The Columbus Dispatch<\/a> tells the story of Edward I. Campbell, an investment advisor who told his prospective clients that he was a Navy SEAL;<\/p>\n

The Reynoldsburg man boasted to his clients that he was a former Navy [SEAL] who had international business expertise and he could deliver huge returns on their investments.<\/p>\n

But federal investigators discovered another story. Edward I. Campbell, 41, never had been a Navy Seal or international businessman. Through his investment firm, Rosewood Consulting LLC in Baltimore, Ohio, Campbell had overseen a $1.4 million investment-fraud scheme with at least 44 victims.<\/p>\n

Campbell yesterday in U.S. District Court, pleaded guilty to federal charges of money laundering and wire fraud in connection with the scam.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Campbell signed on 44 clients who he ripped off – he agreed in court to pay restitution… $1,408,854. The article says that he faces 30 years in the gray bar hotel.<\/p>\n

From Warning Blog<\/a>;<\/p>\n

First example, on February 12, 2013 we talked to a victim\/investor (Rob) who was brought into one of Edward I. Campbell\u2019s programs in March 2012 under the same structure as when we came in on July 31, 2012.<\/p>\n

Both of our programs were structured the same way. In 10 business days after money was wired to Edward I. Campbell\u2019s account both victim\/investor (Rob) and ourselves were promised to receive an enormous return on our initial investment.<\/p>\n

In victim\/investor (Rob\u2019s) case, he invested Forty Five Thousand Dollars ($45,000) and in 10 days he was promised to receive a minimum of Four Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($450,000).<\/p>\n

In our case, we invested One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) and were promised in 10 business days to receive Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000).<\/p>\n

In both cases Edward I. Campbell failed to pay the sum promised.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, well, you can’t cheat an honest man. If it sounds too good to be true, it is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
