Cease And Desist Order Aid4families.com May 9, 2007 Montreal, Quebec Canada

[passiveinc]

The much publicized aid4families.com as advertises in America's Forbes.com and the Robb Report will soon be publicized and ranked among the notorious corporate defrauders in the US. Aid4families.com is a 'private' company run by "brokers" Earl Mattews and Reyanne Briand. They have a toll free number which is answered by a "civilian" listening to the morning talk shows in the background and when questioned about the banking structure of the programme and its legality, her answer was: well, if you dont like it, we dont pressure anyone to do it!!"

Hence the journey begins..

It seems a little ironic that people with no names on a website that has no license or stated owner or contact phone, would be a place of trusted information. I saw the aid4families site and don't see any fraud AS A MATTER OF FACT IT DOESN'T EVEN ALLEGE ANY FRAUD. This sounds like industry protection more than consumer protection because the company was becoming to popular and the government on behalf of industry big dogs is trying to stop the message from getting out. It's about time someone did something honest about giving people a fair shake on the profits. Also the joke has been on the public because aid4families takes everyones scrutiny and turns it on it's ear by listing an endless list of links about the big firms, THAT actually have complaints unlike aid4families. I see how far these threads go back and not one has been by a customer or on the entire internet for that matter. I guess the government got it's marching orders from big campaign donor banks and firms and couldn't wait on fraud. If aid4families.com goes away, what will people do that actually offers something comparable? Even more ironic is the fraud that is committed by people coming on this site making themselves self appointed experts, where is your outcry for all the big wall st. firms that are being sued by their customers, the silence from internet hacks and the government is deafening. That was the REAL PROBLEM BEFORE AID4FAMILIES AND STILL REMAINS THE PROBLEM AND IS PROBABLY WHAT MAKES IT SO POPULAR. Wake me up when they actually harm someone or don't since people are numb to complaints because they list dozens on their site that seem to go totally ignored. So please tell me how skipping over all the actual fraud by government and internet hacks helps anyone. Finally, how can not pressuring anyone to do something be fraud? Also, from this thread and the government complaints, it's obvious that despite the tireless effort of hacks and cronies none of their customers are being mistreated. The reason is that on their front page they have in bold print " 0 customer complaints". Essentially challenging everyone on earth to find even 1 complaint. Since there still aren't any, they seem to have the best record in the industry and no one can argue with that.

P.S. The morning talk show was probably CNBC which plays in the background of most financial firms. "They talk a lot on there"

[borisf96]

Supporters of this ponzi still believe in their lost cause.

[makesmewonder]

It's a shame if reforming government and industry is such a lost cause. You, like the owners of scam.com, with no real name or contact info have been lying on this company for almost a year now. Ponzi is just some word you picked up off of Wikipedia and you have drawn any relationship between it and that program. Did you know that since the first post on scam.com, aid4families has had a link on their website to scam.dom just so people can read this nonsense for themselves. How is finding an unhappy customer going after a year?? Who do you bank with so that I can search them? Leave your phone number so that people can find out what kind of person they are taking advice from and why you are such an expert.

First. I knew about ponzies before Wikipedia was borne.
Second. Guarantied 120APY can only be ponzi. I am surprised they were not closed before. Such an obvious scam in a plain site.
Third. Owners of your website are probably in third world country enjoying beaches, stolen money and no extradition.

[makesmewonder]

Thats what I thought.....no name for you, no name for the owners of scam.com....and how do you suppose the Canadian government contacted aid4families ( because of all the sunny beaches in Canada?) There is no point in you responding without the main issues, who are you? who do you bank with? who owns scam.com? Did you find any actual evidence of anyone being defrauded? Other than that shut the hell up. Only respond to those questions.

[skibum]

There is a little more information here http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?t...t=aid4families

Boy do makesmewonder and sued sound like they have been cut from the same cloth! ;-) hey.

veiled threats seem to be the order of the day with them, it would be more fruitful dont you think to explain the accountability procedures aid4families has in place and the specifics of its investment plan rather than spew BS all over the place
Well an honest person might anyway. :D

[bosley57]

I have invested money in this company. So far they have sent me with the exception of one time, what i was to receive. The one instance that they were late, they contacted me and paid me a late fee. What company does that. I have investments with another company that is well known and guess what, they have committed unfair trade practices but no one says anything about that. I also had investments with another company and the same thing happened. So far I haven't seen anything like that with aid4families.com. I have invested with them since Feb. 2007 and they have been true to their word.
For the record, I was contacted by a representive of the Canadian government in regards to my account with aid4families. I did not give him any information due to the fact that he knew exactly when I made a money transfer. Only my financial institution and the bank of Montreal had that information. Guess who gave them that information. I should have sued the Bank of Montreal. So who is being honest here.

[borisf96]

So bosley57 has invested in one ponzi scheme after another(sorry "investments"). And now he is angry at the government. He has found the guilty party. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[mumbles]

i should do this. 10% a month. so you send me 10,000 and i tell you that your account is getting $1000 a month interest. and you tell all your friends. and i can even send you the $1000 cash cause you gave me 10,000 to hold. you get a bonus for signing up all your friends, too. but, sadly, i will have to go out of business one day and you won't find me or your money. don't worry, you will get new friends. i guess the sky is the limit when you are crooked enough.

[bosley57]

If I have invested in one scheme after another then I guess the main stream investment companies are all crooks. Just listen to the news and you hear it every day. The other companies that I had investments in were well known, they had adds on TV. Imagine that. I'm just giving you the facts for my situation and that is all.

[Mark Best]

Earl Lawery Matthews and Reyanne Briand are behind aid4families, aid2families and pay4families - all scams. They were arrested and charged with fraud in Newfoundland - it is in the news - over $500,000.00 involved. Hats off to the AMF, the FSRD, the RCMP and the folks who came forward and reported them.

Bosley57 - I guess that they obtained your information through the good old technique of obtaining search warrants and subpoenas. Perhaps you should have cooperated. You might have recovered something.

[ohplease]

just a few updates: To keep the FACTS straight. Aid4families.com confronts rcmp and crowns' defense of financial corruption. NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Grand Bank, Newfoundland, Canada, 01/31/2008 - Aid4families.com, an agency at the forefront against corruption in the financial industry that is currently destroying the world economy, battles indictment.. Principals of aid4families.com elected to move forward with their plea and court election, rather than allow the indictment to be dismissed. The court put the option to the defense after a second court date the rcmp had failed in it's obligation of full disclosure. The court citing disregard of the supreme court of canada from the prosecution and refused to set the trial date. Instead of setting a start date for the trial in june, the court set a deadline for all disclosures by the rcmp/crown on feb. 27. After that date no more disclosures will be allowed, at that time either a trial date will be set or the case could still be dismissed. Punitive restrictions were also removed from the principals. Multiple agencies have conspired with industry to destroy the revolutinary organization which seeks to offer more generous returns to depositors. Bolstered by the current deeply seeded corruption and fraud exposed by the current crisis in the financial sector, aid4families.com finds itself validated and will continue it's unpopular struggle for wealth equity in society. Aid4families.com is currently preparing to go before parliment to address lawmakers on financial social injustice, arbitrary law application among other issues afflicting the global community. Aid4families.com seeks to encourage lawmakers and media to foster a truly competitive marketplace in the financial sector. Currently the economy is manipulated by a cordinated cartel. Unlike most organizations critical of inequities caused by the current banking system, aid4families has been the most competitive alternative to the status quo. Commercial media to aid4families: Revolution will not be publicized

	(Newswire Today) — Grand Bank, NL, Canada, 03/03/2008 - There are two reasons for the way media has decided to cover this story; one is malice and the other habit..
	One might think that with all the hoopla surrounding fraud cases these days; e.g. Conrad Black, Brian Mulrooney, etc. that aid4families would be dealing with Britney Spears level coverage. From the beginning, media attempted to work in tandem with government and industry in ignoring the program. This, of course, is no surprise since media outlets benefit from the same ill-gotten spoils that the government does from the banking industry. Reuters, the AP and even NPR are downright hiding. Disparaging smears from the AMF and industry hacks on the sham of a website calling itself Scam.com ( a name that actually suits it) were crawled to the top of search engines. Ai4families recently complained in an OP-ED in the Newfoundland herald and in a CBC television interview, that too many underhanded tactics were being employed by its detractors. Transcontinental media and VOCM lept at the opportunity to side with their RCMP contacts and rushed to paint guilt as a fact. Once informed of mistakes in their reports and after discovering the innocence of the program, both cohorts have returned to the blackout status for nearly six months. There are two reasons for the way media has decided to cover this story; one is malice and the other habit. The habit is that bad news trumps good news. We offered a solution for working families (who cares), we were charged as crooks (front page plus radio and Tv) it's an industry led coup (back to blackout). We know that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, that you are charged with murder on the front page and when the charges are dropped, you get a mention on page 62. The imbalance is why people live in fear. Everyone is a crook, terrorist, pedophile or murderer. The point is for you to sleep, work, and shop, everything else poses a danger. The malice is that banks are smart enough to dangle out work to lawyers and finance campaigns and spend zillions on all manners of advertising. It is known that you will pay off your credit cards or home a few times before the debt is erased. Escalating fees for accessing your own money is insanity. It is known that every bank has its hand in the cookie jar of subprime profits. No attempts to stop them from operating a website, taking more money from the public, advertising or hell, they still have a media platform to induce people too take more bad advice. This, while the government mortgages your grandchildren wages to keep them afloat. Finally, the joke is on them. Lest we forget, we are on trial for having a popular website and program. This despite government, industry and the media attempts to ignore us into oblivion.

THE GREATEST DEPRESSION: WHY aid4families told you so.

Trillions, with a capital "T" are flushed down a toilet of imaginary worth. Every week the impossible happens. Last year when aid4families tried to revolutionize wealth distribution, we were laughed at and harassed. The FBI, attorney generals, rcmp and various other muscle for industry agencies masquerading as public and consumer protectors have been asleep at the switch. The CSA (canada's bank protection group) brags in it's annual report about running over 200 new competitors from the market in 2007. Meanwhile the media kept trying to talk the markets up to assist their advertisers. Insane notions like the canadian economy is separate from the american economy (very few economies are separate from the american, least of which the canadian). The hoax was that competition was bad for the public. The governments funnel tax dollars (and imaginary dollars) to the "central banks" who compute it to banks then the banks put large law firms on retainer and buy large lots of media advertising. The other tax dollars are spent persecuting competitors by so-called "regulators"(an interesting choice of terms). So in practical terms the way it plays out is industry sics "their law" enforcement and regulators on any competitors, then their media lackeys hype the downfall of competitors as public safety then cut to a commercial by their benefactors. Like Dr. Phil says "how's that working 4ya?" Actually you don't know yet, since they loathe to tell you anything bad and worst still, if they're not quoting industry insiders as news then they actually have a "analyst" give the report. We haven't changed the front page of our website since the end of last summer and it reads like todays headlines. If the governments weren't emptying the taxpayer coffers to keep us from helping people, then you would know how we could remedy this situation in the future. If our website wasn't under industry control, we would be telling you about the bubble that's being blown up for the next explosion. Painfully enough this explosion won't be over before the next one starts, so we're looking at an explosion inside of an implosion. Oil, gold and a few too many currencies are being blown into superbubble "safe havens". The way real estate had been after the tech bubble burst in 2000 - 2001.

What's really going on? Two things. 1. The largest hoax correction in history. 2. The new world order has become the NOW world order. You thought it would never happen, someone would stop it, no one did. Globalization, "free(slave)trade, you bought it hook, line... Now canada invades countries, now corporations complain to world regulatory agencies that supercede all sovereignty of nations. Exxon made and GM lost 38B last year. Canada and india get america's call centers, mexico gets america's factories and america gets their engineers and doctors. Oh and what did the media tell you? That there were protestors in miami, seattle and quebec making trouble for progress and you believed it. Why wouldn't you? what time do you have to study the situation for yourself? with your 3 jobs to equal the pay of 1 a generation ago. You want more money? work more hours AND be more productive and MAYBE we won't move the company to china THIS year. When you wake up, the money (real and imagined) will be in fewer hands as the central bank cartel exercises more ***** as they act the way the u.s. administration did after 9/11. Trillions are being funneled to contractors for this oversized training mission to test urban upheaval warfare and high tech gadgetry in iraq. Trillions are being funneled to the Central banking mob "working in concert" the media tells us. Why? because your government doesn't have the money that's being spent to bailout the people who stole the money in the first place, which means YOU! HAVE TO PAY ALL OF THIS BACK, to the governement who borrowed from the people they bailed out, who stole it in the first place--simple. You won't do anything about it, gas has tripled and civil liberties trampled but if you do get a wild hair in your butt and decide not to take it, then that's what all the urban warfare and gadgetry training is for.
