Chris Principe is taking his legal fight to a new level. The man at the center of a lawsuit over lost OneCoin promotion earnings has now filed for a harassment injunction, asking a court to silence his accuser.
Principe claims Tim Curry has been threatening him and hurling accusations of criminal activity "in the foulest, most vitriolic language possible." He describes himself in court documents as a consultant in transaction banking, finance and technology. He omits one detail: his direct role in promoting OneCoin, a Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors of billions.
The motion largely rehashes Principe's original complaint—that Curry has harassed him relentlessly on Twitter and damaged his business dealings. Principe pins the failure of a Skyway Capital PR deal squarely on Curry, along with BehindMLM's published review of Skyway.
Here's where Principe's account gets fuzzy. He claims BehindMLM wrongly classified Skyway as a Ponzi scheme because of his involvement with OneCoin. That's not what happened. BehindMLM reviewed Skyway Capital in August 2016 and concluded it was a Ponzi scheme because it did what all Ponzi schemes do: use newly invested funds to pay existing investors a promised 22% return. Principe's OneCoin ties weren't mentioned in that review at all and played no role in the analysis.
Skyway itself canceled its agreement with Principe in 2017 after learning that Curry had publicly linked him to OneCoin promotion. The company didn't want that baggage dragging down its reputation and investor recruitment.
The harassment allegations, however, carry more weight. Court documents show Curry has been relentless. After the lawsuit began, Curry repeatedly sent Principe LinkedIn connection requests paired with threatening messages. One read: "I'm going to help put you in jail . . . In my opinion, you are a STUPID MOTHERF**R for f*ing with me, you piece of sh. [W]ait for it!"
When Principe declined the requests, Curry sent new ones. When Principe ignored them and they expired after thirty days, Curry sent fresh requests. The pattern repeated on Twitter, where Curry tagged Principe in a barrage of hostile messages, including tweets sent in the early morning hours—4:05 a.m., 4:07 a.m., 4:10 a.m.
That conduct, documented in Principe's motion, presents a legitimate harassment claim regardless of the credibility questions surrounding his other allegations. Whether a court will grant the injunction remains unclear. But Curry's campaign has crossed into territory that looks less like accountability and more like personal vendetta.
