BULLETIN: Zeek Receiver Names More International Clawback Defendants

BULLETIN: (Updated 8:41 p.m. EDT U.S.A.) Zeek Rewards’ receiver Kenneth D. Bell has filed an amended clawback lawsuit that names 10 more defendants with addresses in the British Virgin Islands.

Bell earlier sued five individuals with BVI addresses.

One of the new defendants is alleged to have received more than $2.036 million from the Zeek Ponzi- and pyramid scheme. The development means that at least two BVI addressees now are alleged to have received more than $2 million each from the fraud.

The 10 new alleged “winners” and sums:

• Vernon Lettsome of Road Town, Tortola, $2,036,742.37 directly and through his shell company, VI Computer & Business Services, under one or more usernames, including “vicabs” and “vicabs1.”
• Trevor Potter, no specific town listed, $293,221.85, under one or more usernames, including “tpo01.”
• Simon Potter, no specific town listed, $230,570.611. under one or more usernames, including “potter.”
• Esther Potter, no specific town listed, $187,990.96, under one or more usernames, including “LurenaPotter7.”
• Elcina Frett, no specific town listed, $148,000.22, under one or more usernames, including “frette.”
• Hercules Fraser, no specific town listed, $67, 201.35, under one or more usernames, including “reindeer01.”
• Kishma Reefe, no specific town listed, $55,149.26, under one or more usernames, including “wq.”
• Ruth Matthew, Road Town,Tortola, $136,277.95, under one or more usernames, including “ram01.”
• Wesley Legair, Road Town, Tortola, $117,079.49, under one or more usernames, including “gkozy1.”
• Sophia Richards, Road Town, Tortola, $96,238.79, under one or more usernames, including “sophiarich2.”

In February, Bell named these five BVI addressees as clawback defendants:

• Agnita Solomon, Road Town, Tortola, $2,057,355.61, under one or more usernames, including “ASolomon.”
• Marguerite D. Hodge, $115,776.29, under one or more usernames, including “mdh01.” (In the amended complaint, Hodge’s addresses is listed as East End, Tortola. No specific town was listed in the original complaint.)
• Susan Forbes, Tortola, $603,288.30, under one or more usernames, including “ladysue.”
• Marcus Drigo, Road Town,Tortola, $70,262.52, under one or more usernames, including “mjblues.”
• Patrice Harewood, Road Town, Tortola, $59,940.74, under one or more usernames, including “Susielee.”

Each of the defendants named in February’s original complaint remains a defendant in the amended complaint. The amended complaint was docketed today in U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina.

Bell has sued international winners with addresses in the BVI, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the United Kingdom, Norway, Brazil, Israel, France, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Ireland and the Netherlands.

Through a class-action complaint, he has sued more than 9,000 individuals with U.S. addresses.
