When Investigating An Adversary, Be Wary Of Forged Records

Warnings against the use of investigators who tout their ability to find an adversary’s private documents generally emphasize the risk of illegal activity and attorney discipline, but a string of recent cases shows an additional danger — investigators might be fabricating records altogether, says Brian Asher at Asher Research.

We will need to work with both Senator's Schumer and Gillibrand forward. 

It seems the NYPD should not be under the current Mayor given fraud, kleptocracy and crimes against the United States of America.

Meanwhile, there are several FOIL requests the NYPD is ignoring such as for body camera and 911 call transcripts. 

It is difficult to trust the NYPD under the current Mayor. 

xNY.io - Bank.org asks the NYPD to seek the Mayor's immediate resignation given lack of insurance. 

Please respond with proof of NYPD D&O coverage immediately. Failure to provide proof of NYPD D&O insurance information will put the NYPD in jeopardy of insolvency. 

Thank you,

Dear Honorable Senator Schumer:

Tonight, xNY.io - Bank.org seeks to make history with the current Senator Majority Leader. 

Senator Schumer, the Mayor of New York City did not voluntarily and timely self-disclose to xNY.io - Bank.org the conduct described in the NYCCoin Statement of Facts below. 

We summarize Mayor Adams' conduct as potential conspiracy to 
commit offenses against the United States of America. 

Senator, it appears the City of New York has committed to continuing to enhance its compliance programs and internal controls, including ensuring that its compliance programs satisfy the minimum elements to combat public corruption. 

Mr. Schumer, we have reason to believe that Mr. Adams is involved in a conspiracy to commit crimes against the United States of America (for example, with NYCCOIN). 

xNY.io - Bank.org aims to learn if your office is an appropriate, outside party acting on behalf of New York State in foreign jurisdictions, including, but not limited to, being an agent and/or intermediary consultant, representative, distributor,  teaming partner, contractor supplier, and/or joint venture partner (collectively, “agent and/or business partners”) to Eric Adams' administration.

Senator, xNY.io - Bank.org seeks to learn if your office received NYCCoin related:

a. gifts; 
b. hospitality, entertainment, and leisure; 
c. customer travel;
d. political contributions; 
e. charitable donations and sponsorships; 
f. facilitation payments; and 
g. solicitation and extortion

Related to items e,f,g I am personally interested in learning your involvement. 

Warm regards,

Gunnar

How many emails will it take?

Has the IAB, ever heard of Gunnar Donald Arthur Peter Larson before. 

I need to sue Senator Gillibrand just to find records on the Governor!

Re: Mayor Eric Adams NYCCoin Touting  

Dear Ms. Joseph Varlack:

Today’s memo is to kindly submit xNY.io - Bank.org's inquiry into Mayor Eric Adams' promotion of NYCCoin.


  1. The federal securities laws are clear that any celebrity or individual who promotes digital assets must disclose the nature, source and amount of compensation they received in exchange for the promotion.

  2. As a matter of ethics, risk and compliance associated with digital asset innovation, xNY.io asks if NYCCoin promotion by the Mayor of New York City damaged the market for the xNY digital asset (by, for example, devaluing it through parody or sealed via embossed criticism).

  3. xNY.io - Bank.org concerns made above have evidentiary support to interlocking director and officer conflicts recognized by the Department of Justice as potential threats that stifle individual and corporate freedom.


Ms. Joseph Varlack, as a matter relating to working at one of the world's most ethical companies, famous for risk management and corporate governance, and as an internationally recognized Blockchain Scholar, I must adhere to federal securities laws. 


  • As such, I classify Mayor Adams as an individual who promoted the digital asset NYCCoin and must disclose the nature, scope, and amount of compensation associated.


A failure to disclose this information may violate the anti-touting provisions of the federal securities laws. Mayor Adams' making these endorsements may also be liable for potential violations of the anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities laws, for participating in an unregistered offer and sale of securities, and for acting as unregistered brokers.


xNY.io - Bank.org respectfully requests the Office of the Mayor of New York City to respond to this request by Wednesday March, 15 2023 by Noon EST. 


Respectfully yours with appreciation,
