Oh for the love of all that’s good in the world…this is just incredible. Mark Shurtleff has never met a scammer he didn’t love.
I guess it’s not too suprising that after scamming $350 million dollars his family could come up with a mere $2.8 million in bond, that’s chump change for a criminal at his level.
So his attorney is looking forward to Jeremy’s day in court, is he? He calls his business legitimate? It will be interesting to hear what prosecutors and victims call his various enterprises…somehow I doubt legitimate will be among their descriptive terms.
Too bad that auction’s over, I might have been able to pick up a plane on the cheap.

From reporter Andy Jenkins@The Spectrum:
“Eager buyers snapped up nearly 250 lots of merchandise Saturday from the companies owned or operated by St. George businessman Jeremy Johnson, who has been beset by legal woes since federal authorities began investigating the marketing practices of his St. George-based company iWorks.”
“While a number of buyers waited for big-ticket items – property such as classic automobiles, a snow plane and a dune buggy owned by the Internet business – there was no shortage of people ready to bid for boxes containing artificial plants, computer monitors, office calculators, desks, miscellaneous software and other items.”
And a few boxes of L’Oreal Intense Red Copper hair dye, and three Conair infiniti curling irons.

Purchased Redemption said:
Jeremy “Boiler Room” Johnson donated a tiny percentage of what he took in of OTHER people’s money to Haiti relief, and is treated to a “hero’s homecoming” by the local television station. “All hail the Utah motto: Industry!”
The reporter even gets all worked up speculating about exactly “when” Johnson’s elite private helicopter might arrive back, in eager anticipation of their deity’s return.
Will the television station also be providing coverage of future relief efforts for any “people”(*) who may have been financially devastated by Johnson’s “enterprises?”
(*) “People” = Those who don’t know the secret handshake.

@Purchased Redemption,
Gag! Did you hear that reporter’s voice as he said “two weeks”? Such awe and reverence in his tone! “He’s been here TWO WEEKS!”. Hey, jackass, do a story on the people of Médecins Sans Frontières who spend years in the field. And how about the police and fire departments coming to the airfield to bow and scrape and honor the conquering hero upon his return?
Do you suppose any of those police were among the ones who arrested him?

From The Spectrum September 10 2011:
“Johnson, 35, is accused of being the mastermind behind a massive online financial scheme in which he allegedly used the U.S. mail system to ship a variety of products tied to his company iWorks.”
“Johnson has been held in the Davis County Jail without possibility of bail since his arrest in June while preparing to board an international flight in Phoenix.”
“The government alleges iWorks used false information to market its products to customers, including shell corporations designed to mislead bankers who were growing increasingly reluctant to allow the company to use credit and debit card transactions over the Internet after a growing number of customers sought refunds for fees that were charged to their cards without their authorization.”
So he was trying to flee the jurusdiction, actually leaving the country, when he was arrested in June? I don’t understand then why bail was ever granted. The government has EIGHT MILLION pages of documents that are evidence against him. The prosecution said 500,000 custmers contacted their credit card companies for “charge-backs” after Johnson tried to bilk them. He cheated half of a million people and he’s getting out of jail?! That’s outrageous.

Prosecute bullshit corporations is number thirteen….!!!
Shurtleff must just be superstitious! He probably just skipped right over that unlucky sub-paragraph 13. Same reason why they don’t put a Floor 13 in skyscrapers. Or some shit. That crazy coot.
Ok, so, idea: Let’s ship a whole bunch of black cats to Utah and set up a shitload of ladders in Salt Lake City, and maybe, just maybe, Shurtleff will never see the fucking light of day again.

So, Tim Lawson was the marriage broker between two crooks, Shurtleff and Johnson:
“Tim Lawson is one of the most influential state lobbyists you’ve never heard of. That is, unless you’ve met Lawson in person, who, by way of introduction, speaks more about the people he knows than of himself—friendships ranging from Utah Gov. Gary Herbert, CEOs and captains of industry and, of course, his personal friend, Attorney General Mark Shurtleff. “Me and Mark are as close as two guys can be without being gay,” Lawson told City Weekly in 2009. “We’re like brothers.”
“The 45-year-old Orem resident has, since launching his political forays, supported his wife and eight children through entrepreneurial ventures that have ranged from telemarketing to hovercraft construction and, apparently, as a part-time political consultant.”
“Lawson touted his political connections to executives in the Utah call-center industry and advertised himself as having a hook-up for troubled companies who wanted to reach out to the top attorney of the state. Some companies appear to have reached out to Lawson, having him intercede on their behalf with the attorney general. In some instances, making introductions has profited Lawson and made new campaign supporters for Shurtleff.”
“According to e-mails obtained through a records request, Lawson also arranged a Jan. 16, 2008, meeting between Shurtleff and a St. George Internet marketing company known as IWorks so that Shurtleff could accept a campaign donation. In 2008, the company would give Shurtleff $50,000 in campaign donations.”
This is from Salt Lake City News February 2, 2011.
***************************************************************************
So, Lawson, I guess hoping to bolster that “without being gay” claim, has about a dozen young women “friends” posing seductively semi-nude on his Facebook page. Just the typical friends a highly religious, married, father of eight, man would have…nothing to see here.

Mea Culpa…I disovered this site in July, I didn’t realize SD had thoroughly covered this story ten months ago.
It was an eye-opener to me in some respects. I always wondered how employees could actually work in those boiler rooms. Now I know:
(Salt Lake City News April 8 2009)
“Dealmakers might close a sale and on their breaks sling cocaine, OxyContin as well as marijuana brownies to their co-workers. Employees might shoot heroin up in the bathrooms or drop ecstasy while on the phone with customers.”
“On payday, the sales floor would make a liquorstore run before lunchtime and by the end of the day, might be taking down customer’s credit-card information drunk, high or both.”
Boy, that makes casual Fridays seem like a big bunch of nothing and you can’t compare the day when the nice guy in sales brought Krispy Kreme’s to shooting up in the bathroom.
I guess you’d have to be fucked up on something before you could happily bilk a little old lady out of her life savings.

I was here before said:
I didn’t know about Utah boiler rooms and all this crap before (I don’t even live in the USA) but I want to share with you just a couple of things:
1) In the first picture, the “Red menace” looks really scary. I guess that pic shows exactly what he is, a psychopath.
2)Once I got a job “interview” in a place which turned to be one of these boiler rooms. Only, this company was selling financial products that personally I would consider illegal. They were on the edge of being illegal for sure.
I had a 3-day training course and then -if I considered myself ready- I would start selling.
The things I saw there are pretty close to what Barbara described above. However, many of the employees, especially the women were also victims. They manipulated you to make you believe you were doing something good for someone else and for you.
The second day I decided not to go back there ever again. It was like a cult disguised as a business.
3)A few months ago, I got an email promoting The Web is dead, by Ryan Deiss. I didn’t know who this guy was until now, when I saw that ad you posted here, Salty. I watched the video included in the email. It was scary… Again someone trying to manipulate me by scaring me.
I never subscribed for Ryan Deiss’ list. It was some other marketer who sent me that. I immediately unsubscribed.
Sad part is, recently I saw that someone I know and somehow appreciate has fallen in the net of this scammer.
Thanks for all your posts, SD.

From The Spectrum September 27 2011:
PREMATURE AUCTION?
“Until that happens, however, he is innocent under our nation’s legal system. It seems as though the court went too far in allowing things of value to be sold when the man has yet to be convicted of anything.
Some people view Jeremy Johnson as being a bad guy, a man who bilked many people out of significant amounts of money. If he is convicted, his property should be sold to pay off debts, and he should serve time behind bars. But until a person is convicted, the court shouldn’t be able to sell off property. To do so prior to a conviction is akin to punishing a person for a crime he or she hasn’t been proven to have committed.
If we truly hold to the concept of “innocent until proven guilty,” then this sale shouldn’t have happened until after Johnson stood trial.”
**************************************************************************
Wow! The article described him as a “philanthropist and search and rescue pilot”. It’s clear that some staff at The Spectrum are still under Bozo’s magic spell. “Some people” view Johnson as a bad guy, yeah, you mean “some” as in a million?

He’s innocent under our criminal system until proven guilty … but that’s it. That’s the most ignorantly used cliche in American English.
Most people who get pressed by the FTC never even get to court … such is their power. It’s really hard to get them to act … but if they do roll on you … you’re fucked. Your business … which is what the FTC attacks … doesn’t have ANY human rights … it’s just a fake thing easily replaced by other fake things.
It’s what should have happened to James Arthur Ray. FTC asset freeze … then Ms. Sheila Sullivan Polk. That would have produced something much closer to justice. No hiring fancy lawyers with blood money … it turns the whole system into a farce.

It’s amazing that the state of Utah could cold-bloodedly decide to become the scammer capital of the world with virtually no opposition.
“These schemes have proliferated in Utah to the
point that the state holds a commanding lead over all
other states in per capita sponsorship of multi-level
marketing (MLM) programs, with pay plans that
primarily reward recruitment of participants as customers
and in which relatively few products are legitimately sold
on a retail basis to end users. In fact, Utah County has the
highest concentration of MLM schemes, with no county
in the country holding even a close second place.
The vast majority of victims of Utah-based
schemes are not in Utah, but in other states and countries.
Approximately 85% of revenues of Nu Skin, for example,
which is one of the nation’s largest MLM’s based in
Utah, are from Asia.”
“We have observed addictive behavior among
some compulsive MLM participants akin to gambling
addiction. Compulsive MLM “addicts” have been called
“MLM junkies.” Indeed, we see MLM as problematic as
gambling – even worse, in some respects. Legalized
gambling in the U.S. is regulated, but MLM typically is
not – or not enforced. Also, persons who gamble usually
know they are gambling, while promoters of MLM
programs are allowed to promote them as offering
“permanent income” or “residual income that will free
you from having to work – ever again.” “Time freedom”
is the mantra at MLM opportunity meetings.”
(Robert Fitzpatrick,PYRAMID SCHEME ALERT)
***************************************************************************
So those fine Mormom citizens of Utah are just fine with criminals using their state as a base to swindle Asians and poor Southerners in this country? Or is it that these fine Mormoms are the scammers? Mark Shurtleff has made Utah as safe for scammers as Nigeria is for another type of internet swindlers.
I liked that observation that gamblers know they are gambling, (and as one wise person stated here, casinos post the odds), but MLM addicts are on their own. Waiting for that one big score that will keep them from ever having to work again..good luck with that.

@Dave,
Shurtleff is a pig who represents only himself and his crooked friends. He doesn’t “look out for the people of Utah”, he has no respect for the rule of law…in Utah or anywhere else.
June 19 2011
“Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff “re-tweeted” a message on Friday urging people to enter a raffle. He says, through a spokesman, that the raffle doesn’t violate Utah’s ban on gambling — even though a police department canceled a similar raffle last year after figuring it would break the law.”
“Shurtleff, the state’s top law enforcement officer, wrote on his Twitter account on Friday, “RT [re-tweet] the crap out of this: help a Cop and you could win a trip to Hawaii!” He then gave a link to another message promoting a raffle to benefit the Utah Meth Cops Project.”
Yeah, that’s just how you want the state’s Attorney General to speak, with great dignity: “re-tweet the crap out of this” Never mind that this raffle clearly broke the state’s strict anti-gambling laws that the PEOPLE wanted and voted for.
And then there was this bright move from Shurtleff:
“In 2009, he inadvertently confirmed that he would run for the U.S. Senate in a series of what he thought were private Twitter postings that instead went public. He had posted them in the middle of the night while in Israel on a trade mission.”
“After that foul-up, Shurtleff posted, “Thinking of ‘texting while drowsy’ law after private 1AM tweet went public. Formal announcement on 5/20 about senate race and tweeting plans.”
Real funny, asshole, you can’t even figure out the way Twitter works, this bodes well for his job performance. And he blames it on being “drowsy”. Because it can’t be that he’s too stupid to use a twitter acount…perish the thought.

How is it “looking out for the people of Utah” to enable Jeremy Johnson to put up phony ads with pictures of President Obama implying that he could get grant money from the President’s stimulus package and then defrauding FIVE MILLION people?
No one suggested he act as an advocate for poor Southerners or for Asians but he has a responsibility to uphold the law in Utah which he has failed at dismally.

Johnson filed a motion Pro Se Friday, October 7, 2011, requesting the Court to order the Federal Trade Commission to pay attorney fees related to representations of the corporations in the case since corporations are required by law in Nevada to have legal counsel.
I thought that corporations having to obtain legal counsel, is due to their nature as a separate entity under the law, and self-representation is not possible, since legally a director is a “governing/controlling” entity, and not the entity.
I’m not sure how that equates to, “you have to pay my legal bills”.
