    With a name like "Leopold" what did you expect?
  • Yes unfortunately we should have conducted better background check. Empty promises and after paying... Vanished.

    Yep - so what does he do? What's his scam? A name is easily changed, but understanding the scam is valuable!

    Huh? Your company got scammed by some loonie with a website that says it's still "under construction"?

    Word of advice: if you own "our company", close it down and try doing something else. If you're merely an employee of "our company", change jobs quick.

    Part of Wilshire (which is about 15 miles long...) is in 90210... so it's not totally ridiculous. There's not really any financial businesses there, and there's probably 10 virtual offices for every real one anyway...
