I'm not as familiar with Schwartz
He was always an enigma to me. Obviously there. Obviously profiting from what Linda was doing.
I agree with yout though that Linda wasn't bright enough to do it on her own all these years. Remember, this was a remarkably successful pennystock scam. That they could take in over $100 million in investor cash while barely shoing $1 million in sales over that period is quite an accomplishment.
My guess for alternate puppetmaster would be Hicks from Southridge. Look how long they serviced Linda. It wasn't until they accidentlally signed the Charlton documents with the Southridge name that we even knew who Charlton was.
After Soutridge left, IMDS started acting real stupid like. European distributor base in Pembroke Pines Florida? The Mexico sale video. Linda agreeing to be deposed in a civil case?
#1). You have money. Other people want it. All of it!
#2). You want easy money. So does everybody else. They'll get it, too....yours! (and all of it!)
#3). You tell yourself you're smart. You won't lose your money. Fact: Other people are smarter,
