Lawyers representing dozens of plaintiffs who claim they were swindled out of their retirement savings by a now defunct Los Angeles gold investor are trying to push the alleged scammers into federal bankruptcy to speed up any recovery.
San Diego attorney Maria Severson, who co-represents scores of allegedly defrauded investors, said she also is seeking the appointment of a trustee to take over responsibility for whatever money is left. A California couple thought they’d invested in gold. Instead, they and hundreds of others say they were scammed.
Heather Short of San Diego told the Union-Tribune that she and her husband began investing in Oxford Gold after months of hearing the company’s commercials on a local talk-radio show. In all, the plaintiffs so far total at least 49 people from 27 different states have signed onto the legal complaint.Asking Eric: I let the car thief take the fall for my drugs.
