Karina Alvarado Rios, Mercedes Rios Sono, Esiservis Corp Karina Alvarado, Mercedes Rios, and Esiservis do ponzi scam to friends and family Miami Beach Florida, Guayaquil Ecuador
Karina Alvarado Rios was introduced through a friend since we lived in the same building. I met her in 2006, and since she did not speak English well I, and often spoke to her in Spanish with our circle of friends. She seemed to be from a good family and seemed very successful at the time, supposedly from various investments through contacts of hers in Ecuador.
After about 1 year of knowing Karina Alvarado Rios she asked me if I would like to invest some funds on a deal she had going with her company in Miami called Esiservis. The deal was to involve buying oil pipes from texas and shipping them to Ecuador. The return on the investment was phenomenal so I gave her a check of 93K. After the 2 months were up on the initial investment she told me that all had gone very well and she was working on another deal of purchasing clothing through her brother whom is the lottery director in Guayaquil Ecuador. I then invested a sum of 50k for the lottery prizes.
I did not know all the details of how she shipped them or crossed the border with them but I offered many times to go with her to help her place the orders and help in every possible way to see for my own eyes the business and to protect my investment. She always came up with an excuse to not bring me along.
She always talked about her mother Mercedes Rios Sono Pulley and about her connections and her success with her company Esiservis S.A.
These investments were made from Aug of 2007 through Dec of 2007. The payoff was supposed to be paid in Jan of 2008, prior to this she was stating that her husband was beating her and when I would call she would say that they just had a fight and could not talk. Things just did not seem right and she did not seem stable.
In early Jan I received a phone call from Karina Alvarado Rios from Peru, she was hysterical crying asking me to send her $3000.00 or $4000.00 that her pocket book was ripped off so please wire me or western union me anything possible. I was furious at this point and was suckered into believing this was true so I sent 2k.
January 2008 comes and I here from other friends that Karina Alvarado Rios fled the country and pulled a big ponzi scam on everyone she new. My life was ruined as I knew it!
I knew the circle of friends she was around so I called and asked if they invested, some denied it, and others flat out told me they were now broke and lost there retirement, children's college funds, having to relocate, repossessing their cars, heavily loaded with credit debt.
We were all in the same situation. We contacted the local and government authorities (which were not very helpful) filed all the proper paperwork and to this day, she is nowhere to be seen. So we hired a top private investigator and consulted with various lawyers in Guayaquil, Ecuador and in Miami and have everything ready to prosecute her when she returns to USA. Everything is in place and we are a group of about 15 investors so far, more might surface when this all over the internet!
We are now going to show all their business associates, friends and family exactly the type of criminals they are!
Through our contacts we have learned that Mercedes Rios Sono Pulley seems to be holding the money that Karina stole since much of the funds were funded to Esiservis Corp in Guayaquil Ecuador.
