Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
A review of the recent cases discussing the criteria to be applied in determining the adequacy of a complaint compels us to the conclusion that Count I of appellants' second amended complaint contained sufficient allegations to bring the activities within the proscription of F.S. Section 849.091, F.S.A., and was at least adequate at this stage to state a cause of action. Pizzi v. Central Bank and Trust Company, Fla.1971, 250 So.2d 895. Whether the appellants are able to prove the allegations of their complaint is a consideration entirely separate and distinct from whether the complaint contains sufficient allegations to withstand a motion to dismiss. Bond v. Koscot Interplanetary, Inc., Fla.App.1971, 246 So.2d 631; Iorio v. Layman, Fla.App.1971, 256 So.2d 26. Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is reversed and the cause remanded for further proceedings.
Reversed.
