In PPE Fraud Dispute With NFL Mark Baron In SDNY Dark Talk of Contacts by FBI

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 17 – Saadia Shapiro, a lawyer who operated as a middleman on PPE transactions, was sued by MSV Synergy and Mark Baron, a former National Football League player.       

          On January 14, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Edgardo Ramos held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.

 The complaint says that Shapiro "used his heightened skills.. to scam a professional football player out of $2 million." 

 Baron was trying to take money selling PPE.  On January 14 it was insisted that Shapiro never met Baron, that his only role was to make introductions. Reference was made to transactions in Thailand.

 More ominously, there was talk of contact by the FBI.   Motion to dismiss is due by February 4.

The case is MSV Synergy, LLC et al v. Shapiro et al., 21-cv-7578 (Ramos)
