground red pepper; mix well. Cut the cooled corn off the cob and add to the oil mixture. Add the tomatoes, bell pepper, and scallions. Mix well, cover, and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
