UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA Tampa Division __________________________________________________ ____ ) FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION, )) Plaintiff, )) v. ) Civil No. ) PAUL K. BOIVIN, also known as ) PAUL BOWEN, PAUL BOEVIEN, ) PAUL BOWVIEN and PAUL BROWN; ) individually and doing business as ) DESTINY 1999, ) DESTINY 2000 and ) DESTINY 2001 )) Defendant. ) __________________________________________________ ____) COMPLAINT FOR INJUNCTIVE AND OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF Plaintiff, the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC" or "Commission"), for its Complaint alleges as follows: 1. The Commission brings this action under Section 13(b) of the Federal Trade Commission Act ("FTC Act"), 15 U.S.C. § 53(b), to obtain permanent injunctive relief against the defendant to prevent him from engaging in deceptive acts or practices in violation of Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a), and to obtain other equitable relief, including rescission, restitution, and disgorgement, as is necessary in order to redress injury to consumers and the public interest resulting from the defendant's violations of the FTC Act. 2 JURISDICTION AND VENUE 2. Subject matter jurisdiction is conferred upon this Court by 15 U.S.C. § 53(b) and 28 U.S.C. §§1331, 1337(a), and 1345. 3. Venue in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida is proper under 15 U.S.C. § 53(b) and 28 U.S.C. §§ 1391(b) and (c). PLAINTIFF 4. Plaintiff, the Federal Trade Commission, is an independent agency of the United States Government created by statute. 15 U.S.C. §§ 41 et seq. The Commission enforces Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a), which prohibits deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce. The Commission is authorized to initiate federal district court proceedings, by its own attorneys, to enjoin violations of the FTC Act and to secure such other equitable relief as may be appropriate in each case, including redress and disgorgement. 15 U.S.C. § 53(b). DEFENDANT 5. Defendant Paul K. Boivin, an individual also known as Paul Bowen, Paul Boevien, Paul Bowvien, and Paul Brown, also does business as Destiny 1999, Destiny 2000, and Destiny 2001. Defendant Boivin conducts business from his residence located at 1105 Amble Lane, Clearwater, Florida. At all times material to this complaint, acting alone or in concert with others, defendant Boivin has formulated, directed, controlled, or participated in the acts or practices set forth in this complaint. Defendant Boivin resides and transacts or has transacted business in the Middle District of Florida. 3 COMMERCE 6. At all times relevant to this complaint, the defendant has maintained a substantial course of trade in or affecting commerce, as "commerce" is defined in Section 4 of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 44. DEFENDANT'S BUSINESS PRACTICES 7. Since at least September 2000, the defendant has promoted a "get rich quick" scheme through the use of unsolicited commercial email ("UCE" or "spam") sent in bulk to numerous consumers throughout the country, and through the placement of advertisements in Internet newsgroups. The content and form of both the defendant's email messages and Internet ads are virtually identical. 8. The scheme promoted by the defendant instructs a new recruit to mail a five dollar bill to four or five participants whose names and addresses appear in a numbered list in the message. Upon receipt of the cash payment, the participants email to the new recruit one of four or five different "reports" on how to engage in the scheme, i.e., how to send bulk spam and advertise for "free" on the Internet. In the email message or Internet ad, the new recruit who wants to participate in the scheme is instructed to enter his or her own name and address into position one on the list of participants, move every other participant's name one entry level down on the list, and remove the participant that is in the last position on the list. After this revision is complete, and the new recruit receives each of the four or five reports from the other participants, he or she is instructed 4 to forward the revised message to thousands of new names, using his or her own bulk spam or Internet ads. 9. In his UCE and Internet ads touting this scheme, the defendant has represented, expressly or by implication, that participants will receive substantial income by participating in the program, including, but not limited to, the following representations: A. "You can earn $46,000 or more in the next 90 days sending e-mail. Seem impossible? Read on for details (no, there is no "catch")." B. "If you would like to make $46,000 in less than 90 days, please read the following program. . . THEN READ IT AGAIN!!!" C. "This method of raising capital REALLY WORKS 100% EVERY TIME. I am sure that you could use up to $46,000 or more in the next 90 days." 10. In reality, the vast majority of participants in the program achieve little or no financial success, or make very modest earnings. 11. The defendant promotes what is commonly known as a "chain letter" or pyramid scheme that necessarily enriches only a few initial participants at the expense of the majority of other participants. In a chain letter, each participant pays money to other participants preceding them in the chain, in exchange for the right to recruit new participants. Participants then receive benefits for each individual they recruit or who appears below them in the chain. Earnings in a chain letter scheme are derived primarily from recruiting other participants into the program, not from the bona fide sale of products or services to retail customers. 5 12. The structure of a chain letter places severe limitations upon the success of its participants. Participants can only make money if they recruit a substantial number of newer participants in levels below them. Eventually, chain letter schemes break down due to exhaustion of the pool of possible recruits. Those at the bottom of the chain, the majority of participants, lose money because there is no one left to recruit into positions below them in the chain. 13. In his UCE and Internet ads, the defendant also has represented, expressly or by implication, that the program is legal. For example, the defendant's message includes the following representations: A. "THIS IS A LEGITIMATE, LEGAL, MONEY MAKING OPPORTUNITY." B. "Due to the popularity of this letter on the Internet, a major nightly news program recently devoted an entire show to the investigation of the program described below. . . Their findings proved once and for all that there are absolutely no laws prohibiting the participation in this program." C. "I checked with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161 24-hrs.) and confirmed that [this program] is indeed legal! After determining that the program was LEGAL and not a CHAIN LETTER, I decided, "WHY NOT!"" 14. In fact, this program is a chain letter scheme that is illegal under a variety of federal statutes, including the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45, the Mail Fraud Statute, 18 U.S.C. § 1341, and the Lottery Statutes, 18 U.S.C. §§ 1301-02. 6 15. The defendant has continued to promote this program through spam and Internet ads even after receiving a warning letter from the FTC in or around September 2000, explicitly advising the defendant that the program was, in fact, illegal. 16. Through the sending of bulk spam and the posting of Internet advertisements, the defendant has solicited consumers nationwide, including consumers who reside in this district. VIOLATIONS OF THE FTC ACT 17. Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a), prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce. COUNT ONE 18. In numerous instances, the defendant represents, expressly or by implication, that consumers who participate in the chain letter program are likely to receive substantial income. 19. In truth and in fact, in numerous instances, consumers who participate in the chain letter program are not likely to receive substantial income. 20. Therefore, the representation set forth in paragraph 18 is false and misleading and constitutes a deceptive act or practice in violation of Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a). COUNT TWO 21. As alleged in paragraphs 7 through 12, the program promoted by the defendant is characterized by the payment of money by a new recruit to other participants 7 in the program, in return for which the recruit obtains the right to receive income for recruiting others into the program. 22. This type of scheme, often referred to as a chain letter, is a deceptive act or practice in violation of Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a). COUNT THREE 23. In numerous instances, the defendant represents, expressly or by implication, that the program is legal. 24. In truth and in fact, the program is not legal. 25. Therefore, the representation set forth in paragraph 23 is false and misleading and constitutes a deceptive act or practice in violation of Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a). COUNT FOUR 26. The defendant provides participants in the program with copies of the chain letter to be used in recruiting new participants. As described in Counts One, Two and Three above, that chain letter contains false and misleading representations. 27. By providing participants with the chain letter, the defendant has provided the means and instrumentalities for the commission of deceptive acts and practices. 28. Therefore, the defendant's practices, as described in paragraph 26, constitute deceptive acts and practices in violation of Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a). 8 CONSUMER INJURY 29. Defendant's violations of Section 5 of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a), as set forth above, have caused and continue to cause substantial injury to consumers. Absent injunctive relief by this Court, the defendant is likely to continue to injure consumers and harm the public interest. THIS COURT'S POWER TO GRANT RELIEF 30. Section 13(b) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 53(b), empowers this Court to grant injunctive and other ancillary relief, including consumer redress, disgorgement and restitution, to prevent and remedy any violations of any provision of law enforced by the Federal Trade Commission. PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, plaintiff, the Federal Trade Commission, requests that this Court, as authorized by Section 13(b) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 53(b), and pursuant to its own equitable powers: 1. Permanently enjoin the defendant from violating Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a), as alleged in this complaint; 2. Award other equitable relief, including rescission of contracts, the refund of monies paid, and the disgorgement of ill-gotten monies, as is necessary in order to redress injury to consumers and the public interest resulting from defendant's violations of Section 5(a) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45(a); and 9 3. Award the Commission the costs of bringing this action, as well as any other equitable relief that the Court may determine to be just and proper.

That's Right 15,000 dollars in your PayPal account - IT WAS PROVEN ON OPRAH, DATELINE, NATIONAL TV & IT S COMPLETELY LEGAL!!! 10 Dollars... That's all it takes...I'll try to keep it short and sweet. FIRST, PRINT THIS OUT TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS EASIER! .. PAYPAL MAGIC!!! .. TURN $6.00 INTO $15,000 IN ONLY 30 DAYS...HERES HOW! This is a Money Scheme and Not, I repeat... This is Not a Scam!!! You have most likely seen or heard about this project on TV programs such as 20/20 and Oprah, or you may have read about it in the Wall Street Journal. If not, here it is below - revealed to you in step-by-step detail. This program is by no means new. It has been in existence in many forms for at least a decade. But in the early days, it required a lot more time and effort, as well as an investment of a few hundred dollars. However thanks to PayPal and the Internet, the investment is now virtually ZERO! And what's more, the entire process is FASTER, EASIER, and MORE LUCRATIVE than it has EVER been! Below is the email sent to me: How to Turn $6.00 into $15,000 in 30 Days with PayPal. AS SEEN ON OPRAH!! I GUARANTEE U WILL NOT REGRET DOING THIS, U WILL WISH U HAD DONE THIS YEARS AGO!! PAYPAL VERIFIES THAT THIS $6 INVESTMENT SCHEME IS 100% LEGAL AND IS A BIG HIT THIS YEAR SEE THEIR NOTE BELOW OR ASK THEM DIRECTLY... THIS SCHEME MIGHT TAKE 15-30 MINUTES AND JUST $6, BUT IT IS 100% WORTH IT TO MAKE THOUSANDS SO QUICKLY. THIS IS NOT ANOTHER SCAM THAT TAKES LOTS OF YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY; THIS IS A NO RISK INVESTMENT THAT WILL MAKE YOU THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS VERY EASILY AND QUICKLY. - quote - > From PayPal: "Dear Member, it has come to our attention that there is a PayPal scheme floating around at the moment you may have heard or seen the $6 scheme. You may have even taken part in it well we have been asked a lot of questions about this scheme the answer is yes it does work and yes it is safe to use providing you follow the rules it is legal and has made a big hit on the internet this year. If you would like to take part in this scheme or would like a bit more information then please see the attached file that was kindly donated to us. Thank you for using PayPal!" Get rid of student loans, get out of debt, make money to go travelling!! Making Money - This Really Works Keep in mind that everything stated below is 100% legal as stated by the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161). A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of Dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! : Anyway it said that you have to send $1.00 to each of the following names on the list, stated at the end of this article using Paypal. You don't have to be preferred or verified to transfer and receive money, so you lose no money through transfers. Now honestly, what is six Dollars, especially out of a Paypal account. In exchange you will make thousands in the first few months. You then place your own name and email address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands of newsgroups) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I know that you have seen this on Oprah or even received numerous messages about this simple program and have probably just deleted them, I know I have! But for some unknown reason this time I decided to give it a try. Please give it an honest effort, you will not be disappointed and will be very glad you did when it starts to work. Remember, all you're going to be out of pocket is about the cost of a couple of coffees with the opportunity of banking thousands of Dollars into your PayPal account! I sent out my measly $6.00 to the six people on the list. Well GUESS WHAT!!... Within 7 days, I started: getting $$$$$ in my account! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the CASH just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $15,060.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $26,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00 and 6 minutes to send it out. This program WORKS, all you have to do is try it, and waste some pocket change. You could find six Dollars lying around the house. There is absolutely nothing you could lose. Just follow the 3 basic steps below to make thousands in just a few days, weeks, or months, it all depends on how many posts of this letter you put in message boards or send as emails. Here's how it works: When you post 200 messages all over the internet, it is estimated that at least 15 people will respond and send you a $1.00. ($15.00) Those 15 will Post 200 Posts each and 225 people send you $1.00 ($225.00) Those 225 people Post 200 Posts each and 3,375 people send you $1.00 ($3,375.00) Those 3,375 post 200 posts each and 759,375 people send you $1.00 ($759,375.00) At this point your name drops off the list, but so far you have received $813,615.00. Note: I'm not saying this is going to make everyone 800 grand, but lets say even 1 person out of 200 tries this program, you are still going to make 50,000 Dollars anywhere from 1 month to 6 months max!!!!! You can also copy this letter and email it to some of your friends and associates, it's a guarantee that some of them will be interested and give it a go, the more that do the more you make. INSTRUCTIONS 1. Send $1.00 to each of the six people on the list using Paypal, and in the comment (Subject) section type "Please add me to your list". Below are the emails that you transfer the money into: Paypal accounts to send 1 Dollar to : 1) pridefightgear[at]yahoo.com 2) mambo_james[at]hotmail.co.uk 3) ringmaster_37370[at]yahoo.com 4) no_vendettas[at]hotmail.com 5) kamishaa[at]hotmail.com 6) nany22[at]hotmail.com 2.After sending the money to the first 6 people on the list, you can remove the name next to the #1 on the list and move the rest of the names up one position (#2 becomes #1, #3 becomes #2, etc?) Then place your name in the #6 position. Then save it. 3. When you have completed the instructions, take this letter and then go to (Google, Yahoo,...) and type in (Making Money Message board, Money Message Board, Money Forum, Free money Forum, or anything along those lines that are forums) and start posting your copy of this message at least 200 times, to as many unique message boards as you can, or more. The more times you post this at a unique board, the more money you will make. You can email your message to as many people you can but remember, the more you post and email the more money you make! Keep a copy of this letter so you can use it a second time. Post it out again in six months, but Post it with the addresses you receive with each Dollars. It will work better the second time. Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those joining the actual Internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will work. If you don't have a paypal account you can copy the link below and follow the instructions. It's totally secure, costs you nothing to set-up and is a very useful way of transferring and more importantly receiving money. You will be amazed every time you check your account to see how much money has been paid into it, and this money goes straight in without any deductions. To sign up for Paypal follow this link, just make sure that you use the same email address for your paypall account that you put in this list, that's how your payments are made. 4. This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions. In this business your product is not solid and tangible, itıs a service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from the mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me asking to be included in that list. 5.This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to 18 Sec. 1302 & 1241 of the Postal Lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money, you can use it again and again. This is the biggest growing internet money making scheme on the net, you will see that as you post your letter to the message boards, but that just proves how successful it really is. 6. Good luck, don't forget to follow the instructions correctly.. |
