This document is floating all over the Internet. Let's take it apart one section at a time and examine it.
World Law Direct statements are in black. My comments are in red.
Solidinvestment.com investment scam
Solid investment has not been off line long enough to determine if it is a scam or not.

Fraud warning regarding the firm "Solid Investment" (SI) and its site solidinvestment.com
Solid Investment has not been off line long enough to determine if it is a fraud or not.
July 31, 2006:
Our lawyers are finishing several key meetings with law enforcement this week and we expect significant developments to be announced shortly. Separately, we expect e-gold Ltd. officials and their legal counsel to be the subject of a U.S. Federal Court subpoena. We believe e-gold Ltd. is subject to U.S. Federal Court jurisdiction and may be held liable for some or all of the investors' losses (and potential triple damages) in the Solid Investment scam.
World Law Direct (WLD) uses the words "expect" and "believe" in this paragraph. "...we expect significant developments...," "...we expect g-gold Ltd. officials and their legal counsel to be the subject of a U.S. Federal Court subpoena...," and "...we believe e-gold Ltd. is subject to U.S. Federal Court jurisdiction..." The words "expect" and "believe" do not denote that anything of significance has happened yet, just that they "expect" and "believe" that it will, possibly an intention to mislead. In instances like this, foreign jurisdictions generally do not recognize any U.S. standing within its court systems, just as the U.S. does not.

$100,000 Bounty
A 100,000 dollar bounty has been issued. Contact us for more information. Earn 100,000 dollars for substantial information resulting in the further location and arrest of the operators of SolidInvestment.com.
The bounty covers and includes the person(s) that called themselves Rafael Sosa and/or Sam Collins.
Why put this large of a bounty on Solid Investment? There are many other Internet sites that go off line and disappear with people's money. Why Solid Investment, and only Solid Investment? Maybe there is something here that is more than just simple justice.
In addition, the name Sam Colins is misspelled as "Collins." While this may be attributed to simple error, it sends a message that maybe this WLD document may not be as factual as it pretends to be.
July 18, 2006:
Our lawyers and outside counsel are filing in US Federal Court, and on a limited basis, with at least two courts abroad. If you wish to potentially have your account included in, or added to, our filing, please email us with your name and original amounts invested. Also kindly note for us records of any communication with any SolidInvestment "staff".
Again, they say that they "are filing," not that they "have filed," a big difference. Anyone can say they are going to do something, and then do nothing.
If you provide these lawyers with any of your Solid Investment account information and it turns out that SI has not gone away and has paid all of its investors, you may be tossed out of SI for violating its rule on non-disclosure to third parties, thus losing years of future profits. These lawyers are not telling anyone this, are they?
Input to our staff has been tremendous. Numerous tips, phone records, recordings, etc. already have helped to locate certain offenders and certain assets. We will keep you apprised.
What offenders and what assets. Ask them for specific information.
Comments from our site users regarding solidinvestment.com
"...as of mid-day Saturday July 8th, 2006,
the Solidinvestment site has been down, as well as the forum:
http://www.ecurrencyforum.com, which we now believe to have
been controlled by them (SI). It is imperative therefore, that we proceed with swiftness, to keep SI from pulling off one the BIGGEST HYIP scams in Internet history!"
There is no evidence, as of the date of this document from WLD, that Solid Investment has pulled "...off one of the BIGGEST HYIP scams in Internet history!..." SI has not been off line long enough.
"I also wanted to say that http://www.solidinvestment.com/ is a scam!! They used to be Jungle Ventures many months ago.. they claim they are not Jungle Ventures but had a certificate on their site that had Jungle Ventures as the name of the registered company..."
Solid Investment made it very clear, on their Internet site when it was up, that others were using a site called Jungle Ventures.com to fool investors into thinking that it was them. SI also stated that the name of their registered corporation in Belize was Jungle Ventures Ltd., not Jungle Ventures.com. So, this statement is misleading.
Both of these statements were authored by people who may mistakenly believe they have been cheated by Solid Investment. WLD simply copied them to their Internet site and are misrepresenting them as fact, not opinion.
Operators of Solid Investment and the site solidinvestment.com have collected funds, failed to make promised payments, and have now disappeared.
There is no evidence yet that SI had "...failed to make promised payments, and have now disappeared..." This may come later if it does not reappear.
Solidinvestment was supposedly a Belize-based company. An ongoing review of Internet and other records by WORLDLawDirect has shown the operators to be in several locations.
Solid Investment is not a Belize based company. Solid Investment is their doing business as (DBA) name, just like Radio Shack is Tandy Corporation's DBA name. However, Jungle Ventures, Ltd., Solid Investment's corporation, is a Belize based company. The above statement is misleading.
Lawyers are filing a federal lawsuit including charges for violation of the Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c). Plaintiffs seek triple damages as allowed by law. More details as court papers are released.
WLD keeps saying that they "are filing" lawsuits, but nothing has happened thus far, and no court papers have surfaced proving that they intend to go forward with anything.
Criminal charges are being filed as of today, July 12, 2006. If you have further comments or information, or need help, email us here at WORLDLawDirect.
Again, they say criminal charges are "being filed," but they do not say criminal charges have been filed and no documents have surfaced proving it. Again, possibly, an intention to mislead.
Case complaints may also be sent to investigators at:
FBI New York
Internet Fraud Division
26 Federal Plaza, 23rd. Floor
New York, New York 10278-0004
This address does not appear to be valid. Other federal offices, in this building, list their addresses in a different fashion. Also, where is the telephone number?
Of course, you can draw your own conclusions, but, in my opinion, this whole document appears to be filled with falsehoods, suppositions, expectations, beliefs, misstatements, and misspellings, and generally, on its face, it appears that it was intended to mislead.
I am not making any statements as to whether Solid Investment will, or will not, come back on line. I am only saying this document does not look right to me.
