Wayne Dyer’s son in law indicted fraud
November 28, 2017 Sentencing Report:
Prosecutors expressed their condolences for Pisoni’s recent personal troubles but recommended Pisoni should serve the maximum of 20 years in prison for his role in a massive fraud conspiracy that hurt thousands of victims in the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan and other countries. Many of the victims were vulnerable and elderly.
“This is about other families too … sons who watched their fathers being defrauded,” prosecutor H. Ron Davidson told the judge. He called it a “repulsive and cruel” crime that left widows with no money to pay their bills.
U.S. District Judge Darrin Gayles … announced the punishment ..(of)…Seven years in federal prison was the appropriate punishment given the seriousness of the offense, the fact that the crimes went on for seven years and the need to deter others from committing similar crimes, the judge said.
“This whole business scheme, I mean it’s designed for fraud,” the judge said, rejecting the notion that no crime was committed. “There were no winners, there was never a payout.”

United States Dept of Justice Report
Four Florida residents were sentenced to prison terms ranging from 42 months imprisonment to 84 months imprisonment for participating in a sweepstakes mail fraud scheme.
Does Crime Pay? According to Pisoni’s main family member.. No, because it’s only WHITE crime, not REAL crime!
Just IN: December 3, 2017
Matt Pisoni hid assets of scam in overseas bank, Gonet & Cie (Gonet), Bahamas. This bank was investigated by US Justice Dept in 2015 and forced to make restitution.
According to the Miami Herald article of Nov 30, 2017: “ In addition to the $26,871,290 money judgment, the government snagged from Pisoni the house and land at 2430 Castillo Isle in Fort Lauderdale, on which Broward property records put a market value at $2,161,610; and everything in Pisoni’s bank account at Geneva bank Gonet & Cie Banquiers Prives; Bahamian bank First Caribbean International Bank; and six SunTrust Investment Accounts.”
Was there a report of a new self help book in the offing?

This guy stole money from Cisco and Microsoft and private individuals and spent that money traveling the globe and having drinks with women.
Looks like these guys may be facing other charges like RICO, IRS, money laundering, and criminal charges from other countries.
20 years of crimes leaves a long trail.
These criminals still have not been brought up on the other charges outside of the USA.
And what about MT Global Media and the criminal activity that it was involved in money laundering.
There is a reason why these guys had so many companies. They were laundering so much money from different IT Telecom crimes.
Question….is Pisoni out on bond or is he locked up waiting sentencing??Serena’s FB
Is saying Matt’s son died suddenly on Sep 21st.
Pisoni was found guilty and awaits sentencing 10/13/17. Possibly he is out on bail?
https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdfl/pr/four-south-florida-residents-guilty-conspiring-commit-sweepstakes-mail-fraud
Info unknown about his son…is there a death notice?
Looks like his sentencing is delayed? It does not look to be on the judge calendar for the 13th? Do you know? I don’t think there is an official obit, but if you search Mason Pisoni you will see various mentions on facebook. I wondered if that triggered a delay in sentencing. I don’t know.
Was sent this. Mason Kane Pisoni arrested on drug and alcohol charges in Buncombe NC on 8/25/17.
https://northcarolina.arrests.org/Arrests/Mason_Pisoni_34077633/
That is his son. Will have to watch for sentencing I think it got delayed because of this.
Wasn’t Matt Pisoni sentenced on October 13th? Did he go to jail?
looking at the judge’s calendar, it does not look like he was in the docket on that day. Sentence was possibly delayed?
Sentencing is now scheduled for Nov 28th.
http://www.flsd.uscourts.gov/wp-content/uploads/misc/ceoWeb/3C55week3ceo.htm
The crew is getting sentenced on the 28th of Nov.
Karma. Matt Pisoni sentenced to full 20 years sentence on Nov 28. 2017. Due for parole in 7 years.
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/local/broward/fl-reg-sweepstakes-fraud-sentenced-20171128-story.html
He only received 7years & will appeal & probably get out in 2
I think you’re mistaken. According to the attached newspaper article from Sun Sentinel, he received a sentence of 20 years. Pisoni could make parole in maybe 7 years if he behaves.The Judge pretty much gave him a full sentence. And said Pisoni was aware that he had been defrauding old people for the last 7 years and spending that money of his rich lifestyle. Boo hoo.
A terrible shame though that this may have affected his young 19 year old son. ( And it seems Pisoni tried to use his son’s death, and everything else to get off!!! ) The judge did not buy it!!!
The judge must believe in Wayne Dyer’s famous quote.“ You don’t attract what you want. You attract what you are.” But what does that saying make Pisoni?
https://quotefancy.com/quote/932366/Wayne-W-Dyer-The-law-of-attraction-is-this-You-don-t-attract-what-you-want-You-attract
His poor son only 19,and the poor son’s mom. Seems Pisoni’s wife likes to blast a lot on social media of their 2 daughters & family. Does not seem like either one is suffering, but the kids. Sad!
The article states the following which to me means he only received 7yrs? But my take on it.
“U.S. District Judge Darrin Gayles did not directly address Pisoni’s bereavement when he announced the punishment he was imposing.
Seven years in federal prison was the appropriate punishment given the seriousness of the offense, the fact that the crimes went on for seven years and the need to deter others from committing similar crimes, the judge said. He said he was surprised to learn there have not been more criminal prosecutions of people who sent out similar mailers to victims”
So true ma’am. I raised the boy with my wife and kids and he hated his dad and died because of the punk and his slut blond wife
Understandably, What a shame. The son has to suffer the sins of the father.
It does make one angry to see and hear this. But, please Saul remember to watch your language in comments. Take care
Pisoni did receive a full sentence of 84 months by the judge. Here is court record link:
https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdfl/pr/four-south-florida-residents-sentenced-prison-conspiring-commit-sweepstakes-mail-fraud
As to Serena Dyer Pisoni, I’m sure the Judge has heard it all before. I have received reports that while she sobbed her sad story to the judge of her 2 1/2 years of “unimaginable loss for the family”, she was jet setting with husband and rich friends to NYC, Hawaii, etc. She may not be full blown NPD but definitely lives in her own little world. And of course, while scamming 25 million dollars from old people they thought it perfectly alright.What does that tell you? So sad.
7 years per Serena’s facebook post. No sorry, no remorse or regret per her recent post. Serena is very public and doesn’t seem to be losing any sleep over anything. Mason’s death, what her husband did to her & her family. Just how great her life is with her kids and jetsetting all over. Lavish wedding in Hawaii and they do not go without anything. 7yrs is not much and he will be released proabably in 3.
Under Federal guidelines, Pisoni will have to serve 85% of his sentence before being considered for parole.
Professorpat,, looks like Matthew Pisoni is not in Federal prison yet. Wonder why? Maybe it has something to do with being a white collar crime. Even if they stole more than 25 million!

Very happy to hear this,I was thinking about testifying against him as a friend of Mason”s
Looks like the feds made yet another goof in this case, lucky for Matt.
No prison yet, thanks to the feds……
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/local/broward/fl-reg-sweepstakes-fraud-prison-delay-20180112-story.html
Delaying the inevitable. Just like OJ. Pisoni has been found out and now has to make restitution and reformation. You’d think he would just come clean. But I guess not. Look what happened to the little guy that confessed. He’s already on his way to jail. While ringleader Pisoni goes free. He’s not really human at heart.
Biggest filthy greedy selfish ignorant sob prick on the planet and his slut blond wife
Yes, this is all about HER. Pisoni scamming and lawbreaking was God’s way of teaching HER to be humble and serve the greater good. Give me a break. I don’t know what’s worse! All the exposed dishonesty, greed and crime or her blabbing about her egocentric spirituality and God’s plan for HER!
You are so accurate.
So true, so true….I wonder if she will “stand by her man” for the next 84 months…something tells me no…
Not a peep out of Serena for the past two months…her FB page is moribund. Lawyers must’ve put the clamps on her public utterings in anticipation of an appeal?? Hopefully, his sentence will be carried out next month….
What is the deal?? why is there no news about hearings/status updates from the court?
Soon? One to the scammers who confessed is in a Federal Prison. John Leon #07891-104 is in FPC Montgomery
https://www.bop.gov/mobile/find_inmate/byname.jsp#inmate_results
Pisoni was the ring leader and has/had bigger pockets to afford high priced lawyers.
Judge Gayles agreed Thursday to let the other three men remain free until at least March 16.
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/local/broward/fl-reg-sweepstakes-fraud-prison-delay-20180112-story.html
Any news yet as to whether or not the 3 scammers have to start serving their prison sentences today? I hope Judge Gayles sees through their snake oil defense screen and lowers the boom on them!! Fat chance, though, that those who were defrauded will see much in the way of remuneration…probably will be lucky to get receive 10 cents on the dollar. Good to see that at least the defendants’ houses, off shore accounts, airplanes, trust accounts, etc., were scooped up by the Feds. Won’t hurt Ms. Dyer much, however….not if news accounts are accurate about Papa Wayne leaving a 20 million dollar plus estate to his heirs….
Haven’t seen anything yet. I thought Wayne Dyer was giving all his money to the poor and God as part of his ascended master training?
The last news story was the “breathtaking revelation” in which the judge agreed to keep them out of the big house till march 16. There has been zero updates which i think is very odd. Anyone know anything different???
That “breathtaking revelation” was a cry baby claim made by ringleader Pisoni’s attorney David Oscar Markus, when one of the scammers decided to confess his and their wrongdoing.I wonder if Paula McMahon from Sun Sentinel is still following this?
More than two weeks passed the March 16 deadline and no news…nada…zip….$$$$ trumps truth in our justice system…please don’t let them skate….
If you look at Judge Gayles calendar there is finally a hearing on the books. Prof Pat I think you are giving Pisoni too much credit. I dont think he is that important or that rich to evade jail.

USA v. Pisoni et al
https://www.docketalarm.com/cases/Florida_Southern_District_Court/1–15-cr-20339/USA_v._Pisoni_et_al/
He is still free, and posting videos with his kids. So he got out of jail? No consequences for his actions? Serena minimized his actions, saying only 20 people out of millions complained and it was only $20-$30. No remorse for their actions whatsoever.
Yes, Ariel. It is sad. She has suffered so much already. She also once claimed that this is God’s plan for HER…for ” God’s attempt to strip me of my ego, take everything material from me, and force me to really ask myself, are you sure you are ready to be a student of complete surrender and faith”. It does seem rather strange to me, that if she truly believed what she said about God. That God actually caused her husband to steal 25 Million( even if it was at $20 a pop) and be found guilty and sentenced appropriately. Then… why oh why is she/he appealing. Aren’t they in actually appealing and contradicting “God’s attempt”? What Baloney she speaks at any given moment. But, what really can you expect from Wayne Dyer’s daughter. She got the full benefit of his ‘teachings’ alright. It’s definitely all about HER. Including what HER God does in HER world. What a sad twisted life. Strange that none of the news papers have followed up on this story?
Boy, talk about the wheels of justice turning ever so slowly…I was sure that all four of these con artists would be incarcerated by now….now it looks like thanks to the incompetence of the Federal prosecutors, the defense team will be able to stave off the inevitable for many more months to come…:(
WOW, Serena just wrote a post about how corrupt the criminal justice system is, and how they didn’t look at all the evidence. Absolutely no personal accountability whatsoever. It is VERY clear that this was FRAUD, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that.
Maybe since he’s a con artist, he has conned her into believing his lies? Or maybe she was in on it? I am shocked because I actually thought she was a decent person before all of this. We all make mistakes, but not taking accountability is where I no longer have sympathy.
I think Serena was raised in a family where grifting was a way of life. I know this sounds harsh but it’s been my experience that the great majority of gurus, mystical leaders, spiritual advisors, New Age authors, etc., etc., are basically motivated by one thing and one thing only: money, money money….monnnneeey…So the transition from Papa Wayne to Con Man Matt must have been a fairly easy one. Either that or she is incredibly stupid and naive…neither of which I believe she is…..
Professor Pat, very true.
BTW, Paula McHahon from the Sun Sentinel responded to email to say the Sun Sentinel is ‘ monitoring it and will write when they figure out what’s going to happen with the other defendants.’
Well, here we are almost into 2019 and the con artists are still out running around free as can be. I suppose Pisoni’s appeal will take years to wend its way through the courts…oh well, money talks and justice stops. I’ll check back in 2022 or so.
Yeah, that seems to be correct. Only newspaper reports say they are in jail. But that’s not so. 25 million is a lot of money to steal! Well, maybe Serena Dyer is right! It’s white collar crime. Almost like that’s a good thing.
Well, another 5 more months and the scammers are still free as birds…I don’t suppose any one’s heard any updates regarding status of their appeal??
No update, they are still free as a bird. They’re going to get away with it.
Finally, a new trial! Hope it goes better this time around.
I hope not… But they finally nailed Brazil’s john of god! Sentenced to 19 years for his first charges! This was the guy Oprah and Wayne Dyer promoted. Crowing about his spirituality. accomplices?

Just announced that Matt Pisoni and his two co-defendants have won a new trial with a new prosecution team. I wonder if the fourth defendant who is currently serving time for the same crime will testify against his three co-conspirators…
Yea, Just goes to show how money influences the courts..
Shame about Pisoni’s son, though. Money can’t buy everything.
