a green light to green lighting the continued indiscriminate killing of civilians and targeting of civilian areas like hospitals and schools and most recently a school bus full of yemeni children so it's truly a shameful decision and spain should rethink this and also other countries should step up to the plate and stop sending more weapons of mass starvation and mass destruction to saudi arabia. we need to see more concerted action going forward we do have we know that the trumpet ministration is planning to move forward billions of dollars worth of arms sales to saudi arabia and the united arab emirates we have seen a lot more action from congress a lot of interest in trying to stop those sales and that every bit of pressure does help it sends a strong signal to saudi arabia that support for this war is not unconditional and

the news hour up next it's one of one east. it's a scam that starts in the philippines and stretches across the globe. investors are promised the opportunity of a lifetime they all ideas they get you on the hook. but instead are left with shattered dreams and financial ruin the white i've tried my. i'm sick of saud and steve chow on this up sort of one on one east we reveal how organized crime is making millions in the philippines.

it's the business hub of the philippines where multinational corporations turn over millions in annual profits but the makati district of manila has a dark underbelly play some news making a fortune in dirty cash by trading fake shares. just a lot of surveillance report. in secrecy destroy them private investigators in cyber crime expert can gamble is in the final days of an operation to blow open an organized crime ring run by expect roots in the city. we want to document all the people that they're talking to whoever they have contact with to take photos of them we need to figure out who all the associated members of the syndicate lives. the fraudsters have gypped investors around the world as i selling them

shares the don't exist then stealing their money so who obvious goddess what are their nationalities. they're americans they come from. from new york area new jersey. for almost two years can gamble has been watching them he has the e-mails the bank account details and recordings of their voices he knows everything about them. so they have any idea that you're onto them not now and hear this tone that stays like that for a walk. oblivious to this covert attention the gang operates business as usual the scammers pretend to be from investment houses in america in real life they called manila. some have filipino wives and children into lived here for twenty years well a very clever at at what they do at the securities fraud but they're not very clever covering the tracks. the crime ring is about to be exposed because one of their own

his taking a courageous calls informant x. will call him is about to turn on his associates except they don't know it i meet him in a discreet location on the edge of manila. for your good first. informant x. is a man with friends an influence on both sides of the law. the little guy i'm a freak sort of that's what i do for these guys they have some problems they come to a try and accommodate it most of the time and we will do. better now informant takes is planning to help engineer the downfall of the organized crime gang he works fall and along the way he'll reveal to me the in a workings of an international fraud syndicate it begins with him secretly recording gang members discussing their cut of profits from the scam.

then his decision to inform on the gang takes an extraordinary new dimension so they see. what's in it hold people document the most damning evidence is here x. is uncovered a trove of hundreds of documents belonging to one of the fraudsters it exposes every aspect of a criminal operation evidence of transactions even the logs or whatever money comes even though the documents name the victims investors from the netherlands south africa hong kong singapore papua new guinea

new zealand and australia. wants to built the most where he got scammed for a whole lot of a mile or store windows and say what's his name when. far from the bustle of manila or the provincial center of rockhampton in the australian state of queensland. it's here i find. brown a hardworking coal mine electrician who should be enjoying financial rewards. right about homeowner going in that hole every day is hard work i don't see any family for four days at a seven. in only twenty five. cash what he believed was a new york based investment broker he thought he was buying shares. for.

what i do other ma don't want to keep doing with. my dish. and there are others on the title says. the. unwinds money pocketed the so called broker by the name of john paulson. didn't know it at the time but was not a licensed trader even his name was an alias in real life he was an american criminal living in manila. this is the frauds to talking recorded on brown's voicemail. by her charm. bracelet here because. jefferson or top rated as far as. how to her oh yes. so that's john polson john polson bring up there's no won the world or thought and he was wrong because. but our email it on

a seven or no reason to think it was a scam. the man who calls himself john polson is sticking to a script scammers like emus well proven psychological techniques to entrap the victims investigator can gamble has seen it all before they're required to get the investor on the hook so the very first calls they mike designed to get that potential investor to to make a small investment. there's the fear script to reassure nervous investors and one code you need to know who i am i'm going to make you very very rich you need to know who i am because on the man that's going to change your life and that of course you know are coming with someone who's very well spoken with an american accent that sounds like he's calling it a wall straight. then you know the the average person is going to believe that.

this when the john polson is stealing not only money but an identity there is a real john polson he's a successful multi billionaire investor and philanthropist from new york. but the imposter to those who know him is a thief and a thug he's a heavy drug use and. when you see him you think. i better get out of discourse face or else because it's one of those intimidating guys who say one role being something bad will happen to you. over the next few months sitting at his computer in manila the fake john polson works on his victim whine brown the astrologist persuaded to buy more bogus shares to the value of seven hundred thousand us dollars his portfolio apiece to do well there however is a legit gentleman. that old knowledge of the market any given you put forward to me

was a good price in the case of wind he. he was led to believe that these shares were valuable and that they went up in value and then that leads into another deal which is even more lucrative and so on and so on a lot of these guys have worked as brokers they have worked for my defense some of the biggest firms in the world and that come out of those firms and they've gone to the dark side. to bolster his image as a corporate heavyweight the pertain to john polson makes up another company name with a grand tied to the lease seem global partners its headquarters supposedly on wall street it's another lie concealed behind a fake website. so this is the police he web site correct let him go out of office oh i thought it was legitimate there's no reason for a way to do that they use this now because alyse him is the same name with a number of other organizations as well so again when you google the nine you

actually come up with all these legitimate companies then this scamming of australian wine brown steps up a notch after john polson hooks him into the scam and now the gang member takes over he's job to keep wind spending money polson was just the start of the the scam is that contacted me. john paul's disappeared probably twelve to eighteen months after i first started to to want. and then again. you know according he came on the scene. there is now a new broker in the picture going by the alias of daniel johnson but he too is an american criminal living in manila not the us. going. for nothing what. johnson calls constantly to pry more money from one brown.

that will never be bought shop interest you know he. had one i might be able to get their thoughts on. so tell me about this man. scrub a few blocks he will sell for more or he still probably a member of it also interests is there a certain arrogance about him you know does he think he's a big shot in the philippines. or only a certain murder he thinks rules the philippines it's like. well he's american he lives here with his wife and has children to her he's been in the philippines for years and he's probably one of the mind characters who. probably one of the logic parts in this for. the crime syndicates victims from around the world who are instructed to make payments to bank accounts in hong kong. for the money is

sent to the philippines and within a very short period of time on the money is usually taken out in cash here in the philippines by. like a bank account holders who have control of the accounts on behalf of the fraud gangs for the syndicates and the money is then loan and ultimately into cash. by now whine brown believes his portfolio is valued five million dollars and he wants to cash it in but there's a catch the scam is in manila tell him before he can sell he is he needs to pay us tax the tax money was granted i two hundred thousand u.s. dollars but i said i'd apply before you get that get this cash back from what. it once why i started to ask for the money that i have to constantly come up with new why explaining why they're not i would buy the money it's just an ongoing.

clever scheme to continue to j.p. and by slightly. continues why news passed on to yet another manila based american criminal again pretending to be on wall street he's an alias jeffrey cohen . different primary cause like every happen there is a cause it came out more i can't get all my funds jeffrey said you can apply the sponsor money for example and then we'll give you the funds we're going to release your funds to you. we shall mention twice for you change your whole deal the amount. is forty seven thousand dollars of carried up on finding. your body will be released. the scammers are trying to squeeze a final payment from wayne different area it was very hard to deal with it was very

full on. it all aside if you know how to do this tell me dale and the fossil to sit there while they would get on. with wine browns lost now tell you the one million dollars informant x. moves against the gang. when i saw. the ripple for this much awful sword for the guy i just restart can do something about it and i think the system our way of doing something about it. so inform a day excuse private investigator can gamble he's willing to hand over the suitcase of evidence and forensic d tower of the fraud against wayne brown the investigator is wearing gabble who spent years busting organized crime gangs in this region and has made many enemies. usually type what are the steps necessary to get rid of a person not made it's going to cause a lot of trouble to the city get an operation so heavy now can. one group actually

came to me and also to get rid of came to get rid of him if i have to kill and kill him you've done some pretty bad things haven't you already done a lot of bad things we regards to came when i saw what he was doing i just knew i couldn't get rid of him for the simple fact that he's helping out a lot of people in order to get very low spec in order what do you make of the fact that informant x. the man he's helping you now was once paid ninety thousand pesos to get rid of you it was certainly a strange feeling talking to the person who had been instructed to to get rid of me and it sort of reiterated my belief that there's a lot more good people in this world than there is bad. so you contacted whining to tell him he'd been scammed what was his reaction well he was pretty shocked. a little bit baffled it. what was going on but. he was

also related he had suspicions that something wasn't right he just didn't know what was going on he didn't know who to talk to. when brown high's private investigator can gamble to track the scammers and recover the money he's lost. or invested one point four million u.s. dollars with these blocks of sickening actually addresses that much money into my future and then to follow it out there wasn't any cash. it was real sitting. within five thousand kilometers away in manila the criminals are unaware of the victim knows he's been combed. the tables are about to be turned. i said first the first in washington thing to do is not to let on to them that you know being scammed because i'm going to have to use

you to continue to communicate with them together evidence that will be vital for the case. one keeps getting calls from the con man jeffrey cohen more appeals for him to pay money to free his share is one plays along with him my job there was a keep them on the hook. as i've been doing to me for the last three years i just want to turn the tiles keep them in a conversation i tell them i'm always going to give them the cash to formalize these deals. oh. gosh when are you. it's so hard talking to people that you know this ripped you off and you got to talk almost all just to keep them on the whole it's just so hard knowing that they're on the other so one. of the world wallace manila sin they're laughing at you. the fraudster jeffrey cohen is becoming disputes and aggressive to extract

a final payment from his victim. is giving him the runaround. you're going to want. to say oh you're going to do it you're fired within seventy two hours. or were the people being scope with a small amongst bigger moans. but they have no mercy have any syndicates do you think would be one of the one time. i would say this about sixty groups in the police. have a need to vigils. hundreds or. i would say that they would be tens of millions of dollars involved in these frauds we have fanned coal senna's that are rising money through securities fraud that have been directly linked to terrorist organizations in indonesia. after almost two years of investigation can gamble leaves ready to take his one thousand page brief

to the makati police chief so you know since you've done the detective work for them haven't you you both the brick people the case to them yes we've done more than just call it compliant we've done investigation we've gathered evidence would probably fall the suspects they are not skilled in financial problems particularly cross border crossings where where i bring where i bring expectations in the area across the border for and how it'll work. really oh you're. going to see the police will need time to assign their own investigators and conduct their own surveillance but the case against a syndicate of foreign criminals is compelling. and we have identified a number of persons of interest actual suspects involved in dealing with mr brown those three mine guards that actually dealt with him on the telephone. the mccarty police chief is convinced it's to see this case and i think it's time for us.

he says at the business district of the in the bins to take on the talents. will help. those ugly party to recover the money. not knowing the noose is tightening around them the crime group is still trying to draw more cash from wine brown he's paid them nothing for fifteen months but they persist in the manila police finalize their investigation. paranoid actually stop trying to rush action as we speak right now so or make a great sacrifice. on the wide but surely nobody published article. you don't expect your hard earned cash to be taken away from you or to sell my house. and i've also got a bank lot of it up my back which i've given a stable yard i need that money back so i can have the last all. in manila

a huge swath here from virginia really through the carolinas and again we're going to see the rain as the storm kind of stalls and and waits along the coastline here for quite some time there are recovery teams ready to move in ready to help out we've seen water rescues already in more continue but until this storm fully removed from the area it's going to be tough for a lot of those crews especially the power crews to get in and do the work that's necessary here that's the very latest right now here in carolina beach north carolina. well meteorologist rob mccallum he joins us now live here in the studio it's been downgraded to a category one but does that really make any practical difference rob in this case probably not if you remember what happened in puerto rico that was wind damage from a hurricane but usually when the koreans are the main down as this one is the wind is the least of anybody's worry in fact if you look now the circulation here you're

seeing is not really this do the wind the wind is certainly there we've got gusts about one hundred thirty odd kilometers per hour but this is rain and this is rain it's been circulating in the same place around the storm the storm which is effectively bringing the surface of the ocean up as well so you've got rain falling over land and the ocean itself being lifted up and ways so we're talking about water as being the main problem with a hurricane so even this category one if we look at the satellite picture which is the same sort of disk it's rain to look for six hundred thirty two millimeters of rain has fallen in the last eighteen to twenty hours or say a huge amount of rain and that's just the start of it this thing has even made landfall yet now the rain is spreading further south and it will maintain a moment we've seen back half that amount so the rain starting to move into this is fresh water problem this is going to be the longer term problem because as we go over land rate will be the big thing but near the coast because it's coming on land wind driven water and the surge itself i think at four meters would have caused

cover all low lying areas from the outer barrier right inland quite a long way because it's low lying ground and because it's slow moving now i've got the winds up here hundred fifty kilometers per hour so the recent wind damage we've got power cuts because of shortage cables down in wilmington at the moment that's why people were told to evaporate now for evacuate now in the next few hours they will be a proper landfall and then daunting around the border between north and south carolina that storm is slow moving hence the problem with rain we suspect the next day or so we've got it in the middle of south carolina and beyond that it probably go up towards virginia all the kentuckian border that's not all happening in the atlantic. in the pacific a category five typhoon which we're about to hear more about is a huge machine moving towards the philippines twenty four hours away thanks so much for a while communities in parts of southeast asia are bracing for the arrival of super

typhoon one coat which is gathering strength of the philippines thousands of people have been evacuated from coastal areas on luzon island the typhoon is expected to make landfall on saturday with wind speeds of up to two hundred forty kilometers an hour it's forecast to be the strongest of fifteen storms which the country this year. on the list they said this typhoon is twice as strong as the last one that's why we're terrified because we don't know what's going to happen to our houses. the kids might get sick and we should be evacuated now because i'm afraid of the floods . we still fear for our safety even though we're here at the church because the floods can reach here. dog and has the latest from the northern province of cargo yun. we can see that there have been preparations here being done and led by the local government with assistance from the national government there are national

officials here assuring everyone that everything is in place when it comes to preparation for advice when the cpu i am in one of the local elementary schools that have been turned into an evacuation center for those residents living in low lying areas and villages around the river here in calgary and thereabouts hundred families here the situation is all across. several areas in this go on and it is expected to make landfall early saturday morning but it depends really that the claims that the government is well prepared only be felt basically want to stifle ness been felt as you know even here in this evacuation center which is the intermittent rain there is already slight flooding but not everybody was willing to evacuated spoken to families and say that says some of their family members decided to stay behind to look after their castles in the after their farmland as you know this is all they have majority of the people here are dependent on farming for

their livelihood this is the waste this is the food baskets of the country and this is why i say the impact of the i phone is expected for many months to come so it's not just critical the emergency response here but also the assistance given to thousands of families who will surely be losing a little livelihood months later after this typhoon hit turkish military reinforcements of arrived on the country's border with syria in the province the military convoy consisting of tanks and vehicles follows a similar deployment on wednesday the observation point in the syrian town of murdoch and how much the position is close to the dividing line between opposition finances and government forces. prisoners in southern yemen have been targeted in the continuing bombardment of one day the central prison in a densely populated part of the city and the neighborhood of being bombed who threw rebels of control of the port for four years are under attack from the yemeni army

that's supported by the saudi and u.a.e. led coalition the u.n. says nine hundred thousand yemenis are in urgent need of food and ruth simmons joins us now live from djibouti so aid agencies very worried about the latest developments in the fighting what are you hearing andrew. well that's right that's fair about the situation is growing by the day the latest apart from that report you just mentioned the latest incident we know of is the reports of what seems like an ass strike around sixteen the main highway between. the capital of the rebel held capital and the data that strike according to the hootches killed fifteen civilians and injured twenty nine others now there are images we're going to get soon all of that we've seen them and

there is certainly it's straight after some sort of attack and there's people shouting and a lot of panic involved but this incident would appear to be by either ground fire or seemingly an ass strike that one that leads one to conclude that this is saudi u.n. he led coalition strike part of their offensive to cut off that whole route between the red sea ports and the capital now they say it's already being cut but there's still a lot of fighting going on the hoochie rebels have said that they have successfully mounted one attack on ground forces they're also saying that there are reports that there may be strikes on other installations around her data including food silos they say they're claiming that it is that is claiming that the coalition

believes that there are weapons stored in this area where the truth lies is hard to tell in the fog of war in this whole fighting and there is really more concern about the civilian deaths it would seem and also the pressure. on modern greece is the u.n. special envoy to come up with some sort of plan for dialogue he was last seen on talking to the delegation that should be delegation that should have been in geneva it is a difficult situation something man drew is there a feeling among society coalition of prosody forces sounded i should say forces that are there in bold and right now because the developments having around the date as well as the the u.s. and spanish stance toward supporting the coalition well i don't have firsthand knowledge of there in

a thinking on this but one would assume that yes bolden could be the right word perhaps keen to get on with the fighting and try to finish it would be another description but yes the failure of getting any dialogue going in geneva was seen as a green light the coalition's stated publicly in the yemeni government stated publicly that they were getting back to business as you might call it but others would seem that it shows you would but the yes there is really a push on right now and it would seem from reading going through the reports that the coalition does have the advantage and then of course we look at the whole chorus of protests from the international community mainly through n.g.o.s and also the u.n. that this will put the whole conflict into a much more dangerous phase where it isn't so much the fighting that's the problem it's supply is getting through to tucson and other area.
