'Boobies Rock' cancer-scamming scumbag jailed for two weeks after launching new scholarship scam

In Colorado, a scamming sonofabitch charged with collecting about $2 million through sales of breast-cancer-awareness merchandise, none of which helped breast cancer charities, has been sentenced to 14 days in jail. We wrote about this dirtbag back in 2012, when the Illinois state attorney general began investigating his cancer-scam activities.

The Denver Post today reports that Adam Cole Shyrock was jailed for running a new scam in violation of a court order. He wrote a $36,000 check on a frozen Wells Fargo bank account to a T-shirt manufacturer to make t-shirts for “I Heart This Bar,” a new scheme purporting to raise money for college scholarships. Man, some people never learn. Snip:

Shryock, the founder of Boobies Rock!, The Se7ven Group and Say No 2 Cancer, allegedly held promotions all over the country, mostly in bars, and hired promotional models to “take donations” on behalf of Boobies Rock, saying the company was raising money for breast-cancer nonprofit groups.

The models sold T-shirts, beer koozies, bracelets and other items with pro-breast or anti-cancer images and slogans.

According to court documents, the models told bar owners and customers that 40 to 90 percent of donations would go to cancer-related charities.

Models raising money for the fake scholarship fund sold “I Heart This Bar” shirts in stadium parking lots.

“In reality, the ‘scholarship fund’ was nothing more than a cash bonus for the promotional managers and the entire scheme ran afoul of the court’s orders,” Attorney General John Suthers said in a statement Thursday.
