I think its just the fact that it had so much publicity and now that aubrey fellow turns out to be a false prophet, he's embarrassed, as are a lot of people....aubrey must be good at his game to get an entire city to believe him...and yes, kamloops deserves better!

I feel there needs to be a public burning at the stake, perhaps in Gaglardi square?

I agree, but I have a feeling we haven't seen the last chapter in this book.

I heard it was one of the people involved with him early on. Wouldn't mention a name. Isn't there some way to find out? Public record and all??

Just an update. So far there are four people who bought shares from Mr. Aubrey, but those shares never materialized. Sounds like Mr. Aubrey is a bit of a con artist.

In my experience there seems to be a high concentration of con artists in BC.

Why do you say that? Has someone ripped you off?

Nope, but I noticed that a lot of jobs advertised are shady and a lot of get rich quick schemes being promoted in Vancouver. Its the affluence of the city, everyone wants to be as well off as everyone else or as everyone else is perceived to be. Or maybe I've just grown more cynical with age.

I also heard he is under investigation for fraud and that he pulled a similar scam in Williams lake, bilking a bunch of people there out of $100K. How does this guy survive here? Why don't the police do something?

You know Tasha, this is a public forum and you are getting pretty close to possibly opening yourself up to a libel suit with all this bashing. Just saying, maybe you should choose your words a little more carefully.

I have heard the similar things about Thomas Aubrey and that he used the same methods on a previous "job" where the investors money disappeared bringing the project to a screeching halt. Apparently one of his partners raised all the money and Aubrey spent it all, mostly on himself. He was in a habit of blaming everyone else for the problems he created and he would manipulate situations and people to fit the moment.

I have heard rumblings that this project is back at square one and is being financed by outside investors. From what i have heard, it is still expected to be built, timeline unknown. Aubrey is out of the picture. Now, this is just what i have heard, but its from a reliable person whom i trust. We will have to wait and see.
