Subject: RE: kevin's case - what actually happen ?
Hi ,
Frankly, it pains me to write this email… but I guess the more people know the truth the better so that you all will not fall into the same trap as some of us had.
Plse do not believe what you have read in Kelvin’s blog, it is a distortion of the truth to mislead the public. Kelvin convinced a number of his students to put money with him (huge sums, myself included) to manage with promise of high returns over a short period (anything from 2 wks to 3 mths). He was so convincingly sincere and seemed like such an expert that many of us had trusted him completely. Being new in trading then, I thought I had found holy grail. It was a very painful and costly mistake…
Within a short time of putting the money with him, he initially claimed temporally cash-flow problems but eventually claimed he was conned of all the money. He continued to make “sincere” promises that the money will be returned soon and at the same time told us to “trust” him and to keep quiet so as not to jeopardize his reputation/earning ability. Unwittingly, we all kept quiet and pray hard that our hard earned money would be returned to us (he handled his victim individually, so that we do not know then who else were in the same boat). Our months of suffering in anguish/lonely silence did not pay off. We later found that despite having snag in paying back the earlier batch of students, Kelvin went on to cheat new students over the next few months.
The total amount owed is more than $4m in just a few months. All gone, apparently. And it’s been more than a year and he did not make any repayment to us despite claiming in his blog he has been given many classes and making lots of money trading. We do not know what happened to our money and prob never will. People who do not know what happened continued to believe in him, with the same blind trust we had for him in the beginning.. if you had read his blog, you would know what I mean. Maybe he is making money, but certainly not through trading. The best con-man is someone you would never believe will do such a thing. And the 2nd thing I learnt is “if it seems to good to be true, it probably is”.
Some of us eventually reported him to the CAD (too late, not before more people fell victims), unfortunately CAD could not find enough evidence to charge him for cheating (don’t ask me why… I can’t understand this… with so many victims… maybe Kelvin managed to convince them we are all willing parties?) but charged him for unlicensed fund mgmt instead.
So is it just a simple case of not knowing the legal rules for money management? I guess you know better now that Kelvin was never the victim that he made himself out to be.
