"I agree with that 100%. Adrian Mckenzie couldn't get anything off the ground because Mel and Darren never truly signed over the full rights. All he could do was pump the stock for the original investors, primarily Darren Marks and Mel Leiner to collect money."
If that is true, they only got a total of maybe $800,000 (not counting expenses). It does not seem like a very profitable scam given the potential they could have had if they went a different way.
