4. The Defendants made all of these false representations to the Plaintiff in order to get the Plaintiff to wire $300,000.00 into an escrow account under the Defendants’ exclusive control so that the Defendants could take the Plaintiff’s $300,000.00 and use it for their own personal reasons.

5. The Defendants knew that the following representations were false at the time that they made representations to the Plaintiff: (1) that they had $700,000.00 of their own money in an escrow account, (2) that they needed an
