Heads up ***Scam Alert***
 

Hey Guys...

Anyone looking to buy content please BEWARE... a close associate of mine was just scammed out of $40,000... and we won't let them get to you... so SPREAD THE WORD!!!

Below are the details of what happened... including emails...

************************************************** **************************


***SCAM ALERT***

PINK VIDEO aka XTC MEDIA GROUP aka DWWE, INC, aka CJ ANDERSON

Any and all content buyers beware, beware of doing any business with the companies listed above.

On May 6, 2011, after weeks of negotiating, a cashiers check for $22,800 issued from Bank of America was sent to DWWE for the purchase of HD video content.

The check was received on May 7, 2011 and deposited into an account at Chase Bank by DWWE. Then the company notifies us by email that the cashiers check from BofA will take 11 days to clear. Bank of America states that is a fabrication, that the longest a cashiers check could take to clear is up to 72 hours unless the beneficiary account is not in good standing. Nevertheless, for our part, the check cleared within 72 hours.

Once we receive payment and confirm payment, we can get your content out to you asap!!! We would email you a listing of scenes which will all have corresponding scene #'s so that you will know which 2257, stills, and content go with which corresponding talent.

I await to receive something in the mail from you soon.

Take care,

CJ





We accepted the story as strange, but went ahead and stayed the course and moved to complete the transaction by wiring the balance of $16,080 to the DWWE bank account located at BB&T bank in Plantation, FL. The wire was completed on May 16.

We are going to be working on the HD now, so it can go out immediately. I will let you know when they are going out.

CJ





We expected to start seeing delivery of the content we ordered and paid for starting on May 17, nothing arrived or was shipped.

Going to confirm wire today, when we get the HD content all ready I will let you know. Remember we are trasnfering HD mini dv tapes to hard drive and dvd masters. I will send you a bulk of the scenes we have finished and then send you some more and then some more till we have sent everything.

Once again, we are doing 2 other companies large orders at the same time not to mention 3 other smaller orders at the same time as well.

We just had the big trade show here, as I said the a portion of the content would be going out in three days. Normally that would have been today but with the trade show and all things got delayed. I will find out today how many scenes are going out today and it will go out tomorrow.

CJ

We have a MAJOR probelm here. Late Thursday, our account was put on hold by our bank. On Friday I found out why. Apparently they are looking into the wire you sent us, apparently there is some sort of issue with your company that our bank has. Thsi doesn't come from me, this comes from BB&T.

I was afaraid of this which is why I wanted to start off smaller wiht you AND did'nt wish to start off with a wire transfer from you.
Especially since this happened to another company that I know of and the issue was a major wire fraud issue from the sending company.

I wasn't given all the details apparently I will be receiving a letter from the bank giving details about the situation today or tomorrow, but I was informed that it stems from the wire we received from you.

Whether you believe me or not is not my issue right now, I was informed by my bank that they can have a noticed sent to you as well if I request it and have someone get in touch with you about the situation.

I will get back back to you hopefully late today but should be no later than tomorrow about what our next step is depending on what I am informed about you guys in the noticed I am to receive by BB&t's head office.

First thing we did was call BofA, their reply was ?If there was any problem with a wire or an account, we?d be notified, and we have not been notified of anything. Secondly, if a wire or an account is suspect of fraud, a hold would be placed and the issuing bank notified within 24 hours. Never in the history of any financial institution has a wire been deemed suspicious and an account frozen after having said funds for a period of three weeks? Further, that same week we sent out close to 40 wires as we have done weekly for over 5 years. BofA said the only possible problem could have been is if his account is in poor standing they could have held the check, however that would not have had any effect on us getting our content.

Needless to say today is now June 21 and now 45 days after sending this coward the money ? not one delivery of the content, nothing. Now all we get from this CJ character are more excuses like ?waiting on advice of counsel?.

We?ve asked for the content, we?ve asked for a refund?. And instead he says he?s being advised by counsel and that our counsel should speak directly to his. He?s been contacted by phone and email from our counsel and thus far has not produced the name or number of his attorney.

We finally contacted the Plantation Police department today and will start the process of filing criminal complaint for wire fraud, bank fraud, mail fraud, theft by deception and felony theft over $10,000.

Worst part of this is we?ve given this conman every opportunity to make good and just deliver the content or refund the money. And in every case, he just gets belligerent and combative and won?t budge.

So to anyone buying content, beware of this thief. Below you will find all of his details, so you can avoid this happening to you.

tl;dr





?

sorry to hear that Loryn:2 cents:

What did BB&T say about it?

Looks like that address is a mail drop...

Actually there is a My Mailbox location in that plaza, so it *might* be a mail drop...

OMFG Damn...

Well at least it is in Florida, Authorities love fucking up content providers there:)
Assuming they are content providers and not pro con-artists.
Hope you get all the money back.

What a fool with all those paper trails.

Went into Bank of America? and THEY contacted BB&T ? they stated there was no problem with the wire and that the funds released same day, which confirms what Bank of America said all along? If there was a problem with the wire itself or the account, they would have never released the wire in the first place...

sorry to hear that, Loryn :(

if you ever need content that will be delivered when you pay for it - you know where to find me

Is this your guy? Plantation is Ft Lauderdale area, so is Tamarac and Davie.

Yep... a My Mail Box location, kind of like a UPS Store. That sucks.

the guy doesnt have a web site... uses a UPS store mailbox as an address and you guys thought sending the guy $40k up front was smart?





.

Hit me up on Skype when you can please Loryn
kiwigirl4u :)

Looking at the website, the gmail address, the terrible grammar and spelling in the emails, it's a wonder the warning bells weren't ringing alot earlier.

I hope you catch these thieves but for such a large transaction I'd want some real firm contact details for the person I was dealing with and a way to get hold of them if things went pear shaped.

In case you dont have it here is another gmail address for him when he was scouting (unsuccessfully) for models [email protected]

Edit: another email from when he was looking for photographers: [email protected].

Thanks babe... When it's that much money it shocks the system... you can almost not believe it's happening...

BTW I love your new Twitter name... JFK_FUBAR

damm this needs a bump

Thank you so much... it need 40,000 bumps... :disgust

We don't want this to happen to one more person... and if anyone knows a way to get to them or take them down, other than the cops on their ass, let me know... :mad:

wanna sniff some glue with me? i have the good stuff :)

Loryn I feel terribly for the plight and pickel you guys are in but I would like to site that you were in violation of rule #1.

ALWAYS KNOW WHO YOU ARE DOING BUSINESS WITH.

In all his ads he said he was from the Gainesville area if that gets you any closer.

Bump for Loryn, my favorite lunch date

They're in South Florida, where a lot of big porn companies already operate. It's a completely different world from Polk County and some of the redneck towns in Central and North Florida where they like to prosecute content producers for obscenity.

Then again, if he really is in the Gainesville area like AdultKing just posted that is a different story. He could be using the South Florida mail drop to hide his location, because in Gainesville they aren't at all porn friendly...

In one post they say Oakland CA http://sf.backpage.com/AdultJobs/hir...ompany/5856073 and in another they say Gainesville Area. http://nutsackmedia.com/forum/showth...rk-Gainesville

Here's one of their many ads last year. Pink Video used to be a relatively successful video producer back in the day, but it's not them and they have misappropriated the name by representing themselves as Pink Video.

http://in.vu/images/pinkviaua.jpg

They're definitely in Gainesville, we tickled their number last year and made an inquiry as we were surprised to see Pink Video trawling boards looking for talent. It turned out they weren't Pink Video at all.

unbelievable, good luck :(

Hope you get them Loryn.

Thank Stefan...

I'll get with my partner and see what they would like to put together... we like HD exclusive... we shoot a lot of our own, but of course, you know me... I want MORE... :pimp After dealing with this "asshole" we are all on high alert now and high suspicions... LOL


I have your FB and ICQ... but not Skype... my Skype name is loryntaylor, if you use it hit me up...

I will be in touch for sure... :)

Well could have been worse. There is a paper trail and both parties are within US so there should be recourse, although if he has blown the money or it has been eaten by an existing overdraft, that recourse may not be a refund.

Good luck, I hope you get it resolved.

Mind too baby... Doing 80 to 100 mph through the back roads, in your huge black lifted truck, of course Metallica blowing us out of the truck... LOL It fuckin' rocked... the best transportation to and from lunch I ever had... Oh and jumping the railroad tracks... LOL

Good Times...

Skype: madalton02826

8 years of flawless business history, if I screw up you're officially allowed to hit me with a beer bottle at the next show we meet :)

Give me 40K up front and man I will over deliver content for you! :thumbsup Exclusive content

Production pay by scene

sorry to hear :(

:( sorry to hear , many content providers that are scammers out there...

shit loryn ... im local.... ill shoot what ever you want.... you got my icq

hit a cracker up

more importantly does the said content even exist and whats so special about it

Found this Twitter account for them.

http://twitter.com/#!/superbusty

They seem like amateur con artists, leaving footprints everywhere.

Looking at putting a better motor in it next year, maybe a Roush V8, they make a 4.7 435 hp motor that will bolt in there. That would fun with some add on's

Thanks :pimp

seems it´s him :disgust

No idea of that?s who it is...
All we have is CJ...

Like I said before... anything you guys know, or know of a friend of a friend who would know how to help find these asshats would be great... not only to fight for the money back, but to also get these asshats punished and/or have their names and faces out there for everyone to see...

I would assume he looks like a cross between: :firehair :stoned and :Hollering

Hey Loryn can ya open ICQ:) Plox?

omg... LOL


btw... Sorry girl about that :( I know u from here many years so u are "old" in this biz... u havent seen the signs ..??? I am sorry and I hope to catch that bastard!

now shit happens... look your next steps ;)

so sorry this happened to you guys L. this cat here ^^^^^^^ is the real deal and can take of you guys. i bet he's even willing to lick your wounds :winkwink:

Ouch, that must hurt! I'm very sorry to hear about this.

One thing that I notice about most scammers is that there are inconsistencies in their story

One guy (from GFY) recently said to me

"Minimum order $2,000"
to which I replied
"I would first test you out with a small deal, before going for a $2,000 deal", so I suggested
"$20 for a test"
then he said
"no $30 for a test"

So initially it's only worth this guy touching his keyboard for $2,000, then the next thing he's desperate for an extra $10. For me that set off all the warning bells and I ended all contact.

Next thing everyone on GFY is warning he's a scammer

I hope you do get your money back...somehow!

Look at http://www.clips4sale.com/store/13819 , why in the world have you gone doing business with someone selling stuff of such website?
This is how should look a site of someone you want to do business with http://adultcentro.com/
