TelexFree @ BehindMLM

Back in April the TelexFree Trustee filed a host of clawback adversary proceedings against TelexFree insiders. The Trustee was required to commence the Adversary Proceeding before the Criminal Action could be resolved because the expiration of the Statute of Limitation relevant to these actions was approaching and was clearly going to expire before the Criminal Action [Continue reading…]

As per our last update on Sann Rodrigues’ visa fraud case, a Status Conference was scheduled for June 7th. On June 6th a Joint Motion was filed, requesting a continuance of the scheduled conference until August. Reasons for the delay include a substitution of attorneys on the DOJ side and a joint request for ‘additional [Continue reading…]

Back in April the TelexFree Trustee went on a clawback rampage and sued a ton of insiders and merchants. Carlos Wanzeler, his family, Gerry Nehra and his law firm, Nehra and Waak were just four of the parties the Trustee is attempting to recover millions of dollars from. Responses to the Trustee’s lawsuits are starting to [Continue reading…]

A few months ago the TelexFree Trustee filed a heap of lawsuits against insiders and merchants who worked with the $3 billion Ponzi scheme. One of the merchants who accepted payment from TelexFree was Joele Frank Wilkinson Brimmer Katcher, a New York based PR firm.

Last month the TelexFree Trustee estimated the TelexFree victim claims portal would go live in early May. Slightly late but better than never, the victim claims portal has just gone live.

So weak was Faith Sloan’s case for requesting a carve-out of $30,800 in suspected stolen Ponzi funds, that the Judge signing the order didn’t even bother to provide a reason for its denial. On May 17th Judge Gorton denied Sloan’s second carve-out request with a scribbled “motion denied”, dated and signed.

Back in April Faith Sloan demanded the release of $30,800, currently frozen as per a preliminary injunction granted in May, 2014. Having previously had a similar motion denied by the court, the SEC’s response to Sloan’s latest filing can be paraphrased as “nothing has changed since”. That didn’t stop Sloan going gangbusters and invoking all manner [Continue reading…]

Scott Miller was a top investor in the TelexFree Ponzi scheme. For his part in scamming TelexFree victims out of $3 billion dollars, a preliminary injunction was granted against Miller on February 14th, 2016.
