Username 100Units
Can someone that is familiar with Omega's writing style please check into the user named 100Units. I have received a couple of questions about his attacks on Lucious in the articles section. I am unfamiliar with his writing style so could someone verify for me?
Thanks,
Kyle
Kyle,
I emailed Joel a couple of hours ago.
100Units writes & misspells & acts just like all the other "children" of omega.

Kyle,
I am not as concerned about who 100units is at this time, however I am concerned about the member of this community who sent Lufos money to invest in his container project and lost his money. I am pretty sure he is not the only one and I can just about tell you who else did.
I was contacted by a member who told me the story about sending money to Lufos after reading his article, then contacted Lufos and he was told about this great opportunity, then found out all he got for his money was blue sky.
I asked him to contact Joel and tell him what happened, he declined my request, not because it did not happen, but like most people who are hustled by a con man they are to embrrra$$ed to admit the were conned.
So if anyone is wondering why I wrote what I did in replying to the article this is the reason. I saw this coming when I first saw the article (advertisement) as did Rajwarrior, we never discussed this before hand, but he saw what was going on when he posted Lufos's article was an ad.
Containers and Homeless people, is anyone really going to buy into this, sure they are what a combination. If anyone wants to help the homeless without, looking to profit here is a good link.

Then give Joel all of the information you have, including names of members who gave Lucius money.
Chadwick,
We are way beyond this stage, I appraised Joel when I was first contacted by a member of this site.
As I explained unless a formal complaint is made, which is hard for someone who was hustled out of money is willing to do then nothing can be done. However I can ask someone if they took any money from a member of this site that they recieved from an article promoting their product other than a Channel Partner.
Unlike your method of doing business I will not betray a confidense or give out any names of anyone that contacts me or use their name without there permission, I know I learned this the hard way.
My beef at this time is with Lufos, if he comes back and says he has not taken money from any member of this site for his container program, then I will take it from there.
I do not condone what Omega has done and if 100units is Omega then it is in Joel's ball park and I am sure he will do what is right. Joel and Patty are good friends and I was personally hurt by what Omega or whoever did while we were at the convention. I told Patty there are NUTS out there so, as shamless as it is, it is going to happen.
Sticks and Stones (hustling someone for money) may break my bones, but names (Omega) shall never hurt me.
Which is the lesser of two evils?

John,
I did not know about all of that, nor did I expect any explanation from you for it. My only concern was Omega.
Not to pry but could anyone let me know how many people have sent him monies, and for roughly how much are we talking about? I dont want to know who, just how big of a scam this may or may not be. Just for my own curiousity, and to warn my partners.
Thanks,
Kyle
Kyle,
I felt that I should say something since Lufo's name came up and I was the one questioning what was going on with the container article. I truly wish 100units had not responded to this article, it made it look like Lufo's was being picked on.
I know it hit rajwarrior hard because he was only looking out for the board and felt the same way I did it was an ad.
I am going to do a post in a little while in this forum about what I have learned from being in some of the businesses I have been involved with as to why I say some of the things I do.
I don't know at this time how many people sent their money in, all I know is the person who contacted me is not a flake and would not tell me this if it were not true.

Kyle,
Me too--that's why you called your topic "Username 100Units" and why I emailed Joel about the poster's writing "stile." LOL

John and Joel
I've actually talked with Lufos AKA Lucius about the container idea a couple times.
I liked the idea, I thought it was innovative and had possibilities.
I thought for the small amount of money he wanted people to invest, why not.
BUT.......I pressed him on what people would get for the money invested, if the idea succeeded and turned a profit. He never gave me a straight answer, just saying people would hold stock in the company(or whatever) and then they would get paid someday.
Not like any of the above is ground breaking news. It may help with your investigation and decisions on what to do.
If it was a lie the whole time, he does run a good con.

Mike,
I too have talked on the phone with Lucias and enjoyed our talk. He did not ask me about investing in the container business, however. Wonder Why?
If you notice there is new comment by 100units about Lucias having his License Revoked. I talked with Joel about should this comment be left up or not, I felt enough was enough and did not look to put Lucias through any more. Joel's call on this one.
I figured he has to live with what he has done and I doubt he will be back, pure speculation on my part. Could his idea work, I would rather put my money on the Big Wheel in a casino and that is the worst bet you can make.
You figure if he approached you he approached others and I am sure put their money up, I am thinking SKhunter is involved by her posts.
