The Smear Campaign Against Ivo Sharpe:
Clearing the Name of an Honest Professional
Innocent Ivo Sharpe is a Respected Professional
In the malicious disinformation campaign being propagated by the fake “Italian Residency Scam” website, one name that is repeatedly — and unjustifiably — dragged through the mud is Ivo Sharpe, a respected associate of Henry James Associates and a legitimate collaborator in international residency and lifestyle services.
Let’s be absolutely clear:
Ivo Sharpe has never been convicted of any fraud, never scammed a client, and is not under investigation for any wrongdoing. He is a trusted partner to Italian Residency, with a clean track record and a long history of delivering results to high-net-worth clients seeking legal, efficient international relocation support.
📁 The Facts About Ivo Sharpe
Professional Background: Ivo Sharpe is an experienced consultant with deep knowledge of EU visa frameworks, financial relocation strategies, and property acquisition processes for foreign nationals.
Business Ethics: He operates transparently and professionally, often serving as the bridge between clients and qualified local professionals such as lawyers, accountants, and consulates.
Client Satisfaction: Verified testimonials from HenryJamesAssociates.com and Italian Residency clients consistently describe Sharpe as responsive, ethical, and results-oriented.
No Criminal Record: Despite wild insinuations made on defamatory websites, Ivo Sharpe has no criminal record — in Italy, the UK, or any other jurisdiction. Period.
🚨 Guilt by Association? A Classic Tactic in Online Defamation
The smear site attempts to paint Ivo Sharpe as “guilty by association,” simply because he is a known collaborator of individuals targeted by David Abingdon on Italian Residency scam website.
This is a lazy and dishonest argument used by a person with no actual evidence. If someone has legitimate grievances, they file them in court — not in anonymous blogs littered with conspiracy theories.
Ask yourself:
Why does the site fail to provide verifiable evidence against Ivo Sharpe?
Why is there no police report, court action, or legal citation tied to his name?
Why is he being targeted simply for being part of a legitimate network?
Because the Italian Residency scam site’s real purpose is not to inform — it’s to defame, intimidate, and extort money.
🛡️ Ivo Sharpe: A Reputation Built on Service, Not Scandal

Private families and entrepreneurs relocating to Italy
British and US citizens seeking tax-efficient residency
Law firms requiring liaison support for EU-based clients
He provides white-glove guidance, strategic advice, and discretion — precisely what clients expect in the high-stakes world of international relocation.

🔎 Weaknesses of the Scam Website: A Closer Look
1— No Disclosures. No Legal Accountability.
There’s no author listed, no company behind the site, and no legal disclaimer. That’s because they don’t want to be held responsible for defamation.
2— Broken Logic.
- “Nobody gained citizenship.” But Italian law requires 10 years.
- “Clients paid €100k–€200k.” Then calls them “naïve” for expecting results faster than the law allows? Pick a side.
- Embassies issued warnings? Those were broad visa scam advisories — not directed at Italian Residency SRL, and not legally binding.
Unlike the scam site, Italian Residency provides clear, legally vetted services to assist with:
Elective Residency Visas
Investor Visas
Digital Nomad Visas
Tax-advantage setups under the Flat Tax Regime
Strategic introductions to legal professionals
Concierge support from property selection to local registration
All legal. All documented. All above board.
✅ The Verdict: No Scam, No Crime — Just Character Assassination
The allegations against Ivo Sharpe are baseless, defamatory, and malicious in intent. They are not supported by law, court records, or client complaints, but rather by an embittered rival seeking to destroy competitors with SEO warfare and blackmail tactics.
To set the record straight:
Ivo Sharpe is an innocent, respected business associate who has been unjustly targeted by a smear campaign that has no basis in fact or legality.
