Denver, CO – A 75-year-old woman and her husband are accused of operating fraudulent medical clinics across the country for more than two decades, falsely claiming to detect, treat, and cure illnesses—including cancer—through bogus body scans.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has launched an investigation into Mary Blakley, an Arizona resident, and her husband Fred Blakley, for allegedly deceiving thousands of patients through false medical claims and fraudulent clinics operating in multiple states, including Colorado.
Now, authorities are urging victims to come forward as Blakley and her husband face serious federal charges that could land them in prison for life.
The Scam: False Promises and Fake Cures
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Blakley falsely posed as a doctor or PhD from 2002 to December 2024, despite having no legitimate medical qualifications.
Between 2011 and 2025, she and her husband ran a fraudulent health scheme, claiming their so-called “smart chip technology” could detect and cure serious illnesses, including:
✔ Cancer
✔ Heart Disease
✔ Chronic Illnesses
Blakley charged patients $300 per body scan and then prescribed unapproved supplements, creams, and even veterinary products to human clients based on fabricated diagnoses, according to federal prosecutors.
These fraudulent medical claims duped countless patients into believing they were receiving real medical care, when in reality, the entire operation was a scam designed to exploit vulnerable individuals for financial gain.
Bogus Technology and False Diagnoses
The scam revolved around Blakley’s fictitious “smart chip technology,” which she claimed could:
🔹 Detect diseases through full-body scans
🔹 Perform colonoscopies and electrocardiograms
🔹 Provide instant cures for medical conditions
However, the FBI confirms that none of these claims were real. The so-called smart chip technology did not exist, and the scans were nothing more than a deceptive trick to lure victims into spending money on fake treatments.
Many patients believed they had received life-saving diagnoses or treatment, only to later discover that their conditions had been misrepresented or entirely fabricated.
Where Did the Fraudulent Clinics Operate?
Blakley and her husband set up fake medical clinics in multiple states, including:
✅ Colorado
✅ Arizona
✅ California
✅ Nevada
✅ Utah
The FBI reports that these fraudulent clinics operated under various names, including:
Sonic Waves Research
Living Well Ministry
Living Well Health Club
Living Well Warriors
The Blakley Foundation
Health Screenings 4 Life
Health Scans 4 Life
London Bridge Wellness Center
These fake businesses were designed to appear legitimate, but in reality, they were a front for fraud, deceiving unsuspecting patients into believing they were receiving medical care.
A Web of False Identities
Blakley and her husband went to great lengths to hide their identities, using multiple fake names to evade law enforcement.
Authorities confirm that Blakley operated under at least 10 aliases, including:
🔹 Marye Blakley
🔹 Mary Blakely
🔹 Mary Blakeley
🔹 Mary Davis
🔹 Mary Venable
🔹 Mary Cammer
🔹 Rosemary Cammer
🔹 Rosemary Davis
🔹 Yvonne Davis
🔹 Mary Blaksley
Her husband, Fred Blakley, was also known by different names, including:
🔹 Fred Blakely
🔹 Floyd Blakely
By using fake identities and changing clinic names, the couple was able to continue their fraudulent scheme for years without getting caught.
Facing Justice: Federal Charges and Potential Life Sentences
Earlier this month, the U.S. Attorney’s Office announced formal charges against the couple, including:
⚖ Conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud
⚖ Mail fraud
⚖ Wire fraud
⚖ Conspiracy to violate the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
If convicted, Mary and Fred Blakley each face a maximum sentence of 165 years in federal prison.
The Serious Consequences of Medical Fraud
Medical fraud is not just about money—it puts people’s lives at risk.
🔴 Patients who relied on these fake diagnoses may have delayed real medical treatment.
🔴 Some victims may have been misled into thinking they had life-threatening diseases they never had.
🔴 Others may have been given false hope that their serious illnesses had been cured—when in reality, they had received no real treatment at all.
The case highlights the dangers of unlicensed medical practitioners and the importance of verifying medical credentials before seeking treatment.
FBI: Victims Encouraged to Come Forward
The FBI is actively seeking former patients who may have been victimized by Blakley’s fraudulent medical scheme.
If you or someone you know visited one of the fraudulent clinics or received treatment from Mary or Fred Blakley, the FBI urges you to report your experience by completing the official victim form on their website.
Victim Rights and Compensation
The FBI has stated that victims of the scam may be eligible for compensation or legal assistance under federal and state law.
This case serves as a critical reminder to always verify medical credentials before seeking treatment and to report suspicious medical claims to authorities.
