Upon information and belief, Defendant, 120 Whitesville LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company, with an address at 437 Brentwood Avenue, Toms River, New Jersey 08755. BACKGROUND 13. On or about March 16th 2023, the Defendant, 120 Whitesville LLC in conjunction with Leor Moshe executed an Investment Agreement (“Shtar Iska”), Promissory Note and other related documents (collectively, the “Investment”) finalizing an investment and loan of Two OCN-L -001301-23 12/20/2023 12:23:01 AM Pg 3 of 24 Trans ID: LCV20233671265 Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars. 14. Leor Moshe personally guaranteed the two million Dollar Investment. 15. While this was structured as a loan, in reality, this was an investment with loan documents securing the investment. See Shtar Iska at Exhibit A. 16. For the Investment and based upon the false and fraudulent representations and information provided by Leor Moshe, as described hereunder, at the direction of Leor Moshe, Blueberry caused the sum of Two Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars to be wired Capital Funding ASAP LLC to the account ending at 7004. 17. Leor Moshe provided false verifications, representations and information to Plaintiff in order to secure the Investment. 18. As an inducement for Plaintiff to make the above Investment, Leor Moshe provided an apparently falsified and altered bank statement (the “Bank Statement”) with the name Iruka Funding, LLC (“Iruka”) to demonstrate Leor Moshe’s financial soundness and business dealings and investments that Leor Moshe had by Iruka. See attached at Exhibit B. 19. The Bank Statement was apparently altered to provide the address of 162 Elmora Ave #211 Ellizabeth, NJ 07202. 20. Apparently, the correct address for Iruka Funding, LLC is 437 Brentwood Avenue, Toms River NJ, Leor Moshe’s personal address. 21. Mr. Moshe instead provided the Plaintiff a Bank Statement with an altered address of 162 Elmora Ave #211 Ellizabeth, NJ 07202 which is the address of Iruka Capital Group, a supposed reputable cash advance business, not Iruka Funding LLC. 22. While reviewing the Investment, Mr. Moshe and Plaintiff had several discussions about Mr. Moshe having investments with Iruka Capital Group. 23. During those discussions Mr. Moshe represented to Plaintiff multiple times that he and his interests had $25,000,000.00 in investments at Iruka Capital Group. 24. Mr. Moshe used the Iruka name and apparently falsified address of Iruka Capital OCN-L -001301-23 12/20/2023 12:23:01 AM Pg 4 of 24 Trans ID: LCV20233671265 Group on the Bank Statement to fraudulently demonstrate approximately $25,000,000.00 being deposited with Iruka as proof of business investments being made by Mr. Moshe or on his behalf at Iruka. 25. In apparent furtherance of the fraud, Mr. Moshe also provided Plaintiff a letter (the “Iruka Letter”) with the Iruka Capital Group letterhead and Mark Neuman’s name in the signature line stating that Capital Funding ASAP had an accounts receivable balance of $21,545,000.00 that was invested in cash advance deals. See Exhibit C. 26. On March 1, 2022, Plaintiff asked Mr. Moshe, “Do you have a list of investors that were paid out in the past few months so we can match back the investor payouts?” 27. As additional inducement for Plaintiff to make the Investment to Mr. Moshe, Mr. Moshe provided a list of investors investing with him in the sum of approximately Twenty- Three Million Five Hundred Thousand ($23,500,000.00) Dollars. See attached investor list (the “List”) at Exhibit D. 28. Additionally, Leor Moshe responded, “Yes - there is approximately $25-$30 million invested. That being said, there are 2 things I would like to see to confirm – 1) Asset balances that total approx $25 mil give or take. 2) The minimum investor return is 30% - and the money being lent out is approx. 100% APR -so we would expect returns on $25 million in the $8 mil - $15 mil range in Iruka - if there is no money withdrawn from Iruka.” 29. Leor Moshe additionally represented, “With regards to investor paid back…. once they are paid back they get taken off the list. Below are some names of investors that gave and money was returned. Most of the investors have not taken back money as they are extremely happy.” 30. Leor Moshe also provided TD Bank statements (the “TD Bank Statement”) to Plaintiff. See the TD Bank Statements attached at Exhibit E. 31. Upon current review of the TD Bank Statements, at the time Leor Moshe was defrauding Plaintiff and took millions of dollars from Plaintiff, Leor Moshe, was also apparently OCN-L -001301-23 12/20/2023 12:23:01 AM Pg 5 of 24 Trans ID: LCV20233671265 actively engaged in a Ponzi scheme stealing millions of dollars from multiple parties while using fresh capital investment monies from new investments to provide returns on old investments. See TD Bank Statements at Exhibit E and Goldstien Affidavit at Exhibit F. 32. By way of example, in January 2023, Leor Moshe apparently paid out approximately Six Million, Six Hundred Forty Thousand, Seven Hundred Eight-Four Dollars ($6,640,748.00) to investors. See TD Bank Statements at Exhibit E. 33. However, apparently the income Leor Moshe used to pay these investors was from the Six Million, Five Hundred Sixty Thousand, One Hundred Twenty ($6,560, 120.00) Dollars of new investors money coming in. See TD Bank Statements at Exhibit E. 34. Simply put, Leor Moshe was apparently using new investor money to pay old investor money. 35. Leor Moshe used these records of the apparently fraudulent funds obtained through the ponzi scheme to trick and induce Plaintiff to make the Investment by using such funds to demonstrate apparently false financial stability and to induce Plaintiff to Invest millions of dollars with the Investment Defendants (hereinafter defined). 36. Additionally, apparently numerous parties benefitted from the monies stolen by Leor Moshe. 37. Leor Moshe has been living at 437 Brentwood Avenue, Jackson, New Jersey 08527 (the “Property”) for the last five years. 38. The Property is owned by the Moshe Family Grantor Trust, which is controlled by Leor Moshe and other family insiders. 39. The Moshe Family Grantor Trust is an alter ego for Leor Moshe as he represented to Abraham Miller that the Trust is controlled by him and other family insiders. 40. The Moshe Family Grantor Trusts’ address is listed at 20 Lundi Court, Staten Island, NY 10314 the same address as Leor Moshe’s parents’ home. 41. Further, while living at the Property over the past several years, apparently Leor OCN-L -001301-23 12/20/2023 12:23:01 AM Pg 6 of 24 Trans ID: LCV20233671265 Moshe renovated the Property at significant cost. 42. Upon information and belief, Emuna Moshe, Leor Moshe’s wife, was a co- conspirator as Leor Moshe represented to Abraham Miller that Leor Moshe’s wife, Emuna Moshe, works together with him; additionally, she benefitted tremendously from the significant monies Leor Moshe spent to her benefit. 43. Upon information and belief, Leor Moshe’s relatives, Dov Moshe, Judy Moshe and Hanane Moshe, were all co-conspirators who actively participated, benefitted, and had knowledge of, Leor’s Moshe’s fraudulent actions and ponzi scheme, and benefitted from monies that Leor Moshe provided them. 44. By way of example, per the TD Bank Statements, Leor Moshe paid his father, Dov Moshe, not less than One Hundred Fifty-Two Thousand Three Hundred Twenty-Five ($152, 325.00) Dollars. 45. Upon information and belief, Leor Moshe used his relatives, Dov Moshe, Judy Moshe and Hanane Moshe, to create cover entities and the like to hide the stolen moneys Leor Moshe obtained. 46. Upon information and belief, Leor Moshe’s relatives benefitted from the stolen moneys hidden by them and given to their control. 47. Upon information and belief, the monies stolen by Leor Moshe through the ponzi scheme and fraudulent business activities were comingled in other accounts as well. 48. Indeed, Leor Moshe together with Emunah Moshe, Jacob Goldman, Isaac Odes, Shmuel Kirzner, and Jacob Schlisselfeld (the “Enterprise”) conducted an enterprise designed to perpetrate an ongoing and continuous ponzi scheme on numerous victims including Blueberry Funding LLC over the course of the last few years. See TD Bank Statements at Exhibit E, Goldstien Affidavit at Exhibit F. 49. Leor Moshe in collusion with the Brokers (as defined hereunder) solicited victims for investments that were not actual legitimate investments but was rather a ponzi OCN-L -001301-23 12/20/2023 12:23:01 AM Pg 7 of 24 Trans ID: LCV20233671265 scheme. See TD Bank Statements at Exhibit E, Goldstien Affidavit at Exhibit F. 50. During early 2023, Mr. Moshe, as a principal of the Enterprise, fraudulently induced Blueberry Funding LLC to invest and wire millions of dollars to a bank account controlled by Leor Moshe which monies were then stolen in the ponzi scheme. 51. During mid-2021, Mr. Moshe in collusion with Isaac Odes, as principals of the Enterprise, fraudulently induced Creg Goldstien to invest and wire hundreds of thousands of dollars to a bank account controlled by Leor Moshe which monies were then stolen in the ponzi scheme. See Goldstien Affidavit at Exhibit F. 52. Upon information and belief, Jacob Goldman, Isaac Odes, Shmuel Kirzner, Jacob Shliselfeld, and other “brokers” (the “Brokers”), as principals of the Enterprise, aided and abetted Leor Moshe in this enterprise and the ponzi scheme by actively marketing Leor Moshe as an investment opportunity and receiving commissions for such marketing. See email at Exhibit G. 53. Jacob Goldman received at least $3,047,365.00 in payouts per the TD bank Statements. 54. Additionally, in March 2023, Jacob Goldman apparently received outgoing wires for $64,999, $49,038 and a check for $826,261. See email at Exhibit G. 55. Apparently, Jacob Shlisselfeld received from Leor Moshe quarterly commissions of $205,250. See email at Exhibit G. 56. Apparently, Isaac Odes received from Leor Moshe quarterly commissions of $213,625. See email at Exhibit G. 57. Apparently, Jacob Goldman received from Leor Moshe quarterly commissions of nearly $1,000,000.00 plus additional monthly payments. See email at Exhibit G. 58. Upon information and belief, the monies fraudulently obtained by Leor Moshe from Plaintiff were, at least in part, used and given to the Brokers as payment for their activities in the ponzi scheme. See TD Bank Documents and email at Exhibits E and G respectively. OCN-L -001301-23 12/20/2023 12:23:01 AM Pg 8 of 24 Trans ID: LCV20233671265 59. The Brokers received millions of dollars as payments for actively participating in the ponzi scheme and fraudulent business activities. See TD Bank Documents and email at Exhibits E and G respectively. 60. By way of another example, apparently Leor Moshe has a gambling habit and addiction and has wasted tremendous amounts of stolen money on gambling and similar pursuits. See TD Bank Statements at Exhibit E. 61. Additionally, Leor Moshe used the stolen monies obtained through the Enterprise and ponzi scheme to fund an extravagant and luxurious lifestyle over the last couple of years. 62. By way of example, upon information and belief, Mr. Moshe, during April of 2023, took Emunah Moshe and his family to the Galapagos Islands for the week of Passover for an approximate Eighty-Five Thousand ($85,000.00) Dollar vacation. 63. Additionally, Leor Moshe threw multiple lavish parties at his house costing upwards of $100,000.00 each. 64. Also, upon information and belief, Leor Moshe has a severe gambling habit and supported this habit by gambling millions of dollars over the last couple of years. 65. Further, Leor Moshe has represented to Abe Miller, President of Blueberry Funding that he does not have and does not intend to pay back Plaintiff the moneys Leor Moshe fraudulently received from the Blueberry Investment. 66. Upon information and belief, as of today’s date, Defendants, Leor Moshe and 120 Whitesville LLC (the “Investment Defendant”) have defaulted, misappropriated, and absconded with Two Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars of Plaintiff’s money.
