“Michael Gibson of Critical Mobilization Group (Wartime Professionals LLC) is a Scammer”
Here, the consumer highlights that Michael Gibson and Amini Osias collaborate to defraud investors in the UAE and the US.
He says they have stolen around $1 million from their victims.
Amini claims he inherited billions from his deceased father in the early 2000s. Also, he claims that he had to fight his siblings in court to get his inheritance. However, he says he can’t access them as they are in a ‘custodial account’.
He tells people that his net worth is nearly $10 billion and submits fake bank statements from UBS and Itau Bank.
Before running Critical Mobilization Group, this duo used to run several other scams.
The complaint highlights that the crime partner of Michael Gibson filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 1997. Below is additional information on his professional history:
- He received a sentence of 2 years probation in Washington DC. His crime was misdemeanor possession of a false identification document.
- In 1999, the authorities in Prince George’s County Maryland had issued a warrant against him for theft.
- Again, in 2001, the authorities charged him with theft.
- The man behind Critical Mobilization Group faced charges of a felony in Virginia for obtaining money by false pretense.
- In 2011, he got a DUI/OWI in Washington DC
- From 2013 to 2016, he failed to pay rent to his landlord.
- In 2018, the New York State Department of Corrections issued an outstanding warrant against Amini Osias as he hadn’t reported to his parole officer in years.
To avoid the US authorities, Osias is residing in the UAE. However, he hasn’t found much success in finding more gullible investors for his scam.
Michael Gibson’s Shady Past:
Apart from highlighting the criminal history of Amini Osias, it throws light on the past of Critical Mobilization Group’s founder.
It shares that Gibson defrauds would-be investors and works with Osias.
He told many Central Ohio investors in 2014 that he had a perpetual energy machine. The name of that company was Genesys Power Corporation.
The Critical Mobilization Group’s owner received $800,000 in funding. However, he couldn’t produce any proof of the technology’s existence. Then, he refused to let any third-party vendor vet his claims.
Afterward, he told his investors about Osias and his fictional fortune.
He convinced them to fund travel for him and Amini Osias to Hong Kong, South Africa, Congo, and Singapore to acquire those funds.
After spending 4 months traveling, the Critical Mobilization Group’s founders couldn’t come up with any funds.
Both of them blamed the banks. They said they were racist.
Surely, all of their excuses were lies.
The owner of Critical Mobilization Group claimed that Amini could underwrite Bank Guarantees and Letters of Credit even though he had no access to his funds.
Yet, all of these transactions failed to give anyone access to Amini’s funds.
In 2017, The Critical Mobilization Group owner raised more funding for Amini and himself. The purpose of these funds was to help them reach Switzerland and complete a $1 billion deal at UBS Bank.
However, Switzerland denied Amini entry.
So, they went to Turkey and stayed there for 5 months.
Although the Critical Mobilization Group founder claims that Switzerland only barred Amini’s entry because of a typo, they couldn’t enter the country after multiple attempts.
“The Critical Mobilization Group Owner Kept Scamming More People”
In 2017, Gibson asked his Ohio investors to send more funds to Amini Osias who had moved to the UAE by then.
Gibson claimed that Amini’s lawyer in Switzerland was arranging for the UBS bank to transfer all of his accounts to Dubai.
The Critical Mobilization Group founder asked the investors to give him $15,000. He claimed he needed the funds to start a UAE company with Osias and get the ‘transferred’ funds.
Also, he told the investors that it was a requirement to release the funds.
Since then, both Gibson and Osias have been living in the UAE.
The complaint highlights that both of them have been spending the money they collected from his Ohio investors.
