SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- Investors say an Oceanside company that promised a green and environmentally friendly way for people to invest their money, instead left them with nothing.Team 10 has spoken to multiple people who said they invested with the Pacific Teak Reforestation Project, managed and developed by Pacific Management Group.On the company’s website, Ron Fleming is listed as PMG’s founder and chairman of the board. The website states the reforestation project “provides individuals, businesses, and institutions around the world with the opportunity to build their financial future, while saving one of the earth’s most precious and scarce natural habitats: the tropical rainforest.” The company said as the trees matured and grew larger, so did profits. The website stated that "in the time it takes teak trees to grow from seedlings to maturity--after only 15 full years of growth--[the] asset's value will likely increase as many as ten times based on historical price trends." Investors would then benefit from that profit.Mark Baker, who lives in Tucson, said he and Fleming grew up together and their mothers were best friends. In 2010, he invested ,000 of his retirement money into Pacific Teak.“That money to me was going to be part of my legacy to help my grandkids go to school,” Baker said.In 2014, he said he invested another 0,000. To this day, he said he has not received any return on that investment. “I’ve had to make a plan B for my retirement,” Baker said.Team 10 spoke to at least six people who invested with Pacific Teak. Their teak tree purchase agreements show the investors paid anywhere from nearly ,000 to nearly 0,000 for a teak tree project in Costa Rica.“It was a green investment... they were planting and they were redeveloping land that had been the victim of slash and burn techniques by the locals,” said Greg Robertson, another investor who currently lives in Rome, Italy.Robertson met Fleming on a flight in the late 1990s. “That developed into a friendship,” he said.He invested nearly ,000 in the project. “This was a very green project. It was long term,” he said. “It was all positives.”It was positive at first, but Robertson said it changed as time went on. “No monthly letters or annual business account letters... nothing. Zero,” Robertson said. “It was unusual.”Michael Tillman said he put in more than ,000 with Pacific Teak in early 2009. He has not received any money on his investment.“It’s just the stress of trying to figure out where I’m going to recoup this money to send my daughter to school,” Tillman said.Tillman said investors were given teak forecasters, which showed how much trees gained in value over the years. “So, I’m looking at the low end which is ,000... and I’m thinking, that’ll cover maybe a semester or two,” he said.Tilllman said he started to sense something was wrong a couple years ago when they stopped hearing from Fleming. Tillman got in contact with other investors, like Baker and Robertson, and discovered many people had not received any return on investment. “I’m already stressed out because for so long, I thought that it was taken care of,” Tillman said.Team 10 reached Fleming via email. He said he “resigned himself from executive position in Pacific Management Group the later part of 2013 due to health issues.” He also said that he left prior to Hurricane Otto in 2016, which he alleged caused catastrophic damage to the project.”The investors said they were not aware of Fleming’s retirement in 2013, as he never communicated that to them. The investors also said they were not informed of any hurricane damage until after they questioned Fleming for updates.“I was devastated. I never thought it was part of his character,” Baker said.A spokesperson with the Department of Business Oversight—which is now the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation—said Fleming was not supposed to operate in California. The DBO issued a desist and refrain order in 2016. It said Pacific Teak and Pacific Management Group did not have the proper permit to be in business. In addition, the state found the company “misrepresented that investors would receive substantial profits.” It also found the company was in violation of the Corporate Securities Law. The state said Fleming and the company “misrepresented to investors this investment opportunity was low- risk.” Fleming never responded to Team 10’s follow up questions, only writing that he was “super busy” with his youngest daughter getting married.Fleming’s attorney contacted Team 10, telling me the “matter is complex and there are many unfounded rumors, along with misstatements, that have been circulating.“The fact is that Mr. Fleming has done nothing unethical in connection with his association with Pacific Management from which he resigned in 2013. I would request that you and your employer be very careful in what you publish in this matter,” wrote attorney Dominic Amorosa.He added in a separate email: "I am not sure whether you can find any investor in the United States who believes that an investment must necessarily be successful notwithstanding any foreseeable or unforeseeable events." The investors are still in disbelief about the turn of events and hope they will able to recoup some of their money. “He didn’t care about us at all, just about himself,” Robertson said.“He messed up so many lives. So many lives,” Baker added.Investors said they reported Fleming to the FBI. A spokesperson said they could not confirm or deny any investigation, but will take appropriate action if it is warranted. 5616

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - Keeping kids active, while also letting them follow their passion, is a top priority for a lot of parents.But often it comes at a cost. A new study from CompareCards.com shows that 46% of parents spend more than ,000 a year on activities for their kids, and 27% spend more than ,000. "As much as we love our kids as parents, and as much as we want them to pursue their dreams, life is expensive in 2019," says Matt Schulz, an Industry Analyst with CompareCards.com. "Parents are spending an awful lot of money to keep their kids in these activities."According to the study, 62% of parents admit they go into debt to pay for it all. 64% of parents say the costs cause them added stress.RELATED: Making It In San Diego: Community colleges offer free tuition to San Diego students"It's important to support your kids and teach them to follow their dreams," says Schulz. "But you also have to be able to do so without ruining your own dreams."One San Diego parent thinks she has a way to help. Jessica Mendez is trying to launch an online marketplace where parents can trade used sports equipment to help defray the costs."Every season, kids grow," says Mendez. "Every few months you have to purchase new cleats, a new bat to grow with them."Mendez has four boys that have been involved in all kinds of sports. As they've grown, old equipment has piled up in her garage. She thinks other parents have the same stockpiles of gear going to waste.RELATED: Making it in San Diego: State offers money to help boost college savings accountsMendez is hoping to let parents trade equipment with each other."We're hoping to start small and grow in the future with a website," she says. Mendez thinks she can have the site up in about a year. She's asking other parents with similar stockpiles of gear to contact her at jessicasdhomes@gmail.com.Meanwhile, CompareCards says parents can get creative to cut costs when it comes to activities. Some of their ideas include:- Having kids use YouTube or other online videos for tutorials instead of private lessons- Putting their kids in cheaper, non-elite and non-travel leagues (like YMCA or local recreation center leagues)- Having age-appropriate kids do extra work and pitch in to pay for registration- Saying "No" when too many activities start to pile up- Combining travel for club sports with the family vacationRELATED: Making it in San Diego: Millions available for local studentsShawanee White, a mother of three, says she's sold some of her daughter's old equipment and toys online to help pay for registration. She also asked other family members to chip in some money instead of buying toys for birthday or holiday gifts.White says her family spends -6,000 a year on registration, travel and all the other costs associated with extracurricular activities. But it's worth it."I want them to be well rounded and exposed to many opportunities," she says, adding that the activities keep her kids away from doing anything that may get them into trouble.The study also found that nearly 80% of parents believe their child's activities could one day lead to income, whether in the form of a scholarship, job or side-hustle.Schulz says it's also essential to involve your children in discussions about how their activities factor into the budget."It makes sense to be open and honest with your kids about the cost of these things," he says. 3411

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — If you’re still holding on to a mail-in ballot, return it using a method other than the U.S. Postal Service at this point.That’s the recommendation from many election experts after a ruling this week by the U.S. Supreme Court.In California, mail-in ballots have to be postmarked on or before November 3, but they can be received by county officials up to 17 days late and still count. That’s one of the most generous buffers of any state.But in about 30 states, the deadline for receipt is November 3. Ballots that arrive after will be tossed out, even ballots that were postmarked well before Election Day.The latest Supreme Court ruling dealt with a case out of Wisconsin, which had an Election Day deadline for ballot receipt set by state lawmakers.A lower federal court sided with the Democratic National Committee and ruled the deadline for receipt should be extended because of the pandemic. An analysis by the Wall Street Journal found it took an average of 10 days for a piece of first class mail to reach its destination in Wisconsin.But the Supreme Court ruled Monday 5-3 that state lawmakers should have the final say on this question, not the federal courts.“That could have tremendous implications across the country because it suggests that the Supreme Court is going to defer to even strict rules that could have the effect of limiting the counting of certain ballots,” said legal analyst Dan Eaton.Wisconsin is one of about 30 states with this deadline that ballots have to be received by Election Day, along with Pennsylvania and Michigan; two states with similar cases still pending.Voters in those states are being urged to drop off ballots at official collection sites, not at the post office, or vote in person.“This ruling does put pressure on people to make sure that their ballot is received in time,” Eaton said.Eaton said concurrence opinions by Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch offer clues about how the high court could rule in other election-legal fights, particularly when Amy Coney Barrett joins the court. He said it could have an impact on states with a lot of late voters and close races, not just in the presidential contest.“Remember that control of the Senate is very much in play and so this could matter in close Senate races,” Eaton said, citing races in Iowa, Colorado and North Carolina. 2365
