This message has been authored collaboratively by both John and I:

Surprise, surprise, surprise: the man who promised incessantly, along with Graeme White, to not "abandon" us has run off, without updating us in a year.

Peter Lord is a pathological liar and an inveterate psychopath. Psychopathy is a gross indifference to the interests, resources, feelings and livelihoods of others. Peter demonstrates the qualities of psychopathy by deliberately using and manipulating others to fund his self-entitlement and grandiose delusions of business acumen:
  • He gets $600,000+ from the Australian governments for an equine school through The International Equine Group that he doesn't even enrol any students in for about a year. Another $600,000+ mostly comes from private investors. He's automatically wasted a pile of taxpayer and investor money.
  • He rips off Andrea and others with interests in Biocel Australia/NZ. Even gets them to invest in his non-existent school.
  • Canbet was going bankrupt, they refuse to process withdrawals, claiming they can't, and then ask people for MORE deposited money via a bonus that was so ridiculously "generous" that no other "huge" books like Bet365, William Hill and others would offer it in a million years with a billion stringent conditions. AT LEAST $1.2 million down the drain, not including those who didn't complain or can't speak up using the English language (Asians, Eastern Europeans and others).
  • Results International fails. What sort of results does this man have, other than INCESSANTLY losing others' money?


It doesn't matter. Lord's wife's Facebook "friends" have been feeding us information for weeks, as have some members of his local surf club and the club where he coached (the great sport of) rugby league. We lifted the lists and URL's before they deleted their profiles again. Many people who know the couple really despise Peter. Being involved in horsing and other communities, which tend to be tight-knit, they have to reserve and restrain their disdain. We've learnt more about Lord's wider personality, his desperate attempts to present the veneer of a "wealthy man", his shameless self-promotion to, say, parents of his son's league teams (which he seems to have coached multiple times) and a host of other narcissistic traits. One parent said, "He never took an opportunity not to brag about something he had done or was going to do."

John and I are looking for outside assistance in drawing up the names of every Federal, State and Territory politician in Australia, plus every UK politician. We will email them all with our story and the impact Peter's abandonment had on us, having already lost our money. It will be 1500 odd people. We need reform to prevent this from happening to anyone else.

We will not take this insult, tantamount to spitting in the faces of EVERY Canbet customer for every dollar/Euro/pound/rupee they have lost, idly. We will get justice.
