These are the contact details for the French police who have already investigated Johnny Grant and Kate Marsh.
As per previous post, they raided The Art Farm after a group who had turned up for a course there demanded their money back. So they will hopefully follow up other cases.
I will be contacting them myself.
best of luck

Can you help me please??
Cat
Has anybody had any luck getting anything back from him? I was with the group this past summer that lost nearl $3,600 American each to the "all so amazing Art Farm" headed by Willy Wonka himself (except way more of an a** hole). Last I heard the French police hadn't charged them with anything and released all their belongings to them. . . are there any new developments in the matter??
Hello I was also in the group that lost around $3000 this summer. I recieved my first deposit back but I am still waiting to hear from Paypal on the rest (3 months later)...it seems they just don't want to help me. If any one has any details or how to contact Kate Marsh please forward them to me! Thanks! gkiacovelli@yahoo.com
hello guys,
i was a volunteer in april to june 2009. im sorry to hear that kate and johnny had to take these kind of messures at all. i was even there the day they met.
the art farm would have been a great project but johnny wasnt a good teacher. when i was there he had plenty of fall outs with the volunteers and the people on courses. a girl once left a day after without saying anything. never found out if she wanted a refund. he didnt really care about the people.
the work there was hard but i learned a lot as well. and the place nevertheless was magical for me. many things happend. but i was glad to leave from there as johnny and me had a fall out as well. he didnt take off any money from me as i was a volunteer. i guess they werent that corrupted yet or desperate. because the amounts a money you guys are talking about are not what they charged while i was there. they must have prepared other programs afterwards.
i tell you be glad that you only lost money. the psychologocal games johnny was up to where giving me more harm in the end as i thought. he is suffering from borderline syndrom i guess.
to the bath tub donators. they were restoring bathtubs when i was there. we went to marseilles to pick one up. one weekend i stayed on the art farm because he went to the uk to deliver another. i think it all run out of hand. i quite shocked the story turned out like that.
to be honest as i know johnny you wont see any money unless the police is seriouly involved. johnny hates most people. strange ways...
good luck

www.nakedsax.com is connected to eco village connected to chateau vert connected to kate marsh connected to johnny grant. if you click on any link for their old scam websites such as www.1000members.com it will bring you to nakedsax. I'm sure this is their next scam. Just trying to create the buzz.the police stopped the art farm but they can't stop them from internet fraud. Naked Sax is truly his next scam. Originally it was the chateau in france, but I think the police put a kabosh on that.
I to went there. It was a strange place. I know Kate from back home and know that she has a new business called www.captainawesomesemporium.com.au
i met Johnny here last week in Noosa Qld Australia. He has a site at www.saxaflute.com.au
he smells shonky!
Hi Anonymous 4 April. So you met him in Australia? How interesting. I've seen the saxaflute website, it seems pretty harmless thank goodness.
Do you by any chance know what address he's staying at? It would be very useful for legal reasons...

Hi guys,
I paid 200 pounds for a course a couple of years ago but I had to cancel for personal reasons. They said that they would give me a free open week some time when I wished and I was hoping to take it up this summer. Obviously this will not happen now after reading this blog. But what is the situation with the police? Did anyone get their money back?
Take care all.....
Johnny Grant sell saxa-flutes at the large Eumundi markets in Queensland Australia. I bought one from him. I think the market on every Wednesday and Saturday. His business card say www.info@saxaflute.com.
He seemed like nice guy, but it is not good if he must pay money to the people.
He was selling saxaflutes in Camden Market in London on Saturday 30th October.
It's really sad that so many had a bad experience. I received my bath am still delighted by it, I am very sad he failed and so many lost out to him. Good Luck to all
Johnny 'Grant' is really Johnny Rekowski from Bath,UK. A scam artist who was deported from the US several times but always managed to slip back into the country via Canada. Along the way, he had a few kids(with different women) whom he abandoned.
That is fascinating, good detective work. Can you email me at juliette.garside@tiscali.co.uk?
It is a shame that you post such things on your blog. You began as a person that required a refund and ended up in distroying someones life. Giving anyone a platform to leave dirt whether true or false. I think that the internet has become a place of pain and not of truth. The last blog was left by a Canadian artist by the name of Kim Lake who has a history of not allowing John to se his child as the mother was her lesbian lover. When the child reached out to John he was met with a death on Horby Island. Your blog has gone into waters which are deeper than you have intended.
You have chosen to wreck lives and have infact shown that you have no heart.
I have not hear that name for years. It is actally Jan Bukowski who was very well known in Bath. Together with Roger Spurrell they ran illegal raves and sold drugs. Rumours in the town were they made there name by being involved in the Brinks Matt Bullion robbery. Both men disappeared for many years.
I just saw this blog, I had the same problem and paid 200 pound for courses that was cancelled, beside I had paid for flight and hotel to come to France and I lost all those money. is anybody knows if police captures these two hustler?
