Two counts of tax evasion
Two counts of money laundering
Six counts of fraud in the offer and sale of securities
Ten counts of wire fraud

Rick Koerber & Michelle Koerber Getting A Divorce

That is right Rick & Michelle Koerber are calling it quits. Rick Koerber's personal site announces their divorce. Apparently their divorce is waiting on a signature from the judge to be finalized. Tom Harvey with the Salt Lake Tribune breaks the story.

Rick Koerber Federal Court Status Hearing 10/23/09

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 04:51:00 +0000

Rick Koerber had a status hearing today in Federal Court. He quit mooching off the Federal Government as court appointed attorney Jerry Mooney has removed himself. Now Rick has hired his own attorney Marcus Mumford to represent him (there goes the rest of our money). The court is giving him an additional 90 days to get familiar with the case. I hope this doesn't get stalled out for years as we deserve restitution. Prosecutors said there will likely be more charges filed against Koerber in the future.

Mark Shurleff Cancels Speech At Neighborhood Meeting With Freecapitalist Project

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 04:53:00 +0000

The Attorney General Mark Shurleff was schedule to speak at a neighborhood meeting on July 23rd sponsored by the Freecapitalist Project. The AG backed out Friday after he found out the event was sponsored by the Freecapitalist project. The AG's campaign manger was under the impression that this was a neighborhood meeting with no affiliation to the Freecapitalist Project. To find out more information about this story visit the Salt Lake Tribune.

FreeCapitalist Project Rick Koerber

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 03:16:00 +0000

Does anyone know what costs are involved to be a member of the FreeCapitalist Project? I assume you get to go to a couple of the meetings at no cost. Does anyone know how much money the membership cost? Are there monthly dues? The FreeCapitalist Project website claims that there are members in all fifty states. Are there online courses and webcasts for out of town members? If you have any in site to the FreeCapitalist Project I would be very interested in your comments. You can email at whereisgabe@yahoo.com or reply to this post.

Does Rick Koerber's "Friends" Have His Back?

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 03:46:00 +0000

It looks like Rick's Friends aren't all standing behind him. City Weekly has a great article talking about Mark & Carl's now distant friendship. I have to commend City Weekly for their great job covering Rick Koerber's scheme from the beginning. Thanks for the tip on twitter FreeCapPonzi.

Rick On The Discussion Boards

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 00:38:00 +0000

I spent a little bit of time today reading the posts that Rick Koerber has written on the message boards (KSL, Deseret News). His posts are semi amusing and standout like a soar thumb. They usually start with I have never met Rick Koerber personally or have ever had dealings with him. Then they just ramble on with how he is innocent, these are circumstances of a down economy, it’s not a crime to loose money, Koerber is a victim and on and on. There is one thing that is for sure if Rick has been mentioned in a discussion board he will be there to defend himself (using a fictitious name of course). I guess its okay since Rick and his wife are the only two defending him. I do have to agree with him that it’s not a crime to loose investor’s money if it’s legitimate. I guess what I don’t understand is how do you loose the whole 100 million in real estate? I certainly could see loosing 30% but I can’t see how it’s even possible to loose it all. Can anyone explain to me how Rick is the victim? I don’t understand. Isn’t he supposed to be finding a job and not Googling himself?

More Assets Than Liabilities

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 15:01:00 +0000

I think it's funny that Rick Koerber claims that he had more assets than liabilities. He doesn't believe in appraisals. How did they come up with the values for their properties? I don't know but one would tend to believe they were fabricated. That's how they had more assets than liabilities.

Rick Koerber Only Owes 30 Million

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 14:45:00 +0000

Rick claimed back in January that he had paid back 70 million of the 100 million that he owed investors. I'm just curious if anybody is whole or just owed under 30% of their money? I have a hard time believing that he made those payments. If that is the case where do i pick up my check? I also found it interesting that he threatened to sue the Utah Division Of Securities for 30 Million. Does that mean if he won the suit he would make all of his investors whole? Fat chance, this is for sure a Ponzi.

Rick Koerber & Represntative Carl Wimmer Relationship

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:58:00 +0000

The Salt Lake Tribune has a great article explaining the relationship between Rick Koerber & Representative Carl Wimmer. Carl Wimmer said that he had asked Governor Huntsman to fire Francine Giani. Carl and Mark shouldn't try to fool the Governor.

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 00:21:00 +0000

Gabe's Ferrari

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Sat, 20 Jun 2009 13:08:00 +0000

On Take Two Rick said that he made $20,000.00 in two weeks selling his Ferrari. Does anyone know if he sold that Ferrari to Gabe? I think he did.

Rick Koerber's arraignment was today, he plead not guilty to the charges. To watch Fox 13's interview with Rick's attorney Jerry Mooney Click Here. I read an article that Tom Harvey with the Salt lake Tribune wrote stating that Mooney is court appointed.

I thought I would let everyone know that I have still never herd from Gabe. The last time I heard from Gabe he told me everything was fine. Of course a month later he disappeared and wouldn't return phone calls that was back in 2007.

Update 6/13/09

Gabe & Shandi Joseph just had a baby boy witch makes their fourth child. I heard they had the baby at home.

Tomorrow Rick Koerber is going to be on Take Two (KUTV) at 10:00 AM with Rod Decker. Apparently Rick will be taking and answering phone in questions. I'm sure all of his followers will be calling in telling him how great he is.

If you have any information that would pertain to this case contact the U.S. Attorney's Office.

I have heard that Gabriel and Shandi were living with in-laws at 5908 West 10100 North Highland UT. He may have moved to a new address can anyone confirm?

Update 5/31/09

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 03:10:00 +0000

On the right hand column under the heading Gabe On The Web you will see a couple of Gabe's businesses. Check out Global Wealth Revealed I wonder how this is working out for Gabe. The My Legacy Journal appears to be co-owned by Stephen Freestone. The Engraven Image is a stamped concrete business in Las Vegas that Brandon Adams is running for Gabe. I will keep you posted as I find more.

The one thing I really don't understand is how Rick claims that he had nothing to $200,000,000 back to nothing. I guess most of the problem stems from they don't know what an asset and liability are. If have $1,000 and I owe an investor $1,001 how much money do I have?

Update 5/29/09

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 03:08:00 +0000

Doesn't this sum up Rick Koerber he claims he has no money he rents the most expensive hotel's conference room to claim he is innocent and that he is going to counter sue. I'm sure everyone at the Department of Securities is running scared. Do you really need to keep on spending investor's money?

Update 5/26/09

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 03:04:00 +0000

I'm sure by now everyone has heard that Rick Koerber has been indicted on three counts. Rick is charged with mail fraud, wire fraud and tax evasion. The indictment says that Franklin Squires and Founders Capital never made a profit. The indictment also claims that of the 200 million Rick collected 50 million was paid in ponzi payments. I think it would be safe to say that Gabe Joseph will be indicted very shortly. Unless he decided to cut a deal with the feds to save his own neck and testify against Rick Koerber. If you haven't read about this yet there is a great article at the Salt Lake Tribune. KUTV channel 2 news does a good job covering the story as well. I find it funny that up until last week Mark Shurtleff was Facebook friends with most of the Franklin Squires group. It seems very interesting that right before Rick is indicted they are no longer Facebook friends. As far as I see it Mark should be indicted for safe harboring Rick from prosecution. Thanks Mark for letting them have two more years to spend my money. Look at Mark's mission statement as Attorney General of the State of Utah. Do you think he has upheld his office? I don't think that he will be able to help them out of this jam. This is just one more reason I will be voting for Bob Bennett for senate.

Update 11/02/08

noreply@blogger.com (Fraud Alert) — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 03:00:00 +0000

I'm trying to find out more of the details about Gabe's monster house that he is building. Does anyone know the details on his house? UPDATE He has lost this house to the bank.

Has anyone heard if Rick is still honoring his commitment to pay back all of his investors this month? If we don't receive our money this month I will sue Annuit Coeptis and Gabe. I will post more details around Thanksgiving as others have expressed interest in combining efforts. I have also been approached by the media as they would like to expose Rick and the inner circle. If you have any new news or know of any new ventures that Rick and crew are involved in. Please let me know.

Has anyone heard from Gabe?

I'm sure that most of you have heard of the Rich Dad series. I just came across the latest product that Robert T. Kiyosaki released and is the best out of the series. I picked up my copy of Rich Dad's 3-step Guide to Wealth for only $65.00 off of Ebay. This is much cheaper than going to a seminar that Rick puts on.

I would like to respond to one of Rick's post the one entitled did you invest with Rick Koerber? I may not have given my money directly to Rick but it certainly trickled down to him. Let's say Rick borrows Gabes Ferrari. He ends up hitting someone out on his ride and decides to Flee the sceen of the accident. Let's now say the police track him down and he claims that he didn't hit the person because it's not his vehicle. Gabe's vehicle hit the person not me as I'm innocent. Same principle I invested my money with Gabe he in turn gives my money to Rick.
