(((NAME(S) REDACTED DUE TO PERCEIVED HARASSMENT / CYBERSTALKING / CYBERBULLYING / REVENGE POST))) | RIPOFF REPORT POST-PUBLICATION CONTENT REVIEW: EDITORIAL REDACTIONS | Investment fraud against eldery people
EDITOR’S COMMENT(1/15/2021): Ripoff Report strongly believes in the First Amendment, especially when consumers are truthfully warning other consumers about potential frauds, scams, rip-offs or the like by shady individuals or businesses. Ripoff Report is by consumers, for consumers…and we want to keep it that way! Unfortunately this Report was posted and, upon additional information, appears to have been primarily for the purpose of bullying or harassment. In many instances Ripoff Report will reach out to the author of the Report to obtain further information. In other instances, enough information is provided to Ripoff Report to warrant redactions without reaching out to the author. Ripoff Report is working to combat tactics that are perceived to be cyberharassment, cyberstalking, cyberbullying and/or what is generally considered a “revenge post” as we do not condone such behavior.
The Report was brought to our attention and, upon review of compiled information (which will be done on a case by case basis without any obligation as resources allow), and at Ripoff Report’s sole discretion, information that did not conform to current policies and/or the identifying information relating to the individual(s) and/or business(es) named in this “Report” and any subsequent comments thereto have been editorially redacted as indicated by the following “(((REDACTED)))” or (((REDACTED DUE TO PERCEIVED HARASSMENT / REVENGE POST)))”.
CONSUMERS: Be kind. Keep it honest. Keep it fair. Stick to the facts. Do your research. Keep the dirty laundry in the laundry hamper…not on Ripoff Report.
PLEASED TO SEE SUCH EFFORTS? YOU CAN HELP RIPOFF REPORT COMBAT THESE TYPES OF ISSUES: Ripoff Report, as resources allow, is working towards combatting Cyberharassment, Cyberstalking, Cyberbullying and/or other problems such as what is generically called “revenge posts” that can be riddled with personal commentary and/or allegations that can be serious. Ripoff Report would love to be able to timely address each and every review request we receive, however, this takes resources. If you think this is a worth-while endeavor, we encourage you to make a donation so that we can expand the resources that we can devote to this project. You can make a non-tax deductible donation by clicking HERE NOW or learn a little more by visiting our “Donate to our Efforts” page.

Thank you!

NOW TO THE EDITORIALLY REDACTED POSTING(S):
I met (((REDACTED))), owner of (((REDACTED))), through his wife and kids in (((REDACTED))) British Columbia. We were talking about how to invest my retirement money. (((REDACTED))) immediately told me of his company, (((REDACTED))) in (((REDACTED))), that would give me an annual return of 30%. I trusted him as I knew his family.
I went to his office in (((REDACTED))) where his partners (((REDACTED))) and (((REDACTED))), showed me different investment options. I chose (((REDACTED))), a Nevada Corporation that was going to merge with (((REDACTED))). I wrote a check for $125,000.00 USD; all my retirement money. About a year later, as I needed the money for an operation for my husband, I asked (((REDACTED))) to sell my stocks.
After several unanswered calls and e-mails I decided to fly to (((REDACTED))), where I had the surprise of my life. The office was just one of those places where people open phony offices, and no one was able to give me any answers. I tried several times to call the number (((REDACTED))) but got no answer. When I returned to (((REDACTED))) I asked his wife about it and she told me that (((REDACTED))) had divorced her and didn't even pay the alimony.
Then I started to investigate him and I found that (((REDACTED))) was a crook and (((REDACTED))) was in New York with an ongoing lawsuit with the Security Exchange Commission. Stay away from (((REDACTED))) and (((REDACTED)))!!

I have been reading into (((REDACTED))) and (((REDACTED))) and I cant believe how close to getting lured in I was.
I nearly invested for the first time with people who made promises too good to be true and just now im finding out just how crooked and corrupt their entire organization is. It seems like it will be very difficult for any of the persons affected to recover their money since they throw the ball back and forth between all culprit parties and they dont even have a legitimate office to serve processes at. Also it seems as (((REDACTED))) has posted a rebuttal, id be interested to find out what exactly is being and has been done to fix this problem.

Yes, I met (((REDACTED))) and yes she gave me a check that I in turn gave to (((REDACTED))) and his Attorney, (((REDACTED))).
They told me they will solve the problem soon.
Part of the money was stolen by (((REDACTED))) but she no longer works with us.
We are currently working to resolve the problem.
