"The witness, Ms. Travis: No, he explained it to me in very specific words, 'It's not going to be a way of trading, it's a convalescence account.'
The Honorable Judge Bibi: I can't understand, I ask the witness, what does this phrase mean, the reckoning account that she keeps saying? If you don't get money through trading, how did they explain to her that she would get the money back? Is it just because it's called a convalescence account that the money will fall on her from the sky? I don't understand what you're saying. If you could please explain to me what they explained to you and what you believed in?
The witness, Ms. Travis: That's how it was explained to me.
The Honorable Judge Bibi: Didn't you ask where I would get my money from? That's how they explained to me, well. I find it difficult to understand how the plaintiff believed that with the money in a convalescence account she would receive the money when she was not explained where the money actually came from. When it comes to trading, they explain to her that it's in trading, they tell her one story or another. But when it comes to the name of an account as a convalescence account and you don't explain to her where you get the money from, I find it hard to understand what she believed. How will it work?
The witness, Ms. Travis: I can only tell you what they told me, that's what they called it."
I will note that in this testimony the plaintiff did not refer to trading in OFM but to the account that was presented to her as a convalescence account after she lost her money in OFM, by a representative of another company who contacted her, however, the same questions also arise with regard to the representation that was presented to the plaintiff regarding the transfer of her money to a convalescence account in the framework of her activity in OFM, as the plaintiff explicitly testified on page 59, line 10.
Moreover, the plaintiff admitted in her testimony that after she had already incurred losses, she asked to receive money from her father's estate manager, Paul Clark, but he refused to transfer money to her (see her testimony on page 44, lines 12-14 and her testimony on page 45), since he told her that this was a dangerous activity and moreover, he even recommended that she receive legal advice for the defendants' claim (see the plaintiff's testimony on page 57, lines 31-34). However, despite this, the plaintiff continued to deposit - even afterwards - additional funds and continue to trade in binary options - through the defendants and later, through other companies. Regarding this, as part of her testimony, the plaintiff was referred to another email message from May 2016 and testified, on page 57, lines 31-34:
