4. Re-introducing Tre McKenzie

Tre McKenzie was a manager at the London Fashion Exchange, the company that was the focus of my previous blog. The London Fashion Exchange was closed down at the end of last year, with its directors being raided by the police (thanks).

In a phone conversation with me last year, Tre McKenzie insisted that the London Fashion Exchange was just shit, rather than a scam (I paraphrase). The police, however,  begged to differ.

I gave Tre the benefit of the doubt, thinking he may have been an unwitting accomplice to Roland Tilman's kack-handed attempt at scamming kids out of their cash - alas - it seems Tre was in on the scam all along. So much so that evidently he though he'd have a go at reworking the London Fashion Exchange con into the JA Wealth con. Some people...

Let's have a closer look at Tre:


The above screen shot is taken from the official webpage of JA Wealth.

His blurb claims that Tre owns a business consultancy. The only company that Tre has registered in the UK is Clearpoint Solutions. For lazy people who don't want to check the link, below is part of a screenshot.


Tre was working on Clearpoint Solutions last year, but the development of the project seemed to be halted in its tracks when the London Fashion Exchange team got busted. The website still has place holder text throughout its pages, and it is obvious that the company never traded. (Although the site claims that the London Fashion Exchange was a 'client' ! Ha!)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE!

Tre has quickly updated the CPS website to remove the placeholder text. Sneaky! To view the page as it was on May 8th you can still view the cached pages (cached pages show how the site looked in the past). I have posted a screenshot below (click the image for a larger view):


"Arenean nonummy hendrerit mau phaselntes nascetur ridic ulusm dui fusce feu. Cras vitae neque turpis, in luctus risus. Donec et placerat orci. Praesent pulvinar lectus mas"

Sorry Clearpoint Solutions - I don't speak bastardized Latin.


Now let's compare the above homepage with a description of the company on Tre's LinkedIn page:


An extensive client list?? Founded in 2011?? And your website is full of placeholder text in 2014??

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So what does this leave on Tre's CV?

A stint as a middle manager at a failed scam company (click here to read some letters from unhappy customers), and a stillborn company that never traded with a website full of placeholder text.

Is this a man you want to pay 995 quid to for a Forex course?
