Glasgow, Lanarkshire Mar 24, 2024 (Issuewire.com) - In the aftermath of what has been dubbed the disastrous "Willy's chocolate experience event," a group of individuals from across the internet have come under scrutiny for their actions on social media. One such group is the House of Illuminati Scam Facebook group, which was initially formed to seek refunds for the failed event. However, it appears their activities have evolved into something far more contentious.
Founded by Stuart Sinclair's of Dundee, Yulia Burns, a Russian expatriate, and Yvonne Hay, the group's stated mission was for a collective refund effort. The event in question, attended by families including Sinclair with his daughter and Hay with her granddaughter, left many disillusioned and seeking recompense.
Yet, allegations have emerged from sources that suggests the group's focus has shifted towards spreading negativity and hate against the event's organizer House of Illuminati , particularly targeting the sole director Billy Coull. Coull, appearing on recent documentary for channel 5 was visibly broken, expressed his dismay and the toll it has taken on his.
Amidst the group's controversial activities, a former member shared anonymously, "I joined for the memes and laughed at first. But it quickly became clear that the aim was to destroy Billy. I regret it now, seeing the impact."
Fran showed a number of posts posted on both her personal page and in the house of illuminati scam group. One post from Yulia Burns, one of the group's administrators, voiced frustration over the group's direction stating “their original intent was not merely to post humorous content but to take practical action against Coull.”
Jack Proctor from Coatbridge who aall so appeared in the Channel 5 documentary Wonka: The Scandal that rocked Britain that was broadcast on Saturday 6th March.
Jack head of creative at TEDx Glasgow. Proctor, who comes across as cool headed in the program, reveals a much darker side as he tried to stir a protest at the family home of Coull as he commented “we could arrange to meet outside his house and cause a scene.”
A member called ME who doesn't want to be named said who joined the group said:
“No one in the group seemed to care about the man, it's not a nice sight to see. The people in the group have no humanity, no care, it's sickening.”
”I don’t care about the money I have lost at this stage. What is 38 quid compared to a human life , People on that page are saying that he’s acting”.
Showing a screenshot of what the private group members see one the groups members said “Honestly sick of people defending Billy Coull on this page” and along with posts from Yvonne Hays “I can see through the b******shit”.
Yet, amidst the outcry, there are voices of concern and empathy for Coull, with community members expressing genuine worry for his welfare, on the page a member raised concerns that, “In all the videos I have seen Billy is clearly suffering with some form of breakdown,”
However, that's far from it all. Another post on reddit, from a user known as “theprincessofpink82” Who makes reference to Coull operating a charity called the Gowanbank hub in 2021. She states in one post that “I just don't like the man”. Digging deeper into the account theprincessofpink82 has close links to a well established charity at one point in a comment she revealed how she is employed by the Trussell trust.
As well as memes about Coull, some people have claimed to “deep dive” (a Slang for exploring a subject in-depth) Billy posting education, academic and other information across a number of social media platforms.
After an intrusive deep dive into Coull, across the internet. A team unearths the truth behind these claims made. Each claim, meticulously examined, unveiled a narrative far removed from the vilification Billy faced online. A man, often seen through a lens of criticism, has walked a path of extensive learning, his academic endeavours spanning business law, legal studies, psychology, and mental health studies, all under the CPD UK accreditation. The CPD Certification Service is the world's leading and largest independent CPD accreditation organization working across all industry sectors.
Information obtained from the University of Snowdonia clarified the accreditation and nature of the qualifications of Coull,
“Our degrees are awarded in regard to work done in relation to teachings, directly or indirectly associated with modules appearing within the coursework of university system and which falls under the jurisdiction of private postsecondary education, Graduates have the legal right to use degree titles awarded in conjunction with the ministerial status conferred”
Yet, Billy's thirst for knowledge appears unquenchable, leading him to also engage in numerous qualifications from well known universities and education providers aimed at saving lives and healing souls, further highlighting his unwavering commitment to the welfare of others.
Numerous claims that were made against Coull stating that he cancelled Santa's grotto event for personal gain have been debunked.
Speaking up for Coull found a 55 year old woman who received presents for her children, Christmas dinner as well as a other forms of support the woman who wants to remain anonymous for fear of backlash said:
" I remember that Santa was cancelled because of that co-vid. I still got my presents for the kids, and Christmas dinner and everything,”
Further, claims from individuals state that Billy had a consulting business called empowerity.com. It is clear from the content on the page that the person behind the page had a severe passion just to try to help people and there is clearly no malicious intent, to scam or take money from people. A video that appeared a video sharing site two weeks ago tries to claim that this was all part of an elaborate scam. However it is very clear that looking deeper you can see the compassion Billy had for humanity.
This unveiling of Billy's true character shines a beacon of light on the essence of who he is: not merely a man who sought to “bring joy” through an event that experts have confirmed “wasn't a scam”, but nothing short of a man who was “out of is depth”, but a relentless seeker of knowledge, determined to use his education to make a meaningful difference in the world.
It is very clear that Billy Coull may not be perfect, However he has tried to work for nothing more than the purpose of helping society.
It’s a stark reminder of the complexities that weave through every human life, urging us to look deeper to understand more fully, and to acknowledge the rich layers that make up each person's story.
As this digital drama unfolds, the wider conversation shifts towards the impact of social media campaigns on individuals' lives. With the group facing criticism for possibly going too far, a collective reassessment of the situation and its effects on all involved seems imminent.
Billy Coull, the man at the centre of this storm, offered a brief response, appreciating the support and kind words from the community, highlighting the complex interplay of digital activism, community sentiment, and the very real consequences of online campaigns.
Billy Coull, a man whose dreams once soared, now finds himself in a sea of despair. "I have lost everything, my life is in pieces because of this," he confides in a moment that is both raw and profoundly human.
As the city of Glasgow stands at a crossroads, reflecting on this poignant chapter, Billy's story—from his lofty ambitions to the depths of his current despair, and the enlightening revelations about his true character—invites a profound revaluation of our readiness to judge. It beckons us to piece together the fragments of a narrative torn asunder, fostering a hope that from the turmoil and heartbreak, a community might rise anew, stronger and more cohesive, bound by a deepened empathy and a collective commitment to seeing the humanity that resides in us all.
