Greetings Everyone,
I have been receiving many messages inquiring as to whether or not I have any knowledge regarding the current state of affairs with GMT. Also, I have been asked my opinion with concerning the new program that was presented to the members.
My opinion about the new program is this - I deleted it as quickly as it appeared in my mailbox.
Today the following message was forwarded to me. I am sharing it with you so that you may gain some insight and perhaps some relief if you are among the many thousands who lost money in what is being called the largest worldwide scam in our history. See the contact information for attorney Lawrence Tackett.

Hello Everyone,
This letter is written with regret and humility. I do ask everyone's forgiveness for lending my influence to the largest worldwide scam in our history.
This is the scenario:
Bruce is divinely led to begin the company and the plan came from God. At just the right moment God directed him to begin and my son, Doyle Arender, at just the right time....had money to finance the company. (Later we find out that he planned it all in prison in Arizona, waiting for the time when he would be released to lead a new and different life, and plan for the time when someone could be duped into financing him.)
I am quite certain that the story (which will most likely be aired on Dateline and 60 Minoutes) will far exceed any scam issues ever addressed. We knew something was awry when my daughter in law, Tina, the CFO of the company left because of not being able to get bank records from Melissa (Bruces's sister). I don't blame her. If I were Melissa I would not turn anything over to the CFO either. Especially when she and her family were confiscating millions upon millions of dollars to be sent offshore before they "filed" bankruptcy. Of course the truth is, they didn't file bankruptcy. They withdrew it.
One of the shames of this entire thing is it was done in the name of the Lord. It used the Prayer of Jabez as an example of a simple man who made a difference. Some people have used this prayer and pray it every day thinking some magic is going to happen so they can be rich. However, we did not think this was his intent. But churches, ministers, thousands upon thousands of people were deceived. Our congregation (almost in entirety) joined... groups within the congregation joined.
So we were "ripped off" so to speak.
Oh yes, I made some money. Bruce told me that since I was one of the first, and Doyle and he were the original owners, that half the company was under me..but the figures did not prove that. BUT WHAT I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MOST OF ALL, IS ALL THE PEOPLE WHO REALLY DID NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO INVEST....INVESTED IN A TERRIBLY DECEITFUL SCAM.
Plenty of the "high rollers" made the top charts...people who had built in downlines and people who could afford to pay the way in for people who worked for them....
Then there were those with very shady pasts......such as Jim Fobear and John VanDuerzen. I was informed that Jim Fobear had some problems, but they were all straightened out...and he did not have a foot in the company anyway. John VanDuerzen has been prosecuted in Canada for former endeavors.
When Doyle left the company, others were informed no to communicate with him. Bruce said that was a lie....but it was not a lie, and some of Doyle's friends continued their contact with him. Too many reported the same message.. "Do not communicate with him." Bruce and company were getting ready for the big heist. Now Melissa had another game going...in that she refused to share the mail with the CFO...specifically the bank statements. She did her part to try to squeeze out anyone who would interfere with the scheme. Her "illness" was at the appropriate time to deceive and divide peole's thinking so they would not be hard on them when the supposed "bankrupcy" occurred.
(AGAIN,THERE IS NO BANKRUPTCY).
Now the leaders and owners are facing prison. The FBI already has enough information and they are going after them. The lawyer who is working with them, is also doing a Class Action Lawsuit for our people. In order to hope to retrieve money invested and compensation, you need to notify everyone in your downline, and get the form to fill out. It will cost you nothing. You will send you ID numbers to him by fax.
Another thing, this new "reputable" company which has been in existence for ten years and just "happened" to come along at the right time...didn't "just happen" to come along at the right time. The history is bad, and it does this for alot of companies selling the same products under different labels. Another thing: Do you want to be a part of a company who has as some of it's leaders the very ones who will be facing prison time along with the Bice's?
The lawyer is Lawrence Tackett and his telephone number is (281) 419-2626. His e-mail is LawTackett@aol.com . He will send you a form to fill out and you will need to fax it in with your ID numbers.
All the time we were not receiving pacesetter bonuses and we made less and less money, even though we worked hard, the Bice's were living "high on the hog" spending about fifty million dollars and more than that sent offshore.
I am so sorry that I fell for it, and that I influenced others.
At first, I thought, "Well they started off right, and just got off track"...but it was planned all the way back to when Bruce was in prison. What a shame.
Sincerly,
Carolyn Jarrell
