Buyer Beware

Pat Mazza: Arrested for Defamation and Threats (Update 2024)

Pat Mazza is a manifestation coach arrested last year for posting defamatory content on multiple websites.

These criminals transfer false and harmful information that harms the reputation of the individual or business. These illegal activities must be put and an end. This may also injure the third’s party reputation. 

Toronto police said that they conducted the investigation in the O’Connor Dr. area and Ralston Ave. They alleged that Pat Mazza posted defamatory content, targeting multiple people between August 2020 and March 2021. 

27/11/2023 Update
As of now, Pat Mazza has not responded, nor has he apologized for his misdeeds. He has ignored our efforts to highlight the problems faced by their victims. Furthermore, he has only focused on propagating his fake PR.

Furthermore, police allege Pat was sending threatening texts to his victims.

They arrested Pasqualino Mazza aka Pat Mazza Toronto in March 2021. Also, they charged him with three counts of criminal harassment and 6 counts of uttering threats.  

Who is Pat Mazza? 

Pat Mazza

According to his LinkedIn profile, Pat is a self-help guru and a Vice President at Mazza Developments, a Canadian firm. 

However, there is no information available online on Mazza Developments. This raises suspicion on the legitimacy of the firm. 

Furthermore, Pat’s profile say he used to work as a sales executive in Microsoft

This is worth noting because in his social media posts, Pat keeps mentioning that he used to work at Microsoft and hence, is a very credible person. 

However, working as a sales executive at Microsoft doesn’t indicate that Pat Mazza is a reliable coach. 

He has also worked at Google as a Customer Development Representative. Again, it suggests he doesn’t have much experience in working at senior or management roles. 

His profile shows he is a self-proclaimed guru who used to post defamatory content to threaten people. 

Conclusion: 

Obviously, after checking the Pat Mazza profile, it’s obvious that he is not a reliable person. The man was arrested for threatening people and posting defamatory content online. 

Now, he claims to be a guru who helps businesses grow. 

However, you should be wary of fake gurus. The industry is full of “self-proclaimed” experts who offer zero value to their audience. 

For example, Aaron Sansoni is an Australian fake guru who charges people thousands of dollars for sharing his knowledge. His victims share that Aaron only shares plagiarized content and offers no value whatsoever. 

It seems Pat Mazza is a fake guru like Aaron as well. Hence, avoid him.

A Cheap Criminal

There’s no denying that Pat Mazza is a criminal. Toronto police arrested him last year for posting defamatory content online and sending threatening messages. Now, he claims to be a manifestation guru which seems like another lie.

  1. After reading this article it is clear all those who have joined the classes have wasted their time and money. And it is also a warning for others not to pick blindly anything from the market.

  2. My money was wasted after joining classes of Pat, he never forced me on explaining something.

  3. My experience with one of these fake gurus was the worst when he tried to decentralize the main topics and keep promoting his packages for bringing new students, but he never put the effort to make us learn something related to the topic.

  4. Now we can never trust any of these gurus online, the article has made me feel terrified to trust these online influencers, Pat Mazza is a complete scammer, this hypocrite should be arrested for his crime.

  5. This is 100% a criminal, fooling people after double ditching them with fake sort of knowledge is unacceptable.

  6. This man is making thousands after scamming his innocent people.

  7. This man is faking his personality with a fake guru and trying to advertise himself as a professional teacher, but the truth is completely the opposite.

  8. If you are willing to invest your money and time with this fake guru then you will regret submitting your money to this fake guru with zero experience and knowledge.

  9. He is a guru by himself having no work experience according to their past, he is only pulling the wool over the eyes of his users.

  10. Pat worked for Microsoft being a sales executive which means he doesn’t have any experience with management tasks. He can’t be trusted with any of the higher posts and has no experience in the field.

  11. He is running Mazza developments without any legal registration, even he is making his people suffer after paying him for the classes. He is just a bragger wasting people’s time.

  12. The firm isn’t registered with some governmental officials which raise the question of the legitimacy of the firm.

  13. First, you will commit dangerous activities, and when it is being exposed you will start harassing them, the police should make him feel the real harassment during the investigation.

    I want to thank the publisher of the article for perfectly explaining the relationship between Pat Mazza and his arrest. As I am one of the investors of his investment scam I can understand what it feels like after realizing the fact that you were investing in a scheme that isn’t real. The emails were designed just to make the company seem legitimate. You thought it would provide you with returns but it only sent funds to the company so that they can grow instead of providing the profit they were enjoying themselves. I lost most of my savings just in the hope of earning millions.

  17. Pat used to promote fraudulent investments. He was sued when he scammed a guy out of $100,000 in 2020. You think the man has changed now? Just look at the following evidence:

    • I’ve read that whole document Sam W. That is a cease and desist order that is telling him to not sell securities in Vermont. There is nothing there that shows any proof of a scam. There is no evidence.

    It’s obvious that Pat Mazza or his PR team are writing all of these 5-star comments. If anyone is interested in doing business with this guy just google PASQUALINO MAZZA EVOLUTION MENTOR CAPITAL.

    You will see the various legal dockets and consent orders released against him for the scam he ran for the last few years.

    Here is the judgement on Pat Mazza:

    IN THE MATTER OF
    EVOLUTION MENTOR CAPITAL INC.
    AND PASQUALINO (PATRICK) MICHAEL MAZZA
    Timothy Moseley, Vice-Chair and Chair of the Panel

    File No. 2020-19

    September 28, 2020

    ORDER
    (Subsections 127(8) and 127(1) of the
    Securities Act, RSO 1990 c S.5)

    WHEREAS the Ontario Securities Commission held a hearing in writing to consider a motion by Staff of the Commission (Staff) to further extend a temporary order dated June 17, 2020, and extended on June 30, 2020, against the Respondents;

    ON READING the materials filed by Staff and on considering that the Respondents consent to the making of this order;

    IT IS ORDERED:

    pursuant to subsection 127(8) and paragraph 2 of subsection 127(1) of the Securities Act, RSO 1990 c S.5 (the Act), that until December 30, 2020, all trading in any securities by the Respondents shall cease; and
    pursuant to subsection 127(8) and paragraph 3 of subsection 127(1) of the Act, that until December 30, 2020, any exemptions contained in Ontario securities law do not apply to the Respondents.

    It’s evidence of Pat Mazza’s scams. No matter how many fake comments he adds here, he can’t change the truth.

    + PROS: None, just look up "Evolution Mentor Capital Securities Commission" and you will see all the orders released against him
    - CONS: Con artist Barred from promoting any securities in Canada in the future

    • I was very upset to know that Pasqualino Mazza’s scheme was nothing more than a way to scam more people. My experience was worse with Evolution Mentor Capital than with any other investing company.

  19. I don’t know what you are trying to accomplish with this fake gripeo page. It’s obvious one person is making the exact same fake negative comments under different names.

    You think he even cares about your opinion? I doubt it, he’s probably laughing if he’s even wasted his time reading this. Like someone else wrote it says more about you for taking the time to write this. Try therapy maybe?

    I know one of the victims he targed. The man is heinous. He has no regard for others. I bet all of these 5 star reviews are from him or his friends because nobody can ever call him a friendly guy.

    This man was posting lies about my friend and wanted them to pay him. He has no morals or ethics.

    Pat Mazza is a fake guru and an extortionist.

    The man promotes manifestation for Christ’s sake. It is not even a serious profession. But I don’t like the fact that he extorted numerous people in Toronto by posting defamatory content. That’s pure evil.

    Pat Mazza is a cheap extortionist who can stoop to the lowest levels for making a small buck. He used to post extremely defamatory content about people online and harass them until they paid him something. Now, he markets himself as some sort of a sales guru or something. But that’s all smoke and mirrors.
