On the evidence the plaintiff and intermediary were 'playing the same game' and cooperated in procuring and enabling unlawful charges; those sums ($313,000 intermediary fee, $30,000 law firm deposit and $7,000 upfront fee) were received in contravention of s27 and are set off under s27(4), leaving no recoverable balance; adverse inferences were justified because plaintiff failed to produce relevant witness evidence and records.
