The Truth about Truthology

Nimbin GoodTimes removed the article, "The Truth about Bhula Bhula" from their online archive, promised a retraction and offered free full-page ads for a year after legal action was initiated by Mark Darwin, claiming over $3 million damages.

Litigation by Darwin is ongoing in Sydney Supreme Court on the Defamation list - "Darwin v Norman". With additional plaintiffs Adrian Brennock (Mr X / AB), Phillip 
Dixon and Steven McSween, Darwin filed a Notice of Motion for an urgent interlocutory injunction demanding that the blogs of the "Association of Investors Defrauded by Darwin" be taken down by court order.

Darwin and Brennock withdrew their request on June 21, recognizing that their evidence was deficient.

Darwin & co  then filed another Notice of Motion to have our blogs taken down as an "injurious falsehood" claim, also linking Mount Warning Eco village Pty Ltd with a complaint that these blogs are causing them to fail to secure loans that would enable them to purchase the property where they are fraudulently advertising home lots for sale on on environmentally protected land without development approval.

Litigation by Darwin & co, is accompanied by threats and attempted intimidation of the author of the article, as well as threats to other blog authors and administrators. 

Judgement by Justice Lucy McCallum is deferred pending compliance by Mt Warning Eco Village Pty Ltd with requests for more information regarding the claims of potential loss to their commercial interests as a supposed consequence of our blogs.

The Truth about Bhula Bhula 
By Gi Linda -- Nimbin GoodTimes  --  October 2016, p.4

"Buyer beware, before your investment takes a one-way trip into the back pocket of a stranger’s snakeskin pants!" 

Legal action is in process by disillusioned investors in a community at Mt Burrell, near Nimbin. The community was founded by Mark Darwin through his organisation, ‘Truthology’. Investors warn that ‘Truthology’ presents a matrix of lies, using misleading marketing to facilitate acquisition of multi-million-dollar properties. Litigating investors attempting to recover losses and damages totaling more than $1.5 million also filed a police fraud report, sought protection against harassment and are pressing charges of defamation.

 Investors paid up to $120,000 for fake shares in the 640 acre property and some also transferred their superannuation, falsely assured by Mark Darwin that development applications were in process. Tweed Council’s warnings that no community would be permitted on the property were kept hidden. Only an inner circle knew that the advertised lots were protected for water catchment to a proposed dam at Byrrill Creek. An independent town planning report advising that multiple occupancy would not be allowed was hidden from investors, who began building dream-homes with exotic mountain views.

When Mark Darwin contemptuously called Mt Burrell ‘Hicksville’ boasting he would build the ‘village’ in defiance of council regulations, locals began investigating his past activities. Finding a long trail of murky footprints, they opposed him with a ‘Hicksville Party’ and activated a ‘Committee to Stop Mark Darwin’ that complained to Tweed Council about the emerging shanty-town in an environmentally protected area.

Bhula-Bhula Community

The community ‘Bhula-Bhula’ was advertised as an opportunity for ‘living in harmony,’ but soon after it began, the harmony was shattered by conflict. Those who sniffed a scam and called for accountability were menaced and driven out of the community. 

When an accidental fire in a camper almost set the forest ablaze, Tweed Council ordered everyone to leave. Investors were driven off the property without return of their funds and without share titles. Loans were not repaid. Despite calls for transparency, all books were hidden. The cattle were sold and abandoned paddocks overgrown with weeds.  A sign bolted to the broken front gate warned ‘ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!’

With Tweed Council and departing investors initiating litigation, Mark Darwin gifted free shares in the property to Aboriginal Sovereignty activist Gunham / Mark McMurtry, who moved his family into the abandoned homestead. Scorning ethics and government regulation as irrelevant, Mark Darwin’s clique continued marketing fake shares in property where no habitation is permitted. They cleared more forest, built new access roads and expanded their hot offer to include sale of unapproved lots with cabins on 3,000 acres of adjoining property in Nightcap Forest.

“Is the bubble about to burst?” The Truthology website provokes fears of immanent financial collapse as the community ‘village’ is promoted as an “ethical investment opportunity” at public meetings and ‘Freedom Summits’ in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne Perth, the Gold Coast and Byron Bay.

“What drives us is the opportunity to offer everyday Australians the option of investing their hard earned digits into ethical, eco-friendly, community driven projects. Many of our clients are also inspired by being able to vote with their superannuation by directing it into ethical, tangible and socially responsible areas.” 

Mark Darwin's Land-share Fraud

Mark Darwin, with four abandoned families, self-promotes as an expensive anti-establishment Sovereignty mentor.  Dark-circled eyes and sharp incisors give him a slightly vampiric look, as he hides under the skirts of an ever-changing clique of sycophants. He is mentor to Adrian Brennock who for a year, controlled the Mt Burrell property holding a single share of value $1 in Wollumbin Horizons Pty Ltd. This shell links to a web of other companies managed by Rainmaker Eco Investments.

In contrast to the losses of investors, the directors of Rainmaker Eco, did quite well last year. Living in beachfront luxury with holidays in Bali, Mark Darwin, Adrian Brennock and Philip Dixon bid on various million-dollar properties and successfully acquired the commercial precinct at Mt Burrell, including Sphinx Rock Cafe, shops, service station and caravan park.

Ignoring the debris of financial carnage, conflict and grief, Rainmaker Eco, with marketing manager Kelly McSween, brazenly continues advertising opportunities to invest in Mt Burrell ‘village,’ as Mark Darwin boldly calls for new cashed-up believers to finance his expanding dystopia: “This is a unique opportunity to buy into an entire village!!” 

Buyer beware, before your investment takes a one-way trip into the back pocket of a stranger’s snakeskin pants!

Medical Cannabis Scam Alert: Nimbin University Cannabis Community at Mt Burrell

“Nimbin University” - a community cannabis research and medical treatment campus at Mt Burrell was launched at Nimbin Bush Theater at a Medican Workshop on Saturday, 15th April. Charmaster Dolph Cooke appeared on stage spruiking the ambitious new project and offering miracle cannabis cures to 10,000 proposed members of Nimbin University's Cannabis Community.

It costs only $1 to bite the little hook.
Buyer be warned! Scam alert!

Dolph Cooke - Founder of "Nimbin University"

Warm endorsement by Nimbin Hemp Embassy, the Medican workshop and a glowing feature in the Nimbin GoodTimes lend a thin veneer of authenticity to "Nimbin University Cannabis Community", accessing a big network with a $1 hook.
 

Dolph is confident that changes in drug laws are imminent. He boasts that his "uni" will soon be flying high on windfalls of cash expected from a market boom in medical cannabis. “It’s not legal yet.” Dolph admits, “But we don’t care, we’re doing it anyway!”
 

Mark Darwin and Cas Coman

Buyer Beware! The sick and vulnerable who are eager to receive forbidden weed for only $1 should note that the contact address for "Nimbin University" is 3222 Kyogle Rd, Mt Burrell, NSW — notorious home of the Bhula-Bhula land scam. The ongoing land-share fraud is headed by Mark Darwin, who, flaunting the motto, “do no harm”, is currently confronted by legal action by angry, defrauded investors.

 

Nimbin University - The Hidden Agenda
What Dolph did not say in his launch of "Nimbin University" is that pulling strings in the background are the unseen scam-masters of chameleon disguise; "sovereign citizens", followers of marketeer Mark Darwin who uses the pseudonym "Dummass Boofhead" and loan shark Adrian Brennock, known as "AB". Co-creators of the Bhula-Bhula fiasco, they're always found luring financiers with a “worthy” ideology linked to a pioneering business with a profitable data-base.
 

You’ve got to give credit where it’s due, masters of misleading marketing, Mark Darwin and the Boyz certainly have audacity and imagination! No longer satisfied with acquiring million-dollar properties by selling residential lots on land without development approval, the Boyz have now expanded their Mt Burrell scam to include mass-marketing medicinal cannabis to sick and vulnerable people. The illicit medicinal herb is falsely advertised as licensed industrial hemp, and with sleight of hand Dolph's "Cannabis Community" links directly to the land fraud.Dolph Cooke

The new pop-up-frontman for the fraud, Dolph Cooke, is a local producer of biochar who grows a small hemp crop on the property neighboring Bhula-Bhula. Handing out flyers and signing up subscribers, Dolph began his presentation at Nimbin Bush Theatre by stressing his opinion, “There is no good and evil; no right and wrong”.
 

Dolph hopped in the cot with the bad boyz and says the land-scam’s “all good”, as he happily profits from it. Referring to time he spent institutionalized, he said, “I don’t have feelings like the rest of you.” He has no empathy for those defrauded by his new patrons.

Dolph is calling for 10,000 people to join Nimbin University. It costs only $1 to bite the little hook, and the vision is ever expanding. Dolph says :
 

"Included in all this activity should, obviously, be a teaching facility where aspiring healers can come to learn their trade, and go back into their communities doing the remarkable work knowledge of this plant’s powerful healing actions allows. Thus a spin off from all the fibre being produced from hemp could be a hemp paper mill and clothing factory, with several more people required to have that aspect running smoothly. And if we have our own paper being made, and resident practitioners and intellectuals, we might as well establish our own on-topic newspaper. And if we’re going to do a paper, we might as well have a media studio. And if we’re going to have a media studio, we might as well run some form of radio/tv station."
 

Nimbin University websites nimbinuniversity.com and nimbinuniversity.org point to organicmedicalcannabisaustralia.org, where Dolph has awarded himself a certificate from the "Cannabis Community University" for "life membership to the Cannabis Private Community With all member privileges awarded for his contribution level".


Bhula-Bhula Community Scam

Mark Darwin, Stephanie Humble

In 2014, when the Boyz started draining other people's wallets to build an "intentional community" without development approval, the first attractive facade that occulted the fraud was “harmonious, happy families”, promoted by beautiful Stephanie, mothering four of Darwin’s cute kids (he has eight children). Steph was running “Create A Foundation”, providing aid to sex slaves overseas. The Mt Burrell land-scam was also obscured by an alternative reality of falsehoods in the name of “Truthology” and “Freedom Summits” with conferences and presentations in major cities.

In less than a year the Boyz had scammed investors in the Bhula-Bhula Community of over $1.5 million and the fraud was exposed in local newspapers. Tweed Council was suing the Boyz to remove illegal dwellings from protected land, repair damage and recoup unpaid rates; defrauded investors were litigating and a federal police fraud investigation was underway. So in response the Boyz went cruising in Bali and when they returned they bought the “Township of Mt Burrell”.

Mt Warning Eco Village Scam
 

After Mark Darwin's land scam was exposed, the "Truthology" marketing mirage disappeared with a “poooff”, and an entirely new front appeared. Unseen behind the curtain, the bully Boyz quietly acquired another big fat database to bleed dry, as they warned opponents they would be “washed like flies from the windows of their lives”.

The 2016 pop-up-front for the Mt Burrell land-scam was “Mt Warning Eco Village”, marketing Darwin's vision for "harmonious community" and offering renewed sale of lots for dream-homes with mountain views through Rainmaker Eco Investments.

The new pretty-face to rattle the cash-can was celebrity health coach Tyler Tolman, promoting a vision for an exotic health-spa on Nightcap Forest, a 3,000-acre property neighboring Bhula-Bhula owned by Peter Von Lieshaupt.

A "Cannabis Community" at Mt Burrell
 

Launching their new scam, "Nimbin University" at the Medican Workshop at Nimbin Bush Theater, Charmaster Dolph presented testimonies of people amazingly healed of terminal cancer using just two little bottles of cannabis oil and balm, made from his own crop.

His audience is told that during Stage 1 we can get access to the miracle cure and the forbidden weed for an (initial) membership in the “Community Cannabis University” of only $1. Dolph says 80 people are already signed up. In Stage 2, the new venture at Mt Burrell gets even better... stay tuned!

It costs only $1 to bite the little hook...

Pitching for funds at organicmedicalcannabisaustralia.org, Dolph says:

"...the database will provide a good start to crowd source the funding for many of the goals for the project. By crowd funding we can offer different packages to different levels of financial support. For instance a ten dollar donation to the foundation/co-op might further entitle a member to a copy of the annual magazine or a subscription to a podcast and some bumper stickers.

"But a ten thousand dollar donation would be right to expect a rather larger appreciation package in return. From a donation perspective much money could be reinvested into ongoing research, infrastructure and providing compassionate healing for those in dire need."
 

The hidden capos behind "Nimbin University" and it's miracle-cure "Cannabis Community" did not attend the grand launch at the Nimbin Medican Workshop, as Charmaster Dolph promoted their ambitious scam to an applauding audience.

The Mt Burrell Boyz, rich in imaginative irony, say they are "sovereign citizens" who reject the rule of law and operate with assumed legal impunity "in private not public commerce". In reality they fly by bluster, bullying and the Law of the Brute, and being seriously dummass, they're often seen trying to get out of a hole by digging a bigger one.

3222 Kyogle Rd, Mt Burrell, NSW

Catch the glorious vision! Heal the masses, join a Cannabis Community with a pioneering academic campus growing weed on 3,200 acres, but be warned: "Nimbin University", to be developed lawlessly at a “secret location”, is using the street address of Mark Darwin's infamous property scam - 3222 Kyogle Rd, Mt Burrell.
 

At first, Charmaster Dolph denied his ties with Mark Darwin. He said the "uni" was his own initiative and the Bully-Bully-Boyz were trying to "take over his land and hemp crop". He now says they they gave him a shop at Mt Burrell, and promised to pay him $500 a week to set up the "Cannabis Community University". But after one payment he got no more money from them.

10,000 people are now offered a unique opportunity to join Dolph and heal the sick, just by registering personal details in the growing data-base of "Nimbin University Cannabis Community".

It only costs $1 to bite the apple...
