1 make the allegations set forth in this complaint against the above-named defendants (together,

2 the “Defendants”).

3NATURE OF THIS ACTION

4

5 1. This action concerns violations of federal and state securities laws in the sale, or

6 offer for sale, of unregistered securities related to foreclosed residential properties in the United

7 States to investors, including Plaintiffs. These securities were promoted, offered and sold in

8 high-pressure investor seminars run by self-proclaimed investment gurus, who took commissions

9 for each sale they executed.

10 2. These residential properties underlying the securities were purchased by one or

11 more of the Defendants at wholesale for between $3,000 - $14,000 each. Then, Defendants sold,

U 12 or offered for sale, securities related to these foreclosed properties by promising huge returns byP.

a13 reselling the properties under land installment contracts which would generate monthly incomeF d

14 for the investors.

15 3. Defendants sold, or offered for sale, the purchase of specific properties that were

z 16 promised to be deeded to Plaintiffs. These properties were offered or sold to Plaintiffs together

17 with a “management contract” whereby a separate company would find a buyer for the property

18 on a land installment contract. The Defendants promised that each property would become

19 “cash-flowing” within 6 months – Plaintiffs would hold a note against the property, and receive

20 monthly revenue from the new occupants’ monthly payments. The bundle of the properties and

21 the corresponding management contracts are referred to herein as the “Property Contracts”.

22 4. The Property Contracts were “securities” within the meaning of Federal and

23 California securities laws.

24 5. As set forth below, Defendants offered and sold the Property Contracts without

25 registering them, or qualifying for an applicable exemption – and, consequently, members of the

26 proposed class who purchased Property Contracts within the relevant limitations periods are

27 entitled to rescission under federal and/or state law.

28 6. Defendant also made material misstatements or omissions in connection with the

19. Defendant Eker provides investment advice through various seminars held15

throughout North America. Among other things, Defendant Eker personally ran an investmentZ 16

advice program called “Millionaires School”, in which he charged attendees over $1000 in17

“tuition”.18

20. Plaintiff Kwong attended Millionaires School in Los Angeles in 2007, where19

Defendant Eker personally led the seminar. At that seminar, Defendant Eker introduced a large20

number of so-called “investment opportunities”. Defendant Eker specifically told the attendees21

introducing.23

21. At the 2007 Los Angeles Millionaires School event, Defendant Eker introduced24

Defendant Lathigee from FIC as an extremely knowledgeable individual and told the attendees at25

Millionaires School that investors could make a lot of money with Lathigee. Defendant Eker also26

said that he trusted Lathigee, and that he personally had made a lot of money in investing with27

him. As a result of these endorsements, Plaintiff Kwong became a member of FIC.28


Case No. CV


1 22. As a member, Plaintiff Kwong received solicitations and information about

2 investment opportunities from FIC. In the summer of 2008, she received a mailing that FIC

3 would conduct a seminar in San Francisco on August 5 2008 at Marriott Courtyard San

4 Francisco downtown hotel (the “FIC San Francisco Sales Event”), which Plaintiff Kwong

5 attended.

6 23. Plaintiff Sharma also attended the FIC San Francisco Sale event, and he, like

7 Plaintiff Kwong, also became aware of FIC through Eker.

8 24. Plaintiff Sharma attended a wealth seminar called the “Millionaire Mind –

9 Intensive”, run by Defendant Eker and his company Peak Potentials Training, in May 2008. Eker

10 gave a personal presentation in San Francisco May 30 – June 1, 2008 which was attended by

11 Plaintiff Sharma. At that event, Defendant Eker announced that FIC would be conducting a

U 12 meeting in San Francisco on June 23, 2008, and Defendant Eker strongly encouraged attendeesP.

a 13 to attend.F d

14 25. Defendant Eker gave free tickets to attendees to attend the FIC San Francisco

15 meeting for June 23, 2008. Defendant Eker also strongly endorsed Defendant Lathigee and said

Z 16 that he was a “whiz” on global economics and financial investments, and that he (Eker) had

17 made a lot of money with Defendant Lathigee. Eker specifically stated that he trusted Lathigee’s

18 investment decisions, and that Eker invested a lot of money with Lathigee and that others should

19 follow suit. Plaintiff Sharma attended the June 23, 2008 FIC meeting in San Francisco, and

20 signed up as a FIC member. Thereafter, Sharma received an invitation to attend the FIC San

21 Francisco Sales Event, which Plaintiff attended on August 5, 2008.

22 The FIC San Francisco Sales Event.

23 26. At the FIC San Francisco Sales Event, Defendant Lathigee gave a presentation on

24 the Property Contracts. Defendant Lathigee also introduced Allan Andrus from Defendant

25 Mohawk, who proceeded to lay out the terms of the Property Contracts, with Defendant Lathigee

26 present at all times. Defendant Lathigee and Mohawk distributed an information sheet that stated

27 that investors would “make INCREDIBLE RETURNS within 12-18 months”. The information

28 sheet is attached hereto as Exhibit A, and stated the following:


Case No. CV


1 a. “INVEST FOR $18,500 and receive clean, clear, marketable title”

2 b. “we GUARANTEE property value to be at least $45,000”

3 c. “our CURRENT AVERAGE property value is $55000”

4 d. “make INCREDIBLE RETURNS within a 12 - 18 months. Or take advantage

5 of the option to keep passive cash flow of approximately $300 per month.”

6 e. “PASSIVE INVESTMENTS, managed by experienced property management

7 company.”

8 f. “This great passive by lends itself to multiple purchases with little

9 investment.”

10 g. “INVEST NOW, SEE AMAZING RETURNS.”

11 27. Defendants FIC, Lathigee and Mohawk described in detail the offer as follows:

U12 a. United States financial institutions sold foreclosed properties at reduced prices

P.

a13 in bulk in order to write them off their books and minimize incurring furtherF d

14 costs;

15 b. Mohawk purchased 400 to 500 foreclosed homes, sight -unseen at a time from

Z 16 the foreclosing financial institutions.

17 c. The investor buys a home from Mohawk for $17,500 and receives clear title

18 on a home within 30 days.

19 d. The investor pays $1,000 to a management company, Pro;

20 e. Pro would inspect the home to determine if it is sellable for-profit, or if it is

21 suitable for a land installment contract.

22 f. If the house is suitable for a land installment contract, Pro will find a

23 buyer/occupant for the home. Pro also qualifies the buyers.

24 g. The investor holds the note on the property and collects income from the new

25 occupants.

26 h. Mohawk guarantees that if the investor’s property is not sold within six

27 months, Mohawk will exchange it for property that is “cash flowing”.

28 28. Defendant Lathigee stated that he would not offer this investment opportunity


Case No. CV


1 unless “at the end of the day the system will work to a point where the majority of the homes are

2 resold and there is a market for the notes”.

3 29. Defendants Lathigee and Mohawk provide a presentation on projected returns on

4 the $18,500 investment as follows:

5 a. the investors note develops a worth of $45,000 based on the calculations of

6 monthly payments of $300, and 30 year amortization at 10% interest.

7 b. Once the note is “seasoned”, anywhere from 6 to 18 months, it can be offered

8 for sale-thereby generating a substantial return for the investor if the investor

9 chooses to sell it rather than hold the note.

10 30. Defendant Lathigee and Mohawk created a sense of urgency at the FIC San

11 Francisco Sales Event, stating that there were not enough properties for all of the attendees.

U 12 Lathigee and Mohawk encouraged the attendees to purchase their properties quickly on a first-

a13 come first-served basis.F d

14 31. Based on the representations of Defendant Lathigee and Mohawk, Plaintiff

15 Sharma purchased two properties, and Plaintiff Kwong purchased one property. A total of 103

Z 16 investors purchased 146 homes at the FIC San Francisco Sales Event.

17 32. At the FIC San Francisco Sales Event, Plaintiffs Sharma and Kwong each entered

18 into two contracts; first, a “Bulk Foreclosure Purchasing Agreement” for purchase of the house,

19 and second, a “Management Agreement” with Pro Financial, LLC.

20 33. An example of the Bulk Foreclosure Purchasing Agreement is attached hereto as

21 Exhibit B and provides as follows:

22 a. Investor to pay Mohawk $17,500.

23 b. Mohawk provides a foreclosed property and transfers clear and marketable

24 title to the investor.

25 c. Mohawk will exchange the property if an occupant cannot be contracted to

26 purchase the property within six months from the time of the markings on his

27 properties.

28 34. An example of the Management Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit C and


Case No. CV


1 provides as follows:

2 a. Investor to pay $1000 to Pro.

3 b. Pro to prepare the property for sale and display signs thereon,

4 c. Pro to research local market occupant, and manage the collection of all

5 mortgage payments.

6 35. On August 6, 2008, the day after the FIC San Francisco Sales Event, Defendants

7 Lathigee and Mohawk gave substantially the same presentation in Vancouver, British Columbia.

8 That presentation was attended by an investigator from the Superintendent of Real Estate of the

9 Province of British Columbia, who prepared a detailed report and order which is attached hereto

10 as Exhibit D. That order recites statements made by Defendants Lathigee and Mohawk in

11 Vancouver that were identical to those made the night before at the FIC San Francisco Sales

U12 Event.

14 36. Contrary to the contractual promises and oral representations made by Defendant

15 FIC, FICFF, Lathigee, and Mohawk. Plaintiffs Sharma and Kwong never received any income,

z 16 nor even title to any property, as promised under the Property Contracts.

17 37. In September 2008, Plaintiff Sharma was contacted by an entity called Go Invest

18 Wisely (“GIW”) and was told that GIW had assumed the business of Defendant Mohawk. GIW

19 advised Plaintiff Sharma that two foreclosed properties had been allocated to him. But when

20 Plaintiff Sharma asked for a deed of title, GIW stated that it would not produce a deed of title

21 until the property was income-producing.

22 38. On March 4, 2009, six months after Plaintiff Sharma purchased his properties, he

23 contacted GIW to inquire as to the status of his properties. At that time, he was told that GIW

24 had no information on the properties that had been allocated to him. Finally, on March 24, 2009,

25 GIW sent photographs and inspection reports for 1 of Sharma’s properties. In April 2009,

26 Sharma followed up multiple times with GIW to find out details about the second property and to

27 find out why there was no “cash-flow” from his two Property Contracts as promised in the Bulk

28 Foreclosure Agreement. When Plaintiff Sharma asked for his properties to be exchanged for


Case No. CV


1 properties which were income flowing (in accordance with the promises in the Bulk Foreclosure

2 Agreement), GIW said that they could not do so quote because they are all “taken". Starting in

3 April 2009, Plaintiff Sharma asked GIW for a full refund. GIW refused, claiming, among other

4 things, that Defendants Eker, FIC and Mohawk had already taken commissions from the

5 purchase prices paid by Plaintiff Sharma. Moreover, GIW advised Sharma that FIC told GIW

6 not to make any refunds.

7 39. Starting in the summer of 2009, Plaintiff Sharma engaged with Defendants

8 Lathigee and Hess by electronic mail in order to seek a refund of his purchase monies. During

9 this correspondence, Defendant Hess and Lathigee made a number of admissions concerning the

10 Property Contacts - including the fact that GIW was liquidating poor quality homes in order to

11 purchase better homes, at higher prices. But neither Lathigee nor Hess could explain how such

U12 purchases could be financed without reducing the total number of homes that had been purchased

P.

a13 on behalf of, and allocated to, individual investors. At the same time, throughout 2009, GIW

14 continued promoting the sale of Property Contracts through various seminars and through a

15 website called www.junkhouseriches.com.

z 16 40. Alarmed by the statements, Plaintiff Sharma started an online discussion group

17 for unhappy investors. In response to this discussion group, Defendants GIW and Hess posted

18 an official statement on August 7, 2009 concerning the investments (the “GIW Official

19 Statement”).

20 41. The GIW Official Statement is attached hereto as Exhibit E. It provides a detailed

21 history concerning the involvement of FIC, GIW, Hess and Mohawk:

22 a. GIW is owned by Tyrell Gray and Brad Hess;

23 b. The Property Contracts were, in fact, conceived by GIW, and Mohawk was

24 just a sales and marketing entity that presented the “GIW process” to large

25 groups of people.

26 c. Beginning in 2008, GIW was purchasing large numbers of foreclosed

27 properties in bulk sales in order to supply Mohawk.

28 d. Pro was started in the summer of 2008 by, among others, the owners of GIW


Case No. CV


1 (Tyrell and Hess);

2 e. GIW knew that there could be problems and delays in having a foreclosed

3 property occupied by a new owner due to the condition of these foreclosed

4 properties. For this reason, “GIW did not think that it would be fair to buyers

5 to deed a property and pass all the related liabilities of the property to the

6 buyer without the assurance that the property had an occupant placed in the

7 home creating cash flow.”

8 f. As of February 2009, Defendant Pro Financial was managing 1267 properties.

9 However, of these, only 112 had an occupant on the property.

10 g. Mohawk sold 135 properties during investors meetings sponsored by Eker.

11 h. FIC sold 995 properties during investor events sponsored by FIC.

U12 42. The GIW Official Statement also admitted that the principal reason the

P.

a13 investments were not working was because many of the properties were “bad” properties. As aF d

14 result, “GIW is left to liquidate the bad properties to create capital in order to purchase

15 replacement properties”. In effect, this has created a pyramid scheme wherein mony from later

z 16 investors is used to pay early investors.

17 Developments after August 2008

18 43. In early September 2008, Defendant Eker sent a note to his investors cautioning

19 them to exercise careful review over the Property Contracts that Eker had promoted to them (the

20 “Disclaimer”), which is attached hereto as Exhibit F. Indeed, Eker had good reason to know

21 well before September 2008 that the Property Contracts he was promoting were risky.

22 44. In 2008, Eker took Mohawk on “road shows” promoting the Property Contracts.

23 As of August 2009, Mohawk had sold 135 Properties at these “road show” events – and collected

24 commissions on each sale. However, discontented investors started contacting Eker seeking

25 refunds of the money paid for Property Contracts in the summer of 2008. This prompted Eker to

26 issue the Disclaimer which contains many cautions that Eker knew – but failed to disclose – at

27 the time that he was promoting Property Contracts.

28 45. The Disclaimer contained the following cautions about the Property Contracts:

- 10 - Class Action Complaint for Violations of the Securities Act of 1933 Sharma v. Freedom Investment Club.

Case No. CV

Case5:1 0-cv-01 172-JW Document1 Filed03/19/10 Page1 1 of 24

-So, as you evaluate purchasing foreclosure properties from

1 Mohawk, please keep in mind some additional information that wehave learned: Not all the properties seem to have come directly

2 from “banks.” Some of these properties were available from othersources, such as the MLS, before Mohawk acquired them. Some

3 seem to have been available at a lower “gross” price, however,according to Mohawk, the difference is due to getting “clean and

4 clear” title and a home that is in “livable” condition. Mohawk alsostates that its “program” offers a “guarantee” that should your

5 home not be sellable, they will replace it with one that is. Asalways, you need to determine whether the purchase price from

6 Mohawk makes sense today given the prior pricing of theseproperties. Mohawk can advise you of any liens, debts or other

7 expenses that were due on the property that increased its cost of

8acquisition.

-Some of these houses will be easily matched with tenant/buyers,

9 others may not and there is no absolute time table to guarantee

10when you can expect cash flow from a property.

-The market for “notes” from tenant/buyers is relativey untested

11 and the future cannot be predicted with any certainty. Mohawkappears to be confident the notes can be sold.

U12

P. -Whether a buyer/tenant will be able or willing to maintain the

a13 property to your standards is not guaranteed and it is possible youF a may incur expenses for maintenance and repairs. You own this

14 home.

15 -As you might expect, it is impossible to guess how and exactlywhen the local markets where these properties are located will

z 16 rebound and values will increase.

17 -You might want to ask Mohawk for information about otherinvestors who have used this program. Speak to these referrals to

18 learn about their experiences.

19 -Become an expert on “values” in the market place so that youhave a real understanding about how the purchase price stacks up

20 against market value and how much “equity” you are gaining. Thisis important given that Mohawk uses a popular web based

21 appraisal system that may or may not be perfectly accurate in

22today’s ever-changing marketplace.

-Finally, always talk to your advisers – lawyer, accountant,

23 financial planner. Ask for their advice and be certain that this type

24of investment fits in your personal financial plan and portfolio.

-If you need further information, go directly to the source and

25 speak to the people at Mohawk. Be sure that all of your questionsare answered.

2646. Prior to September 2008, Eker never made any of the above cautions known to

27any of the investors he promoted the Property Contracts to. Had Plaintiffs received this email

28


Case No. CV


1 prior to the FIC San Francisco Sales Event on August 05, 2008, neither Plaintiff would have

2 purchased the Property Contracts.

3 47. Eker also lied in his Disclosure when he stated that he was not affiliated with

4 Mohawk. The Disclosures states:

5 It is important, however, to be clear that Peak Potentials has noaffiliation with any of our guest speakers’ private businesses and

6 how they handle their own programs or the administration of thoseprograms. If a student chooses to participate in a guest trainer’s

7 additional offerings they should do so in the same way as werecommend they purchase anything else, by doing their own

8 research and due diligence.

9 Also, please note that Peak Potentials and T. Harv Eker do notformally endorse any guest speaker or other company at our

10 events. We simply provide a “forum” for learning

11 In fact, Eker took commissions on each Property Contract that was sold at his events.

U12 And instead of simply providing a “forum”, Eker shamelessly promoted the Property Contracts

P.

a13 in order to line his own pockets.F d

14 48. In February 2010, FIC (through a subsidiary) sued GIW. Mohawk, Pro and their

15 principals alleging that the Defendants had failed to perform obligations under various contracts.

z 16 FIC Foreclosure Fund, Ltd. v. Go Invest Wisely, LLC (Case No. 10-00081, filed Feb. 3, 2010,

17 C.D. Utah). In one contract, dated May 12, 2008 (3 months before Plaintiffs purchased their

18 Property Contracts at the FIC San Francisco Sales Event), FIC’s subsidiary paid $1,400,000 for

19 100 homes (the “FIC – Mohawk Agreement”, which is attached hereto as Exhibit G). The

20 agreement was signed on behalf of Mohawk by Brad Hess (who also owns GIW and Pro).

21 Under the terms of the FIC – Mohawk Agreement, Mohawk was to deliver “clear and marketable

22 title” to these properties, presumably within the same 30 day closing period that Lathigee had

23 represented to Plaintiffs at the FIC San Francisco Sales Event. But Mohawk never delivered any

24 of these properties to FICFF. Meanwhile, Defendants FIC and Lathigee actively promoted and

25 sold the Property Contracts to Plaintiffs in August 2008 – even though Mohawk had failed to

26 deliver the properties to FIC under the FIC- Mohawk Agreement within the 30 day delivery

27 period expected thereunder.

1PLAINTIFF CLASS ACTION ALLEGATIONS

2

3 49. Plaintiffs bring this action on behalf of the following proposed class: all

4 purchasers of Property Contacts from or through any of the Defendants.

5 Excluded from the proposed class are Defendants; any entity in which Defendants have

6 or have a controlling interest; any of Defendants’ officers, directors, legal representatives or

7 successors; any Judge assigned to this action and his or her immediate family; and anyone who

8 timely requests exclusion from the class.

9 50. This action may be maintained on behalf of the class proposed above under the

10 criteria of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

11 51. Numerositv. Based on FIC’s own documents, as of August 2008, FIC had sold

U12 over 1,700 homes, with each purchaser buying approximately 1.4 homes. On information and

P.

a13 belief, there at least 1,200 purchasers across the United States and Canada who have purchased

14 the Property Contracts. Such a large number of purchasers, dispersed over a large geographic

15 area, makes joinder impracticable.

z 16 52. Commonalitv and Predominance. Common questions of law and fact exist as to

17 members of the proposed class and predominate over questions only affecting individual class

18 members. These common questions include:

19 a. Whether the Defendants were “sellers” within the meaning of Federal

20 securities laws;

21 b. Whether, and when, the Defendants, and each of them, knew or ought to have

22 known that the foreclosed properties which were the subject of the Property

23 Contracts were “bad” properties;

24 c. Whether the offering materials and other representations made to class

25 members by Defendants made false and misleading representations of

26 material facts, or omitted to disclose material facts necessary for the

27 statements that were made to be not misleading.

28 53. Tvpicalitv. The claims of the Plaintiffs are typical of the claims of all members of


Case No. CV


1 the class since the representations and omissions of material facts were made to all class

2 members through the use of misleading offering materials and statements.

3 54. Adequacy. Plaintiffs adequately represent the members of the proposed class

4 because their interests do not conflict with those of the members of the class. Each Plaintiff has

5 been an organizing force in the grass-roots movement among members of the proposed class to

6 retain counsel and protect the interests of the proposed class.

7 55. Class-Wide Injunctive Relief. Defendants have acted or refused to act on

8 grounds generally applicable to the class, including, especially, refusing to transfer title to

9 purchased properties to each purchaser thereof, in accordance with the terms of the Property

10 Contracts. Therefore, it is appropriate to grant final and injunctive relief with respect to the

11 members of the class as a whole.

U12 56. Deficiency of Assets. It is likely that there will be insufficient assets to satisfy

P.

a13 any judgment against Defendants arising from this action. Accordingly, a class action isF d

It's easy to buy property for cents on the dollar today-the problem lies in what then to do with it. There's upkeep,management, selling and/or renting. There are many factors that make even the most tempting situation less than desirable.

What if the exit strategy was built in9 What if on the buy, you knew what would happen when, and the variables were taken care of?This investment takes rare of those variables.

(b) The financial institution is not aware at this time who made the deposits into the

WBIC account.

(c) A letter, written on the letterhead of Escrow Specialists, Inc. ("Escrow") signed by

a "JME Simpson" on behalf of Escrow accompanied the deposits. The letter

purportedly authorizes the credit union to allow the deposit of the cheques,

payable to Escrow, into the WBIC account.

(d) The deposits consisted of approximately 180 cheques in varying amounts.

However, it appears that all the cheques were in multiples of $17,500. The

cheques were made payable to Escrow, "Mohawk" and "Pro Financial".

(e) Where the cheque was initially made payable to Mohawk or Pro Financial these

names were crossed out and Escrow was inserted.

(f) The cheques showed different payors and were drawn on various British

Columbia and other Canadian financial institutions.

(g) Financial institution staff have determined through conversations with the

principals of the WBIC the following:

(a) Mohawk has a relationship with several United States banks whereby

Mohawk will purchase foreclosed on properties;

(b) Mohawk thorough its affiliation with the Freedom Investment Club runs

presentations in British Columbia and elsewhere in Canada called

"I nvestfests."

(c) The purpose of the Investfests is to solicit British Columbia and Canadian

residents to purchase these foreclosed properties in the USA.

(d) Potential purchasers are asked to pay $17,500. In addition, purchasers

are told that for an extra $1,000 they can enter into a property

management agreement with Pro Financial who will undertake to find

tenants for their property.

(h) When the financial institution management staff became aware of the deposits, it

was determined that the deposits contravened credit union policy in that the

credit union does not allow the deposit of unendorsed third party cheques.

3. As a result, the financial institution decided to place an institutional hold on the deposits

pending its own review.

4. On August 4, 2008, the office of the Superintendent of Real Estate ("Superintendent")

began an investigation of a real estate "investment" promotion in Vancouver advertised

on the Freedom investment Club website www.ficinvestors.com (the TIC Website").

8. The FIC Website is registered in the name of FIC Investment Ltd., with an address of

Suite 990, Box 12091, 555 West Hastings, Vancouver, British Columbia. The FIC

Website states that the mailing address for the Freedom Investment Club is Suite 990,

Box 12091, 555 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC V6B 4N5.

9. The FIC Website advertised a "Vancouver FIC foreclosure event". An Investigator

reviewed the website and registered online to attend the presentation slated for August

6, 2008, at 7:00 PM at the Marriott Hotel, 1128 West Hastings Street, Vancouver,

British Columbia. The FIC Website advertised that a tour by the presenters was

scheduled during the period August 4 to August 12, 2008, and would include Los

Angeles, San Francisco, Edmonton, Calgary, New York, and Toronto.

10. The Investigator attended the meeting room on August 6, 2008 where the presentation

was to take place, checked in, and received a brochure showing some recent properties

listed by Mohawk Diversified, LLC ("Mohawk"). The brochure showed a website address

of www.mohawkreo.com, and a contact telephone number 1-800-928-2713. The

brochure, among other things, stated the following:

- INVEST FOR $18,500 & receive a clean, clear, marketable title

- we GUARANTEE property value to be at least $45,000

- our CURRENT AVERAGE property value is $55,000

- make INCREDIBLE RETURNS within a 12 -18 month period or take

advantage of the option to keep passive cash flow of approximately $300

per month


Page 6

PASSIVE INVESTMENT, managed by experienced property

management company

This great passive buy lends itself to multiple purchases with little investment.

Invest in this opportunity. Take advantage of the sub-prime lemon, without taking

advantage of people. Invest now, see amazing returns.

11. The brochure contained pictures of a number of properties including the following

information:

Market value: $104,544Location: Cincinnati, OhioDescription: 2-1/2 storey buildingTerms: $500 down, $325 a monthNote price: $59,000

Market value: $50,399Location: Indianapolis, IndianaDescription: 1 storey, 2 bed, 1 bath, finished basement, car detached

garageTerms: $500 down, $380 a monthNote price: $44,500

12. Approximately 150 persons attended the presentation.

13. The first portion of the presentation was given by a person identifying himself as Mike

Lathigee ("Lathigee"), CEO of the FIC Investment Club in Vancouver. Lathigee stated

that in San Francisco, the night before, 103 investors attended his presentation and 146

homes were purchased. San Francisco is the newest chapter of the Club.

14. Lathigee then made some general comments about the U.S. economy, the rate of

default by homeowners, and that current foreclosure laws in the U.S. could change, thus

creating problems for "the Club". He then provided the following information:

• The homes are handled by a property management company.

• The demand for these homes is overwhelming.

• In the last 45 days the Club has sold over 1,700 homes.


Page 7

650 signs have gone up on homes purchased by investors in the last seven

days.

• There will be multiple opportunities to get involved. Other meetings are planned

in the fall.

• An average of one home per person is sold at Club meetings.

• 50 homes were allocated for the Vancouver meeting on a first come first served

basis.

• The home purchase will complete within 30 days.

Other investors will go on a waiting list, but they will still get a home although it

will take longer — from 60 to 90 days.

If no home is found, the investment is returned.

• The Club makes approximately $1,500 per home.

• Based on projections, 10,000 homes will be sold which will mean $15 million for

the FIC Group of Companies.

• All Club shareholders share in the proceeds.

The caveat is that laws in the U.S. are changing, and there are pressures to

prevent foreclosures on lower end homes. Laws are likely to change early in the

new year.

He will not allow money to just sit for months on end if a home cannot be offered.

• The Club cannot be both the property management company and be involved in

the ownership, as this would be considered a securities matter. The property

management firm and the actual ownership must be completely separate, which

is why there are two entities and a number of people involved in this process.

• This requirement is due to securities regulations.


Page 8

• Because of the high level of trust in the Club by the members, the process is very

well received.

• At the last meeting in Toronto, 120 persons attended and purchased more than

120 homes.

15. Lathigee then introduced Alan Andrus ("Andrus") as representing Mohawk, stating that

Andrus had extensive experience in real estate development. Lathigee explained that

Andrus was going to explain how the process actually works.

16. Andrus described the steps in the foreclosure process in the U.S. as follows:

• The homeowner gets behind in his mortgage payments.

• A Notice of Default ("NOD") to the homeowner is issued by the lender, which is

published in the newspaper.

• The property is sold at a foreclosure sale, or if no offers are made the lender

(financial institution) will sell them in bulk at reduced prices in order to write them

off their books, and minimize incurring further costs.

• Andrus provided the following information about the bulk purchase system:

o Mohawk buys blocks of 400 to 500 foreclosed/distressed homes at a timefrom the financial institutions.

o The homes are sight unseen, and typically are encumbered with tax liens

and other charges against the property.

o www.mohawkreo.com is the website for Mohawk.

o Mohawk is involved in the process of clearing the titles of the properties.

• For the investor the process is as follows:

o The investor buys a home from Mohawk.

o The investor receives a clear title on that home.


Page 9

o Mohawk takes the time to clear the title, and the investor receives that

title with a warranty.

o It is not a quit claim.

o Mohawk uses a management company, Pro Financial, who helps clear

the title. The property is inspected to determine whether it is sellable for a

profit.

o If an investor buys a home that is not sellable, Mohawk will exchange it.

o Pro Financial finds a buyer and occupant for the investor's home.

o Pro Financial will evaluate the neighbourhood and put up a sign on the

property indicating that it is for sale for $500 down and $400 a month.

• Pro Financial creates a mortgage between you and the new buyer with

100% financing. Pro Financial qualifies the buyers.

• The investor ultimately becomes "the bank".

17. Andrus then gave a PowerPoint presentation with time lines, and projected returns on

the $18,500 investment.

18. After finishing his presentation, Andrus re-introduced Lathigee, who provided the

following information regarding the mortgages in the form of Promissory Notes:

• The mortgages (Promissory Notes) are based on a 30-year amortization at 10%

interest.

• The Promissory Note becomes worth $45,000 based on the calculations of

monthly payments of $300.

• Once the Promissory Note is "seasoned", anywhere from 6 to 18 months, it is

offered for sale.

• Seasoned Promissory Notes are purchased typically at a fraction of the

calculated value.


Page 10

• There is an inherent risk in any investment.

• Lathigee stated that some investors have found that the homes they purchased

were listed on the MLS prior to foreclosure for less than the $18,500 they paid.

Lathigee explained that this is because the homes often have tax liens and other

charges placed against them which are not reflected on MILS and those charges

have to be removed.

• If the home is not sold within six months, Mohawk will exchange it.

• Lathigee stated that he would not engage in something of this magnitude unless

at the end of the day the system will work to a point where the majority of the

homes are resold and there is a market for the Promissory Notes.

• They are lobbying the U.S. Federal Housing Authority to buy the Promissory

Notes.

• The investor pays $18,500 for an unspecified property, receives $300 per month,

and pays a 10% monthly property management fee which is deducted from the

$300 per month payments.

• As the owner of the home, the investor can either sell it himself, keep it, or have

Pro Financial sell it or maintain it on the investor's behalf.

• Other offerings of foreclosed properties are planned for the fall.

19. Lathigee then inquired of his staff and was told that so far at this meeting, 27 homes had

been purchased. He reiterated that 50 investors would receive domes immediately, and

any other investors wishing to purchase would go on a waiting list.

20. At that time, Lathigee instructed his assistants to hand out the following documents to

interested purchasers:

(a) Process and Wire Transfer Instructions. That document states in part:

Please read carefully, these are your step by step process and wire transfer

instructions for the purchase of your FIC foreclosure homes) in The United

Mohawk receives the funds from the escrow agent. At a later date, Mohawk

transfers clear title of the identified property from Mohawk to the consumer.

Investigator called of Rancho Cucamonga, California, to enquire whether there

was any relationship between his companies and Mohawk or the Pro Financial Services

operating in Utah.

39. stated to the Investigator that he is a real estate agent and a mortgage broker

in California and he has had Pro Financial Services, LLC registered as a company in the

State of Nevada for many years. He does not know Mohawk, nor does he currently do

business in Utah as Pro Financial Services LLC, or Pro Financial Services, Inc.

was concerned about any connection that may be advertised using his

com pa ny.QqjWW stated he is not associated to www.mohawkreo.com ,

www.profinancialshop.com , Lathigee, or Andrus.

40. On August 15, 2008, the Investigator received a telephone call from who

advised the following:


Page 17

• He had made enquiries on his own and determined the company Pro Financial

Services, LLC operating out of Utah, was doing business under the name Pro

Financial Services, LLC without his permission since he believes the name is

confusing and there is no LLC registered in Utah.

• He says he owns the rights to the company name Pro Financial Services, LLC.

• He had contacted Pro Financial Services operating in Utah and advised a person

by the name of Mike Yosher ("Yosher") that he owns the rights to Pro Financial

Services, LLC. Yosher then asked whether something could be worked

out.

41. Approximately five minutes later on the same date, the Investigator received a telephone

call from a male who identified himself as Rob Oborn, the brother of the owner of Pro

Financial Services, Inc. (doing business as Pro Financial Services, LLC) in Utah. The

owner was identified by Rob Oborn as Mike Oborn. Rob Oborn advised that:

• He works with Mohawk in finding buyers and fielding calls for buyers of

foreclosed homes.

• His office recently moved from the Draper, Utah address to the North

Washington Boulevard address and has since moved to an address in South

Jordan, Utah.

• His company is not a licensed property management company anywhere in the

the foreclosed properties for saleability.

• He is aware of a connection to Mohawk by Lathigee and Andrus.

• His contact at Mohawk is Mike Yosher at telephone number 801-879-3760.

42. Rob Oborn was advised that providing property management services requires a licence

in British Columbia.


Page 18

43. Approximately five minutes after the tali from Rob Oborn, the Investigator received a call

from a male who identified himself as Mike Yosher, Client Services Manager for

Mohawk. Yosher advised that:

• Mohawk is a registered company in the State of Nevada and the owner of the

company is Gerald Abrams.

• He had not been in Vancouver for the presentation on August 6, 2008.

Official Statement From Go Invest Wisely, LLC and Pro Financial Services Regarding The 2008Mohawk Diversified Tour

August 7, 2009

Dear Valued Client:

Early in 2008 John Hyland (“Hyland”) contacted Tyrell Gray and Brad Hess the owners of Go InvestWisely, LLC (“GIW”) as he was interested in purchasing several homes for his Clients. At that time,he represented himself as the owner of Mohawk Diversified, LLC (“Mohawk”). Over the next fewweeks Hyland purchased several homes from GIW and chose to have these properties managed by amanagement company out of Gilbert, Arizona called BP Property Management (“BP”).

At that time GIW and its owners had purchased approximately 200 homes and were using BP tomanage their properties as well. GIW’s goal with the homes it owned was to prepare those homes tosale to third-parties under a land installment sales contract and then to sell the cash flowing property todifferent third-party interested in owning such a property. As demand for additional home purchasesincreased and as Hyland demanded more and more properties for his clients, GIW’s role changedsomewhat to a wholesale company whereby it simply provided properties to Hyland and Mohawk.

As time passed, it became apparent that BP was unable to properly manage GIW’s or Hyland’s client’sproperties. As a result, GIW started working with Pro Financial Services, Inc (“Pro”), a joint venturebetween the principals of GIW and Rob and Mike Oborn who were to be the managers and operatorsof the new property management company. Pro was started in the summer of 2008 and themanagement team showed great promise. Additionally, the company was conveniently located withinless than an hour’s drive from GIW’s office which made accountability and follow-up that mucheasier.

Hyland’s Sales Approach

Hyland generated a lot of demand to purchase properties from GIW from his ability to get in front oflarge groups of individuals interested in real estate opportunities. Hyland worked with severalindividuals and/or groups who organized events to which individuals interested in real estateopportunities were invited to attend. These individuals and groups included Harv T Eker, SunilTulsiani of Toronto and Mike Lathigee (FIC) of British Columbia. During these events, Hyland andother speakers he employed, including Tyrell Gray, Allan Andrus, Jimmy Slagel, and several others,provided presentations on real estate trends, methods, and business models, including GIW’s businessmodel which was to prepare homes for sale under a land contract to create a cash flowing property. Atthe end of the presentation, attendees were given the opportunity to purchase homes from Mohawkand Hyland, so they could implement the GIW process on their own. Each home that an attendeewanted to purchase (each purchasing attendee being a “Buyer”), Mohawk would purchase from GIWand other wholesalers and then engage Pro to manage the properties if the purchaser chose not tomanage the property themselves and not to use the services of a different property managementcompany.

Deeds and property status


In anticipation of the events scheduled by Hyland/Mohawk in 2008, GIW started purchasingmany homes to prepare for the demand that would be generated by these events. These homesGIW purchased were all done so, sight unseen and by way of a quit claim deed. Each propertythat Mohawk purchased from GIW and then resold to a Buyer was to be deeded intoMohawk’s name and then to the Buyer, however, this was not done initially. Mohawk wouldnot allow GIW to deed the properties into Mohawk’s name for fear of the tax, insurance, andcode/city liabilities it might incur. Since the real estate purchase contract signed by a Buyerwas between Mohawk and the Buyer, and Mohawk received the purchase money from theBuyer. GIW did not have the ability to deed the properties directly into the Buyer’s name, butwas reliant on Mohawk to accept the properties into its name and then convey title to theproperties to the Buyers. It wasn’t until after a meeting in California between GIW andMohawk’s attorney that Mohawk agreed to cooperate with having deeds transferred into itsname. Accordingly, after that meeting GIW began deeding properties into Mohawk’s namewhich were in turn transferred into the Buyer’s name. Despite Mohawk’s agreement to acceptthe deed into its name, to date, it still takes Mohawk and its true owner, Gerry Abrams, anunnecessarily long time to move the deeding process along – sometimes taking a month ormore to complete this simple deed transfer process.

As discussed above, when Buyer purchases a property from Mohawk a specific property isidentified and assigned to a particular Buyer, however the deed to the specific property is notimmediately assigned in the Buyer’s name. There are two reasons for this.1. First, occasionally costly improvements and certain encumbrances prevent a property from

being sold under a land contract. Since the ultimate goal of most Buyer’s is to receive anoccupied property that can produce monthly cash flow, if it becomes apparent that theassigned property cannot be immediately sold, instead having to go through thecumbersome and tedious process of re-deeding the property to Mohawk, the property canmerely be exchanged for another property that is more likely to be saleable (this process isknown as an “Exchange”).

2. Second, given the uncertainty of whether a property will be Exchanged (for any of thereasons mentioned above), GIW did not think it would be fair to Buyers to deed a propertyand pass all of the related liabilities (code violations, taxes, theft, vandalism) of theproperty to the Buyer without the assurance that the property had an occupant placed in thehome creating cash flow.

As a result, the management team of GIW decided to retain the property and maintain theliability, taxes, code violations, etc. related to the property until it has been made cash flowingby Pro. Once the property has an Occupant located in the property, the deed work is started, thetaxes are paid and the property is deeded to Mohawk and then to the Client/Buyer.

If at anytime the Buyer/Client wants the property deeded directly to them GIW will withouthesitation deed the property to the Buyer/Client. GIW is in no way holding these properties asan asset; these properties represent an enormous liability and GIW only retains them in aneffort to help the Buyer/Client get an asset rather then a liability.

This decision has also allowed GIW to liquidate properties that are found to be un-sellable byPro without the extra deeding process and lag time between sell and deeding. Once theproperty has been liquidated GIW then has been able to buy replacement properties that domeet the criteria needed to deed the property to the Client/Buyer by way of Mohawk.


GIW and Pro are fighting two fronts:

1. Market each home and try to sell it to a local occupant by way of land contract.

2. Liquidate properties that are determined to be un-sellable by way of land contract andpurchase replacement properties post inspection that are quality sell-able homes.

Property Management

During the fall of 2008 Pro was struggling to keep up with the demand placed on them fromMohawk. Due to Pro managing other GIW properties, GIW clients where also being affected;therefore GIW started to help Pro and the Oborn’s by lending manpower, technology, andfunds. After having Todd Eaton the VP of operations for GIW spend nearly the entire month ofNovember in the offices of Pro, GIW determined they needed a list of improvements. Themanagement team at GIW presented these findings to the management of Pro andunfortunately they were meet with resistance at every turn. The battle continued until January29th 2009 when Brad Hess and Tyrell Gray successfully took over the complete ownership ofPro.

When the take over was completed Pro had 5 full time employees, 4 part time employees andone independent contractor that did their books. All of these employees quit when the decisionwas made to move the Pro office into the GIW building. As of August 3, 2009 Pro has 27 fulltime employees and 4 part time employees, not to mention the 11 GIW employees that crossover on many activities. We feel we have come a long way, we understand we still have a longway to go, and we thank all of our Clients that are helping us get through this difficult time.

Status and updates

When Pro was moved into the GIW building in February 2009 of the 1,267 properties beingmanaged by Pro there were 112 that had an occupant in the property. This meant at that time9% of the properties had been completed. To date August 7, 2009 there are 557 properties withland contracts which represents 44% of the total properties and a 35% increase in six months.This 44% has come down slightly in the last month or so due to the clean up work that hasbeen completed by the quality control in the land contract sales department.

Pro currently has T.V., radio, hundreds of internet ads posted per week, newspaper, andthousands of print ads all over the markets were the homes are located.

Between customer service calls and sales calls Pro fields between 600 to 750 inbound calls perday; outbound calls are also within the same range. Pro understands there is a long way to goto complete the task ahead of them; however they are dedicated to completing this and are herefor the long haul.

Summary of Mohawk Events:

Harv T Eker events:


Mohawk sold 53 properties where Escrow Specialists received and distributed funds. Mohawksold 70 properties where the funds where forwarded directly to Mohawk. Mohawk hascollected funds on 12 Clients where GIW has never been given any information; therefore aproperty has never been assigned to the Client.

Mohawk has reported to GIW they sold a total of 135 properties during the Harv T Ekerevents. Mohawk has shorted GIW $243,050 thousand dollars for Harv T Eker Client sales.GIW is currently pursuing legal action to recover these funds. Other promoters such asFreedom Investment Club (FIC) where also shorted their compensation for the Harv T eventsand are also pursuing legal action for these funds.

Sunil events:

Mohawk Sold 149 properties and for the most part all payments where collected by EscrowSpecialists, and for the most part funds where allocated correctly.

FIC events:

Mohawk sold 995 properties during FIC events and for the most part all funds where collectedby Escrow Specialists. For the first 714 or so properties GIW received its compensation for thepurchase of the properties directly from Escrow Specialists. The difference between theacquisition price forwarded to GIW and the retail purchase price was forwarded directly toMohawk from Escrow Specialists. From these funds that where forwarded to Mohawk FIC wasto be paid $3,500 and from this $3,500 there was to be $1,000 set aside for a contingency fundto protect the FIC clients and allow Mohawk by way of GIW to purchase additional propertiesin case the number of bad properties ended up being higher than anticipated.

The remaining 200 plus properties where paid out from Escrow Specialists a little differently.$2,500 was forwarded directly to FIC, $1,250 was forwarded to Mohawk and the balance wasforwarded to GIW for property acquisitions and contingency property purchases.

Mohawk has shorted FIC, and in return the contingency fund, roughly an additional $1,000,000million dollars. FIC and GIW independently are seeking legal action to recover these fundsfrom Mohawk.

Contingency fund summary:

The Management of GIW insisted on keeping profits set aside, or the creation of a contingencyfund, where funds could be earmarked to purchase additional properties in case the number ofbad properties ended up being higher then anticipated. From each property purchased therewas to be $1,000 set aside to purchase additional properties to draw from in the event thenumber of bad properties where too high.

GIW was partially paid on 123 Harv T property sales. Therefore there should have been$123,000 set aside for the contingency fund. For the Sunil events there should have been$149,000 set aside for the contingency fund. For the second tour of FIC events there shouldhave been roughly $248,000 set aside for the contingency fund. These totals add up to a total of$520,000 that should have been set aside for additional property purchases.


GIW however purchased an additional 650 properties 341 of which to date they still have notreceived the deeds on, and therefore can not market the home for sell by way of land contractuntil the deed comes in. These property purchases represent over $4,000,000 GIW invested inproperties to make sure there was enough properties to fulfill Mohawk clients. This representsa far greater number of property purchases than what was asked of them for the contingency.

Two things have happened:

1. A much higher number of bad properties where purchased, please remember theproperties where purchased sight unseen and the odds where being played. This hashindered the efforts of Pro in acquiring land contracts.

2. When purchasing these properties in bulk the buyer must wait for the seller to providethe deed. Many deeds did not come in for months longer than ever anticipated. All thewhile these properties sat and deteriorated due to neglect and vandalism.

The contingency funds for the second tour of FIC have not been distributed to GIW. Thecontingency funds for for these events are currently being held by FIC and Mohawk. FICholds $360,000 that has been earmarked for contingency funds and Mohawk holds anotherestimated $350,000+ that should be used for the contingency properties.

To date Mohawk and the other promoter’s have contributed nothing towards the contingencyfund for replacement properties. GIW has been unable to purchase as many homes as theywould have liked to replace properties for Mohawk Clients. Therefore GIW is left to liquidatethe bad properties to create capital in order to purchase replacement properties.

When GIW purchases replacement properties it does so “post” inspection and only in marketsthat have shown a high level of land contract sales in the past.

GIW and Pro continue to work each and every day to provide a quality product to their Clients.We ask each of our Clients to come and visit our facility, see that there are people on the otherside of the phones and emails working diligently each day on your behalf. We haveimplemented many great working systems and marketing efforts to secure quality landcontracts. We welcome your constructive input and look forward to a long and synergisticrelationship.

Sincerely,

Brad Hess

From: Peak Potentials Training [mai lto: [email protected] ]Sent: Tuesday, September 02, 2008 7:30 PMTo: [email protected]: Update Regarding Mohawk Diversified

YUKPOTE a IA ST AWING

Important Message From Customer Care:

UPDATE RE MOHAWK DIVERSIFIED

As you know, the real estate market in the United States is facing many challenges but also offers manyopportunities.

At the recent Never Work Again, Mohawk Diversified shared their strategy for profiting from the foreclosure crisisand we wanted to provide you with some important updates about this offer and some real estate investingguidelines to consider.

For the foreseeable future, real estate opportunities in the United States, especially relating to foreclosures, willbe very fluid and volatile. In addition to the traditional mantra of “location, location, location,” you should keeprepeating “information, information, information.”

• So, as you evaluate purchasing foreclosure properties from Mohawk, please keep in mind someadditional information that we have learned: Not all the properties seem to have come directly from“banks.” Some of these properties were available from other sources, such as the MLS, before Mohawkacquired them. Some seem to have been available at a lower “gross” price, however, according toMohawk, the difference is due to getting “clean and clear” title and a home that is in “livable” condition.Mohawk also states that its “program” offers a “guarantee” that should your home not be sellable, theywill replace it with one that is. As always, you need to determine whether the purchase price fromMohawk makes sense today given the prior pricing of these properties. Mohawk can advise you of anyliens, debts or other expenses that were due on the property that increased its cost of acquisition.

• Some of these houses will be easily matched with tenant/buyers, others may not and there is no absolutetime table to guarantee when you can expect cash flow from a property.

• The market for “notes” from tenant/buyers is relativey untested and the future cannot be predicted withany certainty. Mohawk appears to be confident the notes can be sold.

• Whether a buyer/tenant will be able or willing to maintain the property to your standards is not guaranteedand it is possible you may incur expenses for maintenance and repairs. You own this home.

• As you might expect, it is impossible to guess how and exactly when the local markets where theseproperties are located will rebound and values will increase.

• You might want to ask Mohawk for information about other investors who have used this program. Speakto these referrals to learn about their experiences.

• Become an expert on “values” in the market place so that you have a real understanding about how the


purchase price stacks up against market value and how much “equity” you are gaining. This is importantgiven that Mohawk uses a popular web based appraisal system that may or may not be perfectlyaccurate in today’s ever-changing marketplace.

• Finally, always talk to your advisers – lawyer, accountant, financial planner. Ask for their advice and becertain that this type of investment fits in your personal financial plan and portfolio.

• If you need further information, go directly to the source and speak to the people at Mohawk. Be sure thatall of your questions are answered.

At Peak Potentials, we always strive to bring you quality information at our events; be it with our own teachings orby inviting guest speakers and trainers. Students tell us that over the past 18 years we’ve been doing atremendous job in bringing the best of the best (close to 200 different trainers) to our stage. We hope you agree.

It is important, however, to be clear that Peak Potentials has no affiliation with any of our guest speakers’ privatebusinesses and how they handle their own programs or the administration of those programs. If a studentchooses to participate in a guest trainer’s additional offerings they should do so in the same way as werecommend they purchase anything else, by doing their own research and due diligence.

Also, please note that Peak Potentials and T. Harv Eker do not formally endorse any guest speaker or othercompany at our events. We simply provide a “forum” for learning.

We urge you to always do your own research, ask questions, be proactive in your due diligence and then makeappropriate adult decisions about participating in a program like Mohawk or any other. Should we receive anyfurther updates on this investment we will forward them to you.

To reach Mohawk Diversified email [email protected] or call (434) 534-9213.

As always, it is our honor to serve you and we wish the best of success in all your endeavors.

COO, Peak Potentials Training
