Part XIV of Cal Evans is a Scammer Series: https://www.dunsmoorlaw.com/category/calevansscammerseries/

Preface: There should only be about 5 more articles of this series: (1) The Nuke, (2) The Fallout, (3) The Disbarments, (4) The Arrests, and (5) The End. Thank you all for reading along and sharing in this absurdity. I reasonably believe this is going to make a compelling documentary and hopefully help a lot of people avoid these frauds as we put more and more data on chain.

Every time I receive a notification that this scammer is attempting to rehabilitate his fraudulent image, I will expose what a fraud he really is, publicly. I uncovered his scam, and it’s my obligation to ensure he ends up behind bars where he belongs and never scams again.

The best part? Whoever Evans paid to publish these pieces linked to a Medium account that’s already been removed for violations. Its a real professional operation.

I. Evans Lectures the World on UK Companies House Compliance

In early November 2025, this fool posted on LinkedIn about the UK’s new Companies House ID verification requirements, positioning himself as the compliance expert who helps clients, claiming: “If you need support with understanding these changes or structuring your entities correctly, our team is here to assist.”

Let’s see about that….

(Source: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/mrcalevans, LinkedIn post screenshot, November 2025)

II. What Evans’ Own Companies House Filings Actually Show

Let’s see how this compliance guru handles his own UK corporate obligations, shall we?

1. The Mail Forwarding Scam Address

Evans lists Gresham International’s registered office as “71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ”.

(Source: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10320334)

This address is a glorified mail forwarding service with over 150,000 matches in the UK Companies House Directory. (See https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/advanced-search/get-results?companyNameIncludes=&companyNameExcludes=&registeredOfficeAddress=71-75+Shelton+Street%2C+London%2C+United+Kingdom%2C+WC2H+9JQ&incorporationFromDay=&incorporationFromMonth=&incorporationFromYear=&incorporationToDay=&incorporationToMonth=&incorporationToYear=&sicCodes=&dissolvedFromDay=&dissolvedFromMonth=&dissolvedFromYear=&dissolvedToDay=&dissolvedToMonth=&dissolvedToYear=)

It’s basically a WeWork for people who want to pretend they have a London office.

CILEX Violations: (One day CILEX is going to lose its charter, so these are more for SRA than CILEX Regulation, but also important for the public to see)

  • Principle 2.2 – Not engage in conduct that undermines confidence in the profession. Using deceptive business addresses damages public trust — exactly what the new Companies House reforms are designed to prevent.
  • Principle 3.2 – Not intentionally mislead anyone you deal with. Making false implications about location and operations.

2. Can’t Even Spell His Own Fake Address

On his website, Evans incorrectly lists the address as :”71-75 Shelton St. Covent Garden, London, WC2 9JQ, UK” instead of the correct WC2H 9JQ.

(Source: https://www.gresham-international.com/)

In the UK, postcodes matter. A lot. This isn’t some typo. It shows he doesn’t even know his own registered address. Also notice how Meydan Freezone is missing other vital information to receive mail or subpoenas, but he’s going to help YOU with compliance? And in the UK? After all, that’s where he claims he operates from:

(Source: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/mrcalevans, He even has a “UK” LinkedIn address.)

CILEX Violations:

  • Principle 4.1 – Understand and comply with law and regulation. Can’t even get basic registration details correct.
  • Principle 8.1 – Maintain proper standards of work. This level of incompetence falls below professional standards.

3. Which Gresham International Are You Hiring?

Now, god forbid you desire to hire this moron but, as seen above, “Each company is independently operated and not a partnership, association or other.” Whatever that means. Look, without Evans claiming I’m “practicing law,” it makes no logistical sense to have this many entities unless they are hiding something. Like who the hell are you hiring? And more importantly, who are you suing?!

I mean, if this doesn’t look like fraud of some sort, I don’t know what does especially when you look at the details of all these dormant companies:

  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL LTD (14836788)
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL LIMITED (02878846)
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL GROUP LTD (10320334)
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL AMERICA LLC (former director of CAPONE ASSOCIATES LLP (OC422364))
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL LLC (former director of THE CRYPTOCURRENCY ACADEMY LTD (11042695))
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL GROUP LIMITED (former director of Gresham International Group LTD (10320334))
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL LEGAL SERVICES (former director of GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL EUROPE LIMITED (09825832))
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL EUROPE LIMITED (09825832)
  • GRESHAM INTERNATIONAL SHAREHOLDING LTD (14834875)

(See https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search?q=GRESHAM+INTERNATIONAL)

Beyond sketchy.

CILEX Violations:

  • Principle 3.2 – Not intentionally mislead anyone you deal with. Operating at least 10 different “Gresham International” entities without clear disclosure creates deliberate confusion about which legal entity clients are actually engaging.
  • Principle 2.2 – Not engage in conduct that undermines confidence in the profession. Creating a web of dormant and active entities obscures accountability and makes it nearly impossible to determine legal liability.
  • Principle 4.1 – Understand and comply with law and regulation. Maintaining multiple dormant entities while marketing under the “Gresham International” brand violates UK corporate transparency requirements.
  • Principle 8.1 – Maintain proper standards of work. No legitimate legal services firm needs 10+ variations of the same company name with most being dormant.

4. “Daddy’s” in Charge

Despite calling President Trump his “Daddy Trump,” his actual father is the director of Gresham International (UK) Limited (Company #10320334).

(Source: https://x.com/TateNews_/status/1801248592234967308?s=20)

That’s right! The oldest Gresham International in the United Kingdom is controlled by Colin Evans — Cal’s father. (Source: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10320334/officers)

Which matches Gresham International’s LinkedIn:

(Source: https://www.linkedin.com/in/colin-evans-023b8b77/)

Now is this some form of elder abuse, tax fraud, or has Evans Sr. been pulling the strings the entire time? I have no idea. What I do know is that Cal Evans has not been the director of Gresham International, per the UK Companies House filings since January 1, 2017!

(Source: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10320334/filing-history?page=1)

Then some shady new appointments look like they were made with US entities (e.g., Gresham International Enterprises, Inc. (Inc. meaning incorporated and generally an American term) and “Gresham International America Llc” (his typical misspelling of “LLC,” meaning it was Cal Evans who filed that). 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 Evans Sr. is appointed on November 1, 2021. Right before all the dormancy.

(Source: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10320334/filing-history?page=1)

So Evans is out here selling UK corporate compliance services through a company his daddy actually controls.

According to Evans’ own origin story, he became a lawyer because he wanted to impress his father who would only listen to lawyers. Young Cal asked daddy how to become a lawyer, and daddy pointed to law books and told him to read them.

(Source: https://apacentrepreneur.com/cal-evans-a-remarkable-business-leader-and-legal-expert-on-the-quest-to-transform-the-crypto-space/)

Maybe if he’d actually read those law books his father pointed to, he’d understand that marketing yourself as running a company your daddy controls is fraud, not entrepreneurship. After all, he’s not a lawyer. He’s a glorified paralegal as a CILEX Chartered Legal Executive. So, spoiler alert, he really didn’t accept that challenge!

Transparency!

CILEX Violations:

  • Principle 3.2 – Not intentionally mislead anyone you deal with. Holding himself out as principal of Gresham International when his father Colin Evans is the actual registered director since January 1, 2017.
  • Principle 3.5 – Not hold yourself out as having a qualification, position or status you don’t possess. Presenting himself as director when he has not held that position since 2017.
  • Principle 2.2 – Not engage in conduct that undermines confidence in the profession. Operating through a corporate structure where the actual legal director is hidden from clients and the public.
  • Principle 4.1 – Understand and comply with law and regulation. Failing to accurately represent the corporate structure as required by UK Companies House transparency requirements.

5. The Phantom Foundation

Evans promotes the “Gresham International Foundation” as a UK-based charitable foundation.

He’s held events for it in Cannes, featured it prominently on his website, and markets it extensively. (See Part XII: The Newest Con by Cal Evans of Gresham International – Introducing the Gresham International Foundation, https://www.dunsmoorlaw.com/2025/09/part-xii-the-newest-con-by-cal-evans-of-gresham-international-introducing-the-gresham-international-foundation/26/)

It is not registered ANYWHERE in the UK.

Search the UK Charity Commission for “Gresham International Foundation” and you get ZERO results. Nothing. Nada.

(Source: https://register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/en/charity-search/-/results/page/1/delta/20/keywords/Gresham+international+Foundation)

Maybe its like the “Gresham International” registration problem he claimed to the Dubai International Financial Centre (“DIFC”) when he tried to register the firm there. He falsely claimed he could not registered Gresham International because “Due to the ongoing CILEX and the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) merger, new firm-level registrations had been paused.”

Complete bollocks. There was no CILEX/SRA registration pause which is why Gresham International is no longer registered in DIFC.

Per DIFC’s email confirmations:

(See Email me for the originals)

Despite Evans still having it on his LinkedIn profile in November 2025 and the use of the logo on the Gresham International website.

Violations:

  • Principle 4.1 – Understand and comply with law and regulation. Operating an unregistered “charity” violates UK charity law.
  • Principle 3.2 – Not intentionally mislead anyone you deal with. Claiming to operate a UK foundation that doesn’t exist.
  • Principle 2.2 – Not engage in conduct that undermines confidence in the profession. Running phantom entities damages public trust.

6. Lives in Wisconsin, Not London

Despite the London address charade, Evans actually resides in Wisconsin.

He this is where he falsely claimed to hold a Wisconsin in-house counsel license, which means he’s only authorized to work for Stonehouse Properties LLC — a company he never mentions in any of his promotional materials, articles, or speaking engagements.

When, in reality, he gave up the in-house counsel registration on May 16, 2024.

(See 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/)

Violations:

  • Principle 3.2 – Not intentionally mislead anyone you deal with. Implying he operates from London when he lives in Wisconsin.
  • Principle 4.1 – Understand and comply with law and regulation. Potentially practicing outside the scope of his Wisconsin in-house license.

III. The Hypocrisy is Staggering

Let’s recap what Evans is selling versus what Evans is doing:

Evans says: The new rules strengthen the integrity of the UK corporate register
Evans does: Uses a mail forwarding scam address with 150,000 other companies

Evans says: The new rules reduce fraud and misuse of UK entities
Evans does: Cannot even spell his own registered address correctly knowing it is fundamentally required for postcodes in England

Evans says: It increases global confidence in UK business structures
Evans does: Runs an unregistered foundation claiming to be UK based

Evans says: The new rules aid in corporate transparency and director accountability
Evans does: His father is the actual director while he pretends to run the company

Evans says: They help clients navigate evolving compliance obligations
Evans does: Lives in Wisconsin while operating a dormant company controlled by his dad while pretending to operate from London

Evans says: Structure your entities correctly
Evans does: Does everything he can to avoid liability, accountability, and compliance with his own “legal services” firm

Violations:

  • Principle 3.5 – Not hold yourself out as having a qualification you don’t possess. Cannot claim to be a UK compliance expert while violating basic UK company law.
  • Principle 5.3 – Act only on matters within your competence. Demonstrably not competent in UK corporate compliance.
  • Principle 2.2 – Not engage in conduct that undermines confidence in the profession. Selling compliance services while violating compliance requirements is peak incompetence.

IV. Conclusion

This is what happens when a glorified paralegal tries to play lawyer. Evans lectures the world about UK Companies House compliance while his own filings are a disaster:

  • Wrong postcodes
  • Mail forwarding scam addresses
  • All his UK entities for Gresham International are dormant
  • Phantom foundations
  • His father as the actual director, not him
  • Operating from Wisconsin while claiming London

His new slogan should be “At Gresham International, we help you violate the same compliance obligations we lecture you about.”

The only thing Evans is an expert at is hypocrisy and fraud.

End of Part XIV.

Stay tuned for Part XV, where I set off the legal nuclear bomb that destroys whatever remains of Evans’ reputation along with his lawyers, Super Lawyer Kara Gorycki and former Wisconsin prosecutor Rodman Streicher of Nesenoff & Miltenberg LLP.
