Also, Mr Jolly  and I hope for your sake you have not done the following, because it equates to a PONZI scheme.If some of your clients have sold their land originally bought from your company  and made a profit , i hope they have not sold directly back to your company and your company gave them their initial investment capital back together with a profit .Mr Jolly , look up the meaning of strategy and then think to yourself what is superior strategy and supreme strategy. When I engage in correspondence such as this , my modus operandi always entails supreme strategy.One final thing , think to yourself is my ego reeking havoc with my clarity of thought. Litigation , and I have a large wallet, alot larger than yours Mr Jolly , will result in the truth being revealed. Remember your company has sold an investment product here and not  a timeshare product , there is a vast difference between the two. Furthermore, on the 18 th of April 2013 two men were sentenced to 4.5 yrs and 8 yrs respectively in the UK , Kingston Crown Court  to be precise for selling worthless carbón credits. Those will ring a bell with you as one of your companies , part of the Green planet investment umbrela , did the same .Now i have to beg the question how many of your land investor clients also bought carbón credits , through  well we both know the name of your company . Finally Mr Jolly never attack before you know the nature of  your enemy ..... read Sun Tzu ...... it will help you when it comes to strategy ..... Have a nice day and cut the obnoxious crap .........

City of London Police secure first carbon credit fraud prison sentences
City of London Police this week secured its first criminal convictions and prison sentences for a carbon credit fraud following a three-year trans-Atlantic investigation
 
Ian Macdonald and David Downes were jailed at Kingston Crown Court yesterday for being the masterminds of an international boiler room fraud that funnelled $9 million from UK investors into Canadian and US bank accounts.
 
The pair’s criminal operation targeted thousands of people, many of them elderly and vulnerable, with offers of carbon credits and shares that were marketed as highly profitable investments but in reality they were almost or completely worthless.
 
Some of the money was lost to fund lavish lifestyles in Marbella, but much of it has since been recovered from frozen bank accounts and will be returned to victims by the City of London Police.
 
Macdonald, 50, was sentenced to eight years after being found guilty to money laundering while Downes, 46, received a four and a half year jail term having pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud.
 
Personal details had been obtained through the share list of legitimate companies and used by recruits of Macdonald, 50, and Downes, 46, to systematically cold call and pressurise people, many of whom were elderly, into buying carbon credits and shares.
 
Some victims were contacted again months later and told companies they had invested in were the subjects of hostile takeovers and that they needed to buy more shares to protect their original investment. Individual losses ran as high as $600,000.
 
Between January 2007 and December 2010 hundreds of victims paid millions of dollars into accounts held by Macdonald, most notably under the names of Hampton Capital Management Incorporated and North Pacific Escrow.
 
However, these financial transactions had not gone unnoticed, with City of London Police having been alerted to them by Essex Police and its own National Fraud Intelligence Bureau.
 
In November 2010 Macdonald and Downes requested their bank wire a million dollars to a Swiss company, but the British Columbia Securities Commission blocked the transaction and froze the account due to suspicions over the origins of the funds.
 
A month later City of London Police received information that MacDonald and Downes were flying into Heathrow from Vancouver en route to Spain. The pair were met at the airport and arrested on suspicion of fraud by false representation and money laundering.
 
As the investigation continued detectives uncovered lists of people that appeared to have been targeted by the Macdonald and Downes’ fraud. By the time the case came to trial more than 1,800 potential victims had been contacted by the investigation team.
 
Detective Constable Claire Armson-Smith, from the City of London Police, said:

“Securing the first convictions and jail sentences for a carbon credit fraud is a landmark moment for the City of London Police, with two men who ruthlessly targeting the vulnerable being brought to justice and their criminal operation dismantled.
 
“Much of the money they stole and moved across the Atlantic has been recovered and will be returned to victims, helping them to move on from a very bad experience and sending a message to other fraudsters that they when we come for them we will come for their money as well. “

City of London Police has been investigating a growing number of suspected carbon credit frauds, where environment investments are being marketed as a safe way to make easy money.
 
People believe they are buying products that can be traded to companies in a legitimate market when the reality is these credits either do not exist or can only be bought and sold on a voluntary market at a fraction of their supposed value..... NOW MR JOLLY TELL ME YOUR COMPANY,S CARBON CREDITS WERE DIFFERENT ......

Hi Andrew, since when have you became a lawman? From my understanding you were once part of the team that started the sales recruitment at Green Planet. I personally have had a few questions regarding the development you now selling in Brazil and the associated planning rights etc.

I wish you all the best of luck in the future.

Jamster my name is not Andrew , and I have never been involved with recruitment for Green planet , that I can sincerely assure of. However and notwithstanding thank you for your kind gesture of luck.

am sending you information about investing in carbon credits, which I received from Anglo-Capital Partners Limited after a cold call from its senior broker Mark Bishop.

I do not know whether there is any connection to Carbon Green Capital, which you wrote about recently, but perhaps you could look into this. H.H


Yes there is a link to Carbon Green Capital, whose sales pitch I exposed when it falsely told investors the Chancellor had said the value of carbon credits was about to go through the roof.

I shall come to the link in a moment, but first a little about Anglo-Capital Partners.


Dupe: Anglo-Capital is listed as a live, active carbon credit trader by a company called Carbon Neutral Investments Limited which is in turn authorised by the FSA (pictured)

It makes the same claim about George Osborne pretty much guaranteeing that anyone who invests will make a profit within a matter of months.

It also says that investors can turn their credits back into cash through a dealing company listed on the London Stock Exchange’s AIM market and accessible since last June.

I could find no such dealing company, so I popped along to Anglo-Capital’s registered office at Loughton, Essex.

It turned out to be a very smart five-bedroom house, complete with swimming pool. It also turned out to be very empty and up for sale, a snip at £825,000. There was no sign of Anglo-Capital, or its boss, John Oakes.

This was a pity, because I also wanted to ask him who owns the company, which should have filed ownership details with Companies House last November, but failed to do so. This is an offence.

I particularly wanted to ask Oakes about his colleague Brett Jolly, who was also a director of Anglo-Capital until December and may be part-owner for all I know.

Jolly has a fascinating and controversial past in the timeshare industry in South Africa.

And in 2007 he made international headlines when he claimed to be the owner of the newly discovered biggest diamond in the world – more than twice the size of the then record holder, the famous Cullinan Diamond, part of the Crown Jewels. Jolly later admitted the diamond was a fake and said he had been tricked.

I tried faxing questions to Anglo-Capital, but its fax number would not work. Phone calls went straight to an answering machine that played music while nobody answered. And although its website still exists, last week emails bounced back as undeliverable.

Questions: The alleged registered office of Anglo-Capital Partners

Managing Director: Paul Seakens, right, says Anglo-Capital treats its customers 'fairly'
Managing Director: Paul Seakens, right, says Anglo-Capital treats its customers 'fairly'


Despite all this, Anglo-Capital is still listed as a live, active carbon credit trader by a company called Carbon Neutral Investments Limited (CNI), which says it provides clearing and settlement services to its membership of carbon traders, which appears to mean that it offers backroom services such as collecting investors’ cash and registering credits – though Anglo-Capital has gone a lot further, saying investors actually buy their credits from CNI.

And now for the link I promised: CNI also lists Carbon Green Capital as a member of its clearing system, adding it is ‘suspended’.

I asked Paul Seakens, who runs CNI, what he thought of Anglo-Capital’s claims. He denied that CNI sells credits. He agreed that there was no AIM-listed trading company. And he accepted that Anglo-Capital was misusing the Chancellor in its sales pitch.

Nonetheless, Seakens added that ‘Anglo takes its responsibilities seriously in respect of treating customers clearly and fairly’.

I think we will just have to agree to disagree on that.

Although carbon credits are not regulated by the Financial Services Authority, CNI is authorised in other fields. The FSA says: ‘Several unauthorised firms promoting and selling carbon credits are telling investors that Carbon Neutral Investments Limited, a firm authorised by us, will handle the money in their investment.

‘We believe this is done to suggest investors will be protected as though they are dealing with an authorised firm. But this is not correct.’

If things go wrong, investors will not have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service, or any compensation scheme.

For the FSA to issue a public warning of any sort that names a firm the regulator itself has authorised is extraordinary. It simply emphasises how powerless the FSA is to oversee carbon credits.

The regulator cannot change the law. That is up to the politicians at the Treasury. How soon can we expect some action on what is a growing danger to investors?

Does the Treasury even understand the issue, or if it does, is it simply hoping that victims will shut up and go away

Anglo Capital Partners sold carbón credits ( Volunatry Market carbón credits ? ) to clients of Green Planet Investments as a viable and possibily highly profitable , over a 2 year period or more, alternative investment product. Mr Jolly what due dilgence and indeed analytical research did your company conduct as to the potential invetment value attached to the carbón credits sold to you clients ? What Price did your company pay for them ? and what price did your company sell them for to your investor clients ? Waht vintage were those carbón credits ? and finally what are they worth now ? Also , have any of your clients sold those credits at a profit ? if not why not ? Also , have any of those investor clients got a fair and reasonable chance of selling thos ecarbon credits at a profit ? If so Why ? ......Mr Jolly it is not a libel lawyer you will be needing , i strongly suspect , but rather and posibily a defence lawyer ..... YOU HAVE POSSIBILY ANDF QUITE  CLEARLY AND KNOWINGLY , I STRONGLY SUSPECT ,RIPPED OFF LOTS AND LOTS OF POOR PRIVATE RETAIL INVERSTORS IN THE UK ---- Please show all of this to your libel lawyers ......... off you go now and get the ball moving ........ I can,t wait to face you in court with a raft of your clients ...... and you know  something i will be applying for a cost order once any proceedings are commenced or finalised .........   C, mon Brett bring it on

MR JOLLY - THE CARBON CREDITS SOLD BY YOUR COMPANY DO THEY FALL INTO THE CATEGORY  IN THE ARTICLE BELOW? IT IS AN OBVIOUS QUESTION TO ASK -------

The carbon credit floor introduced by the UK government in April 2013 of £16 does not apply to Voluntary Carbon Credits. Today I was called by a man who had invested £140,000 into Voluntary Carbon Credits. He wanted to know how to sell these now. There is no way to sell these. They are not investments. He has lost £140,000!

How do you tell a man that the £140,000 he thought he had is now only worth the value of the tax loss he has created, which depending on his tax rate could be worth 18p in the pound, or 28p. I am sure he will keep ringing up people trying to find someone who might buy them. I advised him to ring up the SFO (serious fraud office). You can call Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040, or email them on confidential@sfo.gsi.gov.uk.

My previous carbon credit caller had bought carbon credits from Independent Carbon Limited through a man called Steve. But it could be Mike, or John, or Adam. I don't know if these salesmen are naive, have been brainwashed by the company owners, or worse actually know what they are doing. Where does the con start? Anyway I think criminal proceedings have  been started against Independent Carbon and maybe Steve from the information my now new client has, who has incidentally lost nearly all his wealth.

Today's caller had bought credits off the following two companies - Pine Commodities Limited and Caledonian limited. The formula is the same. The company will not yet have any company accounts, because it is just a year old. If you go on the website there is a central London address, but no telephone number, just a place where you can leave your details so that they can contact you. The salesman on the end of the phone imploring you to buy more carbon credits to diversify and perhaps achieve scale which will make your credits more marketable is probably making a huge commission. Normally the price you will be asked for is say £7 to £10 per carbon credit. Companies who do genuinely buy voluntary carbon credits do so to offset their carbon emissions - they do not do it as an investment and they certainly are not buying second hand carbon credits. They are also probably buying them in the range of 50p to £4, so the commission to the companies selling these to you is huge perhaps anything between £3 to £9.50 per voluntary carbon credit. I don't know but I suspect at least 80% of the voluntary carbon credit price you might be being asked to pay is commission to the company selling them.

If you don't believe me try selling the carbon credits you have already bought back to the salesman on the phone. Not a chance, because there is no secondary market in voluntary carbon credits. So if you have bought them already accept that you have lost all the money and register the tax loss. Voluntary carbon credits are not investments. After you have done this register a complaint with the SFO and they might ask you for an interview. Do your civic duty, swallow your pride and stop these people and companies ringing up other unsuspecting people on the phone. Oh and then beware, your number is probably now in circulation for other scams. My client was then rung up by a supposed broker promising him listed shares at cut prices. This too was a fraud and he lost that money too. Beware... don't trust people who ring you up on the phone to sell you 'investments?', even after you go to their supposed London offices to talk to them. If you do you will just be another person sucked in by a scam.

Hi! I'm very curious about Mr. Jolly's 'biggest diamond of the world'. As most of the articles on it, I don't believe that it's a diamond at all, but Mr Jolly's background leads me to the aprehension, it could be part of a scheme to feed money to his twopointfive group. However, since last saturday, there is no news on it. Has somebody heard something new? Particularly with regard to twopointfive-activities? -  crypto-ffm

Sept 2 2007
Fresh from operating the biggest fraud in SA timeshare history, Brett Jolly now claims to have found the worlds largest diamond.  Over twice the size of the Cullinan diamond  found in 1906.
Either Jolly is of a self delusory nature or this is yet another of his “over the top” scams which will keep everyone entranced for at least 30 seconds. - Durban

Hey fatboy JOLLY , what about this ...... Anglo Capital Partners’ website describes carbon credits as “The ethical alternative investment” and “a phenomenal alternative investment opportunity”. This description is dramatically different to the advice on the UK’s National Fraud Intelligence Bureau: “If you buy carbon credits you WILL NOT make any money no matter what the salesman says.”

Anglo-Capital Partners offers the usual boiler room type deal on carbon credits: carbon credits at inflated prices which the company claims will be worth a lot more at some point in the future. Anglo-Capital Partners also offers a variant: an exit strategy, that is a means of selling the carbon credits. The company’s website explains the exit strategy as follows, under the headline “Complete Control of when you exit”:


When making any investment it is important for you to understand your exit methods and the transparency of this investment. We advise all clients to hold on to the Carbon Credits for a minimum of two years as this is likely to reward you with a significant return on your investment.

The same page of the website includes the FSA’s warning about carbon credits as investments.

While this may seem reassuring, the reality seems somewhat less so.

In November 2012, someone calling themselves “John” posted the following on the website Just Answer, which provides advice for people who think they may be victims of fraud:


I also have been contacted by Anglo Capital Partners who say they have an exit strategy to sell 7000 carbon credits which I purchased through another company namely MH-Carbon. They say they can get £13 a credit on 22 march next year (I paid an average of £3.50 around 3 months ago) However I would need to buy credits from them worth £4500 in order to become a client before they can sell my existing credits.

MH-Carbon say they can sell the credits I purchased from them for £7 (in March next year) per credit providing I buy an extra £12000 from them.

The date for exiting is prior to the new tax year when the credits will be valued at £16 as per government legislation.

So Anglo-Capital Partners’ exit strategy is four months in the future and involves handing over a further £4,500. Meanwhile MH Carbon is offering to sell the same carbon credits at almost half the price, if the investor spends another £12,000 on carbon credits.

The FSA warning about carbon credits (reproduced on Anglo-Capital Partners’ website) has the following advice: “If you are concerned about a carbon credit trading scheme you should stop sending money to the firm and individuals involved.”

Anglo-Carbon Partners was established on 10 October 2011 by John Oakes. For most of last year Brett Jolly was also a director. He left the company in December 2012. Jolly is director of more than 270 companies. He hit the headlines in 2007, when he announced the discovery of the world’s biggest diamond – a story that only got better when it turned out to be a hoax. Jolly has not given up his career as a carbon credit salesman though. He is a director of Green Planet International Investment Holdings and the company’s website offers carbon credits “coming soon”, along with land and property investments in Brazil.

Anglo-Carbon Partners’ website gives an office address in London. More than 100 other companies and a strip club share this address. As the website gives no floor, suite or room number, it seems unlikely that anything posted to this address would actually arrive at Anglo-Carbon Partners’ office.

But the company’s website has some great testimonials. From politicians (Barack Obama, George Osborne, Tim Yeo) and newspapers (the New York Times and the Sunday Times). None of them, of course, have anything to say about Anglo-Carbon Partners, but they have all “remarked on the growth of Carbon Credits”. So that’s OK, then

Any villas built yet Brett? how is the White Sands Development coming along?

Hi

I am due to complete a finance deal for the purchase of a plot in White sands country club in Brazil in August this year through Green planet investments.This is the first blog type discussion forum where I have seen them been exposed.
I am concerned that this may be a scam I don't  know whether to complete the transaction and take title to the land or just back out of it completely and write off the whole thing as a mistake. I have paid about 9k already and due another 1k.I hired a Brazilian  lawyer to help me complete the he deal recently and I am in the process of getting a cpf number in Brazil.
Can you give me some guidance please I really confused.
Thanks

Firstly are you buying the plot as an investment ?
Secondly , how long do you wish your investment monies to be tied into the investment ?
Has Green Planet Investments managed to secure out and out planning permission , if so for what ?
How do you plan to sell your investment at a profit ?
Has Green Planet advised you how to do this ?
Has Green Planet quoted you a percentage return profit on your investment?
Do you know the true market value of your plot of land and not what Green Planet have sold it to you for ?
Where did you send your investment monies to for the plot of land ? Uk ? Gibraltar ? Brazil ?
These are all questions which need to be addressed, before advice can be formulated and provided.

If I was you I would get my range rover driving ass out of Marbella rápido.I,ll give you 6 months until there is a busca captura issued in your favour.Next it will be a spot on remand in Alhaurin then back to sunny old blightey to answer a few pertinent questions.After that you will be charged on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud.

did mark bishop have a St Helens accent by any chance? I have received a similar call

Hi. I purchased a plot at the White Sands project in Brazil from Green Planet Investment a few years ago and received a call a few days ago from a Lee Sharpe from Green Planet offering to buy back my holding witha 23% return on capital, but I have to open a corporate account first and put £3000 into said account. This was followed up with the following email copy of a letter:-

As discussed, we have agreed on a withdrawal from the White Sands Natal project more
importantly we are still on target to offer the percentages as agreed upon the purchase of the land.
In total you will receive 23% for the 3 years you have held the investment and as a good will gesture an extra 2% from our company for the problems we have faced regarding time scales.
For us to facilitate the transfer of the £9,000.00 along with the £2,250.00 we have in process an extra service for our clients to open a Corporate Trading Account which can deal a lot more effectively with this type of investment than a normal domestic, high street bank account can. What we have arranged is for you to open said CTA with one of our subsidiary’s Providence Cargo.

Once we have opened the trading account with a total sum of £3,000.00 we will proceed with the transfer of remaining £2,250.00, which will bring the balance to £14,250.00. You will have 60 days to close the account and transfer all funds across to you domestic account of your choice. Please advise where you want the funds remitted once balance you have completed the opening deposit to Providence Cargo, which we would need to be completed within the next 6 working days.

Kind regards,

Lee Sharpe
