Florida Orlando Ponzi Scheme Sues New Zealand Journalist, $150,000 Bribe Attempt

A large Ponzi scheme that has collected between $300 million and $500 million from investors across Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ontario, Canada, was exposed by me.

I’ve filed a 22‑page Motion to Dismiss, this should prove that Goliath Ventures Ponzi Scheme had no legal standing to sue me, a New Zealand based journalist, in a Florida court.

Goliath Ventures has raised hundreds of millions of dollars from the public without any legal authority to sell securities or solicit investments. The company appears to be using these illegally obtained funds not only to pursue lawsuits against critics like me, but also to make political donations and buy access to high-profile figures. Christopher Delgado and his associates have leveraged these funds to align themselves with influential names such as Mike Johnson, Ron DeSantis, Donald Trump, and Eric Trump, using photo opportunities and staged events to project legitimacy and influence.

*IN THIS INVESTIGATION*:

How *GOLIATH VENTURES INC* shut down its Florida entity in September 2025 and re-registered in Wyoming to dodge accountability.

How their lawyers filed subpoenas to obtain my private data from OpenAI and X (formerly Twitter) — a textbook intimidation tactic.

The shocking $150,000 Bitcoin bribe offer they tried to pass off as a “settlement.”

The truth about my 22-page Motion to Dismiss, exposing the lack of jurisdiction, false service, and abuse of process.

Why I’m standing up for free speech, truth, and transparency — even without legal counsel.

This case echoes my previous victory in McCullah v De Hek [2023] NZHC 2230, where another U.S. entrepreneur tried to silence my reporting with a vexatious defamation suit. The New Zealand High Court dismissed that case as an abuse of process and awarded costs, recognising it as a classic SLAPP lawsuit.

Now, GOLIATH VENTURES INC is using the same playbook — hiding behind lawyers, fake filings, and intimidation. But the facts are public, and the evidence is clear.

This is more than one journalist being sued. It’s a fight against the corruption of justice itself. If a company can raise hundreds of millions from investors without regulatory oversight, funnel it into political donations, and then use those funds to silence critics — it’s not just a Ponzi scheme, it’s an assault on democracy and truth.

Every time a journalist is targeted, every time a whistle-blower is threatened, it chips away at the freedom to expose fraud and protect ordinary people from financial predators. That’s why this battle matters.

Watch as I expose Christopher Delgado, Oliver Birman, and GOLIATH VENTURES INC for their coordinated attempt to silence me — and why I refuse to back down.
