AN IMPORTANT NOTE: On June 22, 2021, Hadari Oshri –Marc Lubaszka’s business partner– filed a civil harassment restraining order (CHRO) against Investor News reporter Aitana Vargas to stop the publication of her investigative series “A Special Report: The Harrowing Impunity of White-Collar crime,” and any subsequent installments or future media coverage. On August 3, 2021, Vargas filed an anti-SLAPP motion to strike Oshri’s CHRO petition. In a hearing held on September 13, 2021, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Doreen Boxer granted Vargas’s anti-SLAPP motion and denied Oshri’s civil harassment petition for failure to sustain the applicable burden of proof. Oshri will now have to pay Vargas’s attorney’s fees for filing a frivolous case. The Israeli entrepreneur also declined to go on a recorded interview or provide statements via email.
Los Angeles (CA) – Serial entrepreneur Hadari Oshri continues her quest to conquer the fitness and well-being industry through her latest company, Gaya Ventures, whose team includes convicted criminal Orlando Birbragher, according to the company site.
In multiple public posts –including her Twitter account, her company site and public forum Luma–, the disgraced businesswoman is throwing a networking event in a beachfront Malibu house to connect with like-minded individuals.
“We are thrilled to invite you to a distinguished networking event hosted by Gaya Ventures. As a leader in the private equity industry, we are actively seeking investment opportunities in the rapidly growing health and wellness sector,” says her public post.
The text goes on to announce that “This exclusive event will provide an exceptional platform for networking and collaboration among key players in the health and wellness industry. It will serve as an opportunity for us to connect, exchange ideas, and explore potential synergies that can propel both our organizations to new heights.”
Hadari Oshri lost First Amendment Rights case in 2021
To her credit, Oshri’s legacy already reached new heights in the Fall of 2021, after losing an embarrassing First Amendment Rights case against award-winning reporter Aitana Vargas. Oshri and her attorney, John Tamborelli, demanded and pressured the journalist to stop working on an investigative series that went on to win a top LA Press Club award in 2022.

Tamborelli’s legal threats were met with a letter by the National Writers Union (NWU) demanding that he stop all and any potential intimidation towards the journalist.
Oshri’s failed SLAPP attempt to silence her business links to conman Marc Lubaszka and her long list of prior business failures will cost her thousands of dollar in legal fees for filing a frivolous case, as mandated by California’s powerful anti-SLAPP statute.
Oshri’s “exclusive” networking event is not open to everyone though. Interested parties must be considering or wanting to sell “their operations” and “be on a minimum $500,000 EBITDA.”
