MJB on Ralf’s Latest Scam

Wednesday, August 23rd, 2006

Like I said in my post before this, I emailed Michael J. Bruzzese, the guy whom I was fuming over because he closed down MMHIP.
What can I say?  Lawyers are a double-edged sword.
I told him about the latest scam Ralf-finance.com was into.  he will now include the e-gold account that steals investor’s money thru phishing in [...]

Ralf-Finance is at it again

Lawyers are worse that Scammers

Friday, August 11th, 2006

If you have ever lost money to an HYIP program, I’m sure you feel bad about it, but at least you know there are risks involved that the program is a ponzi scheme.
