Eminent Source LLC Ryan Miller, Monik Patel, Dan Palladino, Monik Patel Commodity Fraud/Scheme Company, las vegas, Nevada
I got involved with this company called Eminent Source LLC because my friend Dan Palladino moved to Las Vegas for work. He started working with these degenerates Ryan Miller and Monik Patel who lived in California and Nevada. I was told they bought and sold commodities like diamonds and gold bars, etc, and that Monik had a connection with princess al saud, etc. I was told told if I invested money I was guaranteed a 15 percent return per month.
I wired money on two different occasions and was told that my money would be used to buy diamonds by Ryan and Monik personally, flown to another location where they would be polished and cleaned and then flown back to the United States where they would have buyers already set up to buy the diamonds. This guaranteed making money because diamonds would not be purchased unless buyers were already set up.
After three months I attempted to withdraw some money, but of course, it was excuse after excuse of problems they were having and promises of transferring the money which never happened. I was told next week, next week until after a while calls/emails stopped being returned and I gave up trying to get my money back realizing that it was a scheme all along. I had only got involved in the first place because I had a friendship with Dan Palladino and did not think he would be this dishonest with me. I have a copy of sent contracts to me, emails, conversations, copies of my two wire transfers, etc

Hello,
This is the information that I have seen and the story that I have heard.
This was all done the correct way with paper work, licenses, visa etc... I have seen all of the documents and they are real.
What went wrong from what i heard and the investigating that I did was as follows:
1. Airport police at the airport saw the goods and asked for money once they got that money they took the goods and wouldn't give them back even though paper work was there. That whole country is run by paying people under the table and they take advantage of people who try and do deals the correct way.
2. The guys providing the goods in Sierra Leone got greedy as they saw money and took these guys for a ride.
As much as you two guys lost money these guys were taken also. Doesn't not mean they are not to blame but from what I have seen everybody's intentions were in the right place but this is a deal that just didn't work out.
There are many similar cases that I have looked into but this is 1 of 3 I feel bad for all parties as no one made any money.
Everybody took a risk and if investor money is lost not much can be done if the transaction is done the correct way.
Investing in anything never the less this kind of transaction is always going to be a massive risk.

My girlfriend and I were introduced to "Eminent Source LLC" by our "friend" at the time Lawrence Ryan Mendoza in Los Angeles. We had several years relationship with him and had shared enough experiences to where we considered him a trustworthy friend. He told us that he was part of Eminent Source LLC and that together, with Monik and Ryan, they were investing in precious metals. They gave us the EXACT same story line as described above. In short, we gave them $50,000 and all they did was make excuses and eventually told us that Ryan Miller had the money and was no longer responding or contacting them. They blamed him for running off with the money. This was in 2011, so clearly by this report above, they all lied and went and did it to someone else. We have signed contracts, copies of passports, and many emails explicitly stating all the details of the deal. They were shameless and terrible at not leaving tracks, I can't believe they even used the same company name to do it again.
