shelley cash GEM SCAM.. Gem scam--buy then buy higher and higher on worthless stones! Toronto, Ontario
It starts always with an unsolicited phone call. Very cheerful and friendly. Usually the qualifier is Shelley's son or family member.After the hook is sunk you get the big call loading you up from a small investment to 1 much much larger. sometimes if you are foolish enough to believe their scam you actually buy a small stone for 3500 dollars that is really worth half of that. they then buy it back from you for 4500 dollars. after that when they sell you a stone for 50 thousand dollars you figure that you will make a sizeable profit again. You are not buying a stone at an auction house. you are buying a "stone"from a scammer. Shelley Cash is a career con artist known to very many victims over the last 30 years. Having served criminal sentences both in Canada and the US for fraud and drug charges he always retreats to Nassau, Bahamas. Confirmed information with the authorities in Canada, U.S.A. and the Bahamas has indicated that he uses his wife/girlfriend Judy Bain (see her on facebook) and her family to escape the tax authorities in Canada and elsewhere.The best to do is report them asap as I have done after falling victim to their scam. I asked for my money back and got nowhere. They made ridiculous promises to sell my stone to someone in India and then that fell through. then a sheik in Saudi Arabia and that fell through.The head honchos are Adam Sherman and a Cheryle Bidner--both have a history with the authorities.Any rebuttals are made up by them to offset legitimate victims. They are 1 step ahead of the law and 100 steps ahead of their victims. For now.

All one has to do is ask why the company doesn't post it's owners and directors names on their website.
Most legitimate , if not all, in fact do. The site is put together to give the impression that it is legitimate.
Also--why not give clients the ability to give a reference on their site?
How come no specifics?
No satisfied customers/clients?
No legal or accounting firm name.
No banking reference at all.
Ask 2 or 3 of the company reps to meet in the USA. They cant and wont be able to cross into the USA. Especially Shelley Cash.
Also check the testimonial by Shelley Cash in March 2010. on the internet .
The only personal matter is the money spent for an over inflated stone.and empty promises. Most people are embarrassed at being taken for a ride and say nothing. Others have visited and met with the authorities including the police and taxation departments.
where there is smoke there is fire--buyer beware!

As a customer of Shely Cash's and Cheryle Bidner's and Devonshire's, I was initially very concerned with negative news on the company. I have intrusted the Devonshire team with hundreds of thousands of dollars to acquire precious stones for me. You can imagine how this news can make anyone's stomach turn.
I read this posting over and over again and a few things started to puzzle me. I found it extremely hard to believe that authorities in 3 countries revealed to you that Mr. Cash uses his wife to escape tax authorities. You have no evidence that Mr. Cash is a "career con artist over the last 30 years" or served criminal sentences for drug charges. You mention a lot of personal information about Mr. Cash in fact. You mention his family members, his wife/girlfriend by name, you mention she is on facebook and you mention Mr. Cash retreats to the Bahamas.
I am a client of Mr. Cash's for 3 years and know none of these things. You seem to have a vendetta with Shelly Cash. Are you an ex-wife, ex-girlfriend, ex-friend, ex-employee?? Why do you NOT mention the company by name - just Shelly Cash and his wife Judy?? You mentioned "Adam Sherman and a Cheryle Bidner" also. Ms. Bidner is the president of the company and Adam Sherman left the company almost a year ago. How do you not know these thiings, yet you know where Mr. Cash retreats to?
After getting my nerves in check, I immediately called the company to ask them about this. They told me they have no idea who or what is behind this. They claim they have never had a major complaint from any customer nor have they had issues with previous employees.
So, as a concerned customer, I ask you to scan and post a copy of your purchase invoices. Then we can all be assured that these complaints are real. I have an actual bill of sale that I will post to compare. SO, to the individual who posted these remarks, please post your bills to prove the credibility of your complaint.
If we do not see results within a few days, we can all be confident that this is probably some sort of slander in an obvious attempt to discredit Shelly Cash and his company. If any fellow customers would like to contact me, I can be reached via email at (((ROR redacted)))
Good luck to all
