Profits From Okanagan-Based Ponzi Scheme Targeted by B.C. Supreme Court

The trustee has already recovered $1.4 million from 28 investors and seeks another $2.5 million from the last 12 cases.

  • On July 3, Justice Shelley Fitzpatrick approved a new claims-based procedure to recover funds from the 12 remaining "net winners" of a Kelowna-based Ponzi scheme.
  • Curtis Gordon Quigley operated the fraudulent investment scheme from 2008 to 2020, causing 84 investors to lose a combined total of more than $8.3 million.
  • The Trustee recovered $528,000 from Quigley's assets but still seeks $2.5 million from the final dozen winners, including nearly $780,000 from Kathleen Treadgold.
  • Retrieving "unjust enrichment and money" aims to compensate those who lost funds during the scheme, according to Justice Fitzpatrick's ruling.
  • Although some winners challenged the process, Justice Fitzpatrick ruled the Trustee's approach "properly and fairly balances the interests" of all parties involved in this difficult situation.
