Self Congratulatory?

Self Congratulatory?


ABOVE: Alleged financial fraudster Sean David Morton.



Actually written by someone, or is this Morton patting himself on the back?

The thing that makes this supposed comment/review suspicious is the line, "Not sure if Nick forwarded this to you..." So if the guy who supposedly wrote this had Morton's e-mail address, why would he need to have someone forward it in the first place? Smells like Morton, folks...


A nice comment/review

Hi Sean,
Not sure if Nick forwarded this to you but,
A few years back you recommended I follow Nicholas Winston, that trading stocks was going to be the best way to follow golds rise.
I didn’t know anything about trading but started following you anyway… and I bought some gold and silver coins and opened a brokerage account.
Soon after, I lost my job started renting out my residence as a vacation rental and the family stayed at my sisters …when the house was rented…. I also consulted but seeming as my bills were 10k/month at the time I lost my job, that was still not enough.
Cashing in gold coins helped kept me afloat for that year and a half of being unemployed but I also started trading.
The Nicholas’s advice made a huge difference for me!
The money I made trading made all the difference, I was able to make all my bill payments.
Last year I made 180k, the most I ever made totalling all income streams even though I was unemployed for 6 months of it!
I have just bought a house in Boise, you may know how hard it is to buy a house these days but I will be able to keep some money in my brokerage, I didn’t sell my house in CA and I have had emergency after emergency pop up but still able to purchase the second home.

To make a long story short, Thanks!
Sean you have made the difference in my life that without, like a house of cards (that most of us lead our lives), could have come tumbling down.
But didn’t.

Regards,
Cole

The Bullshit Runeth Over

Morton Tries Out Another Bio
Sean David Morton posts yet another biography in an attempt to reinvent self


ABOVE: Accused psychic scam artist Sean David Morton

How many biographies can one person have? If you ask Sean David Morton this, it appears there are no limits. In yet another dizzying and ever changing biography recently posted on Morton's website, new information is added about Morton's alleged past with Morton apparently repeating many claims that have been refuted.

Morton's previous biographical incarnations were challenged and exposed by ufowatchdog.com, leading Morton in a failed legal bid to silence the ufowatchdog.com investigation exposing Morton and his claims.

Morton, among others, stands accused of committing securities fraud and bilking over one-hundred investors out of more than $6,000,000.00. A lawsuit filed by the SEC in this matter has recently moved forward after all of Morton's attempts to quash the lawsuit have failed.

So how many more morphing biographies will we see from Morton? Any psychics out there care to give a gander into the future? I'd ask Morton to predict this, but...

SEC Moves Forward with Lawsuit Against Morton


Morton Fails To Stop SEC Lawsuit Charging Him, Others with Fraud


ABOVE: Bunk psychic and alleged securities fraudster Sean David Morton

Just over a year ago, the United States Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) filed suit in New York Federal District Court against Sean David Morton and Melissa Ann Morton accusing the two, among others, with defrauding one-hundred investors out of more than $6,000,000.00 in what the SEC called a "psychic scheme."

On April 1, 2011, with Morton likely hoping it was one big April Fool's Day prank, a judge issued a ruling dismissing all of the briefs in opposition filed by The Mortons in their unsuccessful bid to have the SEC lawsuit dismissed. In the briefs, described as incoherent, rambling, and legally baseless, The Mortons alleged that they had never been properly served legal papers by the SEC.

Federal Magistrate Judge Michael H. Dolinger ruled in favor of the SEC and dismissed several petitions made to the court by The Mortons including a motion for summary judgement, a challenge regarding being served, and a ludicrous request for documents and other items that exceeded the scope of the claims. You can read the SEC filing here along with Judge Dolinger's order.

In papers filed by the SEC, it appears that The Mortons did everything they could to avoid a number of process servers attempting to serve them with the SEC lawsuit filing. These attempts to evade being served included Melissa Morton alleging to be a neighbor named Vicki, which unfortunately for Melissa Morton it turned out that the process server had already spoken to the real Vicki.

In another instance cited by the SEC, Sean David Morton was in New York and got caught in an elevator where he tried to hide his face with a hat and scarf - turns out he got served and went so far as to grab a phone out of the process server's hand when he attempted to take a picture of Morton as proof.

It never gets old: How did a psychic not see all of this coming?

Yet another morphing Morton bio

Mighty Morphing Morton Biography


ABOVE: Alleged investor swindler Sean David Morton

If there is one thing I believe Sean David Morton is an expert in, it would be historical revisionism. Morton has yet again rewritten his biography, one of many that have popped up over the years. I'd post the bio here, but ihis usual long winded blathering, Morton has made the bio extremely long and Blogger unfriendly - you can read it here.

Morton makes no mention of his alleged ability to accurately predict the stock market nor of the millions he claims to have made from such activities. How convenient. One thing that stuck out was Morton's claim that a self published novel that was "well reviewed" and "critically acclaimed" is supposedly moving up the charts on Amazon.com's sales list. The books is listed by Amazon.com as being ranked at 1,713,116. Maybe it moved from 1,713,117?

You can read more on Morton's ever changing and various biographies at the ufowatchdog.com website undisputed investigation into Sean David Morton, "The Shameless Psychic and His Prophecy of Lies."

Litigation in the case of the Securities & Exchange Commission's fraud suit against Sean David Morton is continuing.

Rebranding Failure

Rebranding Failure
If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again!


ABOVE: Accused psychic scammer Sean David Morton.


It's been just over a year since bunk psychic Sean David Morton was hit with a lawsuit by the Securities & Exchange Commission, which accused Morton and his wife of swindling one-hundred investors out of more than $6,000,000 in a psychic scam where Morton told investors he could use his powers to accurately predict the outcome of the market. It just never makes sense; how does a psychic not see it coming?

The litigation in this matter is onging and ufowatchdog.com has learned of the looming possibility that there may be federal criminal charges at some point. The lawsuit has progressed slowly with Morton trying everything to derail it to no avail, with his last motion to dismiss being tossed out of court.

In the meantime, Morton has once again reinvented his website, sans any real link to info, likely on his way to start promoting himself and products based on the coming 2012 lameness being spun and sold by every other new age wacko out there.

Inquiring minds want to know...

...when Sean David Morton will use an updated and untouched photo of himself for promos? Highlight hair? Check. Suit and tie? Check. Silly medallion? Check. Youth? Um, youth? Seriously, this is pretty pretentious to be using an outdated photo, and certainly cliche.


Then.....................and....................Now

And seriously, do people actually pay $20 or $25 to listen this guy ramble? I guess some people would considering some trusted him with over $6,000,000.00 of their money that Morton allegedly scammed from them.

Not much else on the Morton vs. The SEC front other than litigation is still ongoing and it might be a while before it gets to court, as such cases often drag out over long periods of time. Oh, and AIC is trying to get a hold of one of The Mortons. Could you please call them at 1-877-451-2620? I'm sure they'd appreciate hearing from you.

Morton goes on...and on...and on

Same Old Morton, Same Old Claims, Same Old Nonsense


ABOVE: Bunk psychic Sean David Morton is accused of defrauding investors
out of more $6,000,000.00.

It looks like someone gave Morton a soapbox for him to stand on and, as usual, blather on about everything. There are seven parts to this interview, but just skip ahead on part one to about eight minutes in to skip the fluff.

It was a surprise to hear Morton still making the same old claims that have been clearly refuted and endorsed by the state of California courts.

While Morton has claimed to have a doctorate degree in Theology, a new claim has been made by Morton that he has a Ph.D. in "therapeutic counseling." And Morton even claimed that he has "inhand" a mathematical formula that allows "you to access the entire space-time continuum." Uh, sure.

Morton continued to rail on about the allegations made and lawsuit filed against him by the Securities & Exchange Commission, which alleges that Morton swindled investors out of more than $6,000,000.00 in a psychic scheme.

Morton said the SEC documents do not accuse him of taking any of the money. Yes, the documents do accuse Morton of illegally diverting hundreds of thousands of dollars of investor funds to his so-called non-profit organization, PRI.

Some things never change...

UPDATE: In part of the interview linked to above, Morton actually claims that the government has a star fleet in space much like Star Trek and that we built a base on the moon. Somewhere a clock is sounding, "Koo-koo. Koo-koo."
