Big Mommas Smokehouse bbq/ TSC Restaurant Group Kenny Stephens, Christiani Stephens lured us into a Ponzi scheme or scam and took our investment money and haven't heard from since. Tampa Florida

Kenny Stephens and his wife Christianni lured my family into investing our savings with a promise of a fast and lucrative return. There stage was a shotty restaurant concept called Big Mommas Smokehouse Bbq under the umbrella TSC Restaurant Group.  

They approached us and were very persistent with 3 agreements each with its own purpose. (3)$5000  investments into there Bbq, Chargilled burgers joint and their Wang house. They would call us and text us daily to hurry up because yhere wsd another family interested and they wanted us to be the only exclusive investment partners. Since the restaurants looked established and his talk seemed promising we moved forward and invested. 

Once they received our hard earned savings they cut off almost all communication with my family and it was very hard to get in contact with the Stephens'. After about a week or two with playing phone tag and "just missed them" my wife and I stopped by there location confronted "Chef Ken" as he liked to be called and asked him about our investment and where the money went too. He became very violent and aggressive towards my wife and I I felt like he was trying to provoke me into getting into a fist fight with him. I told him as well as my wife actually demanded my money back which resulted with him running us off the property threatening us using vulgar language. Needless to say we realize we have made a very bad financial decision in trusting a smooth talking couple that literally takes advantage of hard working families. We know we will never see that money again. They need to be stopped. Please help us.
