The dinar scam continues, with Blaino

IIRC I signed up for the forum Blaino had about 5 years ago and, though I was nearly immediately banned for saying things like "Iraq has 70 trillion dinar in their money supply" and "the dinar was not artificially devalued in 2003, and actually hadn't been worth squat since the late 80s or so", I continue to get his moronic weekly email newsletters where he mostly talks about magic weight loss pills, magic skin creams, how you need to pay his buddy a few grand to set up a dozen different trusts for all your post RV assets, or whatever other BS someone will give him a few cents to advertise.

But I also got all the dinar scam related info.  Or at least some of it.  I'm not gonna waste my time digging through the 3,000 emails I've gotten from him, so don't take this as gospel, but if I recall correctly the gist of it was this:

Asked people to sign up for his early cash in type program.  I got people willing to pay 2 bucks per dinar in advance of the 3 dollar RV type stuff, which we've probably all seen before (where is Relix these days, btw?).  People that signed up for this almost certainly got added to a separate mailing list where they got updated on the "progress", independent and hidden from his normal email list.
Pumped this for a while then sent out an email (to the "regular" list) saying something like "well it didn't pan out, we returned the dinar, don't send any more."
Would occasionally mention this "secret program" in the "regular" email list (Fulton Bonanza was one of the names for the program (iirc Sam outed him as being from Fulton MO), there was another name for a different "program" but I can't remember it and don't really care).  This is probably to entice any new suckers that might feeling like they're being left out in the cold.

The bottom line is that he pumped this hard and fast for a while and then totally backed off.  My interpretation: pumped it hard until he knew he had 90% of the chumps involved, and then laid off so as not to attract undue attention from people that actually have brains, or law enforcement.

And by hard and fast and then backing off: between 8/21/13 and 9/25/13 (barely over 1 month) I got 11 emails from him about it.  During all of 2015, I got three.

Here's an example of the things he was saying in 2013:

YESTERDAY:

PLANETEERS:::::  I AM PUSHING BACK THE DEADLINE FOR REGISTRATION AND COMPLETION OF NDA FORMS UNTILL FRIDAY NIGHT AT 8PM EASTERN TIME IN RESPONSE TO THE EVENTS IN OUR NATION AND A CORRESPONDING DELAY ON ANY KIND OF TRANSACTION LIKE THE ONE WE ARE ENGAGED IN WITH THE FULTON BONANZA. THERE IS AN INTERNATIONAL COMPONENT INVOLVED IN OUR 'DEAL' AND ALL THE AGENCIES ARE SHIFTING THEIR FOCUS TO OTHER PROBLEMS FOR A DAY OR TWO. ADDITIONALLY: ALL NDA FORMS MUST BE UPLOADED.... YOURS AND MINE. E-MAILING THE FORMS TO US IS NOT A CLEAN LINE OF CONTROL WHICH HAS TO BE A PART OF THE SYSTEM WE HAVE IN PLACE. THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF PLACES TO GET YOUR FORMS SCANNED AND SAVED IN A VARIETY OF FORMATS INCLUDING MSWORD THEN DOWNLOAD THE EMAILED OR SCANNED FORMS TO YOUR COMPUTER IN A FILE THAT YOU CREATE FOR THAT PURPOSE. BROWSE TO THAT FILE TO UPLOAD PAGE 1, 2 AND 3. I HAVE NO FLEXIBILITY ON THIS, AND ULTIMATLEY UPLOADING THE FILE TO AN E-MAIL IS REALLY NO DIFFERENT THAT UPLOADING TO YOUR BONANZAACCOUNT.

I AM IN RECIEPT OF WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS STARTLING AND AMAZING INFORMATION RELATED TO: RV, DIFFERENT AGENCIES OF THE GOVERNMENT AND MAJOR PLAYERS IN THE WORLD FINANCIAL STAGE.... MANY OF WHICH, IF TRUE, WILL EFFECTIVELY CHANGE IN DRAMATIC WAYS THE USUAL AND CUSTOMARY METHODS AND ACCEPTED WAYS "THINGS GET DONE"... THERE WILL BE MORE FROM US ONCE THERE IS A LITTLE MORE CONFIRMATION ON THESES MATTERS... AS YOU KNOW, WE ARE FAR MORE CONCERNED WITH ACCURACY THAN HYPE OR BEING THE FIRST LIAR SCREAMING FROM THE CORNER.... THERE ARE THOSE FAR BETTER EQUIPPED FOR THAT PARTICULAR MADNESS...

Blaino: TO BE CLEAR, THESE THINGS ARE ALL VERY POSITIVE IN MOST RESPECTS... NOT SCAREY, BUT ... WELL, A LITTLE "OUT THERE" FOR THE MAINSTREAM.... SO EXPECT MORE FROM US ONCE SOME OF THE SMOKE CLEARS A LIL MORE... SO WE CAN MAKE A RESPONSIBLE MEASURED RESPONSE RATHER THAN GIDDY IRRESPONSIBLE REACTION
Blaino: WHILE WE CONTINUE TO TOIL AWAY ON THE FB... THE RV COULD BE COMING CLOSER AND CLOSER.... MEBBY IT'S A RACE ... THE GOOD PART IS THIS: EITHER WAY, WE WIN!!!! SO, BY WAY OF ANNOUNCEMENT: WE ARE NOW INDEED (TODAYS MADNESS IN BOSTON NOT WITHSTANDING) INSIDE OF A "PROBABLE" THIRTY (30) DAY WINDOW TO COMPLETE THE FB!!!!
Blaino: SO, I HEREBY "CALL OUT" THE IMF, THE BIS, THE WB AND ALL THE OTHER ENTITIES INVOLVED IN THIS.... AND THROW DOWN THE GAUNTLET OF CHALLENGE....
BEAT US TO THE FINISH LINE!!! WE TRIPLE DOG, DOUBLE-DOWN, FLAT OUT DARE YOU!

WE SEEM TO (POSSIBLY) HAVE SOME KIND OF MOVEMENT. IT MAY NOT BE THE NEWS WE WANT! I AM DOING ALL I CAN TO GET DIFFERENT INFORMATION TO ALIGN OR RENDER A STRAIGHT ANSWER. 

THERE IS A (POSSIBLY) RELATED SECURITY PROBLEM. WE ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER THIS IS DISINFORMATION, A FORCE PLAY, TOO MUCH TIME WITH NO MOVEMENT OR WHAT EXACTLY.... WHAT A MASSIVE SWIRL OF DISCONNECTED INFORMATION IS FLYING AROUND OUT THERE.... 

I DON'T SEE THIS AS 'BAD' NEWS OR 'GOOD' NEWS.... JUST UNCERTAIN ABOUT THE RAMIFICATIONS AT THIS TIME.

Blaino: OK.... SO MONEYBOX SAYS "NO CHANGE" WHICH IS GREAT! BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL ON TRACK THEN FOR THURSDAY PM....WEL-COME  TO THURSDAY PM! RATES.... (THE REAL ONES) ARE HOLDING AT THE 3.44+ NUMBER AND THE .478 ON THE VND
WHICH MAY ACTUALLY COME IN AS HIGH AS .58 ..... SHOCKS ME TOO! I ALWAYS HOPED FOR $.04 TO $.06 OR SO.... SO... THE $11 BS ON THE IQD AND THE $2 BS ON THE VND WAS NOPIUM, METHINKS.... ALTHOUGH, IF THEY WILL PAY IT, I WILL SPEND IT!
BUT I AM NOT HEARING IT ANYWHERE ANYMORE... AND NEVER BELIEVED IT WHEN I DID. TEXT, EMAIL CC AND CHATROOM...... IN ROUGHLY THAT ORDER TO ANNOUNCE THERE WILL BE AN ANNOUNCEMENT.... IT WILL BE A CC AND DETAILS WILL FOLLOW PERTAINING TO DO'S, DON'TS, ETC. BONANZA MEMBERS......... EXPECT A PRIVATE COMMUNICATION. NO MORE ON THAT NOR QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS... WE ARE PREPARED TO MAKE SERIOUS ANNOUNCEMENTS LATER OR ASAP. PLANETEERS WILL HAVE FIRST ACCESS TO THAT CC.... IT MAY FILL FAST AS THE WORD SPREADS! OUR STRICT MAINTAINENCE OF OUR INTEGRITY AND OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES HAS PAID OFF IN A BIG WAY, HOWEVER.... AS BRIGHT AS PEOPLE SAY "I" SHINE...... KNOW THIS! I AM A 'MOON' REFLECTING THE BRILLIANCE OF "YOUR" LIGHT.... YOU ARE THE SHINNING SUN..... NOT ME! AS AN OLD FRIEND ONCE TOLD ME..... 'NUFF SAID! (AND FOR NOW, THAT IS TRUE!) LATER! AND  THANKZ  FOR ALWAYS BEING THERE! HONORED TO BE OF SERVICE!

Anyway, the punchline is this:

http://dinarvets.com/forums/index.php?/topic/216532-trying-to-get-dinars-back/

Hey, I could use some advice from the DV community. I am helping a friend probate an estate, and the deceased individual apparently mailed off several million dinar to some kind of program that promised a higher return. It was run by some dude named Blaino. My friend has sent certified letters, Court documents, death certificates and the deceased's account number trying to get Blaino to send them back so that they can be sold as fiduciary assets and then distributed ( in dollars) to the estate beneficiaries. So far ....nothing. No response whatsoever. Was this a scam.? What about suing this character? Any help would be appreciated. 

Oh, just for the DV members who may have sent their currency to this guy, I did get a response from him yesterday. He said the currency was in a "secret vault" in another State, that only he and his attorney-in-fact were allowed to access. And that to get my friend's estate currency he would have to charge travel expenses of several hundred miles, overnight lodging, and "other fees". If the Planet Dinar thing isn't a SCAM, I don't know what is. I hope none of the rest of you got sucked into this fool's ploy. God bless.

Now it all makes sense, doesn't it?

And of course a bunch of stellar DV participants came out of the woodwork to say this guy was an idiot.  Nevermind that some DV members are just as big of idiots for doing the same thing with Montana (operation OGIT, anyone?), and that they're probably not Mensa members considering they still think that, in 2016, the dinar still may make them rich.

You can read about a little exchange I had with Blaino here.  http://iraqcurrencywatch.com/blainos-diatribe/

"He asked me to be Shabibi for an “pretend interview” which apparently many people thought was the real thing… so controversy developed around me from almost the beginning."

By pretend did he mean fraudulent ? All credibility lost as far as I am concerned.

The FBI has been informed. Stay tuned they will pick him up  soon :okjh:
