Some close to Ross are investors and attended the May 30 meeting, so perhaps
not. Maybe each of us can keep a separate folder of evidence we provide to the
various authorities and agencies. Then when needed it would be easier to
access. (Everyone probably does that already, but I find a lot of great info in
some of the emails and have copied those to a sub-folder for reference.)
Thanks again, Julia.

I pointed them to the report. I didn’t get to talk to an agent, just their
phone clerk who did not seem terribly bright. I can only hope that the
information I gave got into the right bucket. I referenced the call I made
in June and she gave me the spiel about how they couldn’t tell me if an
investigation was ongoing. She took the URL for the report, and the
Receiver’s contact information.
I also wrote the Receiver this morning and called him out on what he has
said about priority of claims (in contravention to the statute), and the
outright lie he wrote in the report about not having the documents for the
marina transaction (all were submitted with our proofs of claim, with
additional correspondence pointing to the facts). I finished up with citing
his prior flouting of the RCW as documented in objections and observed that
the receivership appears to need more oversight than is currently in force.
I copied my attorney and that securities investigator.

Chris, if you have not done so already, please send the Receiver's
report to whoever you are speaking with at the FBI. This is
racketeering which is a federal crime, and the assets of Miles and
family could be seized as the proceeds of the criminal enterprise.

Marycarol Feldman, Maureen Minsker and Ross Miles are siblings. Tooty
is Romelle Wampler. She used to be Romelle Minsker. She is Miles
Minsker’s sister. Their mother is Maureen Minsker, Marycarol’s
roommate. Larry Wampler — also an investor in the pools, is Tooty’s
exhusband.
I made contact to see if her state of need had resolved. It had. She
said at the Red Lion In that she was 100 percent reliant on the checks
coming from the pools. She was furious and fearful.
When I inquired about her financial ability to survive yesterday— she
said she was fine. She said “there are other investments”. She did
not have those on the day of the gathering at the Red Lion Inn I am
certain.
As this debacle has been executed by Ross and Co, he has made
provisions for Marycarol and Tooty it is clear to me. I believe he
also “is taking care of “ Larry Wampler.
Miles minsker, his nephew is in deep, as is his partner Maureen Wile.
The update to the Hamstreet site has blown the windows out and finally
we can see clearly all that we only guessed about.
I have filled out forms on line w the national website for FBI. I also
have contacted and they have recontacted and am exchanging info with
SEC.

Ugh. This is so ugly.
I had a conversation with Tooty, Ross's niece and Miles Minsker's
sister today. She texted me after I was photographed at her gated
community ringing her phone. She was distant, and there were long
silences and finally she asked how I could think Ross would lie and
that he had tried with 5 mil of his own money to make it all work and
... ignorant drivel.
But what I gleaned of interest was the difference between her tone
today and the tone the day of the Red Lion meeting in which Hamstreet
laid out their plan to 200 folks. At that meeting she was distraught,
saying she had nothing left, no money for meds even. Today she said
she was fine. I pointed out that she had said she would have to sell
her condo. She said "i'm fine" . Asked about Larry, her exhusband
(Larry Wampler) who earlier she had worried would have to sell his home
in Hawaii as he too was a member of the pools-- Tooty today said he was
fine as well. Then the nugget: "He's a member of this family as much
as the rest of us" I believe Ross is also caring for the losses of
Larry Wampler.

I think time will show that multiple members of the family pocketed

Yes it should. A federal investigation would put the kibosh on the
receivership as well.
I am still shaking my head as to why the report didn’t say something
like “ we found so many things we know to be unlawful that this has
been referred for prosecution.”
Of course, in that event the billings stop.

Just finished looking at the Hamstreet document and it's pretty
revealing. The comingling of funds, loans to individuals, over stating
property values, and it appears that a marina in Mexico had an
additional 3 million just transferred to it. When we initially invested
in AE's, we were told that they held the ONLY loan on property, only
loaned money on property that they could sell for more than they loaned
on it, immediately started foreclosure on a property that was
delinquent in making payments, were currently profitable and had been
profitable forever. The latest Hamstreet doc clearly shows a long
standing practice of deception to investors going back to at least
2012. Check out that Colorado real estate that somebody paid for, it
could have been me with money being sucked out of what ever fund had a
cash balance. What was it 90 properties they should have foreclosed on?

Notice that Hamstreet dismisses our of hand the possibility of getting
anything out of banks, title companies, etc.
Also, to me it is jaw-dropping that none of this is considered
criminal. Just how it looked at first glance (like a Ponzi scheme)
would have prevented an ethical person from accepting the engagement.
It is definitely in the territory where the lack of objectivity of the
receiver and his interest in continued billings (he is getting paid,
remember, out of the income Ross and Maureen are still making).
