Breaking News In TNT Chat
Rumors are flying about Sterling in Atlanta being raided by FBI. I have no idea if there's any truth to this, as a member said a friend from Atlanta called her & said it was on the news. Apparently they aren't answering their phone, but website is still up.
Federal agents swarmed an office building and a million-dollar home in Brookhaven on Wednesday morning, but what brought them to the locations was unclear.
“All I can do is confirm that the FBI executed a search warrant at” 2751 Buford Highway, agency spokesman Stephen Emmett told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. That address is associated with the Druid Pointe office building, which houses a number of businesses.
At the same time as that operation, FBI agents and Brookhaven police were also executing warrants at a home on the 4500 block of East Brookhaven Drive. Throughout the morning and into the afternoon, agents with “evidence recovery team” scrawled across their T-shirts filed in and out of the home, which Fulton County property records valued at $1.6 million.

The connection between the residence and the office building was unclear.
Like Emmett, Brookhaven Police Department spokesman Carlos Nino offered little insight into the operation.
“We are assisting the FBI with presence during a search warrant,” he said.

Pam cracks me up...a bomb just went up in her face and she says people should mind their own business??? It could be an accounting issue???? Really Pam??? An accounting issue that caused the FBI to raid the guys home and business. A business where numerous people have thousands of dollars invested in reserves?!?!?!
Yep...no problem here guys. Seems completely logical to just let it all go...

According to WTYM,
"The FBI will not say at this point what exactly agents are looking for, but a spokesperson says they are serving several search warrants in connection with this case."

DEKALB COUNTY, GA (CBS46) -
FBI agents conducted a search of the offices of a local business on Buford Highway in DeKalb County on Wednesday.
Agents also searched the offices of the CEO of the company.
Agents are collecting evidence from the business, which specializes in Iraqi currency and the processing of private financial transactions between the U.S. And Iraq.
The business is called Sterling Currency Group. The business specializes in check payments and wire transfers with Iraq.
FBI agents gathered evidence, including documents and computers as part of a sweeping search warrant.
Authorities also searched the Brookhaven home of Sterling's CEO, Frank Bell. Sterling operates out of the 4th floor of a commercial office complex in DeKalb County.
A woman who works at a different company on the same floor tells CBS46 that Sterling's doors were always locked and its employees seemed very secretive. In fact, there is no sign to even indicate Sterling is headquartered in the building.
The FBI will not say at this point what exactly agents are looking for, but a spokesperson says they are serving several search warrants in connection with this case.
Stay with CBS46 News as we will continue to update this story as new information becomes available.

Re: Breaking News In TNT Chat
I have seen several posts from people on twitter and other sites insisting it isn't Sterling Currency Group. All they have to do is watch the NEWS VIDEO! They specifically say the name of the company AND FRANK BELL !

I guess Tony is putting his other twitter accounts to good use to do as much damage control as possible. The video very clearly states that it is Sterling...how can you argue it?

Wow. I was just thinking, do you think Tony cut a deal with the DA, turning over his info about Sterling in exchange for a reduced sentence?
Or, maybe they discovered his kickbacks from Sterling in the review of his assets. This ripoff just keeps getting better and better.

Possibly, but what is the scoop with the dinar dealer in Puerto Rico being Raided also? Strange that they were both raided at the same time. Unless, they were connected some how.

If the charges posted on another thread are accurate, it would seem to have more to do with a long standing fight Ty has had with another dealer ... they've been tossing lawsuits back and forth for a while.

Re: Breaking News In TNT Chat
I don't think the FBI gets involved in civil lawsuits. This is a criminal matter for sure.

You mean the FBI won't raid a persons home and business for a simple accounting error like Pam said?!?!?!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but because this crosses state and international borders, that is why the FBI gets involved. Also judging by the looks of dudes house...the amount of money that he is making off of this probably makes it a federal matter as well.

Why are the US Marshalls involved? I don't know what exactly they do/their role in this.

Could it be because it involves foreign currency? Or Iraq specifically? It'll be interesting to see what comes of this as it unfolds.

Agreed, however it appears that the charges are related ... so it could be the offenses were uncovered as a result of the suits. Or another party involved filed a complaint with the FBI.

Re: Breaking News In TNT Chat
Tony, Pam and DC better watch out. It could be that Phony Tony made a deal for lesser jail time. He would give his own family up I'm sure. He keeps lying to people about the RV every week and as Pam said yesterday, All donations go to Tony. He is the one who controls it---Something Smell here. And yes, since this has come out about Tony (which nothing is said on his 3 day a week phony program) you haven't heard anything about DC (Winston). He is probably packing to get away. And Pam well------see what happens. Who is going to BS us when Tony goes to the BIG HOUSE? PAM?

“We are risking serious jail time as promoters of a Ponzi scheme…” James Shaw wrote Rhame in a 2010 email. Shaw also said in the email that his wife had been “very nervous” and “crying” because “she knows we are running an illegal operation.”
