The renewables development firm claimed that its “proprietary process and technology” put it in position “to assume the leading role in Green Hydrogen production.” The company said it was building a green hydrogen plant in Arizona that would be worth about $530 million within 5 years, according to marketing materials it shared with investors.<br/><br/>ROI raised $31 million from over 200 investors but apparently only invested $200,000 in the business; the firm’s promoters Paul Croft and J.D. Frost diverted the rest of the investors’ money to themselves and entities they control, according to an investor lawsuit filed in Illinois last month, which cited bank records obtained through subpoenas. Beginning in 2021 until last year, Croft, a 42-year-old entrepreneur living in Chicago, and Frost, a 40-year-old accountant based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, raised approximately $46 million from a series of phony renewables investment schemes, which the pair used to live extravagantly, pay employees at their tax advisory business, pay down short-term loans and even lend money to embattled professional hockey player Robin Lehner, according to allegations in lawsuits, bankruptcy filings, former investors and ex-employees of Croft’s and Frost’s businesses who spoke with Forbes on the record, and others with knowledge of the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to speak about sensitive information.<br/><br/>0:00 Introduction<br/>0:28 The Founding Of Rhino Onward International<br/>3:34 Who Was Scammed By Croft And Frost?<br/>6:11 Who Are Croft And Frost?<br/>9:21 When Did Investors Figure Out The Scam?<br/>12:17 Embellishing Wealth And Origin Stories<br/>14:26 What's Next?<br/><br/>Read the full story on Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnhyatt/2024/04/23/anatomy-of-a-46-million-renewable-energy-swindle/?sh=767c07c23c4b<br/><br/>Subscribe to FORBES: https://www.youtube.com/user/Forbes?sub_confirmation=1<br/><br/>Fuel your success with Forbes.

_trump-faces-contempt-charges-threat-of-jail-looms-over-violation-of-gag-order.webp "We have an update on the hush money trial involving former President Donald Trump. The judge presiding over the case has held Trump in criminal contempt for violating a gag order. This order prohibited Trump from making any attacks on jurors and witnesses. The judge ruled that Trump had violated the order nine times, and as a result, he imposed a fine of $1,000 for each violation. However, he went even further and warned Trump that if he continues to violate the order, he could face even harsher consequences. He explicitly stated that Trump could be jailed for further violations and emphasized the seriousness of these violations, making it clear that he will not tolerate any more disobedience from the former president. This case continues to garner attention and will undoubtedly have significant implications for the future of Trump's legal battles. We will keep you updated on any further developments in this trial, on Fan Reviews News.")

In a surprising turn of events, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former President Donald Trump recently met privately in Miami, according to multiple sources. This meeting marks an attempt to mend their rocky relationship after a contentious GOP primary, in which Trump emerged as the winner over DeSantis. While the details of their recent meeting remain undisclosed, it is clear that there is a concerted effort to mend the rift between DeSantis and Trump. As both influential figures in the Republican Party, their reconciliation could have significant implications on future political dynamics. Whether they can truly bury the hatchet and find common ground remains to be seen, but it wouldn't be shocking if DeSantis becomes Trump's number one supporter moving forward. We will keep you updated with everything happening in the 2024 Election, on Fan Reviews News.")
