OrangeCounty, California resident Trevor Joseph Fisher (pictured above on left) is alleged to have defrauded by engaging in illegal, off-exchange sales of precious medals and diamonds
Myself and other alleged victims of the scheme were largely senior citizens and retirees with a certain level of income or assets who the defendants discovered using lead lists.
The alleged scheme netted millions of dollars into Trevor Joseph Fisher and his front man Ben Hynes of Fountain Valley, California.
According to court records, Hynes set-up bank accounts to hide the alleged illicit transfer of funds as Fisher and other entities including Gevitta, LLC and Fish Market had substantial tax liens.
The duo maintained a manufacturing plant based in Huntington Beach making illicit CBD and THC compounds from the profits of the Diamond scam., according to the complaint. The website is currently for sale.
Between June 2006 and September 2008, the duo allegedly received $2.8 million from at least 35 customers for the purchase of precious metals / diamonds. However, only a fraction of the funds was used to buy the promised metals, which turned out to be counterfeit when tested in the USA.
The duo would contact customers by telephone, and sometimes use a phone service that allowed them to disguise their voices and change phone numbers.
After receiving investments, the due would, at times, allegedly buy diamonds and then mail them to the customers, along with purchase orders and, in some cases, appraisal documents. The orders and appraisal were fraudulent and misrepresented the actual value of the diamonds.
Fisher often then took friends on Safari's in Africa with the illicit proceeds.
