Tom Reid ran a donation scam in Toronto, Ontario, Canada called the Children's Burn Society, allegedly supplying these children with learning CD"s and trips similar to the Make A Wish Foundation. He does your income tax for you with the donation amount included and then requests money from you upon receipt of your federal tax refund. The CRA then comes knocking on your door, usually in the form of a long, drawn out, and often times extremely tedious audit, for capital gains interest and so forth. BEWARE of this individual and steer as far away from him or his numerously named charities as possible. He has scammed thousands of individuals, and families from all walks of life both blue collared and white. Everyone has been targeted including doctors, lawyers, police officers, labourers and even senior citizens collecting pensions who are no longer even able to contribute to the countries workforce. He has done his dirty work in each and every one of our hard working provinces across Canada and I speculate that he has in some way already infiltrated the US. probably via the electronic means of today.
He puts everything he owns, including properties, artwork, all assets that can be converted to cash, as well anything anyone donates or has donated to his "dummy charities" in the names of his wife or relatives. This includes his son, who has been left "holding the bag" per say in Canada and is awaiting criminal prosecution by the Canadian criminal justice system, which we know all too well is slower then molasses dripping uphill in winter, whenever it comes to big players in the area of white and blue collar crime. This is all assuming he has has no knowledge of his father's scam of course, which in this victims opinion is highly unlikely. Tom Reid utilizes stall tactics and corporate loopholes that he is clearly extremely well versed in and keeps all the gain for himself while pulling off his ruse. He has left a lot of people financially crippled in his path of financial destruction and ruin. |
