I read the court report several times and what it
Post# of 12467
CC-2: We are not hoarding we are producing and
selling as produced
ROMANO: I know. So can we still produce 3m?
CC-2: Waiting for contract
I believe this representation was false.
I have seen no indication that ROMANO supplied respirators to CC-2
or CC-2 Company-1. To the contrary, ROMANO attempted to acquire
respirators from CC-2
Before sending the “proforma
invoice” and contract described above, on or about March 31, 2020,
CC-2 emailed ROMANO a link to a website that warned that the
Peruvian exporter was a “scammer.” The next day, on or about April
1, 2020, CC-2 sent ROMANO the “proforma invoice,” with the subject
line, “For your eyes only.” In an April 4, 2020, text message to
CC-2, ROMANO stated, “I haven’t believed anyone. Not even our guy
in Peru lol. . . . We need to verify orders.”
