Class Action / Victim Liaison
This page is a coordination point for individuals and organisations who believe they have suffered financial, commercial, or reputational harm connected to projects controlled by or closely associated with Chad Eugene Willis and related entities (including, but not limited to, Plus Brand Industries Inc., Plus Brand, Agua Plus, Agua Plus Alkaline, and prior ventures).
It is designed to help potential claimants, legal teams, and regulators quickly understand the available material, identify whether their experience fits known patterns, and connect with others through appropriate legal channels. Submissions here link directly into the Evidence Vault (Victim Impact & Loss Summaries), Registry & Records, and Timeline of Conduct so that individual experiences can be anchored to the wider pattern.
The liaison function is intended for:
- Individuals who provided funds, products, or services in reliance on promises of repayment, profit share, licensing revenue, or “imminent funding”.
- Suppliers, distributors, retailers, and sponsors who entered into commercial arrangements and experienced non-payment, repeated deferrals, or material misrepresentation.
- Current or former staff, contractors, or associates with first-hand knowledge of internal practices that may be relevant to regulators or class-action counsel.
- Institutional stakeholders (funds, family offices, companies) exposed through investments, notes, or high-value commercial agreements.
Submissions can cover any specific, factual experience where you believe you were misled, harmed, or exposed to unacceptable risk. Examples include:
- Funds provided (directly or via intermediaries) for investment, project participation, licensing, or “bridge finance” that were not repaid as promised.
- Promissory notes, side letters, or informal agreements tied to future events (e.g. “major deal closing”, “settlement proceeds”, “roll-out in X market”) that did not materialise.
- Supply, distribution, or sponsorship deals where invoices remained unpaid, payments were repeatedly deferred, or material terms were changed without agreement.
- Use of your name, brand, reputation, or assets in ways you did not authorise or that materially differed from what you were told.
- Any interaction where you were explicitly told that regulatory, criminal-history, or prohibition issues did not exist, or were minimised in ways you later discovered were untrue.
Allegations should be anchored to dates, documents, and concrete events wherever possible. Opinions and feelings are understood, but documents, numbers, and timelines are what legal teams and regulators rely on.
To make your account usable for a potential class action, regulatory complaint, or coordinated legal strategy, please try to include:
- Who you dealt with: names of people and entities (companies / brands) involved.
- Approximate dates: when first contact occurred, when funds were sent, when agreements were signed, and when problems started.
- Amounts: how much money, product, or value was involved (even approximate ranges are useful).
- Key documents: contracts, term sheets, promissory notes, invoices, statements, screenshots of offers, or other written assurances.
- Key communications: brief extracts from emails, messages, or letters that clearly show promises made, explanations given, or reasons for non-payment.
- Jurisdiction: where you are based and where the deal was nominally located (country / state).
- Current status: whether you have already taken legal action, received partial payment, or lodged complaints with authorities.
You do not need to write a perfect legal summary. A clear, honest account with dates, numbers, and supporting documents is far more valuable than a polished narrative.
Material submitted through this page may be used to:
- Identify overlapping fact patterns between different victims and counterparties.
- Map exposure by jurisdiction, time period, and transaction type (investments, notes, licensing, supply, sponsorship, etc.).
- Prepare structured summaries for regulators and law-enforcement agencies who request supporting evidence.
- Support the formation of one or more class actions or coordinated civil claims in relevant jurisdictions.
- Feed anonymised data into the Victim Impact & Loss Summaries group in the Evidence Vault, and, where appropriate, into the Registry & Records and Timeline of Conduct pages.
No submission on this page automatically joins you to a class action or creates any legal obligation. It simply ensures that your experience is logged and available for review by appropriate legal professionals if and when proceedings are organised.
This site is an independent archival and coordination project. It is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not create a lawyer–client relationship with you. Any legal steps you take should be made in consultation with qualified counsel in your jurisdiction.
- Submissions are treated as confidential by default and used primarily in anonymised or aggregated form when preparing public materials.
- Identifying details (names, contact information, precise transaction references) are reserved for regulators, law-enforcement agencies, and legal teams who formally engage with the archive.
- Victims will not be publicly named on this site without their explicit written consent.
- Do not send passwords, full bank logins, or unnecessary copies of highly sensitive personal ID unless specifically requested by a lawyer you have engaged.
If law-enforcement or regulatory bodies directly request your materials, they may contact you via details you choose to supply (email / phone / postal address). You remain free to decide how and whether you engage with them.
To lodge your experience for inclusion in the archive and potential class-action coordination:
- Use the secure form on the Class Action / Victim Liaison page (if enabled in your region), or the encrypted contact channel on the Contact page.
- Clearly mark your message with a subject such as “Class Action – Confidential Submission”.
- Attach key documents in PDF or image form where possible, and include a brief covering summary as outlined above.
If you already have a lawyer, you may prefer to have them contact the archive directly via the Law Enforcement / Legal Contact channel to request access to relevant materials.
Regulators, law-enforcement bodies, and class-action or litigation firms seeking access to structured datasets, redacted case summaries, or supporting documentation for specific complainants can use the channels described on:
- Law Enforcement – for formal requests, subpoenas, or evidentiary coordination.
- Press Kit – for journalists and investigative outlets seeking background context.
- Evidence Vault & Source Index – for an overview of archived material categories and exhibit groups.
Where necessary, document hashes and date-stamped capture logs can be supplied to validate integrity and chain-of-custody for digital materials.
Accuracy note: This page describes processes and categories rather than adjudicating individual disputes. Each submission remains the responsibility of the person providing it, and all parties are encouraged to seek independent legal advice before making decisions based on any material referenced here.
