Protest Against Pigeon King Ponzi

Scott Hunsberger, of Business Opportunities Buster, has asked me to pass on and publicize this meeting.

A demonstration is planned for July 30, 2008 in Kitchener, ON. at the Creditors meeting for the bankruptf Pigeon King International; a demonstration like the following

Farmers from across Canada and the US have become victims of what is showing signs of a very large pyramid/ponzi scheme which has failed and left 100's of farmers with useless pigeons to feed and support.

Whole communities have been affected by this.

We are asking people whom feel they have been defrauded by some type of scheme, whether it is a ponzi/pyramid scheme, fraudulent franchise or business opportunity, or some other sort of money making scheme where the authorities, the government, and the police tell us, the victims, that this is a civil matter even though it is in different sections of the criminal code and seem to think they need do nothing about it.

It is time for us VICTIMS to take a stand for each other and organize as a group to make changes so that laws are enforced and not swept under the carpet, to protect ourselves and others from falling victim to these types of scams.

I am aware that many people are embarrassed by the fact they have been victimized and do not want to be known so I ask that if this is the case then please attend with a bag over your head or a disguise and bring a placard.

This is not meant to be funny but rather to show that victims would rather keep quite then come forward. Because this so called scheme has rec'd quite a lot of media attention lately this would be a great opportunity to bring this cause to the media's attention.

Here is a link to the trustees website for more information, time and place.

For more information on this story you can go to betterfarming.com or this forum on Pigeon King (long read) and see what is written about this scheme.

I ask that you pass this on to others whom you feel have been victimized by a scheme and they in turn pass it on to others.

My goal is to have a 1000 protesters show up at this meeting to bring attention to the media, which in turn would bring attention to the authorities about this and other situations of fraud that is affecting the ordinary person and to show support for the farmers whom have been victimized.

With help, we can bring awareness to the public about these types of schemes and frauds.
