UPDATED: AARON GERSHFIELD, A HISTORY OF A CONMAN AND HIS COHORTS, PART 2. THE FIRST VERSION OF THIS WAS A WONDERFUL PIECE ON FRAUDBUG BEFORE THAT SITE WAS HACKED BY SOMEONE DESPERATE TO BLOCK EYECARE INTERNATIONAL REPORTS MAINLY FROM EMPLOYEES STILL PRESENT OR RECENTLY DEPARTED. THE PIECE WAS ALSO LATER BLOCKED AND OUR INTREPID FRIEND HAS DONE EVERYTHING HE CAN TO PREVENT IT FROM BEING SEEN BUT ITS TOO LATE AS I SUSPECT THOUSANDS OF VIEWERS TO THAT SITE HAD ALREADY DOWNLOADED THE PIECE. I CAN ALSO REPORT FROM INSIDE NORTHWAY HOUSE, AND I GOT THIS DIRECTLY FROM ONE OF STEPHANIE'S ZORRO GIRLS, THAT AARON IS SUING THE AUTHOR OF THE PIECE. I DO NOT KNOW THE NAME AS YET, BUT I WILL FIND OUT EVENTUALLY AND CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS TO HAPPEN! I AM WONDERING WHO HAS THE BALLS TO GET AARON INTO COURT (ME I AM SELLING TICKETS). THE ORIGINAL WRITER WILL I HOPE ALLOW ME A SMALL INDULGENCE AND ALLOW ME TO ADD A FEW UPDATES OF MY OWN INTERESSTED PARTIES SHOULD DOWNLOAD THIS NEW VERSION QUICKLY BEFORE THIS RIP OFF REPORT SITE IS HACKED INTO AS WELL. CONTINUE READING TO LEARN ABOUT THE THE LOAN SHARK SCAMMER:
Aaron Gershfield
Dreamer of great business achievements but in reality nothing but a conman, although he had made millions from illegal scams has houses in Bishops Ave, Hampstead, Whetstone, Oakleigh Park, Muswell Hill, his family trust own the building Northway House through Transview properties. This company had its own moment of glory in 2008/2009 trial and appeal both lost in the high court where he tried to get out of a 2.5 million payment to City Sites (the previous owners). The appeal judges branded Gershfield, Harries and Kleyman unreliable (plain language liars). This sham cost around £1,000,000 in legal fees, excluding unpaid costs to the other side!
Ivor Gershfield
Aging mentor to Aaron now semi retired looks like a genial old man but is still as sharp as ever and just as crooked as his son. Still heavily involved with all the offshore bankers and trusts controlling the (now dwindling) Gershfield fortune. Conveniently has ties to Cyprus and Turkey (no extradition treaty). Regular little Asil Nadir is Ivor!
Ian Foster Harries
Although he holds no shares in any of the companies he is director to many, he is highly rewarded for his part in these scams and has progressed from a modest three bedroom semi in West London to a palatial detached property still in west London value 3million plus. Harries is a quietly spoken devious slime ball who has the task of keeping people away from Aaron as he explodes when temper tantrums prevail that have him roaring through the building swearing and insulting staff on a regular basis he is a complete sleeze ball who knows where all the bodies are buried and is very well paid for his complicity.
Stephanie Lara Kleyman
Known as the pitbull or superbitch (take your pick, I vote Queen Bitch!) a very nasty piece of work. Her task as head of Meade plc Legal is to present Zorro law and Zorro Law Personal Services as a legitimate organization. She along with her sidekick Mariam Sharafrazi are directors and secretary of these law firms mainly used in unfair dismissals against staff and other nefarious activities. This is a "woman" who will perjure herself in court and used every dirty trick in the book to get her employers out of paying contractors and anyone else they owe money to. If you are a tenant at Northway House, you’ve likely already experienced this woman’s tactics. Threaten to report her to the Law Society and she backs off. She does not want an inspection of her law firm’s accounts!
Goutham Yogesh Bafna
Come a long way from call centre operator has our Yogesh. He’s now director of several companies especially McCarthy and Allen a very dubious company with ties in Singapore transferring a million shares to another dodgy offshore trust. His nickname is The Keeper referring to the passports taken from students who by law are allowed to work 20 hours a week but in reality do more like 50 and tax is deducted from their wages. Ruled by fear of deportation. When they do manage to leave this company the tax offices have no record of tax ever being paid. A complete toady is our Yogesh, and completely owned by Aaron, so unable to leave.
Ed Tracey
Golden haird and soft spoken, Ed Tracy is the patsy frontman director of Meade Investments. Ed is a polite, well mannered, and by all accounts, competent junior level corporate drone--having trained in the city. Handpicked and groomed by Gershfield to be his successor (passing over heir in waiting Oliver Gershfield). Ed is in FAR too deep and last we heard is about to jump ship. Looks like the reins are all yours Oliver!
Stephen Gray
Shady, exiled American tax lawyer living in Europe, who we now know to have been instrumental in planning and guiding Aaron and co through setting up all the payday loan companies including help in dodging the taxman (both here and in America) and laundering all the illegal proceeds through offshore trusts (document attached). Using companies in tax havens like Belize and the Seychelles, our Stephen is quite the entrepreneur and obviously well compensated for his complicity.
Sandeep Chauhan
What can we say about Sandeep? He does what he is told, when he is told, and will jump to whatever height is required on demand. He is absolutely useless in all departments, knows nothing about anything and will just Google all subjects and then deny all responsibility when things go wrong. A creep of the highest order with no discernable skills which is why he remains. Enough said!
Lorraine Coombes left the company and will do the right thing now.
Tim Johnson
Tim is a weedy little man who had been with Gershfield as he loves to boast for ten years or more. A former bank manager and deposed head of Gershfield’s failed spin off financial ventures, he currently heads up HR at Meade (such as it is). Staff nickname him the grim reaper as he does all the low level firings. Anything difficult is fastracked to Zorro law. Tim also serves as Gottlieb’s number two, hocking the ridiculous Eyecare and Bodycare to "blue chip" clients! What a weasel of a man. Trapped by the high salary and mouths to feed, he bends over and takes it from anyone and everyone and probably enjoys it.
Andrew Mark Osman
Andrew is a seemingly innocent and quite jovial head of "strategy" for Meade and its related failed companies. Creator of convoluted and unworkable business plans, he is best avoided at all costs. Aaron’s virtual mini-me, this man will literally talk you to death, and then feed off your carcass! If you see him, run. Fast as he won’t be able to keep up with you.
Dean Taylor left the company and will do the right thing now.
Mark Gottlieb
Self proclaimed media guru (failed) and a total tosspot director of Rovinge Group this is the mob that made the disastrous 3 & Out. He is also involved in the operation of the trailers and is a director of Eyecare International, Serviceyes Ltd, and Bodycare International Ltd. Turns out, Gottlieb is actually more smooth talking silver fox, than loud mouthed yob and is presented as the PR face of Gershfield’s ventures. Though obviously well paid for his efforts, he is nevertheless just another lackey and minion.
Jim Harris
Harris was drafted by the Gershfield’s to head up the American lending operation, He was the supposedly squeaky clean corporate fact of the murky lending empire. Liaising with sidekicks Mark Borel and Dainella Preston, he helped Gershfeild collect and transfer millions from American bank account. Was finally apprehended and sued by the FTC along with the Gershfield’s. Possibly inactive, but still knows far too much about the payday to be discounted.
Jacqueline Hunter
Another new name well connected to the Gershfield’s. This mysterious Guernsey based operative of The Harris Holdings and signatory to all kinds of illegal swap agreements and other dubious Gershfield company supposedly "arms length" contracts should be carefully watched. A very dangerous and well paid woman is our Jacqueline. The authorities are already looking into her ties with North Atlantic Trust out of Gibraltar and her eponymous JBH Holdings as well as her involvement with other Gershfield family facilitators.
Tara Kozal
Ostensibly, Aaron Gershfield’s PA, rumour has it she is truly a very personal assistant of Aaron , replacing former confidante Verra Mawhinney. Tara serves as the corporate "face" of Meade, always immaculately dressed and meticulously manicured, but behind the facade, she is the head of the Gestapo like secret Meade police. She is the eyes and ears of Aaron around the building, and round the clock! Yes, Tara knows all and dutifully reports all to her master. Your secrets are not safe with Two faced Tara.
Minor players
Too stupid to waste time on faithful yes folks one and all, but they do know the score and are trapped by either their own incompetence or greed.
