BUNCH OF CRAZY CRAP IS…
… going on. I’m PISSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (And its pretty hard to get me pissed.)
I will not say more, will go and cool down before I say something stupid about these 3 “characters”.
Update: I’m trying to cool down but some people are really getting under my skin… There was supposed to be an internet truce but there was a podcast where a certain person was talking crap about without first getting to the bottom of the facts. I told the other guy I was gonna be gone for a few hours till late afternoon. This is just craziness.
I really want to work with these guys but right now I’m feeling BULLIED and I just want fair treatment. If this was really a big misunderstanding I figured people would appreciate it and let me sleep on this whole thing.
If this is an example of what will happen now that i’m trying to do a turn-around… I am just wondering what will happen if I end up being “married” to these guys for a year or whatever it happens to be.
Please guys, lets back off, calm down, sleep on it and have a good conversation and get things back on track. See my comments for more stuff as I was venting today…

Perhaps you should have kept the deadline, eh? I can’t imagine anything else that should have been more important this morning, can you?
July 14th, 2007 at 4:54 pm
Casey
You create your own crap, you should be mad at yourself.
July 14th, 2007 at 4:54 pm
Casey, you dont seem to understand what the word “now” means.
To fill in the blanks, Casey failed to follow through with the domain transfer to Duane today and Casey is pissed Duane may back out after Casey (again) failed to follow through on a commitment.

Why didn’t you post this? It was good advice.
You need a parrot. And fast.
There are at least 5 unusual uses for a parrot and some very good reasons why you should get one.
How often do you think about parrots?
Not often enough. These 5 tips will have you rushing out to the pet store.
In fact, don’t delay. Don’t even read the rest of this article. Don’t even get dressed, get in your car and go buy one.
Then rush back to find out how darn useful they are. Why are you still there? Get going now.
You back? Take the wrapping off of your parrot. Sit it on your shoulder, peering at the screen with you, so you can learn together. Prepare to be amazed.
1. Parrots mimic what you do. There…did you see? They are amazing creatures. In that split second, they discovered how to use a PC, keyboard and mouse. You can now get a proper job, and your parrot will blog for you all day. Better still, when you get home, they’ll tell you the best posts they read, recite any comments you’ve received, and save you trolling through the usual nonsense.
2. Not many people know this, but parrots are fantastic swimmers. They love it. And they can save you a fortune on plumbing bills. Blocked toilet? Simply flush your parrot. They get right to cause of the blockage and their beaks are especially designed to break up the crap. When the parrot emerges for air grab it straight away. They love it so much, they’ll just dive straight back in otherwise. Can’t be bothered washing them? Stick ‘em straight in the washer. They adore the spin cycle.
3. Lazy? Overweight? Unfit? Pissed off with society telling you to eat less or exercise more? Fear not. Parrots are not only IT-savvy, they are amazing chefs. And you can combine those skills together. They can internet shop. Have the ingredients for your favourite meals delivered, and a most fantastic gourmet delight served piping hot for your arrival home from work. Parrot feathers absorb grease, oils and other leftovers. So when you have finished, simply wipe your plate with your parrot. Voila! a clean dish for your next meal tomorrow.
4. Take them to the office. Perched on your cubicle, specially adapted bluetooth headsets make them ideal secretaries. They can take sales calls. Answer the usual bull you have to listen to from colleagues. And s*** on them if they really get on your nerves.
5. Improve your sex life. Chase your parrot around the room vigorously for 10 minutes. Make whooping noises. It has to be frightened. The adrenaline transfers an irresistible hormone which can be extracted from the sweat. Wipe it with a cloth. Dab your neck with the cloth before your date. DON’T go into the restaurant. Instead meet her for a drink. One whiff of your parrot-aroma will save you a fortune. She will want to go back to your place straight away. Just try stopping her undressing you in the cab home.

take a moment and take a deep breath casey. sorry that your deal seems to have run into a snag but good things are coming. tell us what happened. what lead to this miscommunication? i’m sure this can all be worked out without seeing another deal blow up. quit the failing forward casey. it’s time to stand up and succeed. i know you have it in you!!
July 14th, 2007 at 5:03 pm
Casey had a deadline. Unfortunately, Casey has no idea what the word “deadline” means. Casey missed his deadline by about 6 hours.
But
itsallgood (ASW)
July 14th, 2007 at 5:03 pm
Casey, email me with a way to contact you. I cannot get throuygh to you in email or phone. I may be able to help.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:04 pm
Casey Serin: NO DEAL!!!
July 14th, 2007 at 5:05 pm
Casey, getaway from these snakes as quickly as possible.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:07 pm
LOL …the greedy snakes are going to start feeding on each other .

Casey,
I miss you.

Your Blue Ball
July 14th, 2007 at 5:12 pm
Is there any spare room in your world? I definitely need a break from reality and thought maybe we could hang out and drink jamba juices together.
SC: juicy
July 14th, 2007 at 5:12 pm
Good luck Casey, it’s too bad everyone isn’t as sane and professional as you.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:14 pm
They are all snakes casey, dont listen to them, dont sign anything, dont settle anything. Your story is your own, dont let these bullies take advantage of you! Sell the blog and live like a king. Mark, Duane and everyone else can go rot!
July 14th, 2007 at 5:14 pm
So you finally realized that you entered another loosing deal? You realized that it wasn’t win-win?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:17 pm
Run away with me, Casey! We could be good together!
I have a 720 FICO and sweet lines of credit!!
July 14th, 2007 at 5:18 pm
It’s about time someone holds you accountable!
July 14th, 2007 at 5:18 pm
Casey -
Why are you so up set with Mark, Duane and Marty? You are the one who caused the mess. You are the one who created all the drama that has become your life.
If you can’t honor an agreement, why do you sign contracts? Seriously.
I told you over two weeks ago, you can’t renegotiate once the contract is signed.
More importantly, what happened to your “I’m doing this for my wife” - “this is for my marriage.”
Seems to me rather than moving forward with honor, you are back to using shady deal tactics. My understanding is that you now don’t want the money to go towards your wife’s credit card debt. I thought that was your number one priority?
If the proceeds of the blog don’t go to your wife’s debt, what do you propose doing with the money? Which lender will be the first to be paid? CashCall? Wells Fargo?
All eyes are on you Casey. Your actions speak louder than your words…. because, as we’ve all seen, your words are just lies.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:19 pm
Casey, I know you’re pissed, but this is the best thing that could have happened for you.
None of these people have your interests at heart. Quite the opposite. You should just shut down contact with them.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:21 pm
Well, Casey, the fact that you now wait until you say or do something you may regret is good. You should have done that before making decisions like selling or giving away the very things that bring you an income, most likely without knowing whether your other plans, such as getting a job that pays at least as much exactly when you need it, will work out. In fact, if the problem is that the deals you made, such as selling the blog and no longer publishing the book, will not work out, you should be thankful. If the initiative comes from the other party, those people are doing you a favour, because otherwise you may have a hard time undoing those deals, which you should if you can.
You may have to find a neutral party to act as a “moderator” for your own messages or deals. I would be willing to do that, and I’m sure other well-intentioned people would. On the other hand, if I were one of the “characters” you are talking about, I would rather find out about that in private, before you post any message here. After you cool down, if the “characters” don’t know certain facts that you want to post here, tell them about that. But don’t make any more rash decisions, such as a sale, before you wait long enough and think about it, and ask for advice. In fact, keeping the blog has the advantage that, although you should not listen to the first advice you get from strangers, there are many people who can give you ideas to think about.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:28 pm
Another deadline missed, another deal blown?
Oh dear.
BTW - GRNDFLOOR
July 14th, 2007 at 5:29 pm
I would like to make a sincere offer of 2,759 dirty pennies to buy your doman.
Deal? Or no deal? Deal? Or no deal?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:29 pm
Casey, you must cut these arrogant con-men out of your life.
They are taking the last thing you have of value and leaving you with nothing, not even your story belongs to you anymore. I feel bad for you.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:31 pm
Listen up, Casey:
You do *not* want to sell your only asset at this time.
You are only starting to make some serious money with it. If you run with it a little more, you can make a lot more.
Do *not* kill the goose that lays the golden eggs, dig?
Peace out!
Sincerely,
Joseph P. Kaplan III, Esq.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:31 pm
There’s the domain transfer, and then there’s the book. It sounds like Marty saw how Lost Mittens got away with murder, and now he wants his piece of the kill. Didn’t you all get the email? Marty is making all kinds of noise. Sounds to me like he’s the next one to try to extort money from Casey. If I can find the email, I’ll post it later.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:34 pm
It will all work out in the end.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:35 pm
deja vu. Caseys back. How long did that take?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:36 pm
Rule #1 Always face your accusers.
Rule #2 Do not do any irrational things based on emotions.
Rule #3 You see who your friends once you put them into a true position were they have to react and show there true colors.
If Duane was looking out for your best interests he would know your behavior and would accept and expect a delay. Nothing in business with any value go according to plan. There is always delays in everything in business when it concerns anything of value.
What I would say Casey is do a money-a-thon that should go into an escrow account specifically to hire a good attorney and send these snakes to h*ll were they belong.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:38 pm
The three characters are Duane LeGate, Mark V********* , and …? Marty?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:40 pm
Casey, looks like you have issues with picking who your friends are and/or how you treat your friends. I seriously think that you should just go back to the Russian church community and lay low from all this crap.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:42 pm
Oh man, you are in some hot waters now.
You are good at throwing people under the bus MULTIPLE times.
They don’t learn, so keep doing it.
So you got a better offer for your IAFF?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:46 pm
Casey,
Don’t let these guys p**** you over. They are just trying to take what you have built up and leave you with nothing.
Tell them to get lost and stay the hell out of your business.
July 14th, 2007 at 5:47 pm
Hey Pink Lips,
Put your money where your mouth is. Why don’t you come forward and help Casey out since you seem to be financially able to. I am personally sick of these bullies pushing him around. Why not help him kick dust in their face.
They act like he is a kid and disrespect him at their will. Can you set something up? Maybe even a supporters site where people can donate. You can also do this all legally and Casey can owe you or something.
It all just seems so unfair. What are your thoughts?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:48 pm
casey have u previewed the foreclosurecode.com website it clearly states that u have a prior contractual agreement with them u cannot transfer over rights to your foreclosure book because that agreement supercedes any and all agreements and if u could transfer over the book rights it would have to be clearly stated in the contract with marty’s approval thus the agreement that u signed under duress or not with other party is unenforceable. sorry young man u still got a book deal its not that easy to transfer something u have no power or authority to transfer so when the book sells sit down collect the capital and deal with it geesh oh and by the way don’t sell the blog or domain contact marty’s attorney first, oh wait u cant sell the blog its part of the book deal marketing parameter sorry kid u really cant sign anything without marty, marty’s attorney, your attorney or any attorney present, well i guess u need to refer all sales and transfers to marty’s attorney but don’t worry marty wont sell the blog or book deal i guess when u get large amounts of capital in your account and u want to sell or transfer it u can just make sure u don’t transfer it to those hustlers u have been dealing with recently
July 14th, 2007 at 5:50 pm
Did you forget to set your alarm clock?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:51 pm
Casey:
As I understand it, as part of your “settlement agreement” with Mark you handed over the blog and the sale of the blog requires his approval?
Did I misunderstand that? Or, are you able to sell the blog to the highest bidder?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:52 pm
So why is this filed under personal/feelings if this is ultimately a business transaction for your blog which was bringing in money?
July 14th, 2007 at 5:55 pm
Mark and Duane on the cast were laughing at you the same way Kiyosaki was. Stay far away from these people. I don’t know how your marriage is going, but I am not surprised your business relationships are not going well, and that they have betrayed you.
Duane was right about one thing; your blog is not a domain name, it’s a personality. The supporterz, haterz and trainwreck watchers will follow you wherever you go, and provide sweet passive income via web traffic.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:00 pm
hey Pink Lips I have contacted Casey 3 times, no response. I do think we should get a legal defense fund of some kind together, where people can donate (including myself) I am not going to pay for all of Casey’s BS, but I do not like what is being done to him by these bullies.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:02 pm
I agree with “Hey Pink Lips”
I was a hater but I DO NOT agree with the tactics of Duane and Mark. They are in this for themselves. They worked behind the scenes for their own benefit. They left haterz out of the loop because they wanted to get paid!
SO HOT LIPS, HOW CAN YOU HELP US TO HELP CASEY?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:02 pm
Well we all saw this coming now didn’t we?
There is no FBI agent is there?
The book profits are being stolen…
The site purchase is conveniently being organized as a result of being sued…
Takes a while for it all to register…
July 14th, 2007 at 6:03 pm
You were offered free advice over and over on this blog; never sign a contract without a lawyer.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:04 pm
Casey… I hope you are not selling your website. This is your big success!!! Screw Duane and the haterz!!!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:05 pm
Yo, Casey.
The email you sent me recently said you were shutting down the blog. What’s up? You need to shut this blog down and move somewhere far away, where you can start your life over.
You’ve really blown this, dude.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:06 pm
I can’t wait to hear about what new drama unfolds. Are you still closing down the blog?
www.1guymoney.blogspot.com
July 14th, 2007 at 6:08 pm
Did you sign the agreement to settle with LMP? Do you have a signed copy of the agreement?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:08 pm
I think I’ll march on down to my courthouse and file a lawsuit against M**** for his copyright infringement on Dan Brown. Whaddyall think? I mean, it pretty much worked for Mark.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:09 pm
Is there a help fund for Casey?
These goons have gone too far!
The guy is getting conned!
Even the bulk of the haterz were left with their mouths open but they are too embarassed to admit it!
I wonder will they take back LossMitPro and Duane?
They probably will!
Loosers!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:09 pm
@39. Hater Club
“Mark and Duane on the cast were laughing at you the same way Kiyosaki was.”
Mark wasn’t on the cast. I, however, was, so I know from whence I speak.
@34. Hey Pink Lips
“You can also do this all legally and Casey can owe you or something.”
HAHAHAHahahaha . . . . oh yeah, Casey has a GREAT track record of paying back people he owes.
@35. a lawyer
Most lawyers of my acquaintance use capitalization, punctuation, coherent thought, and paragraphs and everything. Maybe you’re an XTREME lawyer?

Do that and I’ll sue you good .
July 14th, 2007 at 6:14 pm
The haterz in EN won’t take Mark back because he already exposed his crappy cards and true intentions. They’ll still take Duane back any day of the week and twice on Sunday, because Duane insists he isn’t in this for the money but for helping G***** . He’s being the southern gentleman defending the poor wife.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:15 pm
Casey, these pricks have nothing on you, tell them to go pound sand.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:15 pm
Casey, quit making up fake supporters. Once again you f*** it up. Man you’re retarded.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:16 pm
@ Pink_Lips
Do you have the time to lead the masses? You obviously have the ballz(LOL). What is your background? I hate Casey, but I hate Mark and Duane more. Lets do this!!!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:20 pm
I can’t believe what happened to you on Thursday night. This was not the Casey Serin I remembered for the past 9 months. I can’t believe you let Mark take advantage of you like that. Good thing you are hopefully ripping up the agreement. Why should Mark get a hold of your stuff? Mark V********* is a vulture.

#19. Annie - the one and only
Talk about jumping at conclusions…. should you not wait for Casey to at least tell us something before you open your dirty mouth?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:21 pm
Sorry to hear about the problems.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:23 pm
Pink_Lips ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wanna see Pink_Lips rip off Duane and Mark’s ballz and shove it down their throat!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would ask for her to do the same for Benoit too but we all know he castrated himself with a table knife in his teens(LOL)
July 14th, 2007 at 6:24 pm

Casey,
We all read because we’re interested in you. Who could possibly stop you from selling this blog and starting up your own personal blog with advertisers etc? We’d all follow you. All you’d have to do is send an email out to your list, and in seconds your URL would be posted on EN and caseyhaterz.com and everywhere else. Maybe you’d lose some traffic, but all of us repeat visitors are here to read about YOU.
Good luck. I’m rooting for you.

Ok , I have this documented . I’m going to sue and call in the fbi . I will personally straighten you out . I know the law .
July 14th, 2007 at 6:30 pm
Casey,
You DO realize that the only thing that slack jawed redneck Duane Legate is after is your wife. And frankly you should have gone to the hearing first before settling anything with that ambulance chaser Mark.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:30 pm

Why don’t you, T and Flying Monkey Warrior move in to gether. You all have so much in common. Cats, GED, hate men, 40is, bastard children, angry beyoches.

Lucy and Ricky agree with us: you thrive on chaos.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:36 pm
Hey Casey:
What kind of meeting did you have and with what associate?
I thought you were going to be looking for a W-2 job?
It sounds like your still doing shady things. Why not tell Duane what you were doing. Who were you meeting with? Why were you meeting with him/her?
Come on Casey - it was noon on a Saturday - no “meeting with an associate” was worth losing $20,000.
ASW word: lawsuit - how appropriate!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:37 pm
My two cents:
1) LMP is crazy. I don’t know what his problem is, but he’s far more invested in this than he should be. Talk about throwing temper tantrums.
2) Duane: I think his heart is in the right place. But, it’s time to get out of this mess now.
3) Casey: Hopeless. You have the ‘Midas’ touch, so to speak.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:39 pm
Take a shot of massive focused wheatgrass and relax. It’s all good. Sit back and think about your options. Good things are coming!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:42 pm
Casey,
You are now hosed dude. Mark has legal rights to your book and IAFF and worse, he is pissed.
Not only did you blasted his name on the Internet, but now, you made a joke of him and he is FUEMING.
HE IS GOING TO GET YOU!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:42 pm
another thing guys i am gonna say it again casey does not have the authority to transfer his blog or book rights due to a prior contractual agreement with marty. its that simple compounded on that fact he has a wife. another thing the only way he can transfer anything is by having an attorney present and marty. i dont think he understands the contract between him and marty thus the settlement agreement with collection pawn is void and unenforceable.
casey and marty and their attorneys need to be on the next talkcast explaining this.
put restraining orders on collection pawn and real estate foreclosure con man
July 14th, 2007 at 6:43 pm
I wonder LMP, how a CA court would look at a contract signed under duress. Is it true in CA like elsewhere that such contracts are voidable? Think about it — your physical threats and goofy roots lawsuit. That may add up to duress.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:44 pm
I told you your decision was impulsive.
So have you called pink_lips yet?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:44 pm
58. LossMitPro:
At this point neither you nor Duane has much credibility left. Either you win a judgment against Case in court or you don’t. Nobody cares what you or Duane (whose recent ramblings on today’s radio cast are both uninformative and worse… boring) really has to say.
So… either get your a** in court and win or shut the fuxk up!!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:44 pm
Casey,
You are a genius! Now that the legal status of your blog (Duane and M****), your Book (LossMitPro and M****), and the “Casey” Personality (PrLinkBiz) can all be contested, you can sit back while they all do battle to the death with each other!
This is right out of Sun Tzu’s Art of War, “Take out your enemies with a borrowed knife”!
ASW: Cashflow
July 14th, 2007 at 6:45 pm
Casey, remember possession is 9/10ths of the law. If you can keep IAFF running, you will reap the benefits. Don’t make another mistake, or listen to baseless threats. Your financial future is at stake.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:47 pm
(In response to a new EX PART THREAT I sent the following to the two characters)
WHAT KINDA OF CRAP IS THIS??????????????????????
1) I was told there is going to be an email for me to approve
2) I had to leave for a meeting and I didn’t see any email yet, so I go anyway
3) I come back and I see Duane is pulling out and sending me a bunch of threatening emails, i see Mark sending me a bunch of threating emails too
4) I got PISSED, so I went on the podcast to yell at Duane and hung up because i’m pissed
5) I send an email to both Duane and Mark saying i’m pissed and need time to calm down
6) Mark continues to THREATEN ME and now sends me this STUPID EX PARTY CRAP!!! Especially when I was ASKING FOR SOME TIME TO COOL OFF!!!!!!!
I had NO INTENTIONS OF BACKING OUT!!!! But it was already a stressful situation. When both you guys threatened me I seriously felled like i’m being bullied since I told Mark I will be OUT FOR A FEW HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What kind of crap is this??????????????????????
July 14th, 2007 at 6:49 pm
wake the hell up kid. Don’t you think it’s about time?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:50 pm
>I had NO INTENTIONS OF BACKING OUT!!!! But it was already a stressful situation. When both you guys threatened me I seriously felled like i’m being bullied since I told Mark I will be OUT FOR A FEW HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:50 pm
Casey if you hadn’t hung up you would have heard why all that happened as it did. Both Mark and Duane think “old Casey” is back and are acting accordingly. Duane even said if it was a big misunderstanding so be it, that everything would be worked out.
Duane thought you had started the transfer and that it was DONE, no waiting for anything.
It just snowballed from there.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:50 pm
“I will not say more, will go and cool down before I say something stupid”
There’s a first time for everything.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:51 pm
Who cares? Just cut them out of your life. Completely. Don’t talk to them, don’t make up with them, don’t email them, don’t respond to them, don’t contact them.
They’re just in this for their fifteen minutes of fame, and if they can bully or trick you out of some cash, that’s icing on the cake.
They are a negative influence on your life. Just leave them behind.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:53 pm
If you knew you had to leave, why’d you wait so long to do the transfer? And wouldn’t you check to make sure it had gone through?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:53 pm
Casey:
What kind of meeting was so important to stop the transfer?
Why did you not e-mail or call Duane and let him know that you had a meeting?
My understanding is that it was very clear, you were to execute the transfer by a specific time. You were walked through the process.
Did you execute the transfer?
I can’t believe any meeting was worth more that the transfer of IAFF that results in a $20,000 sale.
Tell us what was so important.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:54 pm
Casey, handling the sale to Duane should have been your top priority today. Why wasn’t it?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:55 pm
There is no crap in this situation. In grown-up land words have meaning. Don’t try to turn this around. It’s always someone else’s fault in Caseyland. A deadline is a deadline, and you had several days to get it going.

“I had NO INTENTIONS OF BACKING OUT!”
Learn how to meet conditions people give you then jackass. For example, when G***** says she wants X, DO X.
“What kind of crap is this??????????????????????”
YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THIS IS. This is you WANTED. You want to play the victim and cast those you screw as the villains. Give me a break.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:55 pm
I just hope, if these people are really NOT trying to screw me they will let me cool down and get back into this deal… but when people are THREATENING ME OUT THERE… it just aint right… i’m already edgy about this whole thing.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:55 pm
Casey - go sit in a bath tub full of ice cubes, that will cool you down. Oh wait, you don’t have a bathtub - silly me!
Why didn’t you tell Duane that you would be delayed by a meeting?
July 14th, 2007 at 6:56 pm
Mark and Duane are both bullies. Sell the blog to the highest bidder, take the money, and persue your dreams. You can do it casey, i believe in you! You can be a great real estate success if you had one more chance..and the chance is to sell the blog for as much as possible. Do it casey!
July 14th, 2007 at 6:56 pm
Someone (I am not in the USA), please contact a lawyer, ask him/her to open a bank account where supporterz can donate money to pay for an attorney so Casey can get legal help to kick the asses of those two guys once and for all.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:56 pm
carrot and a stick. deliver: fine. fail: stick. if you’re telling the truth, then the transfer will go through. if you’re playing games, then you’ll hem and haw but avoid the xfer. pretty basic.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:57 pm
Casey,
Mark is bulling you. If he wanted to help you, he would not be pushing you into this. He is also making money out of the deal. Mark is trying to screw you.
You need to talk to a lawyer. Mark does not know the law, he is bluffing you. If you had a lawyer representing you Mark would run away.

TO ALL POTENTIAL BUYERS OF IAFF BLOG
Please take notice that any transfer of the IAmFacingForeclosure.com domain
name, is subject reversal under California law. Under stipulated settlement
pursuant to California law, Casey Serin DOES NOT have sale rights. Therefore
should money exchange between you and Casey Serin for a sale of said domain,
such a sale is subject to reversal by court order.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:58 pm
They’re likely trying to get you to realize that when you make a commitment, you have to follow through with that commitment or face the consequences.
How many times in the past 10 months have you actually accepted and dealt with consequences, Casey? You probably don’t know because you haven’t. It’s long overdue.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:59 pm
“WHAT KINDA OF CRAP IS THIS?”
Here’s what kind of crap it is:
1) You were given a deadline.
2) One final last chance.
3) You blew it.
4) Those who gave you the last chance are angry that you’ve burned them again.
5) You shouldn’t send e-mails when you’re pissed.
6) It’s “ex parte,” not “ex party.”
7) Judge Chang will not be happy to see you in her courtroom again.
8) She will probably press the “ejector seat” button and dump you into the pit of FBI wolves below the courtroom.
July 14th, 2007 at 6:59 pm
I think you need to sit down for a minute. You agreed to a settlement, you agreed to the transfer… effectively in front of a Judge.
YOU DON’T F*** WITH JUDGES!! Get it?
If not.. you’ll find out why next week.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:00 pm
FFS, Casey COMMIT!
Or if you’re going to be flighty, don’t do it in your classic style. This “ignore-mode” BS isn’t cutting it.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:00 pm
You should be relieved.
If anyone calls saying that they are FBI the first thing you should do is ask for a badge number and a call back number. Verify that you are dealing with an agent and if not, have the idiot face charges for impersonating an officer.
My guess is that the agent that called was a prank to add to your court drama. Got you all shook up after court and in a panic you coughed up the story rights without LMP paying a dime. Interesting.
Duane’s offer of $20K and 50% of the gross was nuts. Anyone that can afford to offer 50% is ripping their customers off or overpromising.
There are a ton of folks in the RE biz that would scoop up the url quickly and easily.
Why limit your scope of options to a small group of people that have invested so much of their time screwing with you?
Good luck.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:00 pm
I always sleep on a decision before signing anything, and it’s good advice, especially since looks like you are having second thoughts about this alleged deal. I believe that under California consumer laws, you can cancel a contract within a certain time period. You need to talk to a lawyer about this, and don’t be bluffed by threats. There must be really big bucks involved here, or they wouldn’t be so anxious.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:00 pm
All I’m asking is for a little bit of time to get into my senses as I’m known for doing impulsive things but these characters won’t give me sometime to cool down… still trying to do the right thing.
But some people are throwing around THE LEGAL STICK for dealing with personal issues… i just can’t stand it.
I was giving these guys the benefit of the doubt and I really think they have some good intentions, i just always HATED their tactics, plastering my personal emails all over, throwing around frivolous lawsuits…
BUT HEY, i’m willing to forgive all that ‘cuz I know the their intentions are good… BUT GIVE ME SOME FREAKIN SPACE AND LET ME CALM DOWN… pressure is making it worse!!!
July 14th, 2007 at 7:01 pm
@ Casey# 59
“I just hope, if these people are really NOT trying to screw me they will let me cool down and get back into this deal… but when people are THREATENING ME OUT THERE… it just aint right… i’m already edgy about this whole thing.”
Just admit that you screwed up the deadline and maybe LossMit and Duane will do business with you again. Wasn’t the “deal” done and you just failed to follow through? So typical, kind of like that Cash Call fiasco in March, isn’t it? Pay attention to the details. If you’re going to be late for a business appointment, you need to let everyone know.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:02 pm
Chill out Casey, they just don’t understand the stress of honoring the terms of a contract.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:02 pm
Oh what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive…
Hey KC, thanks for bringing all the lowlifes, con artists, and greedmeisters out of the woodwork so we can see how Americanz act!
July 14th, 2007 at 7:03 pm
You were one left click away from initiating the domain transfer when you dropped out of communication (from Duane’s point of view). You say you emailed Mark to tell him you were taking some time to cool off. Duane had no way of knowing that. You missed the deadline, whether it was for noon EDT or PDT. You don’t see how to a real businessman, it seemed like you were breaking your agreement with Duane?
July 14th, 2007 at 7:03 pm
Casey, YOU were the one that made the deal. If you needed time, you should have said so. But then again, that’s not like you.
Also, it’s very immature to blame others for your screw ups and incompetencies. Man up and own your actions. Stop whining. It’s annoying.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:03 pm
You won’t get much space in prison. Maybe a 6X8 cell if you’re lucky HAHA
July 14th, 2007 at 7:03 pm
Casey, this deal is very bad. I can’t believe that by now, instead of regretting it and trying to break it if you can, you are the one who wants to get back into it. One day, possibly as soon as you cool off, you will be glad that this opportunity was offered to you. Don’t you see that you have actually been led to want something that is bad for you and deep inside do not want? By all means, seize any opportunity to keep the blog and publish the book!
July 14th, 2007 at 7:05 pm
Notes to self :
1. Next time I sue myself make sure I send myself to the correct courthouse address .
2. Don’t let anyone make me out a fool .
3. Oops , I said “fool” .
4. I have to amend the suit to include #3 , nobody says “fool” to me . Especially me .
July 14th, 2007 at 7:06 pm
Why cool down? Just keep on blogging and monetize this thing.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:07 pm
Casey, their intentions are *NOT* good. How many people have to tell you that before you wake up?
July 14th, 2007 at 7:07 pm
I agree that you should cool down.
I disagree that you should cool down and get back into this deal.
These people are, and have been, using you. Just walk away and leave them permanently in the past.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:07 pm
Don’t worry Casey, i’m pretty sure California has a 180 day “cooling off” grace period.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:10 pm
you called for the pressure by caving on the first lawsuit, now it’s their ‘make KC make a decision now’ button…
July 14th, 2007 at 7:10 pm
@ Casey comment #3:
What pressure?
July 14th, 2007 at 7:10 pm
Damn, Casey! One of your truly admirable qualities is your ability to handle stress and maintain your composure, whatever the situation. Now you seem to have lost even that! Let me guess, the three characters are Duane, Mark, and Marty. I guess that Marty wants something from the sale of the domain too? Take a deep breath and talk to these guys. You have got to get this deal done. Remember, it will benefit the person that I’m not supposed to mention. One more thing, you have got to meet your deadlines or you will not survive a W-2 gig for long.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:11 pm
F-
These guys Casey……These are the same people that get in a car accident with a millionaire and sue them for millions….
typical ambulance chasers.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:12 pm
casey do not contact collection pawn or real estate assistance con man for anything. bring your lawyer, marty, to next court date. do not let anyone use extortion against you before you know it they will want u to shine their shoes or worst maybe have u arrange something for u or your family. they are bad con man trailer park trash wanna be hustlers. u need to stay away from them do not sign anything with them u do not own anything if they keep contacting your family tell your family to stay away from them they are con artists and hustlers if your family does not listen fine so be it. get a good attorney. use your revenue from your blog to pay for it monthly like 1000.00 or so a month have your supporterz create a legal fund draft a note on pdf fax and sign pay them back with revenue from blog easy.
i am concerned about your safety and their true intentions put a restraining order on them now
July 14th, 2007 at 7:12 pm
set up a talk cast and we can all talk Casey, do NOT let Mark duane Nigel any of them on. We will not talk about them, you need some support.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:13 pm
This site is all fake. Casey sold it when it closed weeks back. Don’t believe any of this drama its all designed to get you back to read the next installment.
Casey, why don’t you send us some pics of you and the misses in Australia TOGETHER? We know the truth.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:17 pm
Casey, if you want the deal, transfer the domain and Duane will honor it. Do it now before he backs out.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:19 pm
Grow a set
July 14th, 2007 at 7:20 pm
File a restraining order against both of them for harassment. If this is such a SWEET deal why the pressure tactics? Something isnt right, you are dealing with some psychos here. Do not respond to them at all right now Casey.

How ’bout just getting a lawyer to look into it for you. Otherwise it’s like trying to operate on yourself dude.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:33 pm
Casey,
I’m absolutely… words elude me. Dude, you are the biggest criminal I’ve ever seen on the Internet. Not only are you a scam artist, but you are also an irresponsible idiot.
You deserve all the crap you can get. You deserve losing G***** . You deserve jail.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:36 pm
Hey Casey, if this site is really making $3k per month it is worth much more than $20k.
Lets say we were to assume you could profit a consistent $2k per month from this site. If we were to give it a conservative valuation like it were a public company it would have a p/e value of at least 18.
That means if your site can make $2k of profit a month it would be worth a minimum of $36k. If we were to give it the valuation of other web sites Google, Yahoo or Amazon we would be talking about valuation over $100k.
Casey, these three snakes are not your friends, and they only have their interests in mind.
I know what it is like to be young, trusting and idealistic. The world does not work that way. Even if you only had 5 dollars in the bank, you will always have hucksters around you with their hand out. They want your 5 dollars and any additional dollars you could make in the future.
Casey, I bet if we went back in time and looked at everyone of your deals we could find thousands of dollars going to these scumbags.
Its time to wake up, and start kicking these Don Lapres to the curb. Without you, they have nothing.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:39 pm
This is an unbelievable story!!!!!!!!
July 14th, 2007 at 7:43 pm
zewg,
The ad revenue for the next couple years under the agreement was to go to Casey’s wife’s debt, not to these “scumbags” who are offering him money for his domain.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:43 pm
Casey, if you had a close friend you could trust that happened to be a lawyer, wouldn’t you be working with them to sort through this mess?
I am certain that there might be a couple supporters in this site who happen to be attorneys and may be willing to lend you a hand (publicly or privately- their choice). I think you should make a public request for their services and get some legal muscle of your own so that you do not feel cornered into making impulsive decisions. I got around to hearing the last podcast and simply can not believe this drama. Either you and all of the characters in this story are the most brilliant marketing publicity gurus on the planet, or we are witnessing an unprecedented series of unfortunate events equivalent to a slow-motion train wreck where the audience can interact.
Seriously though, in spite of your high level of intelligence, you are juggling too many balls right now and even your 131 I.Q. isn’t going to cut it. Marital problems, FBI investigation, fire-sale with your assets, along with a cadre of conmen and haterz nipping at your heels would simply be too much for anyone.
By the way, I suspect the FBI investigation phone call was a hoax. One of your more clever haterz may know how to spoof telephone caller ID’s and probably inserted the FBI phone number prior to making the call. This is VERY easy to do and there are services now like spoofcard.com that have made it even easier. I tried calling your cell phone the other day to demonstrate how easy this is but apparently you’ve changed your number. In any event, the FBI calling you as a courtesy simply does not make sense. Someone must have had an interest in making you believe this was true for their own personal motives.
Difficult as it might be, take some time to “cool off” and clear your mind of fear. Begin with your marriage and keep your wife away from the “wolves in sheep’s clothing” you’ve met through this forum. It needs to be you and your wife against the world- period.
-Alex
p.s. Change her phone number too while you’re at it.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:44 pm
Maybe you should learn to meditate. It might help to clear your head and it’ll certainly help to dampen your ego.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:44 pm
The Haters sounded pathetic on their call. All of these nitwits have way too much time out there. What the heck is it with taking away time from your family and LIFE to organize these calls and talk about CASEY? Get REAL people….there is a REAL world out there. If you want to get Casey arrested or whatever, that is one thing, but extorting money and playing this game is dumb.
Casey you rock on as long as you can. Don’t you dare make any deals with these Haters.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:48 pm
Casey,
Of course they don’t want to give you time to “cool down”. They don’t want you to think about this or talk to anyone because they know they are taking advantage of you. If you stopped, thought about it and talked to a lawyer they know that you probably wouldn’t go for it. So the ball is in your court buddy. The “deal” you agreed to with them was obviously under duress and through coercion.
Don’t be bullied. If it is a real deal, they will wait for you.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:48 pm
Casey,
Is it true that it was YOUR idea to give away IAFF and the book rights to Mark, as opposed to Mark demanding you give that to him? If so, what were you thinking? Mark doesn’t have your best interests in mind. You think your true friends are ever going to take you to court?
July 14th, 2007 at 7:50 pm
In business you have to keep one thing in mind. When you go into a business transaction with someone you should always go into it with the understanding that they are trying to screw you because more than likely they are. If by some chance they don’t screw you then you can be pleasantly surprised.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:53 pm
the only snake involved in this matter is named Casey Serin. Grow up, Casey, anything that goes wrong is YOUR FAULT.
July 14th, 2007 at 7:54 pm
A previous poster said your domain and website is worth more than $20k, but the only reason this website attracts traffic is because so many people like to read your posts and comment on them. Under new ownership, this website is likely to have a limited life. What kind of content would keep current readers coming back, if Casey’s out of the picture?
July 14th, 2007 at 8:02 pm
You get a lawsuit filed against you. You publish the name and contents of it. plaint-tard is pissed that you publish is name and info. Plaint-tard made it part of the public record by filing ANYTHING in court. Plaint-tard has no cause of action, which is why plaint-tard settles prior to hearing. PLAINT-TARD is a big dumb no-nothing poser using you…or U ARE the -tard.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:03 pm
just imagine making an income from the internet while also holding a job. like, well, like me. oh wait i’m a w2 looser!
July 14th, 2007 at 8:04 pm
so take your time and calm down casey. don’t spend any time to read anything online. when you’ve finally calmed down, pick the phone and call duane. see if he’d like to consumate the deal at your previously agreed upon terms. if the answer is yes, turn your computer on then and transfer the keys to him. take a moment and say thank you. and then move on. don’t go back to see what your haterz think or feel. it’s all irrelavent to you at that point.
good luck casey. we all know you have the strength to do the right thing so you can move on with your life.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:05 pm
@60. Casey Serin
“But some people are throwing around THE LEGAL STICK for dealing with personal issues… i just can’t stand it.”
You said repeatedly it was a business meeting. Now it was for “personal issues.” Which was it? Pick only one.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:09 pm
Casey, had a bad feeling that these 3 guys were taking advantage of you with maybe the exception of your book deal guy. I just wish you could have held out a little bit longer. It seemed you were close to turning it around and using your amazing nobody to internet celeberty to make back the money you needed to pull off the turn around. I think you will look back and see the biggest problem you have is not beleiving in yourself and staying focused. You were so close despite the many mistakes. Turning over your writes to Mark and selling the Domain to Duane looks like the end of the line for this story. Man, you have done an amazing job of generating a great American Story. I would get G to wake up and realize that she still has a huge opportunity to tell her side of the story. I would buy that book. Get her on board and get her book done and get her on the big talk shows. Maybe even Oprah. Good luck Casey. In the future get good legal advice and then make your sweet deals.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:10 pm
I am not sure what has gone wrong, however it seems time to have a good look @ everything. I am not supprised this is doing your head in, cause now it’s starting to do mine in as well. Casey just make sure you get the best deal you can or it will have to be no deal @ all.
Side Note can someone please fill me in on what W2 job stands for ????????
July 14th, 2007 at 8:16 pm
Man, this is addictive.
It’s all about Casey and not the domain. The domain could be anything with the masses following Casey wherever he goes. The guys trying to pry the domain from his death grip don’t get this fact. If they did take it over, people would lose interest.
I’m not privy to all the details but I hope the C-man retains control of it. Otherwise it’s dead.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:17 pm
What people need to realize is that my goals are sincere:
1) shut down the blog and get the best deal (Duane even blessed me getting a better offer if I can!)
2) pay down or pay off my wife’s credit cards
3) also have money for defense attorney
But when i’m being pressured or not treated right it just doesn’t feel like the 2 characters understand that what they’re doing is the OPPOSITE of helping me!!
Using legal threats doesn’t make it any better. Also pulling out on me today when I simply walked away from the computer is not right either. Especially since I told one of them that I will be away:
The threats came in while I was gone. I don’t have a cell phone anymore, by the way, so I can’t answer to calls.
Before I left for my appointment, I was expecting a confirmation email of the transfer which I needed to approve, based on my conversation with Duane’s tech guy. I didn’t get the email so I figured I’ll check it after I come back from my meeting. The meeting went for a few hours. I come home right away and check my computer.
What do I see??
I see a bunch of emails (like 5 emails of the same thing) with “you better finish the transfer NOW or I’m backing out” that just really rubbed me the wrong way. Also the other character is threatening legal action again, when I TOLD HIM THIS IS UNCALLED FOR when we met in person. Throwing around legal threats is NOT THE WAY to keep things calm and low key. I am not being unresonable.
Seriously, i’m not backing out, but now I feel BULLIED. Very bullied.
I’m stilling willing to work with these characters but I was simply asking a little time to cool off in light of all this crap. I don’t want to say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing.
Yeah they say now, WELL WHY DON’T YOU JUST TRANSFER THIS TONIGHT and then it’s all good. Well its NOT ALL GOOD right now.
Anybody who is reasonable will not be using this kind of tactics. I’m just asking for reasonable treatment.
Also, this is Saturday night for crying out loud!! What is so wrong with letting me sleep on it or waiting till the next BUSINESS day?
Duane says he is under a timeline (for getting new content up before IAFF goes down on Aug 3rd)…. but the thing is, he KNOWS how tough this whole process has been for me and I’m asking for a little bit of patience. Today has been really weird, finding all those emails in my inbox and the other guys legal threats.
I told Duane I can work out a way for the blog to stay on another week if needed for his timeline to still be met.
Then when I heard the podcast that HE called for… the question is…
WHY GO ON THE PODCAST AND TALK CRAP ABOUT ME??? If we were DONE with internet talk about each other…
(YES WE BOTH AGREED TO INTERNET TRUCE ON THE PHONE LAST NIGHT)
July 14th, 2007 at 8:17 pm
Casey, it’s already rather well documented that you’re impulsive and will sign anything. Both Duane and LMP are very aware of that. They don’t want to give you time to think things through.
Only a few weeks ago, Duane and the rest of the haterz were talking about how evil Marty was for causing your marriage to break up. Next thing you know, Duane is posting emails from your wife on the haterz blog and getting people to encourage her to leave you.
That’s pretty hypocritical if you stop and think about it.
A whofailedtoday/campidiot troll claims that he was the person that called you and claimed to be an FBI agent. I’m not convinced that it wasn’t someone else who stands a bit more to gain than some LOLZ at your expense.
You know, Casey, at least when the NLL bought you a hamburger from In-N-Out when they tried to steal your story. They didn’t try to get an additional 1500 dollars out of you to cover “costs”.
A lot of the haterz are starting to see that perhaps these people that they’ve cheering on aren’t exactly as pure as they claim to be. Perhaps it’s time that you see it too.
I know you’re not going to do what you need to do, but you really should STFU, delete the last few posts and all the comments associated with them, and go speak to an attorney while you still can.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:24 pm
“…pay down or pay off my wife’s credit cards…”
No. You kept asking LMP if you could receive the money directly rather than having the money go to escrow for her creditors. If there was or is a way for you to get your hands on that money, that’s what you planned to do.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:24 pm
3 characters? You’ve got that right, finally. It’s more like 3 Bozo’s.
It’s n secret that they ulterior motives.
And they have tactics to reach the motive.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:27 pm
casey calm down and have a wheatgrass shot
July 14th, 2007 at 8:27 pm
It looks like Casey is outdoing me.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:27 pm
The last podcast seemed to end on a happy note, but not surprisingly it looks like there are problems. I don’t think this is ever going to stop until you close the blog and move on. Even though it is making you money you are going to be spending 10 hours a day dealing with your critics.
Hope the job hunt is going well.
18 days to go.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:29 pm
Casey
Take a deep breath
You could put an end to this very easily……
Show us the you got the confirmation e-mail you were waiting for that indicates you had done everything in your power prior to 12 noon PDT to execute the transaction.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:30 pm
Here is an email I just sent to the two characters… again just trying to be reasonable:
July 14th, 2007 at 8:32 pm
“Yeah they say now, WELL WHY DON’T YOU JUST TRANSFER THIS TONIGHT and then it’s all good. Well its NOT ALL GOOD right now.”
From an outsider’s standpoint it looks like you’re just stalling, trying to make them look like the bad guys. If you wanted to sell to Duane then why not just do it. What are you waiting for?
July 14th, 2007 at 8:34 pm
Not that you’ll post this.
And not that you’ll ANSWER it.
What was your other appointment about today?
July 14th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
“What’ is going to happen this weekend that I must transfer the domain tonight?”
What’s going on is that you AGREED to do the deal at a certain time, and then failed to do it. Does that not mean anything to you?
July 14th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
Why not just say that you have Sellers Remorse and that you don’t want to sell.
You pretty much stuck your finger way deep in LossMitPro’s a**s and you wiggled it a lot.
July 14th, 2007 at 8:39 pm
These guys are not just trying to screw you. It’s way worse than that.
Casey, you’re plowing new ground every week, and you’re selling yourself short because you don’t know any better. These three people are con artists like none I’ve seen recently.
I listened to the entire clip today where you called in and finally hung up (which I would have done also). They had a big laugh and made bets on what you would do next. Completely “little league”, unprofessional bottom feeders they demonstrated themselves to be.
The “ma*k” thing is so much hot air. You are the asset, not the blog.
Isn’t it interesting that these knuckleheads seem to think they’re losing so much money here, that they would take you to court, but only offer you 20k for your blog up front? Or a future value of 50k with residuals? Come on. If it’s worth fighting like this, jack up the price to say 180k and insult their inability to pay the real professional dough.
The domain “I am facing foreclosure” was a genius play. Don’t give that away for $20k. After taxes it’s only 10k.
You have the most notorious foreclosure story/blog of any 24-year old on the internet! That’s worth more than 20k before taxes.
And what’s with this effort to give the money to your wife to pay off credit cards? That’s not spending money. That’s investment money! You haven’t made any money yet to start paying off squat. This is principal, not profit!
It takes money to make money, and the last thing you want to do is do the same thing you did last time —- dump it down the drain and try to keep the kite flying.
So what that CashCallk doesn’t get paid for a while? They’re worse than the Villiansenore and his ilk. Screw them for a while. It can’t get worse, because at this point you’ve got nothing to give up except your pride, and that went out the window back in Sept!
Your wife and her credit will just have to suffer for the time being. Put the blog up for bid with a licensed internet auction house if you want. When your reserve of $180k is met, sell. If not, crank that baby up a notch and make it worth 180k!
BTW, Ebay comes to mind as a licensed internet auctioneer. Then put the cash money into the corp. and not your personal accounts. Operate the corp as usual, and separate that from anything a judgment could attach. Then as you make more and more money, you can pay off CashCall, or settle for a discount (without telling the world what you’re doing). Business won’t cooperate with you when they believe you’ll make any bargain they make with you a public spectacle. They have stockholders to protect. This is one reason you couldn’t negotiate a practical short sale. The whole transaction exposed the lender. Exposing transaction details is what gets you into trouble. Stop doing this.
Anyway, I’m rooting for you, and will wait for more news with my fingers, toes, legs and eyes all crossed —- for you!

He doesn’t believe you because you have lied over and over again. Why would anyone believe a word you say?

Casey
These are your words:
“Before I left for my appointment, I was expecting a confirmation email of the transfer which I needed to approve, based on my conversation with Duane’s tech guy.”
“What’ is going to happen this weekend that I must transfer the domain tonight?”
Which is it? Did you execute the transfer earlier or not? It appears you are indicating two things - that you took the necessary steps to execute the transfer….. and there is a confirmation e-mail that is evidence of that action. Or, that you did not take those steps and at this time don’t want to take those steps.
And your final comment: “I don’t get why you don’t believe me!!”
Ever hear the story of the boy who cried wolf? It is only your actions, not your words, that can be believed.
