Nobody seems to have seen my post yesterday. When i joined his 2nd 'turtle' group 2 years ago, i sent my $500 to someone called L.A Knowles, not the Jackson Fortress account which later people are reporting.

Maybe L.A Knowles is his real name?

All of you guys should really get together and start a thread here "Where is Jacko" and start pooling your resources and share your information and see if you can track this guy down.

Not total up to 100k, several of his turtles gave him 100k each with a guaranteed return of 30% per annum and the guy was so nice that if the return would ever drop below 30, he would make it up out of his own pocket. I mean how could one resist? He could not even get his basic math right, he paid out 30% a year in 7.5% quarterly returns guaranteed, but 7.5% quarterly is actually 34% a year, ah well bit too late to argue the finer points of his "fund" documents.

The funny bit is though, there are still several of them here defending him....

I said some defensive statements, but I am definitely not defending him if its proven the guy is a big time scammer. I only recently started to read this tread, and more I read, I must admit it is looking grim for investors.

The best solution is to file a complaint to the FBI for fraud and money laundering, if one of you is US citizen.

After that, all of you can send your complaints to the FBI to connect them with the initial one (knowing the case number) so they can start an international investigation using their local bureau from Hk or Singapore. Also you can send them all yours e-mails so they can look for IP or other data.

best regards,

Personally, I've no desire to track him down - i've no money invested with him, i was just in his 2nd group for a year but i wish everyone else good luck in their quest.

I live in Asia now and have couple of my buddies living in Singapore..send all his Singapore mobile numbers here.. Let me see what I can do to track those numbers... The law is pretty strict in HK for choosing subscribers for a PPM. According to the law subscribers net worth has to be above $500,000 or so to subscriber... I also think there is limit on the lowest investment amount.. I am checking this one...

I second this idea. It's easier if all work together. Also it gives the others some comfort if the know they are not alone.

Just stumbled on this thread and not sure if this has been suggested yet.

Get an IP check from FF for jacko.
This will lead to the ISP he used.
The ISP will have the personal details for him such as address etc.

If he is clever he might have used a proxy sever to disguise his real IP Addresse. You can even build a proxy chain which makes it almost impossible to track you down.

Well simply ask your bank if they can charge back to money you send to him.
It's higly unlikely that it will work but it won't hurt you to contact your bank and see if they can do something.
this works only if the money has not arrived at the bank of the beneficiary.
international wires (eg europe to asia) will take just 3-5 working days.

He's been on FF for a long time. I would hazard a guess that in 2007 his IP was legit. If so, tracking him will be easy.
And yes, everyone who's been scammed should contact their bank immediately. Banks will have far more clout in trapping fraudsters than a bunch of Internet guys and gals.

I don't know if ISPs keep connection details for such a long time. Imagine what a huge load of data this would create for the company with millions of customers.

There is such a wall of silence - notably from FF and other investors. I realise a few investors have come forth and said that they haven't received their money so that leads me to believe that (1) he didn't have that many investors (2) investors are too scared to say something on the thread because they think if they do they won't get their money from Jacko (3) they are too embarrassed to admit that they invested in the fund or (4) some investors have been paid out.

If someone has been paid out or if someone took advantage of the quarterly profit returns, please speak out.

C'mon Twee and FF. You extracted all the posts warning people that this was a scam, now it's time to help those that have been affected.
Nothing worth having is easy.

I personally have contacted him to comment on this. I hope we will see a reaction soon. People here could use some moral support at least.

But let's be honest we all thought he was just a 700.00 signal service, this is now the first time that it comes to light that he actually talked people into parting with 100k to "invest" in his "fund". This changes the landscape considerably. I really don't think that if FF and Twee would have been aware of this earlier this would have had the same outcome.

I know of a couple investors who did take advantage of the profit returns. I don't know about anyone who has been paid out so far.

That's a typical Ponzi setup, pay out a few so they then become his ambassadors. Has anybody got their 100k returned to them though.

Look, i work in quarry bay, the company bus will pass wan chai in around 45 minutes. it's 5:55pm/hkt. i'm off in 5 minutes. and the company bus will arrive at 6:15pm/hkt. it will pass the aforementioned address at around 6:30pm/hkt.

Since i received some e-mails asking me to help, and seeing it is a friday, and also much thanks to TREAD on this forum for being so helpful to me which makes my dumb ass heart all bubbly to help other ppl (he's very helpful to everyone from what i can see) i have decided to adhere to this request.

but guys, please understand...your money....it is gone. c'mon...let's face it...

anyways...will post again in around 4 hours time on my findings.
