International Development Group, Inc Galaxy group international So -called investor or investment advisor on multi million dollar deals anywhere anytime great returns Springfield , Virginia
In Jan 2001, an investment group came from Korea to invest what was then
some high return investments in world wide projects.
We were introduced to this company through a client he had and
an attorney who knew the client.
Pappas said he knew where they could invest for a high return with a company
called Global One Financial Jason Schmeer of Aloha, Oregon
( State of Oregon v. Jason Schmeer, 2005)
Schmeer flew into Washington andoffered to Pappas and his company that if they set up a new company and invest this 80,000USD the returns in the projects would be within 45 days. It might have been a high yield or some other scam program. Pappas did not want to invest through his two companies and chose the name Aurora group or something to that effect. The money was invested and then Mr Schmeer, sent a few thousand to make it seem legitimate. When Pappas was confronted
about returning the money to the investors, he said, he was not responsible, and did not know
Schmeer as well he proclaimed. Global One closed their offices and ran to California.
All the while calling to make it look like he was getting more business.
Look at the investments as well as the countries the International Development Group and
Galaxy group have on this site Ask your self how can this be?
and ask him the last deal he did for $ 19.000 never mind $30 MUSD
we were conned and want to warn you too

Rebuttal & Rejection of False Accusation
#3REBUTTAL Owner of company
Wed, April 06, 2011
This complaint has a malicious mix of vague and unsubstantiated charges and contrivances by a phantom accuser intended to damage the integrity and proper business image of International Development Group, Inc. We are surprised that Ripoff Report allows and prints such defaming and injurious charges without checking such with the accused party to provide some level of verification. We think that such practice is irresponsible and has high potential of inflicting grave and malicious damage to the targeted party, as in the instant case ! and does a disservice to its readers by promulgating false information. Furthermore, Ripoff Report violates the judicial requirement of the right of the accused to face and confront their accuser thus anyone for any reason whatever can throw a bomb at someone to cause injury to that party, without carrying any responsibility. That is slander, smear and defamation.
There was, indeed, a Mr. Schmeer, who in fact committed fraud and dealt in what was revealed, in time, to be a scam. This occurred in 2001, about ten years ago. International Development Group, Inc. was introduced to Mr. Scmeer as a legitimate business entity and intermediated its services to the complaining party. Such party, was provided all the information available regarding any prospective financial transactions with Mr. Scmeer, and it (the complaining party) made its own decision to enter into their chosen transaction with Mr. Scmeer. Any financial transactions were conducted strictly between the complaining party and Mr. Scmeer.
International Development Group, Inc, and any associated person or entity thereto, received no financial benefit from that event. NONE !
The complaining party has its issue with Mr Scmeer.not International Development Group, Inc.! The complaining partys complaint is analogous to blaming a referring service for the poor workmanship of a referred roof repair company.
Mr. Scmeer is, apparently, unavailable. And the complaining party finds International Development Group, Inc..very available to smear. While the complaining partys anger and any felt need for retribution is understandable, it is however misdirected toward the wrong, but available, entity.
Furthermore, the complaining partys opinions, innuendos and conjectures about the nature of International Development Group, Inc.s business are ignorance based. Knowledge acquisition in the realm of private finance is a lengthy and demanding process and not in the possession of casual and incidental visitors to the arena. Review of the few listed credentials of the companys principal underscores his professional background and experience.
International Development Group, Inc., nevertheless, realized from that experience, to be most cautious and improve its due diligence, on one hand, and to be more selective about client parties sophistication, business accreditation and financial savvy, on the other.
During the ensuing ten years, since that event, International Development Group, Inc. has improved its due diligence process, in its choice of associates and collaborative entities, and its client capabilities evaluation criteria.
The company maintains a large number of supporting business associates and clients, and provides professional services in the project and business development and funding arena. It has provided project and business consultations, evaluations, reformulations, optimizations, funding facilitations and/or entered into partnerships domestically and internationally. The aggregate project, or business, value it has processed is in excess of USD$5 Billion. In addition to its domestic activities, International Development Group, Inc., has conducted business Globally, including: Canada, Bahamas, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Cost Rica, Peru, Brazil, Morocco, Portugal, France, Germany, Greece, Turkey, Kuwait, Qatar, Kyrgyzstan, South Korea, China and Thailand.
