Very sad to hear that the justice system has failed PD and FBI. That is just WRONG!

I guess each and everyone could go the small claims court and keep him tied up with court and his lawyer for a long time.

Wouldn't the judge "get a clue" after the 50th hearing. for the same exact thing. Selling a product that he never had a right to sell. How is that not fraud is beyond my comprehension.

I would bet that there could be a local lawyer near the court that could be hired to represent on your behave. A proxy lawyer?
(Same guy for all!) so that those out of state or out of country do not have to actually be there.

No Criminal charges is just MINDBLOWING! Justice system has some serious flaws to say the least.

#8802 8 years ago

In other words. Even if you win a court case good luck collecting it. Not the first time I have heard this. Unreal.

Keep going after him.

Someone mentioned jpoop just a bad businessman. BS. The term owner. Sugguests to others that you own something.
NDA s and such. Really. One machine very limited next machine many more, third machine it looks like he is still collecting funds for. Sure looks like a pyramid scheme business model to me. Oh wait that's right nobody got shit. Scratch that. He was just stupid.

To bad Kevin did not just come clean right away and come up with something non licensed generic alien, monster The Hunter.
A much better history would have been written. You

I was under the impression last I read that folks were getting refunds?? Only the lucky??

White van speaker scam is old as Dirt. Most don't have bricks. Most work but the absolute cheapest junk they can get. Speakers receivers video projectors watches anything really. They makeup up fake magazines with fake reviews fake fair retail values fake invoices for amounts they paid.
I almost fell for it, I was 16-18years old.
Almost is the key word.

#9883 8 years ago

So what is the real story with pinchili? He purchased so that means Kevin sold it and now profited from unauthorized, un licensed deal. That doesn't seem very smart on either side. Pawn shops lose out all the time with stolen goods. Well no matter what you say or how you distance yourself I don't think will mattet. Try to sell it and you could be in trouble. Kevin has proven to disobey a cease and desist order. I am at a loss.
Does pinchili think this was wise? You going to show it off at expo or something?? Or are you afraid someday soon you will get a summons to appear in court and have to forfeit the machine. Did he give you a good deal?? Extended warranty?

These two topics just keep getting wilder.

#9923 8 years ago

Yes social engineering is amazing!

And depending on the kind of heart you have or how sorry you feel for people. Etc. You can easily fall victim.

This is their living their careers and they get real good at it. From the tarot card fortune tellers to the unholy holy guys. Not so easy to stop yourself from getting wacked. From white vans to a professional looking web site.
And they happen all the time in any surroundings from your local watering hole to the guy swinging his little kid on a swing at the playground. You always need to be on guard.

I purchased this book a while back as entertainment reading. The back cover reads " a legendary hacker reveals how to guard against the greatest security risk of all human nature"

The book title: the art of deception by Kevin D Mitnick.

Mitnick being a somewhat famous hacker that now does training for companies I believe. That is still what he knows best. I know purchase of book helps him get rich so a double edge sword for sure.

I think everyone does it to a certain level.

But when it involves many people and large sums of money. I don't think the justice system has any real good way to undo the damage. I met a guy that lost out to an investment scam. Well he won his case but is still out his whole retirement nestegg. He has never seen a penny. It is truly unreal.

As a kid I loved magic tricks but when you start to read and learn the secrets it is the art of fooling to entertain. The pledge, the turn, the flurrish the reveal. The art of deception.
But for entertainment it is accepted.
I guess because they announce themselves as such and just trying to figure out how they did it is fun. ??? Penn and Teller know the craft and tell you just enough to stay three steps ahead of you.

Wow the shit storm just continues and this thread is on fire!!

The moose out front should have told ya he is broke!

I got no skin in anything so really could give a rat's ass about the one or two machines but I can see need to keep it in hiding. If I lost out, I would make it a point to never give up til all remains destroyed or someone was in jail.

IRS is great call! I believe I brought it up in jpop thread long ago.

Ramps shouldn't be a problem for some folks.

Just looking for a chuckle.

What bothers me is the couple of toxic machines still in exitistance. Until they are publicly destroyed I wouldn't be happy either.

Not sure how I feel about the Hitler mobile I guess it has no right being loving cleaned and waxed either. And someone could get hurt even shot.

New BSD coffin mod two models to choose from.

#11206 7 years ago

So happydayz purchased the machine knowing full well that is was an unlicensed product. I take it that move isn't legal?? Would that be like purchasing a piece of stolen property? Or is it like the pawn stars that purchased a piece of merchandise not knowing that it wasn't hot or like wasn't an antique firearm? But something they can get in heat over as well and get seized?
Either way anyone getting involved with that machine now are doing it for personal profit and or to show-off like a twisted trophy. More wierd scumbag moves in my opinion.
Would a court look at it as helping support criminal activity?

#11406 7 years ago

Multibrawlr welcome!! you made a mistakes if your brand new to a forum and your first input is in a Toxic, train wreck of a topic. that was not a smooth move. Plenty of good folks on here and (drewscruis) is definately one of them.

But plenty of scum bags as well. And sometimes account names as well as length of service matter.

#11412 7 years ago

Thanks Cornelius I think you understood me my writing skills not the greatest.

A couple items that will be very interesting : w the SKITB tax returns if they even exist.
Then his personal Tax returns.

Maybe the IRS will bend him over after Keith is done with him. Or maybe Keith should bring in a tax specialist as well for next questioning.

All the so called employee friends and family?

Then the one or two machines made where given to a friend to sell as a second hand transaction to a collector? Hmmm?? I am sure he raised extra money selling off other assets. Are those the so called worthless accoutrements.

I have seen judges much harder on 80year old women for speeding in court. With large fines handed out. This judge seemed way to easy on Kevin. The judge never asked do you have a lawyer? Do you need a lawyer?
Never asked what the court issue in Ohio was about?

I am guessing Kevin will show up with same crap papers that he has already given as that is all he can bring without totally screwing himself. If he shows at all.
And Keith will get what from this lair??

Can someone recap how many folks Keith is representing?? Cause I hear many guys that only lost a small amount so never persued any refund.

It is exciting to hear that Kevin may be getting his comeuppance.

But I can just hear him now,
well your honor I did not realize that Mexico was that much further than Ohio nor did I realize that my wife had gotten me a passport for Valentine's day and left it hidden in the glove box. It's not my fault honest. I didn't even know my dying grandmother lived in Mexico I just put the address into the Google maps and was following their directions.
Oh and I felt very threatened by all those documents that would prove I am a liar and a their. So nope cant seem to find any of them.

#13252 7 years ago

Is debtors prison like 7$ per day or some shit like that? 1.2mil = 469.6 years

If they can't seem to find funds where exactly is this going. Do we all get to pay for his jail cell for a long while?

I don't mind chipping in when I can!

#13283 7 years ago

No skin here either but for all the guys getting the shaft by that asshat, it's nice to see Kevin finding out that his decision to Keep the money was the worst thing he ever did.

Cheers!!

#13733 7 years ago

So does anyone think Kevin lied, told a fib or purgered himself under oath?

Does that mean anything at all anymore?

#13839 7 years ago

I am so happy to see that the grammar police never sleep!!

Do you think Kevin's answers at the hearing where a little CONveluted? Or just CONvenient.

#14297 7 years ago

I never understood how lawyers can defend people that are obviously criminal.

He sounds like he needed a few drinks just to show up via phone.

I guess I'll say a prayer for Kevin's family tonight. It is a shame he couldn't have been honest and re titled it alien jungle hunt, or alien hunter, body collector etc.and been a stand up guy

Wonder if clay is gonna voluntarily hand over his possession of the partial machines?

#14549 7 years ago

I am loving the grammar police! So funny, but something I really need to work on. I write in fragments all the time and can never seem to correct myself. I think I had music lessons and special practice sessions scheduled during English class quite often.

Wow that statement of hiding funds to collect other government program benefits was a great idea. Can of worms open here! At least besides paying for the cable and heat it sounds like at least some improvements to everyones time share property have been done.

Quoted from Jam_Burglar:

Anybody know if the U.S. Trustee has taken any interest yet? They'll criminally prosecute in some cases.

Sure sounds like they keep digging a deeper grave with every step in this process. Not showing up for court, no cooperation, hiding assets in trailers, selling prototype machines worth the big bucks to other friends, paying friends, buying mother RV with production funds.

It gets no worse.

#15049 6 years ago

Thinking out loud.
If Kevin while unemployed put a ton of sweat equity into the property so that when it gets sold off more funds are generated? Would that be smart move? Wouldn't that be helping himself out. Better than pumping iron in jail, no?

#15101 6 years ago

When they lose the house they can just move in the RV with Mom. Oh wait..

#15148 6 years ago

Ok a couple real questions now.

Are all the prototypes (sample games) accounted for?

After seeing MG and the supposed value of these rare items seems like Preditor machine could easily fetch a pretty penny if auctioned correctly. That game seemed to have code and actually be a real pin.

And seeing how long this process takes how many years of courts and misery can you watch before you start feeling sorry for them and the children. I know you all want justice, and the embarrassment and hassle of getting pulled in by Marshalls is some sweet revenge. but,.
I am just wondering if anything less than jail will even satisfy ?

Some people can look at it like it's only money and not all that much in the grand scheme of things. At least the amount back.

Is it irregardless and you just want him to lay in the bed he made himself?

I did have a nice Easter day that's all I know.

#15281 6 years ago

Yes the judge is trying to basically keep her emotional outbreaks at bay. The house is gone already whether she wants to think different or not. The grandparents or whoever else can come up with 80k + to keep them from having to pack up and move out, will be the next thing she will have to work on.
But ethier way it's not really their home.

If only he had started issuing refunds instead of being a crook.

I get the feeling from hearing her that they are as close as ever still. Weird as that sounds.

And why was the Grandmother there?? To see how fucked they really are?

#15296 6 years ago

Oh I can bet withdraws from PayPal directly into her account or said business are plain as day.

Don't really understand the angle on the business equipment inventory list wanted. From 2015 or whatever on you know she'll never list anything she can't prove she purchased. Which would be all the expensive stuff. So the list will contain all the cheap junk and backed up with receipts. Anything real expensive would be hidden and or sold off on the side to pay for legal fees. Thus purchasing all new equipment with receipts.

She did state she has all the receipts but of course thats only for recent purchases.

Is this more rope to prove the dishonest and hang her as well, most likely.

If I where her I'd think long and hard before falsifying any more it hasn't worked out well so far.

#15301 6 years ago

#15337 6 years ago

we all get to pay for the best defense our tax dollars can afford.

#15395 6 years ago

You almost started to go the rails like Clark at the eggnog bowl. But well said!!

#15449 6 years ago

May the fourth be with dude!

I was listening again, and it sure seems that if all her bank and her pay pal where forced over for an audit things would be much simpler than her selective account of assets with receipts. Yeah I feel she is majorly worried about losing everything. But as being married you have to assume they will do anything to not give up anything.

Water was up to ribcage in living room and you guys keep talking about water in the basement. ???

Sounds like she is definitely trying to devalue the property. Which is silly as if(when) they give it up, the more it's worth the more the debt can be resolved.

Sure sounds like she still doesn't get it.

Your done like yesterday's​ dinner.

Slapping da bass!!

but what do i know i'm a nerd

so when does the IRS and child services get involved?

and it sure doesnt look like she needs oxygen but she needs some growth taken off her arm.

#16137 6 years ago

I get the feeling mom thinks she's in the clear.

I am just guessing from voice and attitude.

It seems the same with Amanda. It is just as when discussion of house was done and then the matter of the other funds transferred got put in front of her (big sigh of discuss and then back on the defensive voice) like isn't the 30k enough to just brush this whole thing under a rug and be done.

I don't think they realize they have many more court dates and it will never be over until they satisfy all those they burned.

And be very careful of what you go saying about this wonderful community and hobby site. You may just piss off the wrong nerd and then.......open a new can of whip ass.

I think the community would gladly stop over and help you. Especially moving all unaccounted for accoutrements.

Of course I could be wrong as these nerds are just brainiacs and would just be there to figure how many bladders and anchor chains would be needed so this doesn't happen again.

#16465 6 years ago

The wnem story page has a couple comments.

News reporter thinks she's getting a nice, heart breaking fluff story. This story could age her 50years. Do yourself a favor and stay away!

It's toxic.

Unless she's a real killer queen detective type that wants a huge story.

#16505 6 years ago

Yeah I can almost guarantee those comments didn't help anything but give them "look see the brutal attacks we get daily" ammo.

Oh my son!! Lol Where the heck is he? Out collecting route money??

The pros:

History
Education

There are no cons except for the criminals and friends there of being embarrassed, being held accountable, etc..

Easy to drain if you do not like seeing folks getting enjoyment out of some justice being served.

If everyone just chalked it up to life lesson learned, and turned the other cheek, the crooks just keep doing what they are good at.

Look at MAD amusements and international orders. I am embarrassed for the entire country that it keeps happening.

It would really be a good time to sit with a professional and make arrangements for the children, seeing how the school got flooded.

#17168 6 years ago

Just so I understand correctly?
Keith is attorney representing Mr Frank and trying to claw back every cent that they can for financial losses in the Predator scam. Then cabinet maker that is also involved in this and clearly received funds in odd manner is trying to sue Keith for ruining business?

I have heard the public tapes and it sure seems Keith has been on receiving end of a lot of attacks and bullshit.

I take it these cases are treated separately?

Does this give Keith opportunity to push harder for criminal charges or opportunity to inform or get the IRS to take action? On all involved in the money trail?

Seems weird that with such poor or non existent business practices that this civil type stuff is going on first. I would think it would be the other way around. Or combined so that things were really truthful and cooperative.

For the love of God just throw em in a cell. Do they have Halloween in jail?

#17532 6 years ago

I remembered it didn't make much sense to me, its like there is no Halloween in CA? I couldn't even believe the judge was going to let her leave the state without matters being concluded. Super nice judge. Almost to nice. Wasn't there any judges in on a Preditor machine that could take over this case??
