Before reading this webpage, please go to

and read an expose` of Ms Grubisa which appeared in 'THE AGE" on Sunday
November 29, 2020, by award-winning journalist Richard Baker. The
article just about says it all, except for information that we have
concerning her working relationship with a serial conman
Douglas Graeme McCoy.
Latest: May 31, 2021: Grubisa features on Channel 9's 'A Current Affair' program. Victims interviewed claim they have proof of her frauds.
Watch here.
Latest: May 5, 2021: ASIC cancel Grubisa licence.

The article cited above had a follow-up article by Richard Baker, also in "The Age", on Sunday December 6 2020.

There seems to be few limits for "Ms Grub" in her dubious money-making
endeavours.It seems clear from this article that she appeals to
desperate people, or creates desperation and fear into ordinary people
with misleading comments about what governments might do to their
savings and superannuation during this Covid 19 crisis.
A
third article
by Richard Baker published in the Sydney Morning Herald today (Jan 31
2021) exposes Grubisa's links to disgraced and criminal former Deputy
Mayor of Auburn NSW, Salim Mehajer. Wikifrauds has known of this
transaction since late 2018, and is discussed
here.

Bogoevski
Bogoevski introduced an investor to
Dale Wilkinson who owns Unity Funding, who in turn introduced the
investor to Grubisa, who was at the time acting for the end-borrower,
Salim Mehajer. From
our viewpoint it seems that Grubisa has long been involved in some very
dubious dealings with known con artists like McCoy mentioned elsewhere in Wikifrauds, Bogoevski, and
disbarred lawyer Clarence Boyd Nelson and others. Contact us for further information

A must listen to discussion:
Fake testimonials: The on-line publication "Independent Australia" (
IA)
has uncovered evidence that Grubisa and her DG Institute have used fake
reviews to promote her business. In an article by editor David Donovan
on October 28 this year,
IA has produced the following details of the phoney reviews on
"Quora", which readers can read
here. Here's the summary:
- Angelina Carnarvon, claimed to work for law firm Civic
Legal in WA yet she has never worked there and lives in Port Douglas.
Carnarvon has now been banned from Quora.
- A "Jack Morrison", real estate agent, posted a video on Quora. Turns out his real name is Soly Halabi from the USA. Halabi and AI have had the Jack Morrison profile deleted from Quora.
- Mary Dunn, former
accountant at National Australia Bank, identified herself with an
uploaded photo of someone else, a Marcia Page, also from the USA. Dunn
is now banned from Quora also.
-
Elijah Gyles, Economics Graduate WA University and with Australian Real
Estate, but his uploaded photo on Quora is of one J D Erb, also a real
etate guy from the USA. Gyles is also now banned from Quora.
-
Charlotte Cole and Jesse Bayliss, financial analyst of 15 years, both
now banned from Quora, but both gave favourable revew of DG Institue
and Grubisa.
Check
this link
to a Quora posting which calls into question the grubby tactics of
Ms
Grubisa and her parents, both convicted fraudsters, and both of whom
still work for her.
Independent Australia claim
they have found more "favorable" reviews by people whose photos are of
other people. It seems that a Google search using the catchwords "buy
Quora Reviews" returns hundreds of sellers of upside reviews.
Apparently a business can easily manipulate its public profile. How
grubby can a business be???
Another posting worth reading: This relates to the validity of DGI's Power of Attorney forms.

Threats:
We contacted one of Grubisa's disciples, Doug McCoy, by email last week to enquire
about his relationship with Grubisa. Pasted below is his exact reply:
"This is humiliating for you to even bring this up!! It clearly shows you know nothing about investigations!! Dom is purely using the list the Courts supply and print
themselves. People can get the lists themselves from the Courts.
See just saves time for her students.I am nothing to do with this business, but as a friend I am happy
to help Dominque or her family if they even needed me. You can show the world just how silly you are IF you decide to
pick on Dominique. She has the ABSOLUTE NICES Parents. They are
lovely people. BOTH Highly Qualified Solicitors and Dom herself is
retired from being a Barrister.
Just a friendly warning: Not that you are a friend of anyone
that I know?? BUT, Dom's dad would make your life like HELL. He is an
incredible Lawyer and not someone you would want to clash with.
WARNING: DO NOT UPSET HIS DAUGHTER or Family!!!"
Well,
if this is not a direct threat by McCoy or an indirect proxy threat by
Grubisa, then we don't know what a threat is. Either McCoy is stupid or
he thinks we are. Grubisa's parents were both struck-off as lawyers for
fraud related offences.
And what's more, we know that McCoy was a feature speaker at the DG
Institute, and that from there he managed to con one particular elderly
woman out of a fortune.
A narrative from one of McCoy's victims, now aged 92.
This is from emails to us from Mrs Rothery, and shows how Doug McCoy
used Grubisa's tactics to con her out of everything she had.:
Email to Wikifrauds dated Feb 4, 2021 ". . Brad Alfred warned me
of a scam being perpetrated on the Gold Coast against vulnerable oldies & my
response at that moment with McCoy sitting near me was "Oh Brad, it's too
late. They've already got all my money". Doug didn't even raise an eyebrow
or ever admit he was in the scam!!! So, note well. He knew that $50,000 he
"borrowed" that October- he KNEW quite well that it was the last of
my money because HE WAS THE ONE WHO DROVE ME TO WHERE WAS THE OFFICE OF THE
PERSON WHO WAS PAYING ME ON THE SALE OF THE PROPERTY I HAD IN BANORA
POINT!! So he KNEW the exact amount of that Bank cheque as I had to put
it into my account & withdraw sufficient to pay for the washing machine I
had had ALDI set aside for me & then he took me to pick it up at Tweed
Heads & bring it to my place".
This
demonstrates the use of Grubisa's tactics in searching default and
court listings to find vulnerable people with some distressed assets.
And it shows just how low McCoy stooped to get her money - he even
drove her to collect the money!
Further:
"It
was $50,000 he "borrowed from me with a guarantee IF HE DID NOT REPAY IN
FULL IT WOULD AMOUNT AN EXTRA $5,000 PER MONTH ON TOP. HE MADE UP THE CONTRACT
NOT ANY LAWYER & HE ASSURED ME THAT I WOULD HAVE IT BEFORE CHRISTMAS of
that year assuring me it was very short term to pay wages to the group who had
done the labour at the property in Wellington.
Of course at the time & this is over 4'-5
years ago, at that time I did not know that he was part of the FORSYTHE set-up
& had been involved right from the start so he fleeced me both ways. From
that personal loan & from his cut of my hard-earned & saved money over
many years!!! And he it was who brought Jim Boguevski (?) to my place so he was
in on it even before it even got under way".
We have repeatedly asked the question
of McCoy that if he earns eleven million per year as he has publicly
claimed many times, why did he need to borrow a mere $50,000 from an
old lady?
More will be published about the victims of McCoy's and Grubisa's tactics. .
Three elderly women done out of their assets!
