BRENDA MACMILLAN & The Institute for Financial Learning
85Brenda MacMillan
WARNING: BRENDA MACMILLAN - Scams & Fraud
I was an investor in a couple of companies I heard about through the Institute for Financial Learning. I was absolutely thrilled that people like Kirk Mosdell, David Saxe, Nigel Brisbane and Glenn Selig stepped up and undertook to try to get our money back by dealing directly with Gary Sorenson and Martin Werner. I was truly devastated when it was reported that Gary Sorenson was not willing to take responsibility for this scam and return our money.
I am on the verge of losing my house, my marriage is strained and I am desperately relying on getting some of my money back. When I heard about the revised recovery effort in motion, I regained some of my spirit because there was hope again. Then Kirk, Nigel and Glenn resigned from the Committee and I wondered why they would do that after spending so much time and effort so far.
The only conclusion I came to was that they had decided that they could not work with this Brenda MacMillan person, who came out of nowhere, to serve on the Committee. Based on everything that has been reported by the Committee over the last few months, is appears that their instincts must have been right.
I’m sure we’re all very disturbed by the battles going on with the Recovery Committee. David Saxe began the recovery journey for our benefit and has been working on it for well over two years. He seems to be doing everything he can to keep the recovery action going. But with all of the legal actions taking place and the fact that the recovery process has now been suspended until Brenda MacMillan turns over our records and any missing money to the Committee and basically butts out, we are once again back to square one.
Over time, we have received reports from David Saxe and we have received reports from Brenda MacMillan. Based on my research, David has provided us with a much more credible position than Brenda MacMillan.
Many of Brenda MacMillan’s emails to us have been full of contradictions, one minute she was sweet and the next she acted like a witch and she just sounds like a person who has lost her purpose and objective in helping us recover our money. Brenda MacMillan’s state of mind and mental health is in serious question as her communications are erratic and unpredictable.
Because of this, I decided to do my own research on what has happened. I first went to the Committee to try to find out what is really going on. They indicated that they were unable to discuss the matter with me, due to the confidential nature of their activities. I then tried several reliable sources who had parts of the story, but not enough to put everything together.
Therefore, I resorted to examining the court records to find out what is really going on. Based on these efforts, I have determined that there are some very obvious facts coming to light. First, Brenda MacMillan appears to be doing everything she can to avoid turning over all of the records, participation forms, bank statements and other banking documents to the committee that the committee needs in order to continue with the recovery process.
Second, Brenda MacMillan took a $60,000 payment while serving as a member of the committee after telling us that she was not being paid and would not be paid until the recovery effort was successful. She has made numerous contradictory claims such as; funds are being held by a “Third Party” BlackInk which is HER company!
Brenda MacMillan has been determined to finance a “council of governance” at a cost of $75,000.00 with the funds we the investors contributed with no real purpose. Why do we need another “council” to be set up and funded to ensure that any funds recovered are returned in an equitable fashion when we don’t yet have a recovery? This is just another example of her efforts to stall and/or interfere with the recovery efforts. Her trail of motions and affidavits clearly demonstrates that she is determined to prevent us from continuing.
I/We believe the asset recovery agency lost all confidence in Brenda MacMillan and endorsed their full support for David and the new committee members, Donna Barnett and Harris Boyd. For those of us who question whether the agency really does exist, Brenda MacMillan herself assured all of us that they really do exist, as did David, who has worked with them for over a year and a half now. Brenda MacMillan no longer has any support or capability of helping us in our recovery efforts.
Yet we have discovered through new information that she is involved in the organization of yet another group of investors involving a scam called “Bridgecreek” along with her attorney, named Docken of Calgary who once represented our committee who has seemingly worked against us in this Brenda Fiasco.
We had our first clear indication that something was wrong through a recovery pool committee update dated April 19, 2010, David and the new committee members gave us the summary of all of the things that Brenda MacMillan had done to disrupt the committee, withhold information from the committee and interfering with the committee objective of focusing on recovering our investments.
Based on these demands and Brenda MacMillan raising questionable and inaccurate issues before the court, the funds destined for use in the recovery process were ordered into court pending further review. Effectively, Brenda MacMillan is preventing the recovery committee from having access to the funds they need and expected to have to continue with the recovery.
Brenda MacMillan consistently has delayed the proper legal due process and caused at very least confusion and unnecessary expenses with her various legal filings and maneuvers counter to the intentions of the REAL committee members (of whom she is NO LONGER a part).
On May 20, 2010, Mme Justice C.L. Kenny issued an injunction ordering Brenda MacMillan to turn over all of the documents and banking information she had previously refused to provide to David Saxe. Brenda MacMillan was ordered by the Courts to turn over all passwords to the recovery committee communication system, she was ordered to return the $60,000 she took without committee authorization and she was ordered not to communicate with participants from that day forward.
Brenda MacMillan ignored this court order.
On June 16, 2010, Justice Peter Clark found Brenda MacMillan in contempt of court for not complying with the court order issued on May 20, 2010, fined MacMillan $1,000.00 for this contempt and order MacMillan to comply with the order.
Again, Brenda MacMillan ignored this contempt order.
On July 22, 2010, an arrest order was issued against Brenda MacMillan for failure to comply with the two previous orders. Brenda MacMillan was arrested; she spent a night in jail and was ordered back into court the next day. At that time, MacMillan was ordered back into court on August 18, 2010 to show that she had complied with the contempt order.
On August 18th, Brenda MacMillan appeared in court, failed to produce any documents and advised the court that these documents were no longer in her possession. She was given one more week to advise the court where these documents were and when they were placed there. It was at this court hearing that Brenda verbally attacked and threatened Mr. Saxe
The real issue here is accountability. Our funds which were raised in order to hire the asset recovery agency to get our money back were being sent to a P.O. Box which Brenda MacMillan was responsible for. Brenda MacMillan was keeping the records of everyone who paid and was supposed to be making the deposits. Now, Brenda MacMillan is refusing to give David Saxe or anyone else on the committee access to all of this documentation.
As a committee member, David Saxe is entitled to have access to all of the documentation in accordance with the way the committee was set up. Also, according to the committee documents, David was supposed to have these documents so he could oversee the fact that all funds were received and accounted for correctly and to ensure that all funds received were turned over to the committee. This makes good sense because Brenda MacMillan controlled everything and a cross-check of her records is critical to ensure that she did not “misappropriate” any of our money.
What possible motive could Brenda MacMillan have in withholding these documents from David Saxe and preventing him from:
- Carrying out his mandate to help us recover our funds...?
- To verify that all money that was collected was turned over to the committee?
Why would Brenda MacMillan refuse to share the very information that all committee members have both a right to and a need for. If there is something to hide, what can that be? Again, ONLY ONE THING and you don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure that one out. Further she has often made the assertion that David Saxe couldn’t be trusted because he was a “structurist”. Yet we came to know that MacMillan also marketed for IFFL, had received commissions for bringing people to the company and was working on becoming a sturcturist herself.
I don’t know how much money Brenda MacMillan invested in IFFL, but I suspect she has now recovered her investment. Can we say the same thing about our investment? Not until she stops interfering with the recovery committee and its effort to recovery our funds. Money that should have been spent on our case has been squandered defending against and pursuing legal remedies related to the problems she has created for the committee and investors.
Finally Brenda MacMillan recently sold her home in Calgary, keeps money in offshore accounts and, I am told, has moved into hiding just North of Hillspring near Glenwood. She has claimed to be on our side always claiming to be "TRANSPARENT” - we think one of her favorite terms when describing herself. Her actions clearly demonstrate her real character - in the re-victimizing over 2600 people!
It is criminal for people to defraud others. It is unconscionable to defraud those who have already been defrauded and who have made one last move to recover their losses.
Brenda MacMillan is not our self appointed dictator. She was to be a voluntary servant who “stepped forward to ASSIST” all of us, at least that is who/what she held herself out to be. And once that was found to be false, she was removed with “good cause”. Who does this woman think she is? What arrogance! What self absorbed narcissism!

#2 - Release all login/passwords for the Gmail and Google
Group’s accounts and any other methods of correspondence used to send communications regarding this case.

Well I certainly must say this comes as quite a bit of a shock to me as I re-read this article several times.
I do not shock easily; however, I happen to be an ex-employee of one of her companies...and I can relate to the bit of *crazy* part. She certainly was not a predictable sort of personality; that much is a given.
I am not shocked as in I don't believe it. It's just you think you know someone and what their character is about.
I do hope she is located and you people all get your money back. I know this must be true or it wouldn't be here; too much at stake to post character assassination without backup.
And here I was looking to get in touch with her! Not happening now! I wonder if her websites are still up? Guess I'll go see.
I was a victim and tried to get Brenda to help me with questions. She was rude and very unconcerned with my plight. The above sure shows her true colors now. While she is working other victims cases apparently now, she has left us all out hanging in the wind! I sure hope they find out what she is really like before its too late!!! As I read back on her garbage I note she always screams about standing in transparency. She sure is unwilling to do that herself as she withholds all the records, money, and is about as transparent as a one ton boulder!! Now that I finally see what she looks like she reminds me of the Wicked Witch on the Wizard of Oz!!
This is not the first ponzi scam. But my condolences to you for getting caught up in it. We take people at their word, and they take advantage. If she has done anything criminal I hope she is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Those who sit in judgement must take the advisement of innocent until proven guilty. It sounds like the author of this hub may have something to offer to the authorities. Best of luck to you sir.
Well bgamall - THAT isn't exactly a newsflash! LOL.
Thing is - if one does not get the WORD out; these things have a tendancy to keep GROWING.
Thus, the page!
It is not a matter of *if* Brenda MacMillan has done anything wrong...it is a matter of bringing her to justice as well as getting back the money for the people who have already been defraude in the First place!
See - Brenda MacMillan is THE scummiest low-life scum of all; preying on those who have Already been had!
I don't mean to jump on your case for you *stating the obvious* - but geezzzz; the word has to get out and how better to do it!?

Thank for that Joe.
My thoughts exactly.
I am disgusted by the way she has handled herself. she keeps spouting off how she has been attacked physically as well as her character. Someone who claims to be so rightous certainly does not do what she is doing. It looks like that she is in it for one or two reasons. the first is obvious scam as much as she can the second which may be a long shot but perhaps she is secretly working with the two main culprits to sabatage any recovery of funds. Although the second one may be hard to prove but what other motive could she have?
This is interesting. I never knew this much. I mean I heard about what was public records and was following it all. Could not figure out why she was trying to upset this whole process. Clearly it was costing our group no matter why she claimed the why of what she was doing. Now its clear why she did not want Saxe to have the records! She would be found out for her crimes. Standing in transparency she claims, what B.S.!! Anyway, so off to the races I guess for her. She is already working another group of victims that she will rip off too I am sure. That crooked Lawyer Clint Docken is helping her after dumping us all and taking tens of thousands of our funds for himself! Her side kick in crime I heard was a lady named Anne Morman and Anne McCormick. As I learn things I will try to get the news out. I know for a fact she is the benefactor of a IBC called Black Ink. In the court records she lied like a dog and said she had no connection to Blackink! Can you believe the woman. She would lie if the truth sounded better as it seems to be her nature. Good luck to all in our quest!
Where is the legal presure from the canadian gov. to "bite" more forcefully. She should go to jail. If she is determinded by the court of wrong doing in these matters then she should face prosecution.
Like the rest of the white collar savages involved with this massive crime.
People have died because of the IFFL scam.
This IFFL and Brenda story should go to the hands of the courts and ask these people in charge of this Country's justice, what are they waiting to put everybody involved in this '' ROBERY'' in jail, for many years to come, and get all their belongings in order to recover some of our moneys. It seems that only here in Canada this king of S.O.B's get away with murder
Dear Carlos and fellow investor - I am shocked SICK that people have DIED over this.
BREANDA!! If you find and read this - does that make you FEEL ANYTHING!?!?!?
I am certain that the USA is also full of this type of arrogant thieving behaviour - doesn't matter where, all that matters is that Brenda Macmillan and her ilk are drug through the mud, made to return the funds of the poor people who have ALREADY been scammed before she does it to them AGAIN! - and goes to jail.
But...her type of personality trait being non-feeling inb nature - all she cares abouit is her OWN HIDE. She doesn't care about anyone else! - oh gezzz I hope she doesn't have children!?
Brenda, I trusted you! I feel so burned here and you should be so ashamed of yourself! What goes around comes around! I hope you get no peace in your life until you return all the poison fruits you stole from our group! Shame on you Ms. Blankink and yes I know you and YES I know you are behind the blackink name!
This woman and her lawyer; well they should combine and start a new firm called DEWEY, SCREWUM and HOWE. This is OUTRAGEOUS and I am in shock. Its hard to dispute facts. I have been looking over the court records and this woman has no shame! None! She will break our backs folks while she is out milking another cow! Already off with another group and could careless of what happens to us as long as she gets what she wants. UNFREAKIN BELIEVABLE!!
Look this seems a little unfair. I have known Brenda for years. Yes she is aggressive and likes to make money. She had to lie about a number of things to protect herself and she had no choice. Like condemning the structurist when she was one in training. Now the cat's out of the bag, so someone needs to let people know she had no choice but to lie! Give her a break! She has taken a number of people I know for a ride too but that is just her way. She has a take no prisoners approach and then if people do not like her, then take them out or get revenge. I know some of the victims were not very kind to her as they discovered what she was really like and that made her angry and this most likely is her way to get even. Yes I know she diverted tens of thousands of the victims money to her good friend Anne McCormick and that shows how she takes care of those that support her! Brenda was able to get tens of thousands of dollars to Anne and Anne then supports Brenda now, as Brenda calls it one hand washing the other. Don't be too hard on her. She has loyal friends like Clint Docken that is now helping her with her new group of people ( that really need her help)! I know she promised everyone that the money she had tucked away in hidden accounts was safe and the groups, but things change! She has expenses and needs that money. If Saxe would have just let her keep what she has taken this all would not be going on. Just give her whats she wants and it can all be over! I mean I love her dearly as a friend, I just never trust her with my money. You have to accept the good and the bad with people as Brenda says. Let her work her new victims from the BridgeCreek mess and keep the cash she took from the IFFL mess and everyone can move on. Just some things to think about. SUPPORT YOU ALL THE WAY BRENDA! YOU GO GIRL!! You were a great mentor and trainer and I learned a lot of ways to make it in this life from your Spiral Wizard thoughts. I will burn some incense for you!
Wow, I mean wow. What the ….. Is this for real? What the ….. If what PlayerOfFraud says is really true then I am numb. I got burned by IFFL and I trusted them and Sorenson. I swore I would not let my guard down and get taken again and now this. Winnipeg Warrior and Web Mechanic warned us about this Brenda Macmillan of Calgary. Man, I believed Brenda Macmillan of Calgary was the answer to our prayers, and NOW THIS, and to think she has gone on to a new game. BRIDGECREEK? Is this all just a sport for her? Are we all just “cannon fodder?” Hey was IFFL her first stab at the cat? Has she done this before? Does anybody have a real understanding of who she really is and where she came from?, (I almost could not believe my eyes when I read what “A Friend of Brenda” just posted), and who is this Docken character? I went to www.google.ca and Googled the term “Lawyer Docken Calgary” and the first hit I got was Docken & Company at 900, 800 – 6th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta T2P 3G3, Tel (403) 269-3612 http://www.docken.com/ I see a posting someone made mentions the name Clint Docken. On the Docken & Company website they have a webpage of the people at the firm. See http://www.docken.com/OurPeople.asp. It says they have a Clint G Docken there cgd@docken.com . I suppose this must be the guy? Also listed are a Mark C Freeman mcf@docken.com ; Patrick B Higgerty pbhiggerty@docken.com ; Gloria Wozniuk gw@docken.com ; San Kwok sk@docken.com. Hey, I don’t think this Clint Docken is going to like these postings up here as they are not exactly flattering. And now you say this same Clint G Docken is involved with Brenda Macmillan in a new game – “BRIDGECREEK?” I assume then that this BRIDGECREEK must be another investment fraud? Is Bridgecreek also another Alberta based fraud? How does Brenda Macmillan find these frauds? Does Docken find them for her? Did she also supposedly invest there too? Kinda looks fishy if she claims to invest in these investments that soon turn out to be frauds and then she magically comes to the rescue in the form of organizing a recovery effort? (someone correct me if I am wrong as I am not sure what her role is with this Bridgecreek fiasco)? And somehow this Clint G Docken guy just keeps his pig head at the trough?, now I am a little confused by PlayerOfFrauds comment that this Clint G Docken also once represented our Committee? If that is true then surely there would now be a conflict if he was representing Brenda against us? When our (Committee) funds were ordered into court did Clint G Docken have any role in that and if so what was it and who was he representing? Was Brenda his client or was the Committee his client? According to “A Friend of Brenda” this Docken is her close friend. Man, did he cross the line? Was his client actually the Committee, yet he acted contrary to their interests? I am a little confused ? PlayerOfFraud if you are wrong about things then this guy Clint G Docken QC is going to be pissed at you, and I don’t think that is a healthy position to be in. So now what? Can somebody? Anybody?DO? tell me now what? What will happen to the recovery effort? Did it just die? What will happen to all of us? What if anything will happen to Brenda Macmillan? Has anybody else verified what PlayerOfFraud is claiming? Tell me this isn’t true and I can wake up from this nightmare? Or else tell me what are we all going to do about it? Tell me something that gives me HOPE? Tell me at least that The RCMP will examine all this. NOW it is alleged that she herself, that hypocrital little SOB was also receiving investment commissions from investors she introduced to IFFL. Does anyone have any proof or confirmation of this?
The real issue here is accountability. Our funds which were raised in order to hire the asset recovery agency to get our money back were being sent to a P.O. Box which Brenda MacMillan was responsible for. How come we all allowed her to be the only one who had access to all this? Did we all just trust her at the time, or why was it that we set things up in such a way as we allowed just one person (Brenda MacMillan) to keep the records of everyone who paid and was supposed to be making the deposits. Now, Brenda MacMillan is refusing to give David Saxe or anyone else on the committee access to all of this documentation. This was either manipulated or very stupid on the part of all the investors. Hey if we all kept our receipts possibly we could all submit proof of payment to David Saxe, and possibly Saxe could recalculate what the figures should be? (Just a thought?) I notice another posting comment made by FRANK VERMEER. Maybe she really is working for the Sorenson side. Oh man I shudder the thought. Could she really be another Sorenson scam, or asset used to divert our efforts? It may be great to have her in court one day and on the witness stand and under oath. Wow, I just thought if she was really working with Sorenson, then where does Clint Docken fit in? Would she lie to him too or would he willingly look the other way, just so long as the cash was good?
Anyway Brenda, if you are dirty girl, then I hope your armpits are invested by the fleas of a 1000 camels, and you know the saying, you can run but you can’t hide, and a Mountie Always get his Man/woman.
May true justice prevail.
Brenda Shame on you! You knifed us all in the back and spit in our faces for your own sick personal gain! I sure wish you could stand in transparency for once in your life and stop hiding behind lawyers! Some of the same ones the victims paid then they turn on the victims and help you with new groups! Shame, Shame Shame! Some people just have no shame!
I have a contact that is a friend of someone in the know, a reliable source and Brenda is actually calling herself a whistle blower and she feels that is why she is being brought into a accounting. She is actually attempting to convince the various folks and agencies I am told that the ONLY reason all of this is happening is she is the bright shining star standing in transparency, blowing her whistle on the bad people like Saxe, recovery group and their lawyers. She is failing to tell the authorities of her hidden accounts, failure to disclose income for taxes, lies, money she has taken and other crimes she has engaged in! The very idea, a Whistle Blower! My Good gosh, this woman is beyond insanity! She has failed to tell the powers that be that every single person involved with her in this whole recovery process has called her off balance and unstable. I hope and pray the truth comes out and that the authorities do not fall pray to her sick, evil, deceitful, twisted have truths and misleading ways.
Thank you for all of your comments.
I have been doing some deep research. What I am about to say I know as 100% fact: 1) Brenda refused to allow anyone to volunteer in her office to help. She claimed no one of us could be trusted. There was a number of people that said they would do it. 2) Then she stated only her friend Anne McCormick could help and it was important she was paid $50.00 an hour to help. $50.00 a HOUR to do what!?!? Tens of thousands went to this woman Anne. Brenda stated that it was a good deal because she (Brenda) was FREE. BE CAREFUL WHEN SOMEONE SAYS ITS FREE, THERE AINT NO FREE LUNCH IN THIS LIFE!! 3) Brenda then demanded $60,000.00 as wages and billed for it. This was sent to her company Blackink in a offshore account that she paid no tax on. 4) Then she claimed it was money she tricked the Agency into giving her. This she further claimed was being held safely for the victims. 5) This is NOW part of money she says is her's for "services rendered". NOW, this is all fact and watch as in the end this group of victims may be forced to give this person $60,000.00 cash, spend over $100,000.00 in fees she ran up against us so she can black mail this group into her wishes. I hope the RCMP investigates the funds she took, and the TAX MAN investigators her and her buddy Anne McCormick for tax evasion and failure to declare this hidden money she has in various over seas accounts.
Who is this friend Anne McCormick? I have tried to Google her at http://www.google.ca but I don’t get very accurate results. Can you tell me anything more about her? Address and phone number and email info would be good. Approx age, or even date of birth. Right now there is not much for a posse to go on. Is she from Calgary? I saw an obituary in relation to a family in Red Deer at http://web.bcnewsgroup.com/portals-code/obits.cgi? ? McCORMICK Ruth On Sunday, April 15, 2007, Ruth Helen McCormick passed away peacefully at the Red Deer Regional Hospital. She is survived by her daughters, Sharon McCormick, Anne McCormick and sons, Delbert (Doreen) McCormick, Leonard (Dianne) McCormick, Roy (Pat) McCormick, Bill (Brenda) McCormickCould that be her family?
In any event do you have specific information on who made cheques payable to Anne McCormick, and what the amounts were and the cheque#’s ? Do you have any confirmation on where they were deposited? Are you able to get Anne McCormick’s bank account numbers where she deposited the cheques to? And which banks she used?
Did she provide any paperwork receipts showing company names she may have been using or DBA?
If so then please put all the info up here online so CCRA and others can easily access it. I think many of us would be too happy to give CCRA a phone call and point to this site. I am sure CCRA can get SIN numbers from banks based on account numbers, so should be quite effortless to verify if the income was reported. I assume this was 2009?
RE: Docken & Company are a class action company, so it seems from their website. Old Clint Docken goes back into frauds that were news in the Bre Ex days (I believe he also played some role in the Bre Ex matters that dogged the courts for years to follow). I think he must just attract these shady types (unless he is one)
It is rather interesting how Brenda Macmillan is now close with him (so to speak, if what I read in earlier reports are true. Could this be his last swing at the cat? Hell if he is dirty then we may as well get the Bar association to look at him just as CCRA may look at Anne McCormick.
Hey, Sick to my stomach, are you able to get any of the details on this offshore account of Brenda's under the name BlackInk? How do you know she paid no tax on it? Possibly she failed to report the income? Anyway, would love to get any of those particulars if you have them
I have heard from a number of people, that Brenda would threaten to rip the TESTICLES off any man that she felt did not go along with her ideas, concepts and ways of doing things!! YIKES!! I think I will stay away from this woman as I like my nuts and think from what I am reading and finding out on my own she would do it!! She is a man hater and calls all men "Apes that shave". I think it is time to really just call Brenda what she really was, a man hater and she really hated anyone that was a Republican or Conservative. I mean HATES them! This is why this whole mess is where it is today, Brenda's hatred of anyone that does not think and do as she demands!
Just a comment to save my nuts; I have heard the very same thing you talk about in your post from a lot of folks that know her and a LOT LOT more that is much worse. She is a hateful, spiteful person that is extremely self serving. She puts everyone else in the world last and herself first. Its her nature.
Wanted to clear up a comment that I simply did not state correctly, the way in which I intended it to be said and mean. Brenda McMillian is the owner of Blackink IBC not Anne McCormick. Anne McCormick took funds for work that her and Brenda concocted such as replying to thousands of emails they claimed came in that never took place. Anne McCormick has supported Brenda's position and helped her wrongfully take funds for hours never worked that did not belong to either of them. Most of the things people I know have learned about Brenda's actions, have came directly from the loose lips of Brenda McMillian and Anne there are TWO Anne's BTW and other people Brenda has shot her mouth off to and gave copies of documents she felt supported her position. The problem is you just can't fix stupid and most of the things Brenda has said or shown supports the fact she has lied and mislead people drastically.
Hello PlayerOfFraud, please help me out here. I would like to contact Revenue Canada (CCRA) and ask them to look into this Brenda Macmillan of Calgary. I checked the Fullquadrant.com domain name and came up with:

or wherever she has moved to now, but I need a little bit of help from your research if you don't mind?
What information can you tell me about her company Blackink? What is Blackinks full corporate name and where is it domiciled, and where are it's bank accounts? Is Brenda Macmillan the sole shareholder? I see in a posting from "Benson" that Brenda MacMillan lied to the court and denied any connection to Blackink. Hey if you can prove she lied to the court, then help me out and show me. I will take it to the RCMP. Benson, can you tell me any more information about who this Anne McCormick is? I tried Googling the name at http://www.google.ca and as you can imagine there are lots of Anne McCormick around. I see another posting mentions this Anne McCormick received tens of thousands that Brenda Macmillan diverted from the victims. Can anyone tell me if there is any documented evidence to show this, because if so then we need to see if this income was reported to CCRA.
The $60,000 payment you mention that Brenda Macmillan just took. Can you tell me how she took this payment? Did she just write a check and make a deposit into her bank account? Which account was the check from? Which account was the check deposited to? Can you tell me what date/s this transaction took place? Do you have the bank records? What was this payment supposed to be for? Was she holding the funds for safekeeping or was this income she should report? (If not income then CCRA will not be interested).I note it is mentioned that the court had ordered her to return the funds she took without Committee authorization. (Taking funds without authorization is theft??? Hello R C M P!) Can I assume then that the bank that had the funds was a bank account of the Committee's? Can I assume that the funds in the Committee's bank account all came from investors who joined the Recovery Effort? Do you know if she had signing powers on that account? (if not then possibly fraud is involved?)
PlayerOfFraud, Benson, Friend of Brenda, can you post any of the answers to my questions up here so we can all see?
What to do about Brenda MacMillan?
I vote all of the above
It was enough to be scammed by Brost, Werner and Sorenson. Sitting in front of Brost and being so convinced my little hard earned money was in good hands and would be able to live a great retirement to LOSE IT ALL - MY HOME, MY FAMILY, MY SANITY, ALMOST MY LIFE! Everything you worked your whole life for and to get a little bit more. AND THEN, BRENDA MacMILLAN,WITH NO HEART, no care in the world that there are some of us that lost the roof over our heads and can't work that threw in the last pennies we had in desperation to the recovery group to try to claim some of our life back does not give a DAMN if some of us barely can buy food, have to rely on living with friends, suffer deep depression and want to end it all because you have made life look even bleaker with squandering the little money we had given to the recovery group in deep desperation for survival. Do you not feel any guilt that you have a roof over your head and you have stolen our money. How can you live with yourself and look in the mirror knowing that people have died because of their losses and your contributing even more to our loss. Do you want to see us bleed at your feet? Is it your nature to see people suffer? Do you enjoy running and hiding from the truth and just waiting until you do get thrown in jail. YOUR TIME IS GOING TO COME! WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND! YOU HAVE TO BE A VERY SICK WOMAN TO WANT TO SEE SO MANY PEOPLE SUFFER BY YOUR WRONG DOING! I AM SICK, SICK, SICK! YOU ARE BASICALLY A MURDERER OF HEARTS, LIVES & DREAMS AND IN THE END YOU WILL BE SQUASHED BY YOUR OWN WRONG DOINGS! JUST THINK OF THE IMPURITIES THAT ARE GROWING IN YOUR BODY RIGHT NOW!
I OFFER NO HELP FOR SINNERS SUCH AS YOURSELF!
Brenda how do you sleep at night! You have always talked about all the ill David Saxe did, you never came out with anything that had any proof and they have shown a ton that shows you are a heartless, sick Bitch!!! How dare you!! No one hired you to take our files and our money and then pretend as if you are holding it for our good!! How dare you!!! You have wasted our money, our time and our hope away!! What goes around comes around and your day will come!! Then you move into your nice snug little home while there are some of us that are losing ours while you shoved money of ours in hidden off shore banks! Safely being held for our benefit you say then you are demanding to keep it as part of some package you think you earned, how dare you!!!
ENJOY THE MONEY YOU RIPPED OFF YOU SICK EVIL WITCH! SOMEONE GRAB A BUCKET OF WATER AND THROW IT ON HER!!!
This is really screwed up, we have already been screwed by IFFL and now this woman, well she might be a woman, doesn't look like much of a woman.
It looks to me like she new exactly what she was doing,and scammed us all again. It just goes to show you what you can get away with in this country,if you know how the system works. After all, look at all the ponzi scams going on,and it seems the only way justice is served, is if these scam artists admit to it.Does anyone think that they are all going to admit to their crimes? NOT.. And the ones who don't, basically get a slap on the wrist,and are sent off to do it again.It's
time the justice system in this country(Canada) gets off their ass,and actually does something about these crooks.
DO NOT LET BRENDA FOOL YOU!! SHE WAS WORKING HARD TOWARD BEING A STRUCTURIST!! She was IN TRAINING, getting commissions from people she victimized. I hope to have some info to post to prove this one out soon. She really is one of the biggest hypocrites in HISTORY! Truth will come out and she will have to be forced to finally stand in transparency!!
I heard from a very good source Brenda has ran to authorities claiming she is the victim!! I sure hope any detective worth his/her salt starts to dig into the hidden accounts, the lies, the deception, taxes her and her Anne friend decided not to pay. I sure hope they dig and dig and dig on her background. Ask her the hard questions! She has said on a number of occasions how STUPID law enforcement is. I have heard a number of people say the same thing they heard her say that and that people that pay taxes are stupid. Now she RUNS to them and demands their help! She has balls I will give her that, she has BALLS!
I had to run to my toilet and literally hurl!! All the post seem like they are based on solid info and I do not see anything that supports her in any court info I have reviewed. All just things that confirm what others have warned us about on her. I never wanted to believe it, but now I am 100% convinced we are dealing with a con artist and she is already working her next group of victims with Bridge Creek! I hope some of them find out about her before she rips them too! What is this world coming to!!
I am so ashamed of you Brenda!! You are not the spiral Wizard you claimed to be! Maybe a raving Witch, but certainly no wizard!
Well, whats new!?! Brenda has been doing this type of thing to a lot of people in the past. I googled her name on other issue and I see she is right back at it! She has to be brought to justice some day or she will just keep doing this to people! She nailed me before and I wish I could say but I know if I do she will know who this is and then most likely make good on the threats she made at me before when I asked her to make right on the money she ripped me off for!!
Hello Posters, thank you for all your comments.
Here are some of my responses to some questions posted.
Anne McCormick of Calgary; email is anne1250@hotmail.com ; From Cut Knife, Saskatchewan, but currently resides in the Calgary area during the warmer months, she tends to travel to warmer climates during Canadian winter months. Ms.Anne McCormick was Brenda MacMillans' sidekick and possibily her partner in crime to defraud the investors of money they had contributed for the recovery. Brenda MacMillan billed $10,000's of thousands of dollars to the recovery pool trust fund to pay Ms. Anne McCormick. Information recieved was that Brenda MacMillan billed 100's of hours for Anne McCormick at a rate of $50.00 an hour for helping Brenda MacMillan shuffle paperwork etc..
We believe that the new recovery committee has some of the records that show that Anne McCormick was paid large sums of money. We do not know if she actually received it all or if the money really went to Brenda MacMillan or if they conspired to split the money. But, another interesting thing is that Brenda MacMillan seems to still be withholding information from the committee even after being ordered by the court and found in contempt. I and my fellow investors believe that she is doing this for fear that further malfeasance will be discovered. I wouldn't be surprised if she helped herself to the cookie jar as the money came in.
According to information we've found indicate that BlackInk was incorporated in the Bahamas by Brenda MacMillan for the purpose of opening "Offshore" Bank accounts. One of her email addresses is Blackink@telus.net
According to court records we understand Ms. Brenda MacMillan had $60,000 of the Recovery Pool money wired to an "Off-Shore" Bank account she holds in Antigua at Global Bank. We understand that she took the $60,000 in October of 2009 and we understand that the Recovery Committee does have a copy of the records of that transaction. In one statement we understand that she said that it was for her services preformed. Then in another statement she has stated that she took the money to a 3rd party's "Off-Shore" bank account to hold the money for safe keeping.
We do not know specifically what account she took or had the funds wired from. But, she definitely was not authorized by the committee representatives to take the money at all and no she has not returned the money to the committee even though that was part of the courts order from our understanding. Yes the money was from funds we all contributed. She continues to stall and run up legal bills for no logical reason that we can figure other then to protect herself. If she had nothing to hide, why not just give back what the committee has asked for and walkaway, it just makes no sense unless there is something she doesn't want found out.
We heard a rumor through a reliable source that in July when this matter began heating up she moved her accounts from Antigua to Panama. It seems apparent you're right on track as it is very likely that she is laundering money and/or attempting to evade the CRA. I / we can think of no other reason for this type of banking activity. We also discovered that she recently sold her house in Calgary for $500,000.00 it would be interesting to see if she sent that money "Off-Shore" also.
We believe her new address may be: 373 Main Ave NE
GLENWOOD, AB T0K 2R0 Just North of Hillspring
When the recovery committee was first formed, a good deal of effort was made to highlight the importance of keeping the 'Agency' and other behind the scenes players confidential. There was no public scrutiny of any sort as the 'Agency' stressed that confidentiality was key to its success. So we all blindly paid our $750. to a shadowy organization who would operate outside of but not in conflict with the law to retrieve our investments.
Lies can only thrive in the dark. Brenda et al claimed the secrecy was critical to the 'Agency's' success; That if we told anyone outside of the 'group', the entire process would fail. When there was a suspected breach in the email security, a new communication process was quickly established. It was paramount to maintain secrecy at all costs and the threat of additional financial loss was used to bully us into allowing the Recovery Committee to operate in complete isolation and darkness. Lies can only thrive in the dark.
Does anyone else feel like a goat?
Hello PlayerOfFraud, Thank you for your answers. It seems like the Recovery Committee may be in possession of critical information that could piece together Brenda Macmillan and Anne McCormick and any other accomplices.
I have another question. I notice that sometimes (most of the time) you refer to yourself as the person who is doing this reporting/investigation, however you also refer to "WE" many times (for example in the 5th paragraph you have "Over time, we have received reports "). I was just wondering exactly who you were? Are you a single investor?, or a group of investors?, or how do you fit in, and if you are not part of the Recovery Committe, then where do you get all this info?
Hello SadderButWiser, you have raised an interesting comment that I am sure must be on many peoples minds.I believe it was actually Brenda Macmillan who stated the importance of keeping the "Agency" and other behind
the scenes players confidential. Well, after all I have stated above, you may find it strange that I could possibly agree with anything Brenda had said, but in this particular situation there was what appears to me to have been a classic "Catch 22" situation.
I cannot speak for the Agency but I can tell you from my own perspective that it would not be very helpful for the effort if Gary Sorenson and his goon sqaud of lawyers and possible hitmen were to also become aware of exactly who the Agency was. It only makes sense that they (the Agency) would need to remain annonymous in order to be effective, and furthermore can you imagine if it became known who the Agency were, then up to 3000 individual investors would possibly start calling them and ask individually for a progress report. The Agency would not want to allow that situation to arise.
Your comment "There was no public scrutiny of any sort as the 'Agency' stressed that confidentiality was key to its success. So we all blindly paid our $750. to a shadowy organization who would operate outside of but not in conflict with the law to retrieve our investments.
Well actually there are a few things that need to be corrected or at least restated here for things to be presented in context. The Agency setup a policy of guidelines and procedures that members of the Recovery Committee needed to sign, before the Agency would take the case (were you aware of that?, because I believe this is mentioned in the court records). Indeed the Recovery Committe were the ones entrusted with raising the funds and hiring the Agency and were responsible for accounting to the members for the funds raised. I agree that there should have been more transparency here, and indeed many of us had concerns exactly about this, but in the end those of us who decided to go forward did so possibly because we all felt comfortable, or we were at least willing to take a chance? Herein lies the problem. It seems that the Recovery Committe itself had a rouge
member (Brenda Macmillan; how ironic?), who managed to manipulate the situation that allowed for her to be the only set of official eyes on the cookie jar. (On a side note it appears she may be in the process of doing this exact same thing again to a whole new set of scammed and defrauded investors from an investment program called "Bridgecreek", so heads up to those poor folks) The problems that now exist between Brenda Macmillan and the Recovery Committee is because Brenda Macmillan failed to follow the protocols set in place by the agreement the Agency required all Committee members to sign.
Your comment "We blindly paid our $750 to a shadowy organization who would operate outside of but not in conflict with the law to retrieve our investments.
Well to be specific, your/our $750 went to the Recovery Group that was being formed. The recovery Committee hired or contracted the Agency. The Agency as I understand it was not given all the funds. It seems that The Recovery Committee maintained control of these and hence the problems now as Brenda Macmillan who maintained exclusive control (against the policies and guidelines setup by the Agency) is now suspected of possibly skimming from those who signed up and further she possibly created the need for administrative services performed by her friend Anne McCormick. A further tool she utilizes is that she is able to give direct instructions to the law firm of Docken & Company who tend to hold the funds in trust.These issues are now being decided before the courts. Don't you see, that we can't get the Agency to help us when we are fighting someone who was supposed to be on our team? This is the tragedy in my opinion.I beleive Brenda has a lot to hide about the way she managed the funds for the Recovery Committee,(Brenda was the one who received all
the investor checks and credited the appropriate investor accounts as to whom had paid to join and I do not believe she has truthfully credited each account of each investor who sent funds, as she is trying not to provide those documents to the Recovery Committee as she has been ordered by the court to do so, and she is therefore trying to sabotage the Recovery Effort so that it fails. You see, if the Recovery Effort fails then there will be no recovery to divide up, and therefore those investors who contributed will not need to be accounted for (does that make sense?) I once thought that maybe she was being paid by Sorenson, but then I decided that not even Sorenson would work with someone like Brenda (I guess Sorenson has standards)
Brenda is trying to hide and run. Her new email address she is using is abideawee@figment.ca in case you have questions for her.
Her new private number she sure does not want investors to have is 403-626-4478. I know she will be mad at me for letting folks know what it is, but I feel very betrayed by her too! She has really embarrassed us all! I know her better then most and she has simply went sideways and money is the only thing that seems to matter to her anymore. She fooled a lot of people and if you were one of those that were fooled, do not be too hard on yourself. She is slick!
Hi PlayerofFraud, Thanks for your explanation but I have to take issue with two comments:
1) The recovery committee had selected the Agency before coming to us for our contribution otherwise they wouldn't have known how much they needed to collect. The money was going to the agency via the recovery committee. That the agency didn't receive all of it is a separate issue but they must have received an amount sufficient to deter them from pursuing Brenda as well. Seems to me that Brenda would be an easier nut to crack than Sorenson, his lawyers, and hitmen and there's over $2m to be accounted for.
2) I don't agree that anonymity = effectiveness. The agency created a website to communicate with Gary (theagency2greywolf.org) which contained a wealth of publicly available 'evidence'. Did Gary ever respond? I doubt it. In my opinion it would have been more effective had it identified who they were rather than a vague and historically misaligned reference to the Knights Templar - An order of Knights whose reputation as elite warriors was one of their greatest weapons.
With respect to bombarding the Agency with our requests for progress updates, the recovery committee wouldn't accept our calls nor reply to an email. I don't imagine the Agency would have either.
In this case anonymity was intended to keep us in the dark and at arm's length from a shadowy organization.
Nonetheless, I'm still sad but perhaps a little wiser after your informative response. I appreciate it.
Hello SadderButWiser, thank you very much for your honest response. I am happy to see someone cares. I will attempt to respond to the comments you posted from my perspective.
Your comment - The recovery committee had selected the Agency before coming to us for our contribution otherwise they wouldn't have known how much they needed to collect.
Response: - AGREED in part. I think that the Recovery Committee being (Nigel Brisbane, David Saxe, Kirk Mosdell, Glenn Selig and Brenda Macmillan) selected the Agency and then asked people to join the effort.
The actual amount of funds the Agency was to pursue would depend on who joined and how much those persons had invested. The Agency only has a mandate to collect on behalf of those that joined, therefore the Agency only found out afterwards how much they were trying to collect/recover.
Your comment- The money was going to the agency via the recovery committee. That the agency didn't receive all of it is a separate issue but they must have received an amount sufficient to deter them from pursuing Brenda as well.
Response: - My understanding was that the Agency was going to have their investigative costs covered and would receive a percentage of the funds recovered, therefore the Agency is not owed anything at this point, however because of internal issues within the Recovery Committee itself, there is no funding available for the Agency to continue (at least this is my understanding)
Your comment - Seems to me that Brenda would be an easier nut to crack than Sorenson, his lawyers, and hitmen and there's over $2m to be accounted for.
Response: - Well, I agree Brenda may be an easier nut to crack, but it is the Recovery Committee that needs to go after Brenda. The Agency only has a mandate to go after Sorenson et al. The Agency has no interest in Brenda (other than damages she may have caused them). As far as the $2m you refer to, that is an interesting question, because I assume you are referring to the $750 joining fee x 3000 investors? If so then herein lies an unknown. Does anyone besides Brenda actually know how many people actually sent $750, because my understanding was not everyone could afford the joining fee and the Recovery Committee was supposed to accept people who signed up and then committed to make payments at a later date, and there were also some people who paid more than $750 to cover those who could not, etc, etc so now that Brenda is refusing to turn over all the documents, how is anyone to know exactly what is what? That seems to be the problem in my mind.
Your comment - I don't agree that anonymity = effectiveness. The agency created a website to communicate with Gary (theagency2greywolf.org) which contained a wealth of publicly available 'evidence'.
Response: - I am not so sure all that evidence was publically available before they posted it
Your comment - In my opinion it would have been more effective had it identified who they were rather than a vague and historically misaligned reference to the Knights Templar - An order of Knights whose reputation as elite warriors was one of their greatest weapons.
Response: - I get your point, but I do not wholeheartedly agree. It all depends on just who the Agency really is/are? If they are a really powerful force that are intimidating (such as IRS, or SEC, or FBI) then I would agree. If on the otherhand they are a more intelligence based organization that operate clandestinely then it may not serve them to identify themselves. The point is it really depends on who they really are, and it is unfortunate we were all required to have to trust the judgement of others on this one.
Your comment - With respect to bombarding the Agency with our requests for progress updates, the recovery committee wouldn't accept our calls nor reply to an email. I don't imagine the Agency would have either.
My only response to this is that investors joined the Recovery Group, and it is the Recovery Group that should communicate with the investors, so it falls on the shoulders of whomever was/is in charge of communicating on behalf of the Recovery Group/Committee (I believe that was supposed to be Brenda Macmillan)
In closing, I am not so sure I have all the answers to all the questions, but I hope that this blog can serve some useful purpose. I am concerned Brenda Macmillan has taken advantage of both the Recovery Committee as well as all the investors who joined.
Hi PlayerofFraud, If the Agency was to receive a cut of whatever $$ they recovered, I assume it would be very worthwhile for them to see the Brenda/Recovery Committee issue resolved. But that's just another assumption because there are no answers coming from the Recovery Committee. Lots of advice to 'hang in there' but no explanation.
It occurred to me that Gary is reading this as well - his people are aware that the Agency is toothless because the Recovery Committee is mired in an internal investigation. In light of that, by remaining anonymous, the Agency has saved itself any undue embarrassment (apologies for the cattiness).
Thanks again.
Hello SadderButWiser,
I completely agree with everything you just said. Kinda sad isn't it? I believe Gary A Sorenson got a few hundred $million, so maybe it was worth selling his soul for?, but I believe Brenda Macmillan and her friend Anne McCormick of Calgary sold us out for a few pennies in comparison. Amazing what human greed can do? Man is definitely an animal, and it seems will always prey on the weaker and vulnerable in our society. I just hope that there is such a thing as judgement day in each of their lives.
Farmer Brown,
I appoligize for not having responded to your 3 day old enquiry.
I agree that the Recovery Committe is possibly sitting on a welath of information that could help provide answers to just exactually what Brenda Macmillan did while a member of the Recovry Committee. I imagine a simple audit will probably speak volumes. The concern at the moment is whether and what Brenda Macmillan may have handed over. I mean, if you think the gig may be up then you have nothing to lose by going for broke. Anne McCormick of Calgary is proably the easier nut to carck. Think she was more easily led by Brenda where and under whos control did the funds end up. Make no mistake if Anne McCormick did not truthfully report all her income then we absolutely want her to be prosecuted to the fullest extend of the law. I beleive it is a matter in the public interest. Anne ,I don't think you realize how easier it is turning out to be to identify you.
Lets start with where you are from which is Cut Knife Saskatchewan.(How many Anne McCormicks from there?)
How many Anne McCormicks from Cut Knife Saskatchewan do you think there are doing banking transactions with Brenda Macmillan related entities.
How many different Anne McCormicks of Calgary do you think will have incoming telephone and email calls from Brenda Macmillan of Calgary and vice versa.
All we have to demonstrate an interest from a CCRA investigator, and given the level of public interest in Calgary, it will be coming sooner than you think.
Hey, if you really want to protect yourself, either leave Canada for a non extradition country or you could contact me at ifflinvestorburnedagain@hushmail.com.
Depending on what you have to say will depend on where we go from there.
It would be really freaky if we just phoned you at your house one day, but I forgot, it is getting close to that time of year when you like taking off for warmer climates. Anyway, as you consider your new winter location this year, just consider the jails they have in those countries while you may be waiting extradition.
Now Farmer Brown, Yes I agree I have posted under the name PlayerOfFraud. Let me ask you a question. Did you really think that just one investor could have come up with all my statements and claims? I must confess that there are a few of my close friends and fellow investors that have decided we can all work together as agroup and we share our research and discuss each posting pefore allowing to go out, just so that we do not lose focus of what we are trying to achieve.
Our aims and focus are simple.
We want accountability from all those whom have made representations to us, that were clearly lies.
It seems Brenda is fighting tooth and nail like a masked shrew, determined to avoid having to hand over the documentation the Recover Committee needs in order to do an audit. This speaks volumes to me. With her Brenda babbles, does anyone truly understand her anymore. I don;t like having to think to hard and she seems to talk in riddles.
Anyway, did I answer your question?
PlayerOfFraud
What is the truth? I too was duped by Milo et al. By et al, I also include my Structurist. He doesn't want to talk about it.
Interestingly, Brebda has given us updates on what was going on. More than can be said about the Recovery Committee. And they won't answer guestions! We don't really know anything about any of the posters on this site. They could be just as misleading as Milo. Why did the Recovery Group give all that authority to Brenda? Surely they would have had more than one person needed for signing authority!! All I know is, I am not giving any of them any more money!
Hello Skeptical, I agree with all you say. (Exactly what is the TRUTH? Will we ever really know?) The Recovery Group is in a legal battle with Brenda Macmillan at the moment and therefore willnot/cannot comment. Brenda Macmillan puts out information when she has supposedly been ordered by the court not to communicate any further, so what the heck are we all supposed to think or do? It seems nobody can talk about it?
On May 20, 2010, Mme Justice C.L. Kenny issued an injunction ordering Brenda MacMillan to turn over all of the documents and banking information she had previously refused to provide to the Recovery Committee. Brenda MacMillan was ordered by the Courts to turn over all passwords to the recovery committee communication system, she was ordered to return the $60,000 she took without committee authorization and she was ordered not to communicate with participants from that day forward. Brenda MacMillan ignored this court order. I am not sure I have the answer but I sure wish that the RCMP would investigate!
If this wasn't so sad, I'd be laughing. The recovery committee collects all that money from investors to recover their loss but can't even deal with one of it's members! How the hell do we expect them to get any money back from the REAL experts - Sorenson, etc. People - where did we get this idiots!! So here they are just trying to get the recovery money. Guess how long it's going to be before they even get around to attempting to recover the invested money. HAH NEVER!!!
Don't anyone EVER ask me or anyone for money again!
Say NO, if more money is requested! - Scammed, only to be Scammed Again.
Thanks, for making me realize how stupid I was!
Brenda MacMillian is at it again! She is being investigated by RCMP and BCSC for involvement with World Money. She lost tens of thousands of dollars in this and I wonder who's money it was she was using!! I hope people start making some serious complaints about this woman to the authorities and powers that be! Then she is working this Bridge Creek! How many people has she suckered! Yes, there is rotten apples in every box. That does not make those that were approached by her the bad people here. She injected herself into this recovery effort to high-jack it. No one picked her.
BRENDA IS HIDING FROM EVERYONE. SHE IS HIDING ACCOUNTS, HAS OUR MONEY OVERSEAS AND ADMITS IT!! CALL HER AT 403-626-4478 or email her at abidewee@figment.ca this is her latest info!!
EXHIBITS AND PROOF FROM BRENDAS OWN SECRET EMAIL ACCOUNTS ARE NOW GOING AROUND SHOWING PROOF POSITIVE SHE LIED IN COURT!!! SHE IS BLACKINK HOLDINGS INC AND DIRECTS, CONTROLS, AND DECIDES WHERE THE MONEY GOES. HER CLAIM UNDER OATH TO THE COURT IS BLACKINK WAS A THIRD PARTIES THAT SHE HAD NO CONTROL OVER, THAT SHE HAD TO CHECK WITH A THIRD PARTY TO EVEN KNOW IF MONEY SHE DEMANDED BE WIRED TO HER FOR HER USE OF 60K HAD ARRIVED AND OTHER LIES. THESE EMAILS STRINGS THAT I HAVE NOW PERSONALLY SAW SHOW THE REAL TRUTH. SHE IS A BOLD FACE LIAR AND THERE IS NO TWO WAYS ABOUT IT!. WE HAVE A CONTACT IN CALGARY THAT SAYS SHE IS GETTING A SECRET MEETING WITH HER LAWYERS AT DOCKENS OFFICE TO DISCUSS HER OPTIONS! SHE IS PISSED ALL HER SECRETS ARE LEAKING OUT! ITS MY UNDERSTANDING THERE ARE MORE AND MORE DOCUMENTS THAT WILL BE RELEASED SOON! THIS IS BRENDAS WICKY LEEKS NIGHTMARE! FROM WHAT I HEAR IF THIS SICK EVIL WITCH WOULD JUST RETURN ALL THE MONEY SHE TOOK FROM THE VICTIMS EVERYONE COULD GO THEIR OWN WAYS. NOT BRENDA, SHE IS GOING TO KEEP THE VICTIMS MONEY AND KEEP PAYING MONEY TO LAWYERS. SHE MUST REALLY BE STUPID AS NONE OF THAT IS GOING TO DO HER ONE BIT OF GOOD! SHE REALLY HONESTLY THINKS IF SHE JUST KEEPS SPENDING THE VICTIMS MONEY AND GIVING IT TO HER LAWYERS SHE WILL FIND PEACE IN HER LITTLE PLACE IN THE COUNTRY. WE WILL POST DIRECTIONS SOON TO HER ADDRESS SO ANYONE THAT DIRECTION CAN SEE HOW SHE IS SPENDING THE VICTIMS MONEY. HAS A NICE LITTLE PLACE. SHE WAS SPOTTED BY A DETECTIVE WATCHING TURKEYS BEING KILLED AND PROCESSED! I GUESS SHE WANTED TO GET A BETTER IDEA OF HOW ALL THE VICTIMS OF HER ACTIONS ARE FEELING!! SHE IS TRULY SICK!
Brenda has been ordered by the courts to return the victims money that she has caused to be tied up with the courts and ordered to pay thousands in court cost. I sure hope it was worth it for her to cause all this problem for her our sick twisted gain. She should be so ashamed of herself! She still has thousands over seas in her hidden account. This will be next!
Brenda appears to be in some VERY deep trouble right now, very deep! She is ordered to release all funds, $10,000.00 she must pay in cost to the victims lawyers, $100,000.00 in default judgment. She has over seas money she has hidden to avoid taxes. She is getting deeper and deeper in serious hot water. All that Spiral Wizard garbage of hers does not seem to be helping her!
Well, I can tell you a little secret, something MAJOR is coming to Brenda, the cut throat traitor who knifed every victim in the back and spit in their faces. I can not say what I have heard and was able to verify because I do not want her to run again, but what is coming will bring her to her knees more so then anything else that has ever hit her and she will experience something that she will never forget until the day she dies. I think I can safely say she will loose every dime she has and most likely will lose much much more, so stay tuned, this should be happening over the next month or several months, just depends!
I check this website daily, Brenda lives in our village and I am nervous, is all of this true, it seems unbelievable, she appears so smart and knowledgeable about everything in the business world. Are some of you perhaps stretching the truth just a little bit?
Curious
Who is this unbiased person called "observer"? If you want to be a character reference for her, at least in this type of case, come out of the closet. Knowing Brenda too, this appears to be her style of writing. I know of no one that truly trust this parasite. The court has ruled over and over against her. She has hid money of us victims overseas and refuses to give it back. She has cost this effort hundreds of thousands of dollars and has been caught lying under oath in her own sworn statements with the court. You need only review the records to see this. The comforting thoughts and words you put forth on Brenda's behalf were the same ones said of friends and supporters of Madoff, almost word for word on some of your lines. Might surprise you to know same style of words in support of both Milo and Sorenson. Last, Bundy was given the same kind of support from friends as you give Brenda too. In the end, that did not work out well for many that thought he was trust worth too! Wake up, smell the Coffey, look at the evidence, its clear, she is nice and pleasant when she wants something from you, then if she feels she no longer needs you, or wants to take advantage, she knifes you in the back!! Be careful!! VERY VERY CAREFUL! This woman is a black widow if ever there was!
Brenda has a new site out, its got to be the most absurd, ridicules pile of bull shit I have ever saw in my entire life!!!! She not only defends her own actions in a round about way, she blames everyone else for taking credit for her apparent hard work! This witch has no shame! Its over the top! This woman is insane!!
I have learned so much about Brenda. I was her friend and she told me to post this information about her as "observer". Now I feel bad because I know it was her words and that they are all false and misleading like everything she does. She recently posted a web site with her own name on it. BE CAREFUL, she sends out things that will track you on this site so she plans to harass people later! She scares me now. She laughed when she told me about her new web site and how gullible people are and they will blindly trust her as before. She told me that yes she has taken money and has it hid over seas that belonged to the group of victims because she felt she was owed it and she honestly does not care about all the money that was lost by the victims trying to get her to stop causing so many delays from all the legal action. When she told me that I said to myself I had enough and should come clean with everyone. I feel much better and please forgive me! She is sick and does not even seem like the Brenda I once knew. She needs help people!! Do not judge her too harsh.
as a financial fraud investigator with more than two decades experience, I had the opportunity to meet and talk to Brenda during testimony at a justice committee in Ottawa. She came to the committee with no qualifications, had no answers to any questions posed to her, gave nothing of substance to the committee and basically tried to act "poised" as if she belonged there. That was about all she had to offer, was her attempts to act poised despite having nothing of any substance to offer. It became apparent rather quickly that she was a fraud, and her interest was in preying on victims of the ponzi scheme who had already been preyed upon once. At the committee were victims of various ponzi and other schemes and it was agreed by all in attendance that she gave everyone a very "creepy" feeling. Not a professional comment, but then you will have to meet Brenda yourself. Financial psychopath is my best guess.
If this site is slanderous, Brenda could demand to have it removed, could she not? If there is, in fact, court documentation to prove that she is guilty of contempt of court as claimed, then she can't very well argue that she's being attacked by the disclosure of recent court judgments, etc.
I say let Brenda have this page removed if her character is being assassinated unjustly. If there are judgments against her, as claimed, and I trust that is all public knowledge, then these statements are not baseless and this site should remain.
The only reason I could think of that Brenda would want this place to remain functional, would be if she were contracted to intentionally interfere in situations where criminals are on the hot seat and victims are trying to recover losses. Perhaps that's entirely her plan; it appears to have been the case in this ponzi scheme recovery debacle.
I know of another situation in which she is acting as whistle blower, and yet, it's possible that her real purpose is to intervene, obfuscate and thwart justice under the guise of honest intentions. Pacify and distract the enemy...controlled damage - seems a good strategy.
If you have ever met this woman as I have she made me crawl out of my skin! I have never met anyone like her and in FIVE minutes I knew I could not work with her. I told the group if I had to deal with her I was out!! She is a whack job if ever there was and it appears others now are finally calling a psychopath a psychopath! She is shit nuts and there is no two ways about it. The problem is she has stole money and is making it hard on everyone she has victimized. One last thing, I know for a fact that the recovery effort is real, has real people and Brenda has messed it up good. It only takes one bad apple to mess up a good thing!
I hope anyone that knows Brenda will stay clear of this woman. She has some very serious mental problems. I am not sure anyone can really grasp the level this woman will go to if she feels she can benefit. She would screw over her best friends and never think twice. I should know.
I know for a fact that Brenda is full of crap. She told me personally she did not give a dam about anyone in this IFFL mess. She is after only for herself. She does not believe in God and that is something people that know her know. She believes in all sorts of new age crap and spiral wizard crap and she admitted to me she put money over seas that belong to the victims of the IFFL deal. This is a fact! Court records I looked at confirm that. WHY WONT SHE GIVE IT BACK!! She is s crook, a liar and a cheat and that is all there is to it!! I am no longer her friend!!!!! She looses a lot of friends once they find out what she is like. That one also is a honest true fact!
HOW COULD SHE DO THIS TO ALL OF US!?!?! SHE JUST CANT DO WHAT IS RIGHT. ALL SHE CAN DO IT WRITE UP MORE BS ON THE NET AND ACT LIKE SHE IS A VICTIM!! SHAME ON YOU BRENDA!!! SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!
Reliable sources have confirmed that Brenda has stated that she is not of the "heterosexual persuasion". This is something a long time suspected and finally explains why Brenda hates men so much and was always telling many of them she would rip their testicles off. Brenda's attorneys are owed money, she has a unauthorized audit that she did solely on her own at price water-house. She has stole money in court documents she admits belongs to the group that she has sent over seas. Her lies and deceit are catching up faster and faster!
I knew Brenda for a lot of years. She ripped me off, took advantage of me in many ways. She has a serious bi-polar problem and has admitted to other mental issues. If you are doing or thinking about doing business with her, BE CAREFUL, you have been WARNED!!
an EX-FRIEND
Brenda Mac as she likes to be called has attacked the whistle blowers! She likes to credit grab and steal the hard work of so many others. She has done nothing for the group accept pay herself tens of thousands of dollars and pay her gay friend Anne $50.00 an hour when Anne own web site says she works for $20.00!! What a con job this woman has done. An admitted lesbian, she helped herself and her lover to over a hundred thousand dollars of victims money. She told me she not has a "major project" she is working on and I will go to your private email to tell more on that. She is a crook, a liar and cheat and theif as has been said before and there is no two ways about it!
Brenda is listed as a fraud on a lot of other sites check them out for yourself at

Welll how hard do you think Gary Sorenson is laughing now...does anyone suspect Brenda has been paid by him to drive our recovery off the track??
How about that Thayer Jackson and his 8 million dollar Nigerian money scam he pulled off with his daughter Alyssa MacDonald and his other daughters husband Jim Bowhay, how can you be so stupid and steal that much money from friends and family without ever telling the truth...good thing the guy is a Christian because that makes it okay right? Go to the courts and pull his court history for yourself.
Anyhow what are we going to do about Brenda folks?? I would say in short order this effort will be done if she does not stand up to the plate with the proper info and soon.
Tired of nut cases!!!!!!!!!!!!
I happen to know for a fact Brenda is behind the Observer post. She is trying to do damage control while she spends the money she claims in court papers she put over seas! Claims in court papers it was the victims but refuses to return it. She is a CROOK, liar, cheat and a thief and I will find some time to list her bad qualities later! This woman is one of the most low down dirty rotten snakes you will ever know. She sure can fool people to their faces!!
TO A Villiager - I ASSURE YOU 110% that is IS true. Of Course she is smart and knows about business...do you think someone *stupid* could pull this off??
NO!
This is NO Fairy-Tale!
Why would this woman be emailing my 10 year old daughter asking if she could do "cultivating" work. Claims she knows me, "I know your father she says" No clue who she is. Email came this morning...wtf!?

Wow...I mean WoW! I just typed this womans name into my browser and here she is. I didn't think I was going to find anything except for her own pages full of her self-loving BS.
This woman is a nightmare. I am SO glad someone has had the courage and taken the time to stand up and tell it like it really is.
Have we not SUFFERED ENOUGH from YOU Brenda !??
Have we not lost enough by your hand?
Come clean before it's too late because it's only a matter of time before you are in jail for a very good long time.
