This is not a real claim. Marco Kozlowski never received a dollar from this customer. His affiliated companies however did. This is an attempt to smear Marco's reputation over their lack of effort.Asking Marco Mozlowski to be responsible even though he did all the work is rediculous.Marco Kozlowski did deliver ALL services to Him. Asking for a refund after products are delivierd.... he attended ALL events. Received ALL the information promised. No refund can or will be offered to him. This is a typical case of blaming others for their own lack of commitment. Each individual is responsible for their own results. I have 4 months of audio recordings with each session had with this customer. He was given 4 months for the price of 2 to help their financial situation, allowed to come to 2 private events, 3 group events and access to all materials.if they took responsibility for their own actions. They would see results.
Typical response from a fraud. Not his first fraud case and defiantly won't be his last. Dealt only with Marco Kozlowski and no one else. Calling 10 hrs of work a day lack of effort and commitment just shows these persons true nature. All recordings and email of stealing deals will be sent to the media in US, Canada, UK and Australia and other regulatory authorities if money is not refunded.
I’m a fraud? - in the few months we worked together here are the properties you put under contract....let me refresh your short memory Over Millions in assets for pennies on the dollar - I gave you access to financing - even co-signed your financing when you weren’t approved…. but you were too greedy to give up a % of the deal - you wanted all the deal - without bringing anything more to the table - investors were ready- you were not….Two (yes 2) incredibly profitable assisted living facilities in Port Orange that i personally did due diligence on for youA mobile Home park in Ripley Tn that you chose to pass on - despite it being a 22 cap an apartment complex in Arkansas that another student wanted to buy from you, but you were greedy to take it - you left the seller in a bind for months - your contract expired so another student out of Vancouver went direct too the seller to close because you didn’t do what you promised.And finally a monster profitable deal in Port St. Lucie, FL that was over 30% return that I also went with you to check out… Blaming others is always the easy way out - I did my part - I have all email chains, all the contracts and all the recordings to support my participation and passionate commitment in your success - what happens after you do it "your way" is your business - not mine. take responsibility for your actions - like grown ups do.I only wish you good luck and good fortune to you and your family.
Read the claim again and you will get your answers in it. Your deal stealing tactics was busted by your so called Vancouver student. This was not the only asset that was stolen from us where you were directly involved. You are a sweet talking crook with no ethics who needs to be exposed in media so no one else falls into your trap again. As soon as this complaint is made public it will be sent to all- don't think by banning me on Facebook you can silence our grievance. Please do not respond to me again unless you plan on refunding our money back to us.
Funny how facts now make you call ME names.... Rohit Chand out of Vancouver - you know he's real, you negotiated with each other...LOL and were at the same events....Your negativity and name calling other students that bust their a$$ that don't expect to "get rich quick" by doing nothing got you banned from my Facebook groups - you created that on yourself - Just like now... you trying to discredit me over your lack of action and negativity....makes YOU look bad - not me...very sad - for you.Again, I wish you and your family great success... might be easier if you start with a positive attitude though...
This is a difficult one. I checked the link provided by the claimant and also Googled further. Multiple news reports allege that Marco Kozlowski misrepresented his relationship with Richard Branson, showcased 'deals' that proved to be bogus, and misrpresented the earnings of his students. Kozlowski came up with some extremely unconvincing explanations. I personally would not do business with such a person, although apparently the claimant wasn't aware of these issues until later. The first response from Kozlowski- 'it wasn't me, it was my companies' - is so ridiculous that I completely disregard that.
A 100% refund may not be fair because the claimant cannot possibly have learned nothing and also continued to work with Marco Kozlowski over a couple of years. Yes, you get sucked in and keep thinking that the next lesson will be the one. However, there's a certain level of "caveat emptor."
On the other hand, if a package of specific help was sold and not provided as advertised, then the FTC etc. might well take issue with that. If Kozlowski misrepresented his knowledge and experience, and if Kozlowski really did use his students' work to enrich himself or cronies, then that could be a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Due diligence on an assisted living facility is extremely rigorous and quite specific. I would suggest that the claimant attaches the due diligence on the ALFs that was provided by Kozlowski. There are probably some lawyers in this forum that could comment on whether or not it was competent.
So that is my "unless..." I suggest that the two parties come to a reasonable compromise, which in my view and given my limited knolwedge of the actual interactions, would be 75%.
This part of your claim is serious.
"Mr Kozlowski when finally, it came to our attention through an agent that he was going behind our backs and acquiring the deals I had worked so hard on putting together after investing more than 10 hours a day on researching, calling and negotiating deals and to find out they were being stolen by the same person who is supposed to assist me in acquiring them and secured them for himself with other students whom were ready to partner with him and receive 1/3rd of the profits is NOT fair."
Can you provide proof of your accusation here? If true it implies bad faith and possibly fraud- but the later would depend upon the circumstances and your written agreement with him.
My best guess is that he owes you a full refund at a minimum but possibly damages if it went to court and was proved that he used your work, contacts and other info to circumvent you and buy the properties out from behind your back. Do you have deed copies, affidavits or other info that show he purchased the properties that you first sourced and were negotiating on? Can you connect your communication of info to him with his subsequent purchases? If so, you might have a quantum meruit claim which basically covers you for fair compensation for your work- regardless of what was stipulated in any formal agreement you had with him. In this case being an involuntary finder- for sourcing property that he bought. In other words you were paying him to work for his sole benefit. Even if you hadn't paid him he might owe you a finder's or consultant's fee for your efforts under Quantum Merut because you provided a service and he benefited. Beyond this you could also have a claim for actual damages because you lost the opportunity to benefit from the properties he acquired behind your back.
One other issue would be tortious interference. If he caused you damaged by interfering through bad faith or deception in your dealings with the property owners.

So if what you've stated is accurate, you seem to have a good case in court agains Kozlowski. But of course there are always two sides to every story and it would cost you significant time and money to pursue legal claims even if your case is strong. Are you aware of other similar claims ? a class action might be a more cost effective way to pursue claims if there are others who have had smiler issues.
IMPORTANT:
I'm just speculating here and this ISN'T LEGAL ADVICE- just something you and anyone else with a similar problem with him might want to discuss with a lawyer if you're unsuccessful in reaching a fair resolution here.
Good luck to both of you- I'd strongly suggest avoiding court by coming to a fair resolution here.
