Meet Mark Adams and his third wife, Julie Thornton-Adams.  These scam artists stole 1.5 MILLION dollars from me by selling me a villa in Mexico they claimed to have owned. They claim to be large real estate investors but it is all a sham. They sold me a property that they had no legal title too. All the documents were forged.  I later came to find out by Mexican authorities that there are arrest warrants out for both mark and Julie in Cabo San Lucas. Apparently they have pulled this scam many times. 

I have initiated legal action against them but my attorney has warned me not to get my hopes up.  A preliminary asset search is finding little to nothing in the couples name.

False and Defamatory Statements by a Cyberbully

AUTHOR: Mark - (United States)

POSTED: Tuesday, March 19, 2019

The statements in this Anonymous Defamatory Report posted by a cyberbully are provably false and libelous per se. In truth: Julie Thornton-Adams is not Mark Adams' third wife. She is his second wife. They were married in 1996; Mark Adams and/or Julie Thornton-Adams are not scam artists; they did not steal $1.5 million from anyone; Mark Adams and/or Julie Thornton-Adams have never sold a villa in Mexico to anyone.

They have never claimed to anyone that they own or have title to a villa in Mexico. They have never claimed to anyone that they are large real estate investors. They have never forged any documents to any property, including any property in Mexico. And they have not ever "pulled this scam" anywhere or at any time; Mark Adams and/or Julie Thornton-Adams do not have any arrest warrants issued for them in Cabo San Lucas, or any other place, or at any other time; and, Mark Adams and Julie Thornton-Adams have substantial assets in their name.

Mark Adams and Julie Thornton-Adams have filed an lawsuit on March 14, 2019 against the person or persons who made the Anonymous Defamatory Report entitled Mark Adams and Julie Thornton v. John Doe and Does 1 – 10, in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange, Central Justice Center, and numbered 30-2019-01057718-CU-DF-CJC in that court, the Honorable Judge Sheila Fell presiding.

A court conformed copy of that lawsuit is attached. Mark Adams and Julie Thornton's attorneys will be seeking pre-service discovery to unmask the presently anonymous "John Doe" in accordance with California and Arizona law and will amend the complaint with the poster's true name when that is completed. In the meantime, demand is made that the poster of the Anonymous Defamatory Report immediately publish a full, fair, and properly made retraction of the defamatory statements, such that an impartial person would consider the retraction reasonable and satisfactory under the circumstances.

Further, request is made that the poster of the Anonymous Defamatory Report identify him or herself without the necessity of utilizing the legal process. Finally, request is made that the poster of the Anonymous Defamatory Report voluntarily accept service of summons and complaint and respond thereto.
