- 3:22Speaker 1: I feel very safe. Thank you very much for your time. Man,
- 3:25Speaker 1: no problem. Share you What are you doing at the
- 3:28Speaker 1: courthouse today?
- 3:30Speaker 2: I've lent people money they haven't paid me back, so
- 3:33Speaker 2: I've gone to civil court to get my money. I've
- 3:36Speaker 2: got a person I've helped out to start a business
- 3:38Speaker 2: that I've only made mines and he's basically told me
- 3:42Speaker 2: to go to court as well.
- 3:43Speaker 5: You made this person once before, so yes, so why
- 3:46Speaker 5: did you give this person money?
- 3:48Speaker 2: Are a good feeling about you? That's it? And it
- 3:50Speaker 2: turned out to be a very big cook.
- 3:52Speaker 1: So what was the sort of business idea? If someone
- 3:55Speaker 1: else he was going.
- 3:56Speaker 2: To go overseas, go to Africa and then they buys
- 4:00Speaker 2: gold and copper and he brings it back. So I
- 4:03Speaker 2: funded it, okay, and it was a big scam.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Did he tell you what his plan was?
- 4:10Speaker 2: Yes, advertised on Facebook people, other people has invested, not
- 4:15Speaker 2: just me. He owns the transport to bring it down
- 4:18Speaker 2: and all that.
- 4:19Speaker 1: But how is that legal?
- 4:20Speaker 2: Though it is? We found out now it doesn't even exist.
- 4:24Speaker 2: You're investing money, you're going to get a thirty percent
- 4:27Speaker 2: written on it. And wow, you know, if I can
- 4:30Speaker 2: do this regular and we are about five people, if
- 4:34Speaker 2: you can do this regular? And then we started digging.
- 4:37Speaker 2: What my advice to people is go to a lawyer
- 4:39Speaker 2: first before you invest with anybody, have him investigated, and
- 4:44Speaker 2: then then and then you do the right thing. He's canned.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Everybody seems too good to be to He's got all
- 4:51Speaker 2: the paperwork. Yes, he's on Facebook. I'm a widow. I
- 4:54Speaker 2: lost my husband in COVID, plus my brother in laws,
- 4:57Speaker 2: so it's me and my kids. Wow. Then you go
- 4:59Speaker 2: to human said, look with odd interests. I just want
- 5:02Speaker 2: my money back because it's not small amounts.
- 5:05Speaker 5: We're all wondering what the amount is that you invested.
- 5:09Speaker 2: One person was too. I did two hundred and sixty
- 5:11Speaker 2: five thousand. I'm one out of five Wow, ma'am, just
- 5:17Speaker 2: one group.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
- 5:18Speaker 2: It's about ten other groups, ten.
- 5:21Speaker 5: Other groups of five people each. Oh my word, all
- 5:25Speaker 5: of this money gone.
- 5:27Speaker 2: Yeah, well we're going to go to court now and
- 5:29Speaker 2: see if you can pay some.
- 5:30Speaker 1: He's not going to pay that money back.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Well, then we want the right to expose him on Facebook.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Do you still have contact with him now?
- 5:38Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 5:39Speaker 2: I've got a message from him this morning saying what
- 5:42Speaker 2: that he's trying to get bridging finance to pay my money?
- 5:46Speaker 1: Ma'am.
- 5:47Speaker 5: I hope, I really hope that you're going to get
- 5:50Speaker 5: your money back.
- 5:51Speaker 2: In today's life, everybody's struggling financially. So if you come
- 5:54Speaker 2: and help someone, if I give you two thousand and
- 5:57Speaker 2: have the decency to pay me back, because in a month,
- 6:00Speaker 2: you're going to need me again. I can rather take
- 6:02Speaker 2: this money go help pensioners. Goes pensioners and single mothers
- 6:06Speaker 2: and children and even single fathers through and help them
- 6:11Speaker 2: and know at least I won't keep the return. But
- 6:13Speaker 2: somebody goes and sleep full dummy today. Then these people
- 6:17Speaker 2: that can't lie and take and the motto is, let's
- 6:20Speaker 2: go to court, but let's see what happens.
- 6:22Speaker 1: Thank you very much for your time.
- 6:23Speaker 3: Okay, Oh man, you sound so sweet. You sound like
- 6:28Speaker 3: such a good soul. I hate to tell you this, though,
- 6:32Speaker 3: but you ain't never getting your money back.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Oh so much money.
- 6:36Speaker 3: Your money is gone. I know that scam though I
- 6:40Speaker 3: was entertaining it once. Okay, so let me tell you
- 6:42Speaker 3: how this works. I was just you know me, I
- 6:45Speaker 3: like to be in the thick of the chaos and
- 6:47Speaker 3: maybe there's a sting operation that we can do.
- 6:49Speaker 4: Right.
- 6:50Speaker 3: So I was approached by this guy and he said,
- 6:54Speaker 3: you know, he's Diamond Mine Zambia. Could actually be the
- 6:59Speaker 3: same guy. And he says, meet me at in the
- 7:04Speaker 3: car at the car park of a shopping mall. So
- 7:06Speaker 3: I went, I put on a beanie and I put
- 7:10Speaker 3: on like a glass tree flag. Yeah, And I said
- 7:14Speaker 3: so yeah, what's this. No, no, no, he's got this. Mine
- 7:17Speaker 3: doesn't quite have all the finance to provide, but the
- 7:20Speaker 3: returns are going to be huge. I'm like, that's fantastic.
- 7:22Speaker 1: I'm all in.
- 7:24Speaker 3: It's also around about two fifty. And then he had
- 7:28Speaker 3: an actual diamond with he says, this is what we're
- 7:31Speaker 3: mining out of uncut diamonds or.
- 7:33Speaker 2: What he says is yeah.
- 7:36Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a it was like a it looked

- 7:41Speaker 3: beer bottle. Yeah and no, but it was like an
- 7:46Speaker 3: uncut there's a rough diamond. And then he said, look,
- 7:49Speaker 3: I've got my assessor, my the guy that will a praise,
- 7:52Speaker 3: and confirmed that this is what it is. So yeah,
- 7:55Speaker 3: this other guy comes out in other coins. Let me
