This page has been developed so
that you, the media and the Veteran population can show your input
to exposing all bogus veterans. To be able to
contribute to this area all you have to do is this.
Keep your eye on your local newspapers. Where
the media has exposed a bogus Veteran, copy the article and scan it
in colour at no less than 300 DPI as a jpg image and send it to
us. The article must be
clean, that is free from folds and biro or highlight marks.
It must show the following
detail: The name of the
newspaper/media outlet and the reporter
The date the article was published, and
The State or Territory it was published in.
All articles will be added to this area and they
will be included as our Media Wall of Shame. All
articles shown remain the property of the media outlet that
created it. If a media centre has an objection to us using
an article please advise the site at
enquiries@anzmi.net
and it will be
removed on your request.
CPMH appreciates the efforts of
all media outlets in Australia and New Zealand for exposing bogus
Veterans to Australia, New Zealand and through the
site, the world.
They must be stopped and punished to the full extent of the law.
Your assistance in exposing them in the media is assisting in this
task. Some articles
below have been submitted anonymously and did not include the name
of the media outlet or the date the article was published.
If you find that one of these articles is yours then please advise
the details and it will be amended to reflect your newspaper and
reporter.
If you don't
wish to contact the DVA yourself then please feel free
to give us the information and we will pass it on for
you. Your identity will remain confidential

We at CPMH thank Amelia Bentley,
reporter, and the Gold Coast Bulletin for highlighting
these people. Keep up the good work and take your
cameras to the next Veteran march on the Gold Coast as
you will find more.

 Busted
by the media 6 Feb 2005, Geoff McGibbon is finally
exposed. However the story below varies
vastly to the information supplied to the reporter so
much so that this story is considered in the majority, to be
a pack of lies, seemingly concocted by the said reporter
in an attempt to encourage the Veteran community to
support him in having an OAM awarded to Geoff McGibbon
by the RLSS removed. This OAM award has
nothing to do with McGibbon's Military service both
genuine or bogus and therefore CPMH consider that
Veterans should not support the reporter in attempting
to have the award removed unless they do so in their
capacity as concerned citizens. Please read this
media story and then reflect back on what we have
provided under McGibbon on the cases pages and then you
make up your mind if you wish to support this reporter. Below is the original photo,
not of good quality, however, you can see the medals on
his chest and they are the medals issued for service in
Viet Nam. Above the medals is a fake set of gold
SAS wings. An illegal item of dress in medal
protocol, produced by unscrupulous medal dealers that
the government fail to monitor in their production of
medals and accoutrements that are available for sale to
the general public and can be purchased and worn by the
bogus Veterans like McGibbon.
This photograph was supplied as you
see it below to the reporter. He cropped it above
the medals......read what he has written in the media
article below after doing this.
the articles above are from The Brisbane
Sunday Mail, 6 Feb 2005
Now that you have read all of the facts
[truth] as shown by CPMH and read the above story have
you made up your mind about the OAM? CPMH would be
interested in hearing from the "Peers who were
infuriated about the award and are asking for it to be
rescinded" as written in the above article, or are you
too a figment of the imagination of this reporter?
The inappropriate behaviour of McGibbon falsely claiming
to be a Viet Nam Veteran has nothing to do with his
obvious outstanding service to the RLSS, who nominated
him for the this award.
It is the opinion of CPMH that Veterans
should not assist this reporter with his manipulative
way of trying to use you for his aim. The
ball is in your court to make a decision here, just bear
in mind that even though McGibbon has claimed false
service in the past, he has been exposed for it on these
pages. Maybe one day he will be charged for this
as well under the Defence Act and our action will be
complete. Irrespective
of this he is still a genuine Veteran with valid
operational service and medals and remains a part of our
unique community. Exposure of absolute frauds and
those who claim service they do not have an entitlement
to is what we are about, but we will also protect what
is rightfully earned by one of our own and falsely
reported in the media.
This media report has now prompted CPMH
to monitor all Veteran related stories produced by this
reporter and if he continues to report incorrect
information he will be given his own wall of shame here
amongst the bogus Veterans and hopefully the television
media will air what we provide about him and his trumped
up reporting. You can assist us by forwarding
anything he publishes on Military and Veteran matters in
your home location. Close ranks further and
protect all Veterans from false and misleading
reporting.
Lobby the Federal Police Minister and ask
why the Federal Police fail to act in charging bogus
veterans with:
impersonating a serviceperson, in this
case a returned Viet Nam Veteran, and
wearing medals to which they have no entitlement.
Had they done this in accordance with the Defence Act a
conviction would have been recorded against McGibbon
which surely would have seen his credibility for the OAM
refused.

This is your chance to
assist the us and the police in catching a bogus SAS Veteran con
artist and possible bogus biker. Read the story
below and if you know where
this man or his current vehicle is contact the site and we will
pass on the information for you. Additional information
that has just come to hand on our bogus SAS hero is:
He uses the name of Michael Paggett - this is not his
real name.
He has tattoos of:
SAS "who dares wins" and a Gypsy Joker biker tattoo. It is presumed
that he is wearing this tattoo without being a member of
the club. As well as these he has a tattoo "Nina"
on his left thumb and "Angela" on his right wrist
accompanied with stars. A shark on his shoulder
and a yin and yang sign on his chest. The vehicle
he had the SAS 22 registration on, a black Ford XR8
utility has been abandoned in Brisbane and he also
dumped his dog, his supposed "best friend", a large Rottweiler in Cairns. Read
the full story on this hero by clicking on the

is currently residing please contact us using

Note the comment by Terry O'Gorman, civil
libertarian, recently convicted for driving under the influence of
alcohol in Brisbane, Queensland. O'Gorman is well qualified
to make this statement, [not]. He has never served in any of
Australia's Armed services.
Read the articles below and see
if you perceive that Mr O'Gorman's claims that impostors have a
"medical problem" are true or are they as we see them, spineless
people who do not have the intestinal fortitude to serve this
nation for fear of being hurt or possibly killed in the line of
duty, or as one who is using Veteran status fraudulently for
monetary gain on the backs of real servicepersons.

This man is an impostor. He is not known by US

New Zealand Herald 23 April 2002
even in death these bogus veterans
claim Veteran status. We wonder if the RSL paid for his
headstone?
This from the Fairfield Newspaper, let
us hope more ESO's take as firm a stand as Fairfield RSL
has, well done.
and there you see them. Bogus Veterans who steal the honour,
service and awards of genuine Veterans. If you see one in
your local newspaper please don't hesitate to cut it out and
forward it to us in the format stated at the beginning of this
page. This is your chance to expose some of these fraudulent
people in our ranks.
