As one of those who got tied up in your mess, I don't think much of this attempt at an explanation or an apology.
First of all, Chris..Maybe the police don't scare you , but the only reason you didn't get arrested, is that your mother paid you out of trouble. She reimbursed, that I personally I know of, over $1000 that you had received for stuff you never came across with. I'm not sure of how many others that you got money from. There were 2 of us that were dealing directly with officer Steve Derusha with the Michigan State Police at the Newberry post & if your mother hadn't taken responsibilty for your mess, you would have been arrested.
All of your responses to my emails, can be only described as incoherent & made absolutely no sense & only confirmed the fact that you seem to be trying to cover lies with more lies. You gave an email address for the other person that didn't exist, you would not give us a name, you would not give the name of the business or a location. If it wasn't a scam, you should have been anxious to give us that info, so we could make contact, deal directly with them & get us off your back. Now, that would have made sense. You never even offered any kind of apology, just wild excuses.
I still have all the correspondence with you & you were in no way cooperative, as a matter of fact, your last email displayed the stupid arrogance that this post does. In your last email, you said to go ahead & call the police, that you didn't care....so I did. Again, let me state...the only reason you were not arrested...is your mother!
So...the only thing good & honest about this deal, was your mother. She was nice & done exactly what she said she would. She displayed what you should have..an complete open, up front honesty. She is the only thing that kept you out of jail. You should be extremely thankful you have her for a mother. She is a very nice woman.
If anyone here has sympathy for you, it is definitely mis-placed. If you get a lot of grief here, it is only because you brought it on yourself by your actions.
If you were on the level, maybe you should have first tried a personal apology to those who you caused so much trouble for, instead of coming on here trying to smooth the way for yourself. To me this post only confirms, that you don't seemed to have learned anything & more than likely, you haven't changed your ways.
Sorry...I don't buy it.
