Part XII of Cal Evans is a Scammer Series (https://www.dunsmoorlaw.com/category/calevansscammerseries/)
This post is large for a reason, its important but here is the TL;DR: Cal Evans, a documented scammer behind $180+ million in crypto fraud losses, has created a fake charity called the Gresham International Foundation (GIF). Despite claiming to help cyberbullying victims and fight crypto scams, the foundation is completely unregistered as a charity anywhere in the world (not in the UK, France, US, or anywhere else). Its website Terms of Service/Privacy Policy contain AI-generated nonsense including unfilled placeholders like “[Insert Contact Information]”. Evidence shows it’s just his unlicensed Crypto Poker Series gambling operation renamed as a “foundation” to solicit unregulated crypto donations with zero oversight or accountability.
The ultimate hypocrisy: Evans poses as an anti-cyberbullying crusader while court records show he’s the one committing fraud. He falsely told courts he was licensed in Wisconsin when he wasn’t, triggering a criminal investigation. He lied to police about being harassed. He even bragged in his own book about committing felony software piracy to pay for law school.
The Gresham International Foundation is Cal Evans’ latest con, a fake charity designed to launder his reputation and solicit money while pretending to fight the very crimes he commits.

Disclaimer: It is directed squarely at the bad actor behind the so-called Gresham International Foundation, Cal Evans himself, and ruthlessly exposes his hypocrisy and fraud with evidence of the absurd claim he is being cyberbullied and harassed. If you or someone you know is being harassed, cyberbullied, cyberstalked or anything like this please contact the police immediately.
Author’s Note: After years of unmasking Cal Evans’ lies, I am not the least bit surprised that he’s tried to reinvent himself yet again. This time as the figurehead of a phony “foundation.” What does surprise me is the sheer brazenness of this con. Evans is attempting to launder his tarnished reputation by wrapping himself in the cloak of a “nonprofit” championing cyberbullying victims and minority entrepreneurs. Don’t be fooled. The Gresham International Foundation (GIF) is nothing more than Evans’ latest scam. It’s an unregistered, unregulated, unabashed fraud. He is playing both arsonist and firefighter: orchestrating scams and then pretending to be an anti-scam crusader. This Part XII will detail how Cal Evans’ new foundation is as fake as everything else about him, complete with placeholder evidence that underscores each lie. Let’s dig in.
I. Gresham International Foundation: A New Fraud Disguised as Charity
Cal Evans has launched a website and initiative called the Gresham International Foundation, styling it as a charitable organization. Ostensibly, this “foundation” claims to “advocate for victims of cyberbullying, online harassment, and scams by providing resources, education, and, where possible, legal support.” This is clearly directed at me given he’s claimed I’m the one “cyberstalking” and “bullying” him:

This is despite Judge Melvin ruling against his absurd temporary restraining order and permanent injunction. More on that here: Part 4: A Real Lawyer vs a Glorified Paralegal – Cal Evans of Gresham International’s TRO and Injunction DENIED & Why This Case is Absurd; https://www.dunsmoorlaw.com/2025/09/part-4-a-real-lawyer-vs-a-glorified-paralegal-tro-and-injunction-denied-why-this-case-is-absurd/11/
He’s even tied it to glitzy events including illegal poker tournaments around the world and a “Charity Gala Dinner” hosted under the foundation’s name at a luxury hotel in Cannes during a family office summit, complete with black-tie trappings and talk of “glamour meets purpose.” On the surface, it sounds noble.
(Source: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/alansmithson_gfois-cyberbullying-greshamfoundation-activity-7376068007263002624-QczT) Mr. Smithson has been made aware of this situation and I am eagerly awaiting his response. All fathers make mistakes. Good ones admit it.
But peel back the PR, and the Gresham International Foundation (GIF) is a complete sham. It is not a legally registered nonprofit or charity in any jurisdiction that I can find. It has no legitimate incorporation or charitable status whatsoever.
1. Not in the UK where it claims to be governed, and presumably formed, under its ChatGPT Terms of Service/Privacy Policy:
2. Not in France where it held its unlawful gala:
(Source: https://www.instagram.com/mrcalevans/)
3. Not in the United States, where among other things Evans is being sued for fraud in Wyoming and most definitely going to have to answer to the Court’s contempt hearing on why he lied about his Wisconsin in-house counsel position when in reality he surrendered it to avoid Wisconsin’s Office of Lawyer Regulation:

(Source: Amended Complaint, July 24, 2025; https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/qkg5z72wunyaagcjlmug9/Exhibit-03-Amended-Complaint-July-24-2025-with-coversheet.pdf?rlkey=xap4wr3leyubk55lsnrixu5yr&st=k2s1ljtb&dl=0)
This “foundation” exists solely as a website and a vehicle for Evans to solicit money and sympathy under false pretenses. In reality, it’s the rebranded continuation of Evans’s prior dubious ventures. In fact, evidence shows that Evans simply re-skinned his unlicensed Crypto Poker Series gambling operation into this ‘foundation’ in 2025, using it to solicit “donations” in crypto. Both the poker scheme and this new foundation have never been registered with any regulator or charity commission that I can find and are fundraising fronts with zero oversight. Not a good look for a guy who once taught a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) for lawyers on Digital Asset Money Laundering:
(Source: Legal Ethics: Digital Asset Money Laundering, https://web.archive.org/web/20210422223305/https://stampede2020.sched.com/event/eMCT/legal-ethics-digital-asset-money-laundering)
Yes the truth is stranger than fiction.
To be clear: The Gresham International Foundation is not a charity, it’s the latest con from a self-confessed criminal:
(Source: The Little Book of Crypto: A No BS Introduction To Crypto by Cal Evans)
We will detail below how:
- It has no legitimate nonprofit registration in England and Wales (despite Evans’s UK ties)
- It has no registration or legal status in France, even as it hosted events on French soil
- It is not a U.S. 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(6) organization, nor even a registered entity in Wisconsin where Evans resides
- Its website’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy are laughably AI-generated, riddled with placeholders and legal nonsense, betraying the fact that no real lawyer was involved.
- Its so-called “educational blog” panders, plagiarizes content and mimics real due diligence articles (including some from my own publications under the Understanding Basic Due Diligence series) to falsely lend it credibility.
- And most hypocritically, Cal Evans is using this fake foundation to paint himself as a crusader against cyberbullying. He is trying to portray himself as the victim while court records, police reports, and regulatory findings abundantly identify him as the perpetrator of fraud and harassment.
Let’s break down each of these points with evidence.
II. No Legitimate Registration in England & Wales: A “Foundation” with No Foundation
Evans’ home country is the United Kingdom, so one might expect that a legitimate Gresham International Foundation would be duly registered as a nonprofit or charity in England and Wales. Yet no such entity exists in the UK’s Charity Commission or companies registry. A search for any registered charity or nonprofit under the name “Gresham International Foundation” in the United Kingdom (which per the UK Company House website would cover England and Wales) yields nothing:
Could it be pending? We shall see but I know Evans the reason is simple is: Evans has not even bothered to register this so-called foundation in the jurisdiction he actively promotes on LinkedIn as coming from:
(Source: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/mrcalevans; note the follower count is nearly all fake given the amount of engagement on his posts. Everything he claims to be is bought and paid for smoke and mirrors.)
This omission is glaring because Evans markets GIF’s activities as though it were a proper UK-based foundation. The Terms & Conditions on the foundation’s site even claim “these terms are governed by the laws of the United Kingdom, England and Wales,” as if the organization were subject to UK charity law.
However, this is pure fiction. Evans is trying to confer legitimacy by invoking UK law, while sidestepping the actual legal requirement of registering a nonprofit. In fact, the Terms of Use themselves show signs of AI slop that undermine any claim of real legal vetting, especially from a so-called “international lawyer.” For example, they literally left a placeholder in the privacy policy saying “contact us at [Insert Contact Information]” instead of providing a contact address. Pretty bad for someone who is supposed to be registered with the UK Information Commissioners Office and Gibraltar Regulatory Authority for data. (https://gresham-international.gitbook.io/gresham-international-website-documents/regulator-information and, bottom logo, https://www.gresham-international.com/)
A legitimate UK charity would know its contact information and regulatory obligations; Evans’ outfit plainly does not.
In short, GIF is not recognized in England and Wales in any capacity. It’s nothing more than a name on a website, a LinkedIn page and Instagram (presumably because he’s been chased off every other platform)
Evans’ failure to obtain even the most basic charitable registration at home speaks volumes about the foundation’s fraudulent nature. He knows it would never pass muster with UK regulators, so he didn’t even try. Instead, he’s banking on public ignorance and the veneer of a .org website to pass this off as a real foundation.
III. Absence of French Registration: The Cannes Charade
Despite appearing to not be registered anywhere, the Gresham International Foundation has been promoted at high-profile events in France, most notably at the Global Family Office Investment Summit in Cannes (September 2025). Hosted by the same Anthony Ritossa who Evans not only disavowed earlier this year and stepped away from as “Master of Ceremonies” but also who has their own Vanity Fair piece about their storied history of deception.
(Source: “Sir” Anthony Ritossa’s Comeback: Who’s really behind it?, https://www.opalesque.com/707634/Anthony_Comeback_really_behind763.html and From the Magazine Inside Wealth-Conference Con Man Anthony Ritossa’s Wild Web of Lies, https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2022/10/inside-wealth-conference-con-man-anthony-ritossas-wild-web-of-lies)
As mentioned, the summit’s agenda touted an “Official Charity Gala Dinner hosted by the Gresham International Foundation” on September 22, 2025 (Note that this was back February when he quit and publicly bashed Ritossa). Attendees and sponsors were led to believe this was a bona fide charitable gala supporting a meaningful cause. This is a dangerous deception: soliciting funds or sponsorships under the guise of a charity without actually being a registered charity is fraudulent.
I’m not a French lawyer but those I spoke with said fundraising in France as a nonprofit typically requires registration or at least a declaration for an association. Yet the Gresham International Foundation appears not to be registered in France in any corporate, nonprofit, or foundation capacity. There is no evidence of any “Fondation Gresham International” in the official records.
Sources:
https://www.journal-officiel.gouv.fr/pages/associations
The Cannes gala was essentially a con job. Evans used the cachet of the conference and a luxury venue to lend credibility to his fake foundation. Participants were likely given the impression that their donations or tickets were going to a lawful charitable entity. In reality, any money that changed hands went straight into Evans’ pocket via an unaccountable, unregulated channel.
Note there is no French registration or approval for Evans’s foundation [INSERT SCREENSHOT: French registry check no results]. This further underscores that Evans operated the gala under false pretenses. Hosting events as an “official charity” when you have no legal charity status is not just unethical, it’s potentially criminal under fraud and solicitation laws in France. And given Evans’s history, it fits a pattern: using glitz and glamour to paper over lies and line his own pockets.
IV. No U.S. Nonprofit Status or Wisconsin Registration: A Ghost Organization Stateside
Cal Evans resides in Wisconsin, USA (by his own admission, Wisconsin has been his home since 2020). One might think he would legitimize his foundation in the U.S. if he were serious and perhaps register it as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization or a 501(c)(6) trade association, or at minimum incorporate it as a nonprofit entity in some state. He has not.
There is no record of “Gresham International Foundation” as a recognized nonprofit in the United States, nor as a corporation or charity in Wisconsin. A search of the IRS’s database for 501(c) organizations yields no hits for Gresham International Foundation:
(Source: https://apps.irs.gov/app/eos/, Date of screenshot search: September 26, 2025)
Likewise, the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions shows no registered entity by that name:
(Source: https://apps.dfi.wi.gov/ice/berg/Registration/OrgCredentialSearchResults.aspx?CredentialType=800&LicenseNumber=&FirmName=Gresham+International+Foundation, Date of screenshot search: September 26, 2025)
Evans has scrupulously avoided the oversight that comes with U.S. nonprofit status, such as filing Form 990s or revealing financials, presumably because he has no intention of actually operating a charitable enterprise. After all, the CryptoPokerSeries.com doesn’t look like it has a gaming license anywhere in the world. After all, it seems to have the same boilerplate, AI-generated Terms of Service as the Gresham International Foundation Privacy Policy. (See https://www.thecryptopokerseries.com/_files/ugd/d70d11_67568370a16942c98d3d587976c74be0.pdf)
(Source: https://www.thecryptopokerseries.com/play, Date of screenshot search: September 26, 2025)
The only references to any legal formality are misleading. On the Gresham International (for-profit) website, a blurb now invites people to “give back” by checking out the foundation, with a curious note: “Services Subject to Terms and Engagement – Not a U.S. Based [organization].” (https://www.gresham-international.com/) In other words, Evans explicitly notes the foundation is “not U.S. based” – likely an attempt to dodge U.S. jurisdiction. He wants U.S. money (donations, event sponsorships) but doesn’t want to be accountable under U.S. law. Instead, he hides behind vague international status and that flimsy UK law reference.
The bottom line is Gresham International Foundation has no legal existence in the U.S. It is not a tax-exempt organization, and donors cannot even get the benefit of tax deductions (not that he likely discloses that). If Evans truly cared about a cause or building a real nonprofit, he would at least make it a legal entity. He hasn’t, because the cause is just a cover story. The foundation is structurally a ghost. A fraudulent façade meant to lull people into opening their wallets without the protections of any jurisdiction’s laws.
V. AI-Generated “Privacy Policy”: Legal Nonsense as Window Dressing
If you want more proof that the Gresham International Foundation is not a serious or legitimate organization (other than looking at the so-called “beta” website), look no further than its website Terms of Use/Privacy Policy. They read as if someone told ChatGPT to “generate a generic terms and privacy policy,” copied the output, and never even proof-read it. In fact, I’d wager that is exactly what happened.
Consider the Privacy Policy effective March 2025 on the foundation’s site. It contains a placeholder that was never filled in: “To exercise your rights, contact us at [Insert Contact Information].” That’s right! The supposed official policy literally says “Insert Contact Information” in brackets.
No real lawyer (or even semi-competent human) would leave a template placeholder in a live policy. This is a hallmark of AI-generated or cookie-cutter terms that were slapped onto the site purely for show. It’s legally incoherent and non-binding, because, among other issues, it fails to identify how a user can actually contact the foundation to exercise rights. (Perhaps because there is no proper contact! After all, there’s no real organization behind the site!)
The Privacy Policy page is equally comical. It declares itself governed by “the laws of the United Kingdom, England and Wales” which is a nonsensical phrase (the UK consists of multiple jurisdictions; England and Wales is one of them. Any lawyer would phrase that as “the laws of England and Wales” alone.
It also insists that any disputes will be resolved in the courts of England and Wales, which would be quite a trick given that Evans and his targets are mostly in the U.S. and elsewhere. This is boilerplate text that Evans likely didn’t even fully understand. It was tossed in to make the site look legitimate, but it achieves the opposite: it underscores the amateurish and deceptive nature of the whole operation.
To sum up: the foundation’s terms are a joke. They provide none of the legal assurances a genuine nonprofit would offer to donors or users. In fact, they slyly contain a broad limitation of liability and “as-is” disclaimer that basically says if you suffer any losses by using the site or giving money, Gresham International Foundation isn’t responsible. How fitting for Cal Evans’s fake charity to essentially warn you “if this turns out to be a scam, that’s on you.” The incoherence and generic nature of these terms of use prove that no real regulatory or legal compliance is happening behind the scenes. This foundation is a legal mirage.
VI. Plagiarism and Mimicry: A Fake Blog to Match the Crypto Con Lawyer
In a classic Cal Evans move, the Gresham International Foundation’s website comes complete with a “blog” full of supposedly educational articles. This is clearly an attempt to mimic the kind of informative content one might expect from a legitimate foundation or my actual work. In reality, much of this content appears to be plagiarized or repackaged from other sources including my own articles on due diligence and scam prevention.
For example, I published an article on November 22, 2024 as part of our Understanding Basic Due Diligence series, exposing how Evans himself posed under a fake name “Adrian Barkley” to dupe CryptoDaily reads while bashing the lawyer suing him in Wyoming and before that exposing his now defunct scam Viking Fehu (See Understanding Basic Due Diligence: CryptoDaily’s ‘Adrian Barkley’ Exposed as Cal Evans of Gresham International, https://www.dunsmoorlaw.com/2024/11/understanding-basic-due-diligence-cryptodailys-adrian-barkley-exposed-as-cal-evans-of-gresham-international/22/ and Understanding Basic Due Diligence: Protecting Yourself from ICO Scams like Cal Evans’ Viking Fehu, https://www.dunsmoorlaw.com/2024/10/understanding-basic-due-diligence-protecting-yourself-from-ico-scams-like-cal-evans-viking-fehu/15/.
These articles were guides on how basic diligence can unmask fraudsters. Lo and behold, on the foundation’s blog, Evans has an April 2025 post titled “How to Stop a Fake Crypto Project During an Initial Sale: A Guide to Due Diligence and Action.” The title and subject are a blatant riff on my work! Essentially Evans copied the playbook of genuine due diligence experts to make himself look like one. Given his history of intellectual property theft (as seen above), it wouldn’t surprise me if large portions of the text are lifted or paraphrased from real due diligence guides.
Other blog entries include “Why Women in Blockchain Matter: Shaping a More Inclusive Future for Web3” and “Facing the Storm: How Adults Can Manage and Respond to Cyberbullying.” The themes are painfully contrived: one pandering to diversity and the other ironically offering advice on handling cyberbullying (the irony being that Evans is the cyberbully in this story). The writing in these posts has the telltale generic tone of AI-generation or copy-paste jobs meant to pad out the site. And of course, all posts are credited to Cal Evans himself, as if he’s now some thought leader in Web3 safety and inclusion. This is the same man who created unsafe conditions in Web3 through fraudulent legal opinions and scam projects.

Now he writes blog posts about stopping fake crypto projects? The hypocrisy would be hilarious if it weren’t so brazen.

VII. Playing the Victim: Evans’ False Narrative vs. The Evidence
Perhaps the most infuriating aspect of Cal Evans’s “Gresham International Foundation” con is his attempt to flip the narrative and cast himself as a victim of harassment and cyberbullying when there are real victims out there including some that have taken their own lives. According to Evans, he and his team are being “harassed” by me (Jonathan Dunsmoor) and others who have called out his fraud. He even set up a special page on Gresham’s website accusing me of “ongoing harassment activities” and claiming he’s working with law enforcement and bar associations to address “unlawful actions.” The foundation’s supposed mission of aiding cyberbullying victims is a transparent attempt by Evans to claim the moral high ground by painting himself as a champion for those who are bullied online, when in reality he just doesn’t like being exposed as a fraud.
Let’s be perfectly clear: Cal Evans is not a victim of cyberbullying; Cal Evans is a perpetrator of fraud who is facing justified exposure and legal consequences. The records could not be more clear on this point. Consider the following evidence, all public and documented:
- Mounting Court Records: Evans’ own court filings show his duplicity. For instance, in a Wyoming case (the Aubit/Freeway crypto fraud case), Evans swore in a June 4, 2024 declaration that he was still a registered in-house counsel in Wisconsin, even though he had surrendered that status on May 16, 2024. This lie was used to try to avoid jurisdiction. Wisconsin’s Office of Lawyer Regulation (OLR) saw the con and, on June 10, 2024, referred Evans for criminal investigation for the unlicensed practice among other misconduct. In other words, Evans’s own false statement in court triggered a criminal referral. Hardly the profile of a “victim.”
- Regulatory Decisions: Evans has possibly unintentionally condemned or at least formally scrutinized by regulatory bodies. In Dubai, the DIFC Courts’ Registrar issued a public Code of Conduct Decision on January 17, 2025, following my complaint about Evans and Gresham International’s unlicensed legal practice and misrepresentations. Although the DIFC ultimately dismissed the complaint on jurisdictional grounds, the decision publicly documented the serious allegations and confirmed the lack of authority behind Evans’ claims. Notably, the registrar’s decision highlighted that Gresham International (the firm) had been registered at one point, but Evans himself was not individually authorized. This underscores that Evans’s personal claims of being “licensed in the DIFC” were false including on his LinkedIn right now (insert link). Furthermore, the DIFC’s registry confirmed twice in writing (on May 28, 2025 and again on August 4, 2025) that neither Callum “Cal” Evans nor Gresham International is currently registered as a legal practitioner in the DIFC Courts’ registry. Evans has been relentlessly lying about holding a Dubai license, and the regulators have effectively said “No, you are not licensed here” in black and white. So much for his credibility.
- Police Interactions: Evans’s claim of being “victimized” by harassment falls flat when looking at actual police records. Consider the Muskego Police Department incident from March 20, 2024. Evans walked into the Muskego, Wisconsin police station to complain that he was being harassed online (presumably by my truthful reporting). The police took down his complaint. And what did the police do after investigating? They concluded the matter was civil, not criminal, and no action was taken. The official Roll Call Summary states: “Evans came into the station to report he was being harassed online… Investigation revealed the matter was civil, both parties were advised.” No one was “warned” or cited, despite Evans later falsely swearing otherwise. In fact, when Evans filed his defamation suit against me in July 2025, he lied in his Amended Complaint by stating “the Muskego Police contacted Dunsmoor and warned him to cease his harassing online activities.” That was a complete fabrication. The police report contains zero indication of any warning to me; it actually supports that I had done nothing actionable. Evans and his attorney eventually had to drop this false claim in subsequent filings, effectively conceding it was made up. So here we have Evans trying to weaponize the police to bolster his victim narrative, getting caught in a lie about it, and yet he has the audacity to cry “harassment” when he is the one lying to courts and law enforcement. The Muskego police incident is proof that Evans’ claims of being “cyberbullied” are theatrics and when tested, they evaporate.
- Admissions of Fraudulent or Criminal Behavior: Lest anyone still thinks Cal Evans is a poor innocent being picked on, remember that Evans literally brags about committing crimes when it suits his ego. In his own self-published book, “The Little Book of Crypto,” Evans admitted that he engaged in felony-level software piracy (bootlegging copies of Microsoft Windows) and made so much money doing it that he paid a “substantial part” of his law school tuition with the proceeds. This is a self-confessed crime. If he disclosed it during his U.S. naturalization, he likely wouldn’t have been allowed to become a citizen; if he didn’t disclose it, then he lied on immigration forms and that itself is a crime. Either way, it’s another example of Evans’s disregard for the law. A man who boasts about piracy and calls it “no BS” funding is now posturing as a benevolent foundation leader? Give me a break. His book excerpt (which we have on file as Exhibit 14) outright confirms his criminal mindset.
Given this mountain of evidence, court filings showing perjury, regulators confirming his lack of license, police reports debunking his false accusations, and his own admissions of wrongdoing, Cal Evans’ attempt to portray himself as a victim of harassment is not just laughable, it’s deeply offensive. It’s an insult to real victims of cyberbullying and harassment. He is co-opting the language of victimhood to shield himself from accountability. This is the same tactic used by con artists and abusers throughout history: cry that you’re being attacked when in fact the truth is simply catching up to you.
The Gresham International Foundation is the ultimate vehicle for Evans’ hypocrisy. He positions it as an organization to combat online harassment (something he claims to suffer) and crypto scams. Yet Evans himself is an online harasser (of whistleblowers) and a facilitator of crypto scams and false DMCA complaints. The foundation’s mission statement might as well be describing the harm Evans has caused: countless investors defrauded in schemes (GIZA, Freeway, Ardana – over $180 million in losses combined) that were green-lit by Evans’s fraudulent legal opinions. The “resources and education” the foundation purports to offer are a cheap imitation of the warnings that my team and I have been giving the public about Evans himself.
In sum, Cal Evans’ sob story of being cyberbullied is not only a farce but it’s offensive to anyone who has been cyberbullied or stalked. The reality is he is a fraudster exposed by court records, flagged by regulators, and even noted by police. All of which he’s desperately trying to spin into a narrative where he’s the martyr. Don’t buy it. The evidence overwhelmingly identifies him as the wrongdoer, not the victim.
VIII. Conclusion: A Foundation Built on Lies
The Gresham International Foundation is nothing more than Cal Evans’s newest con job. It’s a Potemkin village of a nonprofit meant to gull the unwary. It has no registrations, no real governance, and no genuine charitable activity. Its website content is plagiarized and auto-generated, its legal policies are a joke, and its public narrative is a 180-degree inversion of the truth. Evans is using the veneer of a foundation to prop up his crumbling persona, solicit money (likely in crypto to avoid traceability), and counter the well-founded accusations against him by pretending to do “good work.”
We have shown:
- GIF is unregistered and unlawful in every jurisdiction it touches.
- Evans lies about its legitimacy (and his own credentials) continuously, as evidenced by official confirmations from Dubai and the absence of any filings in the UK, France, or the US.
- The Terms/Privacy Policy and content on the GIF site underscore its fraudulent nature. There is no real organization would operate in such a slipshod, deceptive manner.
- Evans’ attempt to cast himself as a victim and anti-harassment advocate is utterly contradicted by the factual record: he is a proven scammer, perjurer, and (self-admitted) criminal operator.
Cal Evans has proven, yet again, that he will stoop to any level including but not limited to even exploiting the language of charity and cyberbullying to advance his con. But dressing up as a philanthropist doesn’t change the facts. A wolf in sheep’s clothing is still a wolf. The Gresham International Foundation is a fraud in sheep’s clothing, and we are pulling off that fleece.
To anyone who has been approached to donate to or collaborate with the Gresham International Foundation: beware. Until Evans can show audited financials, government registrations, and a board that isn’t just him and his cronies, assume that any money funneled into this “foundation” is headed straight into the pockets of a scammer. The only “cause” it truly serves is the cause of Cal Evans’s ego and bank account.
The hypocrisy would be almost amusing if it weren’t so dangerous to the public. Thankfully, the truth is well-documented and will continue to come out, piece by piece, in courtrooms and law enforcement reports. As it does, Evans’ fake foundation, like his fake lawyering and fake accolades, will be shown to the light.
Cal Evans is a scammer, and the Gresham International Foundation is his latest scam.
