Ed May is THE crook in this case, not Frank Bluestein. Ed May created these phony projects, not Frank Bluestein, who also invested significant amounts of his own money and lost, too. I invested in several of these projects and Ed May pulled the plug, cancelled the bank accounts and issued checks that were completely rubber! Ed May must be so far in debt and up to his ears in commitments to his cohorts in Las Vegas that, if they ever catch up to him, he may become another Jimmy Hoffa. If he is such a good, honest, hard working man, why would he have created this completely illegal and fraudulent scheme? How anyone involved in these projects could have anything positive to say about Ed May is beyond my comprehension. I am involved with several other positive investments via Frank Bluestein and Maximum Financial Group and they are all turning profits for me and I am pleased. This has been a nightmare, but I do not blame Frank Bluestein, and neither should you.

An Ed May Victim

Thank you Rob for doing this report! Us victims appreciate it!

NO, are you a relative of Ed or are you Ed? Why did you create another business to hide our money back in July, right when all the projects went south and the Ponzi Scheme was discovered? Yes, we know about the new business that was quietly created to shelter money just prior to filing for bankruptcy...coincidence...I don't think so! I do agree with EdnFrankToPrison on one point...Ed's ENTIRE family are crooked and they ALL should be behind bars!

You're right...Ed was involved with McLain...and if Ed May's investors are making SO much money (onebigfan), then Ed must be, too! Then, why would he have to file for bankruptcy and why would he attempt to hide his resources if he wasn't guilty?

Ya think...

Ed May created the scenario. It is true, Ed lost his law license around 1971. He is also the person who took Denny McClain (no Saint either) and other Tigers in 1968 for about $450k. This is the same Ed that flew to Japan with his office girl when things got real hot after the Tigers issue, law license and I'm sure others issues. Ed and his son Jeff also have failed businesses in Las Vegas with questionable people. Ed left a blood trail and should be hung out to try.

Frank Bluestein and his wife Mona charged investors the Fast Frank, Inc. fees to manage/process the paperwork. (Note: Most checks written to FF, Inc. where stamped for deposit to Frank Bluestein; a minor banking violation.) Frank and Ramona went to see the Las Vegas principles in Jan/Fed of 2007 to validate the deals. The fact is they did not manage the account or for that matter our investments. When it comes to FF, Inc. Frank will tell you to stay away from Charles G the 'real' owner of FF, Inc. as he will "take your house". All that said, even though Frank indicated he is no longer in the game, then why did he and Mona Bluestein create a new company. The web page of his new business contains client testimonials including one from a R. Smith. Might R. Smith be Ramona Bluestein's maiden name? Lets not overlook Gary Young, (that is right - Gary from Max. Financial who was released by GunnAllen) one of the principals who refers to Frank Julian as "the Doc". Yes, that is right, Frank is now know as Frank Julian in his new business. If you are wondering was that Gary Young, Tom Solomon, Fr

You're wrong. If you were a client with Frank, and you had Ed Mays, you lost money with Ed AND Frank. Frank is not an innocent party, and it saddens me that you have Frank on a high horse.

Since we were investors in the program as well as my mother who is 80 yrs old, and all the name calling and blame throwing can't help...who do we contact for help? Who are the attorneys involved and which is the one we should be talking to?

Rob, i have lost money with 'brilliant' investors guys before. I'm glad you put this creep on tv and exposed him. What a crock that stuff about him reading the wall street journal as a kid. Sounds like a bs story coming from a guy full of it. You rock.

It sounds to me like Ed May has been a crook for a long time. Too bad Frank didn't check him out before we all invested. For that Frank holds some blame. I have other investments with Frank and Max Financial and they are doing good. What's this about a new company? I'd like to check out the web page any know the web address?

The investments I lost on were legitimate, just lousy so there was nothing I could do. but just like the Frank guy, my investment pro sure didn't seem too bothered by the fact that I lost thousands of bucks on his crappy advice. I just looked at rob's story again and can't believe how arrogant and smug this Bluestien looks waving to the camera. Plus, I love his line 'i'm a victim too.' If he'd have done the job he was supposed to and researched the investments he wouldn't have recommended a bad deal. Why would Vegas casinos need investors for their phone systems anyway? Don't they do pretty well? this guy had to know they were fake,don't cha think?
