To Whom this may Concern:

We have wired on numerous occasion, over 10+ times, from Texas to California over $300,000 to Ian Adlington"s Business account he totally controls, he said.

All funds wired from our banks in Texas to his bank:
Union Bank of California, 1090 Bayside Drive, Newport Beach, CA 92660
Routing # (((redacted)))

Newport Capital Acct#(((redacted)))
                          Swift Code# BOFCUS33MPK

This started in July 2012 for a small unsecured loan that Ian Adlington said he had approve authority to loan me personally $1,000,000.00 from his Alpine Equity Fund, (a hedge fund, he said), and could fund in 48hours or so unsecured. He asked for $5,000,
then a few days later $7500.00, then more using excuses having to set up two companies in the Bahamas, then more money for Taxes for the loan, Regulatory Fees for the Bahama Regulators, then more for prepaid interest to balance the fund lending, as he said, "that is the way it is done in hedge funds". It seems that hte balancing never happened.

During this time. A saw mill for sale in Papua New Guinea, and he jumped on the idea he could furnish $5.2 million dollars to purchase the mill and capital and through his contacts, possible tax credits, a legal team etc. 

Of course, we were eager to move forward and felt we could recoup our money. Ian had contacts, so he got Robert Rutherford on the phone, and rob knew a man, Glenn O'Brien, (both to be solid citizens and good people). Glenn and I spent a lot of time, Glenn warned me at that time that Rob Rutherford had some [problems with Ian, I guess one of Rutherford's friends or companies gave Ian Adlington money and they were not happy and not funded. By this time we were well into another $100,000+ sent to Ian for this and that, which was all lies now that we see all of the complaints. Some of the complaints are carbon copies of what has happened to us.

My daughter had 3 days to live in November 2012 with cancer. Ian knew this, and knew how desperately I needed the million dollar loan to fund. Ian is the most inhuman person in action I have ever witnessed. In person, he is the best at getting one excited, a vocabulary that would have stubbed Einstein, a name dropper in high places from presidents to governors from countries all over the World. He even said he could get the Angel Flight for my daughter while she was having to go to Mayo Clinic, Baylor Hospital, Boone Pickens Cancer Center, MD Anderson Cancer Center and Angeles Cancer Clinic not four or five blocks from his offices on Olympia Blvd in CA. No help form Ian, just talk and makes you warm all over that it is going ot happen.

We have not received on penny from him to this day, not one. You are correct he has been answering the phone about once a week, with my records of calling him as many as 30+ times a day for over two years now.

I have copies of all wires,  Alpine Equity Fund, he as Manager, Note he sent to me I signed for $1,000,000. I did send him my signature to put on the note for the saw mill but he never sent me a copy, which has been a concern.

Well, I have all copies, we are trying to survive, I lost my home, my credit, and my family thinks my Partner and I are nuts, in fact my Partners' wife just filed for divorce.

You see the damages, my house appraised for over $895,000.00, gone, our money gone, that's it.

I talked to Ian while he was in China last week, again while he was traveling somewhere else in Asia. I think he is back in LA, and I know that Masha still was office at 11409 W. Olympic Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90064, in the same address, second floor. Not rocket science to go into the executive floor and walk way back to their two offices. His numbers work 949-939-7474, and the one that you can leave a message at most times when not full is 310-598-6384, his UK #4402079179907, his last home number was, but never answers and no answering machine, 310-893-9728. I have been to the office twice in the last four months. Ian most always has someone with him, usually Masha. They are slick talkers.

I have gone to the authorities and Ian has started to harrass and threaten me, saying I've blown the deal and the money was there for me tomorrow, but unless I remove myself from all sites that spotlight his fraud, he won't make the deal.  He is a ficious and dangerous man.


My phone number while still on is (((redacted)))
