Woman Invested in Company that No Longer Exists | Part 2

Why was that dude even there? He was ripped off yet he's gonna stand as a witness for the defendant to confirm that she actually did go out of business??? Humm something's not right! These two scammed the poor lady out of her money.

That was exactly what she needed him to testify to--that the business no longer existed. And she prevailed, so it seemed to work in her favor

[@BellaBB1]

I’m surprised JJ didn’t catch that lady’s lie. She said she used the money to pay for brochures and marketing. The guy who made the brochures and handled the marketing said he didn’t get paid a dime. Therefore the lady likely used the money on herself or she spirit it with that guy.

Yeah, I didn't think you could just get investment money for a business and then not actually do the business. But that's a good reason not to be a silent investor, you want to actually have a say in where the money goes.

[@CactusThorn]

I disagree. The investment was made with fraudulent intentions and it definitely seems like the defendant is a scam artist. The defendant’s witness doesn’t make her look better just because he’s so happy to be ripped off. I don’t believe him anyway because nobody does a print job without money up front. And he didn’t get a retainer for marketing work? I call BS on both of them.

This is why I never initially invest in any start-up venture. Always provide the money as a loan, with a contract, and IF the business does pick up, you can always add addendums to the contract to be repaid your loan in equity in the business. But if things don't pan out, at least all documentation prove it was a loan, which must be repaid regardless of the prevailing circumstances

It's hard to say if this lady was scammed or not; she's confusing the investment she made for a loan but that's assuming the defendant was completely on the up and up when it came to running her business and investing the money properly which it seems was not the case. In any event the plaintiff signed a contract and unfortunately investments don't always pan out. Which sucks 'cause she really didn't seem to understand why she wasn't entitled to any money back~

[@overcominglifestrials5316]

Bottom line…it doesn’t matter WHAT the defendant used the money for BECAUSE the plaintiff signed the agreement that the money was an investment. She invested in an idea that was not off the ground yet. The plantiff’s ignorance is no excuse. So many people quick to invest in something because they looking to get rich quick and they fail to do the research to make a sound decision. One of my friends asked me to invest in a business and I had them to a sales pitch and write up their business plan and work to get the idea started. I helped write up the business proposal for the bank and got involved to see what all it took to get the business working and found that some things weren’t gonna work. Needless to say, it didn’t happen and my pockets never got lighter. 💁🏽‍♀️ You can’t be too eager to make an investment. Had she consulted a lawyer she would have made a better deal that included her getting her money back should the idea fail. This is what happen when you money hungry and seeking a quick come up. I’ve had so many people approach me with business deals and you have to be willing to do research, ask questions, and consult independent council. If you don’t know enough to do that, you fair game and ignorance is no excuse. 💁🏽‍♀️💁🏽‍♀️💁🏽‍♀️

[@Person01234]

If they tell you they will use your money for one thing and they use it for something else, even if it's an investment that is fraud. Of course I doubt this lady did her due dilligence and got a proper contract written up, but people can still be legally liable for fraud even in an investment. EG. if you have a ponzi scheme you dont get off because "it was an investment".

[@BandhariWickette]

It does matter a little what the defendant used the money for because under the terms of the contract that money could only be spent on things related to the business that the plaintiff was investing in~ I think~ =^-^=

It's an investment, not a loan, that is very true. But the defendant commercialize her (solo) services and got that money printing brochures and marketing materials. After she collected a handful of customers through that (while still using the materials), why would she need the business name where she can probably continue most of that work as an independent, and just get another cellphone number. for the customer it wouldnt matter at all.

So if the paper had used the word loan it there would have been a judgment made? I am very confused because the document specifically stated that a $500 interest would be owed and stated the frequency for it to be paid etc.

[@templeknight777]

Yes. Very true. Interest owed should be paid at the frequency stated in the contract.

[@valynteena]

This case would have been positive for the plaintiff if there was a signed written agreement stating that the returns from the investment should come in within a certain period and if not, the invested money should be returned. If there was an agreement like this written and signed by both parties, J J would have ruled in the plaintiff's favor. I think this could be a warning to people giving money to an individual or company for investment. There should be a time frame either 3 months, 6 months, or 1 year when the investment should start producing returns and there should be an agreement for the invested money to be returned if this doesn't happen.

[@viruceae]

Thats how Investement scams happen. Invite people to invest money to the company and make it grow in time. The last thing the investors will know is that the company has gone bankrupt and there goes the money.

[@mollygriffith5678]

This two ripped off the plaintiff and who knows how many more people. No way would a marketing guy do the work for free two years after an investment was made in the business. The plaintiff said she gave the money in 2011 but the guy said did not do any work until 2013. What did the defense use the money for during that time? My guess is this guy did brochures years later because the two of them ran the scam. Now they can claim the business ran out of money and they closed. Truth is that the defendant is still running the business.

Did anyone else notice that the defendant said the money was invested in December 2011, but the date on the little contract between her and the plaintiff is dated January of 2014? Seems to me like the plaintiff started bothering the defendant about the money, which is evident by the defendant's complains at the end, and to pacify her the defendant quickly wrote something up. I know that doesn't change that it still makes the money an investment rather than a loan, but why write something up claiming potential quarterly gains for a company that by then was going or had gone under? Makes things look very suspicious and I think would be more proof of the defendant scamming that woman out of her money.
