This is a public warning about a particular individual on USEnet whom
should not be trusted. This man has STOLEN PROPERTY in his possession. He
is a con artist of the slickest variety and claims to be a former police
officer in Miami, FL, as well as a coordinator for the "57 or so
microbroadcasters in South Florida". He claims to have been bringing in
$3000 per week in advertising revenues from his pirate radio station which
he claims to have operated. Furthermore, he claims, in voice telephone
conversations with me, that his grandfather is very wealthy and owns a
number of buildings/hotels in downtown Miami. He also claims to have fended
off the FCC three times after visits by the FCC.
We got involved in a business transaction last November, in which he
purchased a Broadcast Electronics 5M250 air console from me, on a promise
to pay in three payments of $125 each. The specifics are outlined in
painful detail in the copied e-mail exchanges below.
I decided to trust this Hispanic man and give his kind the benefit of a
doubt and help a fellow microbroadcaster, though there are those who tell
me never to trust someone from that culture. I was determined to give him a
chance anyway. He let me down, and his lack of integrity only further
supports the "biased" popular opinion that "you can never trust a
Hispanic".
I post this saga as a warning to anyone who is considering doing business
with this person. He makes promises, and will sweet-talk his way around
delivering on his end of the bargain.
The man's last known address was:
Maurice Martinez
9301 North Kendall Drive
Miami, FL 33176
Tel: 305-275-9909
If you are selling anything at all to this person, be sure to get UP FRONT
CASH payment. He cannot be trusted. I seriously doubt his stories about
beating off the FCC with his police badge. It's all a con artist story.
I repeat, this man has STOLEN PROPERTY in his possession. Any tips and
information leading to the return of my property should be directed to me
at AMN92@juno.com.

Hi Maurice,
This is Mark Weiss in Connecticut. Sorry for the delay. I've been running
around like crazy prepping for a weekend of broadcasting. I don't have a
long distance provider (didn't pay my bill) so I can't dial long distance.
I did get your message about the BE console. It's a 5M250, monaural. Did
Dennis mention the fact that it's monophonic? Anyway, I was looking to get
about $500-$600 for it in Radio Shopper. I would consider coming down to
about $250, to help a fellow microbroadcaster though, but I think you need
a stereo console (unless you were planning an AM station!)
Subj: Re: Got Your Phonecall Today

To: Djx94300
Hi Maurice!
Are you SURE you want a monaural mixing board, because that's what the BE
5M250 is. I guess we'll discuss it soon
Take care,
Mark

Yes Mark even a monorual board will do b/c the collins exciter is a pain in
the ass in stereo. If I can get your processor to work good in mono thats
fine I will call you ok.
thanks

Let me know what you want to do about the console. If you want it, it's
quite big and heavy --it takes up most of a desktop. Please consider that
as well, you will need lots of space for it.
Awaiting your reply,
Mark

Maurice,
Your board is packed and ready to ship tomorrow.
Good news! Remember you asked about how many mic inputs there were? Well,
ANY input can be configured for LINE *or* MIC, just by changing jumpers on
the preamp boards. It's so easy. I forgot it had this capability.
Just wanted to let you know, so you don't have to buy another mic preamp!

Hi Maurice,
Here's your info:
Shipping COD cost: $27.97
I insured for $400.
UPS Ground Tracking # 1Z 017 X15 03 1251 792 5
Since I didn't have a UPS account, they would not ship it "freight
collect", so I had to go to the bank and pull out some of my own limited
cash to send it on it's way. Let's hope they don't go on strike. :-)
So in about a week, you'll send $125, then $125 two weeks after that, and a
final $125 two weeks after that.
Did you talk to your friend about the stereo generator?
I first need to pay my electric bill before they turn it off. After I get
that emergency settled, I want to put some money into manufacturing some
products as we discussed: an audio processor and limiter, for one. If I
make a sale on the stereo generator, and you find the customer, you get 20%
commission. If we work as a team and keep selling, we might make some
money!
Here's the dib on my stereo generator:

Hi Maurice,
Hope your holiday went well. Ours was pretty quiet, spent with friends.
Did you send out the first payment for the BE yet? The second is nearly due
already. Better to get the first one in on time so you can spread out the
burden, rather than have to make a double payment on the 31st.
As per our agreement, you were to make the first payment within a week of
receiving the mixing board. That was Dec 10th, so the first payment of $125
was due on Dec 17th.
The remaining two payments are due at two-week intervals, which means the
2nd payment of $125 is due on Dec 31st. The third payment of $125 is
finally due on Jan 14th.
Please keep it in mind and return the favor I did for you by not asking for
full payment up-front.
Just to be sure, here is the send to address one more time:

Have a safe & Happy New Year.

Looks real nice Maurice! I couldn't get a audio stream yet. It's not
online, no?
BTW,
I don't want to be a pain in the *ss, but an agreement is an agreement, and
I AM expecting on-time payments on the board. I gave you the mailing
address in three separate messages. If you're having difficulty coming up
with the money, at least let me know, so we can work something out. I need
the money for heating oil this winter. Can't you borrow the money from your
grandfather at least until you can come up with the money on your own? I
trusted you. Please don't let me down.

Hi Maurice,
I know things can be in a jam, and right now, I'm holding up payment on two
bills because *I* simply don't have the funds in my account to cover
checks. I know how things can be tight. Just please try to return my prompt
favor of sending this unit out to you on short notice, by returning the
favor in kind and paying me back with equal alacrity.
No I did not receive any payment in the mail yesterday or today.
I'll take a look at the link. thanks.

Dear Maurice,
It is now Sunday, and all week I have checked the mail. Still no payment.
It typically takes 3 days max from FL to CT, so if you mailed it Monday, it
should have been here no later than Thursday.
As per our agreement, you were to make the first payment within a week of
receiving the mixing board. That was Dec 10th, so the first payment of $125
was due on Dec 17th.
The remaining two payments are due at two-week intervals, which means the
2nd payment of $125 is due on Dec 31st. The third payment of $125 is
finally due on Jan 14th.
That's just 3 days from today. Are you going to just send the full payment
of $375 this week?
One more time, here is the send to address:
[my address again]
Let's get this wrapped up. I NEED to buy heating oil, and this was where
the money was supposed to come from. If your word is good, you'll send the
money. If you're having difficulty raising the money, ask me for an
extention of the payment period. Let's not say "the check's in the mail"
and wait endlessly. The mail is not that unreliable, and I gave you my
address 5 times now, so there's no way it went to the wrong address.
I sold you a board worth a grand for only $375--the least thanks I could
get from you is on-time payment. So far I've got zilch, and Dennis is
telling me I made a mistake by extending credit like this. I hope he is
wrong.

Mark

Thanks for the reply. BTW, three payments of $125 totals to $375, not $325.
I hope this gets to you in time to correct that figure.
As for the processors, my main work at the station where I consult as an
engineer is keeping me pretty busy, but I do have a close friend and free
radio buff who is also asking regularly for me to design a
compressor/limiter for his station up in Albany NY. It's on the list of
things to do, although it's a large project that will take time and money
to set up the small-scale manufacture. Lately I've had none of either to
work with.

Sorry to hear about your accident, Maurice. I hope you recover fully and
use the experience to become more careful in the future. Life is too
precious and fragile to screw around with.
Regarding the payment, please recheck the amount:
$125

Please send it as soon as possible. Will you give me an expected mailing

Mark
Subj: Integrity
Date: 03/09/98
To: Djx94300
Maurice,
It is becoming obvious that your procrastination with making good on your
end of a mutual deal we agreed upon in which I sell you, in good faith, one
BE 5M250 console, for which you agreed to pay a total of $375 in three
payements beginning in December 1997, with the last payment being made in
Jan 1998, is an indication that you intend to default on your end of the
contract commitment.
I must say that I am disappointed. I was warned by others, never to conduct
business with people of South American creed, because they are said to
believe that "stealing is okay if you can get away with it." By extending
you a couple of weeks credit and not demanding full payment via COD at
delivery time, I sought to prove my associates wrong, showing that there
are people of Spanish creed who will not rip you off if you give them the
chance to be trusted with expensive merchandise. Apparently, it is now
looking like my associates were correct, and I was foolish to entrust my
property to you for deferred payment.
To date, you have not paid so much as one dollar of the agreed upon cost.
Therefore, it is with concern that I must inform you of my collection
practices in the event that you continue your default on the payments,
showing no effort to make any payment at all.
First, I will remind you that I have been exceedingly patient with you.
Anyone else would have summoned the police to your home to verify that you
posses property which is not paid for and hence can be regarded as stolen.
I don't like to stoop to such practices if a more civil means of working
out the problem can be arranged.
Therefore, I will propose a payment plan, which if you follow, I will
abstain from the following:
You will have until April 15th 1998 to deliver payment in full, via
certified check or money order, the sum of $375 persuant to our agreed
price for one BE 5M250 console. If April 15th passes and no payment is
received, I will report the circumstances and all correspondence between
us, for all the world to read about on USEnet. All documents will be
published on a web site, with a warning to others who might mistakenly do
business with you and lose money.
Such action would be quite embarassing you your reputation. If you have any
integrity and pride, I suggest you follow through with your end of the
commitment. You are obligated to to make good on this agreement, or be
required to return the merchandise, in the same condition it was sent to
you in, or face the above and possibly more extreme collection measures.
If you suspect I am joking, I suggest you call Alan Gifford at Motherboard
Discount Center in Gilbert AZ at 800-486-2026 and ask him what happened to
his business and personal freedoms after he attempted to bilk me out of a
substantial sum in 1993. Or, failing that, you can call Officer Ken Fixel
at the Gilbert Police Dept at 602-497-6832 and ask about case # 94-03408
for the details of what happened to MDC. I did collect ALL of my money, and
I fully intend to collect either my money, or the board. I don't know what
kind of game you are playing, but I sent that unit to you in good faith,
and you apparently decided you were getting a free ride.
You can avoid this unpleasantness, however, if you make good on your
promise to pay. I've given you more than a month extension now, to come up
with the total. Don't waste it.

Maurice,
Obviously you just don't care. You've got the board now, and you think
you're getting away with not paying.
Just for your information, not having that money is causing a lot of
problems. I still have no heat and it's cold up here. The oil company has
cut off services because I don't have money to pay the bill. If you think
I'm making this up, here's the attatched bill.
You're probably out of the country by now anyway. That was your 'good
news', wasn't it?

Maurice,
You really think that your problem is going to go away if you just ignore
it?
That's really unfortunate. Because I am serious about collecting my money,
which I need badly.
I'm sure you don't really want to rip me off, and I am certain you don't
want to experience a police raid looking for stolen property, but you leave
me little choice to collect my money. I've been more than patient with you.
If you don't make a substantial payment by April 15th 1998, I will be
compelled to share this entire exchange on the internet newsgroups, warning
others to steer clear of doing ANY business with you.
You still have a chance to salvage this situation and redeem your
reputation, if you have any self-respest at all. How 'bout it?

The number was $375. That's 3 payments of $125 each, final payment due, Jan
7th 1998, now past due.
You have SEVEN (7) days from today (4/8/98) to deliver payment in full
($375), to me, before I commence serious legal actions to collect my money.
Sincerely,
Mark Weiss

You have 5 (five) days left to deliver payment as per mutual agreement, for
the mixer I sold to you last year, in good faith.

I am by no means a rich person either. Please understand that I was forced
to sell my mixer because I needed basic necessities like heating oil and to
pay something toward my electric bill. A promise is a promise. Don't say
you are willing to pay $375 by a certain date and then fail to do it. I
could have gotten $600 for it from the CE at a Mississippi AM station!
How soon is "very soon"? I've been hearing that from you for six months.
Why don't you borrow the money from you rich grandfather that you claim
owns half of Miami?
My enforced collections proceeding will continue on-schedule. You have four
(4) days to comply.
Sincerely,
Mark Weiss

END OF LAST MESSAGE
And that was the last I heard from "Maurice". I have made many attempts to
pursuade him to stop stonewalling me. Six months is too long for his
stories to hold water. He is not to be trusted. Unfortunately, I have to
resort to taking this matter up with the Miami FL police.
