To: Duane and Mark.
After sleeping on this whole thing and seeing how you Duane continue to break my trust and STILL talk crap about me in public and interfering in my marriage, even after you told me you will stop, and how you Mark continue to bully me with your frivolous use of the legal system…. my decision is as follows:
I am canceling all agreements I’ve ever had with you about my domain or the “settlement” [which was really done to get Marty off my back (I’ll settle with Marty myself)] or anything else you may be expecting from me. I’M OUT!
I don’t want to make a big scene out of it.
I thank you for the help in the past. Even though I HATE your tactics, I was willing to cooperate lately believing you have my best interest at heart, but obviously we all are not meant to work together in any capacity. For my side, I also ask for forgiveness for any hurt or pain I may have caused you guys in the past [on a personal level].
Regardless of your intent, your actions show me that you are trying to screw me. Even if you’re not trying to, the way you treat me I think is not right. If I sell this domain to you Duane I will have to deal with you and Mark for a year. I do not want to do that. I’m done with my emails being plastered and my trust being violated and Mark’s bullying me around.
At this point I just want you both to please BACK OFF and go away from my life. You both know I don’t owe you anything. Any cost you Mark may have incurred was as a result of YOUR abuse of the legal system. You DID NOT have to sue me. You could have asked me to remove your posts [with your real name] and I would have done that like I did in the past.
Now please respect my decision, show me some human courtesy and please walk away. I don’t want to be enemies but we can’t be friends either. So lets just forget about the whole thing and move on with our lives.
Thank you.
[To my readers: also see my long comment below and another one about my heavy thoughts and feelings right now. Oh and take a look at Marty’s statement. It’s time to get everything brought out to light and wind this whole drama down.]

First?

I suspect the response you’re going to get is … “tell it to the judge.”
-
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
seriously hobbit, those contracts were like, so last week anyway… right?
hahahahahahahaha
-
Yes, Casey is a MAN now,
show them,
be tough and join the army..
screw your 2 ‘friends’
-
Casey,
Stand your ground and keep your chin up. People are trying to take the only thing you have left and they don’t care about you at all. Stay away from these Vultures.
-
::applauding::
That’s the best post you’ve ever written Casey. I think you’re finally becoming a better businessman! M*** is going to throw more ‘legal eagle’ emails at you. Just ignore them and get a restraining order. He’ll try to take you to court again. Don’t even show up. They can’t seize any of your assets because you don’t have any.
Might I suggest you set up a meeting with G to find out if she’s willing to work things out when you pay off her debt. In the meantime, monetize the heck out of this blog and give her every cent, and/or sell it as originally planned. You can still build it up for a couple months then sell when the revenues are flowing again.
good luck.
-
Casey, what kind of universe do you live in where agreements can be terminated like this:
So lets just forget about the whole thing and move on with our lives.
That’s crazy. If you make a commitment to behave in a certain way, then that’s the way you behave… even if, three days later, you decide that it’d be inconvenient or foolish.
You keep saying you’re being bullied, but you’re not. You’re just being held to agreements you made.
-
Good for you KC.
-
Casey,
Couple of questions:
1) Is IAFF still scheduled to go down on 08/03?
2) Is the Foreclosure Code book now back on?
3) Has Marty threatened to sue you?
4) Are you still planning on getting a W2 job?While I can understand that you don’t want to feel pressured or bullied (not saying that’s what they are doing, only that being bullied is how you feel right now), I hope that you ultimately come to realize that getting out of the blog game is in the interests of your legal situation, G, and your future happiness.
Just my $0.02
-
Casey,
Are your plans still the same (to close down the blog, try to sell it, etc. just without Duane and Mark) or have they changed entirely?
-
Why is this not surprising?
But good luck anyway
-
snowflake,
remember when you would talk about your wife on your blog and it would upset her and she asked you to stop?
now the tables are turned, and shes the one talking about you to the internet, and it pisses you off. perhaps now you can have some empathy for how she has felt for the past year.
-
Right on Casey!
While I’m not a Supporterz, I think both of those guys have gone too far.
-
Yes, Casey did it again, Casey scam the publisher.~
another point for Casey,
Bonus +2 for dumping those 2 guys.
-
Groucho Marx once wrote a letter to the owners of a gambling hall known as the “Friars Club” in hollywood who wanted him to join and do business with them; part of the note read:
“I refuse to belong to any club or organization that is willing to accept a person like me as a member.”
Although I think Groucho was partially joking, you Casey should take this concept and live by it for the rest of your life because any people who willingly approach you to do business are well… how can I say… very similar to the character Norman Bates from the film PSYCHO!
Cheers to you for not going forth with them!Viva La Casey Serin!
-
Good, HATERS Still Can Joke about Casey on this Blog,
this website is still own by Casey, our man.
no Casey, no fun,
You’re our entertainment here.,
yes..
-
Good for you, Casey! It’s time you stood up to these guys! The unethical business tactics of Mark “I-spell-at-an-eight-grade-level” V********* have turned me from a hater to a supporter!
-
Hey kid;
“So lets just forget about the whole thing and move on with our lives.”
It’s too bad that you hobbits don’t wear shoes, cuz the only way THAT’S gonna happen is when you click the heels of your ruby-red slippers 3 times.
“I am canceling all agreements I’ve ever had with you about my domain or the “settlement” [which was really done to get Marty off my back (I’ll settle with Marty myself)] or anything else you may be expecting from me. I’M OUT!”
Gee…that was so unexpected. I’m so surprised.
So…the Toilet Scrubber didn’t take you back, did she? Not for 20 grand, and prolly not for any amount of cash.
Told ya that that area’s a dead letter box ,kid…in business, you gotta learn to cut your losses…like she’s doing.
“You both know I don’t owe you anything. Any cost you Mark may have incurred was as a result of YOUR abuse of the legal system.”
Oh…now THAT was smart! Tell me buckaroo, do you play golf? What’s your favorite club?
No reason…just askin’
“I don’t want to make a big scene out of it.”
My-my…ain’t this a change from my favorite media-prostitute?
That’s what YOU want…but now it’s about what OTHERS want, you selfish little toad.
And I think they wants very much indeed!
Told ya, kid, you’re in the backseat of your own life now…and I think that you’re about to get tossed into the trunk or bungee-corded to the roof-rack.
See ya in the funny-papers, hobbit!
-
Wonderful, Casey. Do NOT change your mind again! Promise yourself and all others that you NEVER deal with those two guys again! OK?
-
Get a lawyer and quit talking to the fools. Get a lawyer and quit talking to the fools. Get a lawyer and quit talking to the fools. Get a lawyer and quit talking to the fools. Get a lawyer and quit talking to the fools. Get a lawyer and quit talking to the fools. Get a lawyer and quit talking to the fools.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND????????
-
I doubt that will happen Casey- Mark & Duane seem to be having too much fun with their 15-minutes of fame as evidenced by their last podcast. I can’t believe your wife was on that call standing by and letting these people rip into her husband- regardless of your mistakes this seems like a huge betrayal. It seems like your marriage is circling the drain and may not be salvaged at this point. I’m very sorry about this and recommend www.dailystrength.org as a great site to find emotional support anonymously.
-
@ 18. Sharky
“Oh…now THAT was smart! Tell me buckaroo, do you play golf? What’s your favorite club?
No reason…just askin’”
ROTFLMAO
@ Casey
On second thought, start printing out everything M*** has threatened you with on paper, including his post on EN. This will be good for future evidence if/when you decide to show up in court. I know FIRSTHAND that without evidence in a courtroom, you’re a cooked goose.
-
I have a question for you Casey.
The email (and blog post) from a few days ago stated that you were closing down the blog because you want to fix things between you and your wife. You also had the deal with LMP and Duane, which stated you HAD to close down/sell the blog.
After tonights podcast, it seems your w**e will not be taking you back. (Did you know she was listening to the podcast, and also commenting on EN? I got the general idea from things she was saying to Duane that she will NOT be taking you back, under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.)
Now, you are saying NO DEAL to LMP and Duane (Best thing you have done, by the way!).
So, does that mean you will keep the blog up and running?
I hope tomorrow goes better for you. I doubt they are going to go away quietly, unfortunately.
Truly, good luck Casey! I hope you keep blogging!
-
That “legal stick” will be beating you hard, Casey. Ooops! Next lawsuit, and I’m sure there will be more, consult with an attorney before signing a settlement agreement! Unlike, perhaps, a car sale, there is no “cooling off” period on a settlement, and it is legally binding. You’re an adult, and you have to deal with the consequences of your decisions. If you don’t, the judge will make you.
Stop being an idiot and face reality!
ASW: manbag
That LMP man bagged ya good!
-
Hey Kid;
“Man, this whole thing is so tough… and it’s lonely. I hope I don’t regret dumping all these thoughts in my email, after I wake up tomorrow. But for now it feels better. The blog has been sort of like therapy, in a way.
Thanks guys for listening.”
Awww, that’s okay, hobbit. I enjoy this stuff.
There’s a song I’m sending out for you tonight. It’s from waaaay back in the 70’s when we were actively looking to vaporize you and yours in a nuclear fireball.
(Nothing personal).The chorus goes:
“FEEEELINGZ! Whoa…whoa…whoa FEEEELINGZ!”
Hey…you plannin’ to get down to Oakland? The hall’s open tomorrow.
-
there is absolutely NO business between Duane and me or Mark and me. Our business stuff has been over a LOONG time ago.
Hahah! Yeah, you tell ‘em. That business agreement to sell the domain for $20k was soooo last week!
Ah, you kill me. This is much funnier than IAFF was last month!
-
Casey, you really aren’t showing the love of Jesus
-
Go, Casey!
Never give up!
Never surrender!Shred all contracts, ignore all notices, duck all process servers, avoid all courtrooms. Blog around the country on foot and by taxi, do sleepovers with supporterz, and see America. Heck, see the world!
Europe, here comes Casey!
-
hobbit, we all know your ideas on contract law, but in the real world to amend a contract requires both parties to come to an agreement. What you are doing is called ‘breach of contract’.
you dont have a wife anymore, get over it. duane isnt the reason you lost her, *you* are and deep down you know it.
-
Our business stuff has been over a LOONG time ago.
Did you or did you not, within the last week, sign an agreement settling Mark’s lawsuit?
-
Casey,
I hope that when/if you sell this blog that you will set aside 50% for your defense and 50% for your other half.
You are right, this situation is toxic, from the start and more so today. I think it is noble that you want to take care of your other half, but you have to take care of yourself too.
In the end, marriage is 50/50 and so should your blog sale or whatever you decide to do. Don’t let the others get in the way. Whatever you get, whether it’s link sales, supportz or a total sale of this blog, send 50% over to your other half. Don’t go through those guys. Don’t ask her first. Just send it. If she doesn’t take it, send it to her attorney (if she has one).
Hang in there…, k?
-
Selling the domain for cash was a good idea. All you need is one cash buyer per year + the ad income and you’re set. Just resell the domain over and over again! Heck, if you’re really smart, you can sell Mark’s website, sell the CaseyHaterz site, sell Nigel’s SLC site!
-
@ Sharky
You are one funny dude! LMAO! Very entertaining, and I know Casey is laughing as well.
@ Casey
How’s about some new ASW’s?
-
So how’s the job search coming Casey?
Didn’t you say you would have an updated spreadsheet for us by now?
Utah payment?
Taxes?
Federal case and FBI investigation?
-
“….You heard me on the last podcast though, I was actually cooperating with everybody because I was willing to look past all those issues…..”
Yes, we heard you and what we heard was a guy who was not happy at all. Your voice was flat and monotone, no passion at all. It was obvious that you were not happy with that “agrement/settlement”. That is why I am glad you now have come to your senses.
To Mark and Duane: Poshol na Hui!
-
Casey, can you please answer these questions (or just say that you don’t know or haven’t decided, or whatever)?
1) Is IAFF still scheduled to go down on 08/03?
2) Is the Foreclosure Code book now back on?
3) Has Marty threatened to sue you?
4) Are you still planning on getting a W2 job?…
I agree with you that getting away from D&M is probably in your best interest–which is why I didn’t understand why you consented to the settlement agreement last week. Have you ever honored a contract with anyone?
The lawsuit settlement with LMP is the NLL ladies thing all over again: you do something contrary to your interest on an impulse, and then abruptly pull out of it when you change your mind on a whim.
Don’t you understand that there are consequences for anything and everything that you do?
I’m not hating on you, I still just don’t understand how your brain works despite following this saga for nearly a year.
-
GOOD FOR YOU CASEY!!! YAHOOOO!!!!!! I WAS STARTING TO HATE YOU BUT THIS CRAP WAS NOT RIGHT!!!!!!
SIGNED,
SUPPORTER TO HATER BACK TO SUPPORTER -
Casey,
They’re not going to back off. Duane wants G***** . He made a bet with his buddies that he’s bag her in 3 months. It’s all an act to separate her from you. Mark is after the publicity for his sleeezy legal services. He wants his name all over the internet. That’s called advertising. Mark will continue to sue you and Duane will continue to go after G***** .
1) Hire a lawyer somehow to fight Mark. You have to do it or he’ll crush you. Get anybody.
2) Fight Duane, literally. He’s coveting your wife man. To restore her honor you’ll have to call him out. If it was my wife you god damn better believe I’d have that French fairy LeGate rolling on the ground in agony.
Dude, grow a sack. These guys are con men. They are after your wife and your notoriety. You better start fighting or you might as well just bend over, because they’ll make you their b**** .
-
Casey, I think you’re doing the right thing. I am not a supporterz, but I have to say that the behavior of many of these people around you (including some of the Haterz) makes me sick. Especially the ex-partnerz. I think they’ve pretty much all screwed you over or tried to, and the ones who try to interfere in your marriage make me especially ill.
You’re not alone. Some of us sympathize and are wishing you the best!
-
@ Casey
“Do you guys see how complicated and convoluted this whole mess is?”
Yes. But do you understand that you have no one to blame but yourself for this mess?
Why did you sign off on the settlement agreement to assign the rights to FC if your JV agreement clearly states that you may not do so (according to Marty)? Did you not understand that was a clause in the contract, or did you just not care?
-
You go Casey, show them whos the boss put them jerks in they place man, don’t take no s*** from the 2 biggest f*** ups this side of the red states. 1 is a country bumkin and 1 is a wannabe liar oopps I mean lawyer. Kick rocks B******
-
Just surfed over to myebid.com and it looks like you’re being spammed with bids. If you’re serious about selling, find a reputable domain-sale site, and one that includes pre-approved bidders. Even eBay has pre-approval configurations. Continue to sell advertising in the meantime (new banner ad, etc.) so you can earn some $ and give it to G.
@ Casey’s W*** G if you’re reading this…..
Whether or not you’re gonna take your man back, you need to realize Duane is trying to control and manipulate you. He’s a bad seed. Seriously, walk away from this dude.
-
Casey:
Sounds like the BLOG will keep going, we were worried that you would sell and get a real job (even if we were sort of kind of looking forward to a new Barista or Jamba Dude named Casey)…
-
They are after you wife, your blog, your book deal and your life, thank god you are getting them out of your life
God bless you Casey Serin
-
I did NOTHING to him after our business relationship didn’t work out.
Yes you did. When the business relationship you forged with him last week didn’t work out, you posted here to say you were breaching the agreement. Sounds like you invited an attack right there.
And I can’t believe the guy is spreading false rumors that I’m gonna leave the country or run away or some crap like that.
Why can’t you believe it? You’ve already skipped the country once. Why wouldn’t you do it again?
(just think: If you leave now you could be in Mexico by the morning!)
I have a right to try to sell the blog to the highest bidder and ONE THAT I’M COMFORTABLE in order to raise some money for myself and have money to give to my wife too.
No, you don’t have that right. You contracted it away when you signed an agreement with LossMit last week. And now you can’t get a do-over.
Sucks to be you!
-
Give the domain away. Seriously. Just give it to someone or a charity. Screw with them all KC. You don’t need it. It’s the millstone pulling you down I think.
-
havnt you ever noticed all the haterz sound like hicks?
-
please Casey don’t go away you are my life, I can’t live with out you!
-
If you had shut down the blog already, the whole thing would be over… well, at least most of the negative exposure would be over..
Shut it down and you will feel much better.
-
NO MORE BLOG
NO MORE BOOK
NO MORE BEING PUBLIC
… and NO MORE PAYING G’s DEBTS!
-
Just when it seems you can’t do anything more stupid you manage to yet again just walk away from yet more contracts. But of course, in Caseyworld contracts don’t mean a thing do they?
-
Casey,
Are you still planning to find a W2?
-
Casey, forget about everyone else. When are YOU going to listen to your PASTOR (or any true man of God) who can counsel you and help you to do what GOD would have you to do in this situation??? How are you NOW doing what’s RIGHT for “G” who you claim is so important to you?
PRIDE cometh before a FALL and me thinks your fall is coming soon. I believe that you will probably lose everything before you finally realize all that you gave up, chasing after fame and fortune. How very sad Casey:-( When will you finally realize that you have screwed so many folks??? But most of all, you have screwed your wife and your family and dishonored God!
Psalm 1 (New International Version)
1 Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.4 Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish. -
Casey,
In order of importance.
Talk to you wife. Tell her you are a moron. Trust me, she already knows that… But she should appreciate the gesture…
Forget about Mark and Duane. They are losers. Fight any BS lawsuits they throw at you.
Patch things-up with Marty asap. The book needs to go to market.
Keep the blog.
Get a JOB.
See ya
-
@Casey-
“Just to clarify…I AM STILL SHUTTING DOWN THE BLOG!!!
August 3rd is the END.”
Well, poop. That’s no fun. What happened to the rebel in ya, Casey? You used to do things on your terms, and now your caving in?
I am going to start a petition to keep the blog going. How many signatures would it take for you to keep the blog going, Casey?
-
I’m done with this toxic jungle
Then stop saying you’re going to do it and just do it. Walk away.
-
“Just edited my two big comments above with a few extra pieces of info to make it more unclear.”
And that just sums it all up.
-
Are you still having the podcast coming up?
-
Casey,
I really think you are missing an opportunity.
ALIEN ABDUCTIONIt answers so many questions and provides new and interesting story lines. X-files ran with it for several years, you should be able to keep interest with a similar time period.
-
I predict a fire…
-
So you are still considering selling the blog or shutting it down? Please, Casey, keep it: it’s the only asset you have. As for the book deal, it was a very good deal, for reasons posted on the foreclosurecode.com site. You should beg Marty not the break the deal with you and do what he says (he’s the one who wants out now). It was the blog sale and the lawsuit settlement that were bad deals, but the book was a great deal and was going to bring you some money.
Now that you can see that your efforts to please somebody in particular are fruitless, you should no longer feel that you can’t have a blog or a book. But if there is any chance that paying off debt will eventually help, pay from book sales and advertising revenues, and from your W-2 job, which you can have at the same time. Don’t just sell the blog to get a larger sum at once. Anybody who wants you to do that either can’t even understand that it’s not a good idea, or just wants to take your money and run.
As many people have pointed out, the FBI wouldn’t just warn you or call you. They would come and see you and possibly arrest you. Don’t retain a criminal lawyer if you are not actually charged with anything. But should it come to that, you would probably be represented for free, since you can’t afford to pay.
-
“Just edited my two big comments above with a few extra pieces of info to make it more unclear. ”
That’s probably the most honest thing you’ve ever written.
-
Guys, guys, relax…you’re ALL in the wrong.
-
IamFacingForeclosure.com is like crack and I am a IAFF fiend
-
KC to Judge McMasters: “No Deal!”
Casey, this settlement is one contract you can’t ignore. YOU agreed to it. PERIOD. LIVE WITH IT!
There’s no cooling off period with a settlement. You can’t renege on it.
Ignore the settlement at your own peril.
-
HA. Voiding contracts at will.
That’s like dropping blood in the water around a shark.
Good luck with the oncoming frenzy.
BB
-
sorry to hear about your troubles man
hope things turn out ok
-
Casey,
Do some yoga… Chill….
It does seem that stuff is somewhat crazy right now, but don’t rush things…
Put stuff in perspective and then decide on the next step. Stop being so damn impulsive.
If (or rather when) you end this. Do it on your terms. Not because of pressure from people like Mark and Duane. Pressure from the FBI would be understandable, but from bottom feeders !!!
Good night
-
Casey,
Here is your problem: You were invited to fight with the tarbaby and you agreed to it.You agreed to a Stipulated Agreement. That means you must fulfill that agreement. Failure to do so means you can be taken back to court to force you to live up to your end of the agreement, whether you like it or not. Failure to do so means you will be in contempt of court and can face fines or jail time.
You are stuck with the stipulated agreement unless you can go back to the judge and have the judge change the agreement. You cannot ‘adjust’ or ‘back out’ of this agreement without the judge’s permission. Failing to live up to the agreement means there will be real consequences this time around. Since LMP is not wasting any time going back to the court house, he feels that you are violating the agreement in some way. The easiest thing to do would be to find out what the perceived violation of the agreement is and correct it.
Translated: You walked into this one and are now being forced to live up to what you agreed to. You may not like it, but you are going to have to do it. If you are sued over this (and it appears to be coming), I expect the judge to be much less amiable and will start having some very pointed questions. The judge will expect you to answer the questions in short, clear answers that are not ambiguous.
If you want to consider me being a hater you can. All I am doing is trying to give you my unvarnished opinion of your problem, warts and all.
-
Casey,
Back in January, I told you that you should have two and only two priorities: save your marriage and stay out of prison. It was clear to pretty much everyone but you that the short sales were a lost cause and that it would be impossible to “pay back every single dirty penny.” Knowing what you do know (which was obvious to pretty much everyone but you), do you now agree that those should be your only two priorities from this point forward?
-
Casey,
Marty just threw you under the bus with that posting on the Foreclosure code website. He accused you of violating an NDA six ways from sideways. He is dumping any bad press he is getting at your feet and blaming you for it. Great for Marty, awful for you.
-
Wow man. Looks like you just can’t escape the drama.
At least you’re keeping the site.Good luck Casey.
One Man. One Year. $100,000 online. How’s he doing it?
http://www.oneyeargoal.com -
I’m glad he is telling his side of the story. It’s all coming to an end and its good to bring EVERYTHING to light.
…such as the way the deal collapsed thanks to multiple contractual violations on your part. I was genuinely surprised at this: I assumed it was just your violation of the NDA, but it seems to go far, far deeper than that.
I know I’ve asked this before, but do you genuinely not understand that a contractual arrangement is more serious and binding than a playground agreement? Going from your actions over the past 48 hours, it seems not - and yet this is just about the most basic business skill of them all.
What really baffles me is that you’ve seen time and time again what happens when you breach contract (you’ve even been sued!), yet you still keep doing it! Is it some mad compulsion inside of you? Do you genuinely believe that you’re so important and special that ordinary rules don’t apply to you? And do you despise your partners that much that in many cases you start breaching the contract when the ink is still drying on the paper?
For all my snark, I do feel genuinely sorry for you, Casey. Something has seriously arrested some aspect of your development, with the result that you’re still essentially a teenager trying to talk tough with the big boys. Predictably, it’s been an utterly calamitous disaster for you, but most people might have learned something by now. The really bewildering thing is that I’m not sure you have.
-
I can’t believe you would lose everything just when success was right around the corner. You were making money with your blog and were likely to make money with the book but somebody else made you shut down the blog, which you referred to as your “baby”, and lose advertising money. It looks like you lost, or are about to lose, the book money, too, and for the blog, instead of getting lots of money, you were thinking of selling it for 100k, sold it for 20k but that did not work out, and now you may sell it for next to nothing or lose it all the way, especially since you now want to sell just the domain and lose the content. The domain may not even sell for much, since some very similar domain names were available for relatively little money very recently (see the private emails from me). So you threw away your opportunities to succeed in business for the sake of somebody else who won’t even talk to you.
-
Casey, you’ve just broken a settlement agreement.
Did the Judge order you to do what the settlement agreement says?
Duane may have a case to sue you now, for backing down on the domain transfer.
You are so screwed.
-
So how many days was it between you making the agreement and breaking it? 6? Is that some kind of record for you?
-
One other suggestion: Litigation by internet is not the adult way to do this.
-
The straight forward question is this:
Did you do what was required of you in the Stipulated Agreement? If yes, then you can fight off a lawsuit. If no, then you have a real problem on your hands. -
From now on a lawyer will talk and act on behalf of Casey. Right, Casey?
-
No way in hell an FBI agent would contact a flight risk like you and tip there hand
-
After watching these events unfold for a while without commenting….
I now have to say:
Casey, all the so called “Supporters” saying what bad deals you were making, how you could get more money for the site, how terrible the two parties involved were, urging you to get away, etc….. Did more harm to you than good.
Listening to these “Supporters” will get you screwed…. and it looks like its already happened.
Just when things were slowly resolving themselves out, you get suckered by the sweet talks and praises and dug yourself your own grave.
Thanks to the “Supporters”, you are about the get seriously F*CKED in the coming days.
-
Will everyone stating that Casey is somehow “losing money” by not keeping the blog up respectfully shut up? Casey has made almost no money on this blog, it is a gigantic net loss, and there is very little chance that he would make money from book sales. Anyone who thinks this blog is a “good thing” is delusional. I don’t think there are any positive connotations of the word “toxic”.
Monica, I’m guessing you’re not married?
-
You don’t need a lawyer, Casey. You know as much about your life and contracts as any lawyer, and you’ll be taking a risk when you hire one that they’ll be honest and work in your best interest instead of shaking you down for money.
The blog is just beginning to make money, man.
Stick with you, you’ve almost won.
You’re the hero in this story, not Duane or any of those other parasites.Never give up!
Never surrender!Remember, don’t hire a lawyer.
Stick with the blog.
Avoid W-2 jobs, that’s a dead-end you can’t afford! -
It’s a shame the sale fell through. The domain is possibly worth more, but if you just sell it to a random buyer there is a good chance that they will just park it with PPC ads. Did you assign the ownership to LMP? It is good to see that you are keeping to your word of shutting down the blog. I think that all of the haterz will disappear once the site is gone. I don’t think that there is any way of mending your relationship until you leave the public eye.
-
There is going to be lots of noise over this…but I’m guessing rather little action.
-
I want to side with Casey, solely because I think that LMP and Duane are scumbags.
So is Casey, for that matter, but he’s our scumbag and we expect it from him. I would like to be on Casey’s side for this vignette, but I can’t. They’re really all the same.
He’s essentially admitted that the sale of the blog to Duane was a scam that LMP and Duane proposed to him as means to get rid of the publisher. The money he agreed to pay to LMP was a commission for the sale of the site to Duane, not some fee ordered by a judge.
According to his post, the three of them were trying to scam the publisher together.
Thick as thieves.
-
I think Casey realises that he will not every see a cent from the sale of iamfacingforeclosure.com, so he won’t sell it. He will keep on blogging, despite protestations to the contrary - he will try to spin it into some other kind of site, like “one man’s battle against the corrupt LAW” or “#1 auction site for Murses”.
-
Hey Casey,
That book publisher guy seems reasonable. Remember Casey, that if you breach a contract then the other party is going to be real upset and the gloves come off.
Can you see that this blog episode is similar to the 8 houses episode.
On your next venture think ahead and look after your won family and your own business interests first.
Don’t assume that other people care about you - you’re right to look at their actions. And some people actions you cannot explain - they are sico’s sometimes.
Loads o Money

The funniest explanation for supporting Casey so far, # 91. LostMittens:
“I want to side with Casey, solely because I think that LMP and Duane are scumbags. …..So is Casey, for that matter, but he’s our scumbag and we expect it from him…..”
Yes, the non-predictable Casey is ours!
-
It’s taken most of a year, but I’m finally a hater. You had the opportunity to at least fix things for your wife and you blew it. You deserve whatever you get. I hope it’s something bad.
-
LostMittens … you know better than to believe what Casey says. Everything is spin.
Think it through - why would Duane and Mark conspire to help Casey get out from the contract with M****? Casey can ignore that contract as easily as he has ignored the rest. Duane and Mark don’t get any benefit by defusing M****. M***** hasn’t sued anybody as far as I know, nor has threatened to sue anybody.
$20K is far more than the domain and blog combined are worth. The deal makes sense at face value - Duane spends $20K to help _G*****_ who is the one who needs help, (not Casey, who needs a big walloping from his H***** C*rp*rati*n former guarantor), Mark gets his out-of-pocket expenses back and Casey avoids one lawsuit.
The only person who believes that Duane and Mark are acting in Casey’s best interest is Casey himself. He could easily spin that up into a fantasy about the three of them scheming to throw M**** under the bus. That’s Casey.
Casey’s best interest is to be taken to a quiet sanitarium where he can do sweet deals with the other inmates during “TV Room Time”. But we’re not there yet. Until that time, Casey’s schemes have to be shut down. No more manipulating G*****, no more borrowing, Casey must get a job and learn to work for a living.
-
DUANE and LMP oh how I hate thee.
THere was a poll over at caseyhaterz.com and LMP is hated WAY WAY more than Caseyroo
somehow duane has most of them snowed under with his jovial act, but he has many many haterz there too.
I would recommend casey stick to once or twice a week major episodes to drag out the traffic. I feel like you laid a whole episode of the the Sopranos on me in 2 days.
keep it up! put a paypal legal defense fund link on your site you will have $20,000 in a week for sure because PEOPLE WANT TO SEE THAT CRUMMY LMP go down, maximum justice 4 him.

Wow, things are getting CRAZY around here.
1)Casey, get a lawyer,a job and a haircut.
2)Mark V., get a life. You need a hobby…
3)Dee-wayne Lefake, get out of Casey’s marriage or else…or else Im gonna spill the beans on your little “secret”. Remember Dee-Wayne, everyone has a past…and I know what you have done!!!!! Remember that night you and me went to the w**** house and you met your wife…

It’s pretty mean to throw G***** under the bus.
-
Casey, your delusions never cease to entertain me. You act like you can just snap your fingers and the agreement you signed with Mark is null and void. You must be doing this stuff intentionally to create drama. That or you’re a complete sociopath. Have you EVER fulfilled a contract?
By signing your agreement with Mark last week you’ve given him a solid court case. And he doesn’t hesitate to use the “legal stick”.
-
I can’t believe you’re throwing the towel in so easily after all this.
So disappointed.
-
HA HA HA Lost Mitt Weasel gets a slap in his smarmy face .
Go tell it to the judge you f****** jerkoff .
-
Duane and Mark are lovers. They discuss how they will screw casey while they “screw” each other. Those sad, sad, sick men………
-
Casey, here’s some advice and I hope you will at least consider it:
Do not talk to Mark. Do not call him. Do not email him. Do not have dinner with him. And, by god, don’t ask him for advice. Regardless of what he says, *none* of what he is doing is helping you in any shape or form. The guy is creepy and his obsession with you is bordering on stalking.
Do hire a real lawyer. This can be costly, but the alternative could be much, much worse. Once you have a real lawyer Mark will think twice about continuing his legal action. He’s a collector and is good at getting money out of broke saps who can’t even afford legal represantation. You’ve been playing right into his hands. Don’t keep making the same mistake. You know what happens to bullies when they meet their match? They back down. As long as you are a weak, soft target he will continue to “go for your throat”.
The stuff with Marty is another huge mess you’ve created. He *will* publish your book with you or without you. If you ignoring Marty is your way of trying to stop the book from being published, it was the worst way to accomplish that. I don’t know exactly what’s going on between you and Marty. Maybe you’re having second thoughts about forking over the $4000-5000 to him. Either way, it sounds like the book will get published, and your only choice is whether it gets published with you or without you.
Your past transgressions aside, I really do hope you pull through your current mess.
-
HERE IS THE SUNDAY NIGHT HATECAST(3 hours!)
>G***** supposedly IM’ing or emailing Duane what she thinks.
>Duane blows up and goes off at very very end where he gets peppered with questions he refuses to answer in specific detail to make the haterz happy. Angry outburst about how honest he is makes people think he is honest(weird phenom, you gotta listen).
-
Go back to school. You write like an eighth grade student and reason like someone half that age.
-
Casey:
If you indeed are facing criminal prosecution, remember your Miranda rights - they are as follows:
You have the right to remain silent
Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law
You have the right to an attorney
If you can not afford an attorney, one will be appointed to youCasey - why spend the $$ when you can have a court appointed attorney.
Wait until the FBI wants to talk. Ask them to read you your miranda rights. Then say NOTHING. (I know that will be hard… but do it!) If you say anything, repeat the following: “I want my court appointed defense attorney.”
Print this message. Put it in your wallet. Carry it with you at all times.
Why spend your time looking for an attorney when it can be provided to you at no cost?
-
Hey, Casey:
It’s Monday. If you hadn’t pulled out of the deal, you’d have $20,000 by now.
Instead you’ve made the prospect of doing a deal so toxic that you won’t get squat.
How’s that working out for you?
-
You need to keep this macabre man away from your wife, he is taking advantage of the fact she is pissed with with to attempt to form some sort of emotional bond…this can only be bad..you need to get that ball out of play fast
-
I hope people see that I’m being very reasonable here… there is absolutely NO business between Duane and me or Mark and me. Our business stuff has been over a LOONG time ago.
THEN WHY DO YOU CONTINUE TO SIGN AGREEMENTS WITHOUT HAVING A LAWYER LOOK AT IT!!! THIS IS WHAT FRUSTRATES ME!!! STOP SIGNING CRAP AND YOU WON’T HAVE THESE PROBLEMS!!
-
Why spend your time looking for an attorney when it can be provided to you at no cost?
Because Casey needs a good one to help sift through this gargantuan mess. And he needs to be proactive about this - waiting for the court to appoint someone is worse than useless.
The fact is that Casey’s chickens are now coming home to roost. Ever since his notorious “NO DEAL!” post back in January, he’s shown a complete inability to understand why written contracts are more important than vague promises. And despite a gazillion and one posts trying to explain this to him, as well as an actual court appearance last week, he STILL doesn’t seem to get it.
Which is why he’s heading for a whole world of legal pain, and needs to appoint a lawyer right now to pore over every piece of paper he’s signed over the last year. And that lawyer has to be blunt about the damage he’s done. And Casey is somehow going to have to bite his lip and not call the lawyer a “hater” - because this person is just about the only chance he’s got to avoid a hefty fine or jail sentence.
-
“show me some human courtesy”
That’s funny. Do you mean human courtesy, like running up hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt, or human courtesy, like abandoning your wife on an hour’s notice, or human courtesy, like you’ve shown anyone else that you’ve burnt?
-
Maybe Casey should sell because along with the other “casey sites” have nothing to do with the housing market and everything to do with his personal drama.
The problem I see is this IAFF has nowhere to go except to continue entertaining those already following the story. I really can’t see anybody just tuned being that interested. And the book deal? Who outside of those now following the story would be interested in buying this book? And why would anyone following the story want to pay for it when they already know what’s going on?
My advice would be to sell the blog to the highest bidder and to make sure that Casey controls the money.
Get LossPro and Duane out of the picture as soon as possible.
And Marty?
If he’s he’s foolish enough to put out a book or tapes fine. Let him. It’s only going be sold over the internet and if his self-publishing company recoups its’ expenses and makes a few bucks great because that’s the best that’s going to happen.
The main thing right for Casey now is to get as much as he can for this webpage while it is still hot.
He can always setup another site at another time and the crowd is guaranteed to follow.
-
When you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas…
-
You screw up alot but even your worst detractors understand that you don’t act out of malice. People have been hurt but not because you intended it. You either have an illness or syndrome.
Mark and Duane’s actions have demonstrated they knowingly took advantage of someone under duress and they did so in the cruelest possible way. Shame on them.
-
casey, mark is jealous of the fame and you’ve recieved from your blog. he’s just a pissed off old man who dropped out of law school and blames the world for his own failures. mark has no life and he’s probably not even married. c’mon, what kind of wife would let her husband do what he’s doing. mark is definitely using the legal system to push you around, dont put up with it. get a lawyer, find someone who will do it pro-bono. put together all the bs that mark has said to you and file a lawsuit against that piece of s*** .
mark,
you are a b**** . good one there buddy, pick a fight with a 24 year old who wont defend himself. why dont you display your mad litigation skills by sueing someone with the means to fight back? you’re just a mad-old-punk who’s never made it, jealous of casey and would trade shoes with casey in a heart beat-you know it.
-
Casey,
1. Get a lawyer immediately
2. Download copies of all of the TalkCasts where Duane and Mark were involved. (including those done by Haterz and Duane’s from last week. There is solid evidence in at least a couple of them to get both Mark and Duane into enough hot water legally that they may not have time to mess with you.)
3. Print out copies of any comments/posts that you know were done by Duane or Mark on this site and others.
4. Read some of the comments from the last few days from some of the other users. Specifically on the “Bunch of Crazy Crap” post. There was at least one there that offered some solid ideas.I don’t support what you’ve done in the past and in fact it pisses me off what you’ve done, but Mark and Duane really did step over the line in more ways than one. Best o’ luck kid!
-
Hey Casey -
The quickest way to make these problems go away is to just shut down the blog. Now. Why wait? Just shut the thing down…
I’m sure Mark and Duana will be crying foul and complaining about it why they try to find some way to get the domain.
But, you know what? A month after shutting it down, that domain will be WORTHLESS, and even those two freaks may give up.
Shut it down and find something else to do with your time.
Besides, all this M&D talk is boring as s*** .
-
Real publishers PAY THE AUTHOR. AUTHORS do NOT PAY to get their books published.
Casey, if you want to self publish your book, you can self publish for much LESS than FOUR THOUSAND dollars.
That cost is ridiculous.
An average fiction print run is 5, 000 books. Most books DO sell more than 100 copies, unlike Marty’s written statement.
You need to Do YOUR HOMEWORK. Go to the Writer Beware website.
Maybe you can get your 1000 dollars back.
I doubt it.
-
Casey,
I am very, very happy for you that you have given those third rate con artists, the two stooges mark and duane the boot.
I listened to some of your past podcasts and they are obsessed with you and your life in a very weird way. The threats that mark made to you right before you signed your agreement should be clear evidence that you did not willingly and freely enter into any agreements with them.
I think we should get some mark and duane haterz sites up so we can follow their scamming and con man activities for the rest of their lives! Their darkness should be continually brought to the light. They are hilarious boobs.
You, Casey, while you have made mistakes- we all recognize you are young and sincere and trying to do the right thing. You will eventually succeed Casey. Don’t give up! Keep your relationship with God! Consult with a good lawyer if you can. Don’t Don’t Don’t Don’t Don’t speak with Mark or Duane in any manner. Don’t pick up the phone.
Many blessings to you,
Sedonan
-
And one more thing…bring the tape of mark threatening you with physical violence to the police and file charges against him…if you don’t, many of us have the podcast downloaded and may do it ourselves if markie boy continues to try to extort money from you….
at the very least the tapes will get you a restraining order against markie. -
Casey, it took a while but you are finally seeing things clearly. Those two are not in your corner. I doubt they ever were from the start.
I don’t buy it when a stranger says they want to help someone out of kindness. They went into the deals looking to make some money. That is understandable. That is normal. What isn’t normal is how they reacted when their deals broke down.
These two “adults” are the most vindictive, spiteful, hateful, stalkers I’ve ever read about. They have been trash talking about you all over the internet for months. They are involved in your personal life, egging your wife and family members on. Turning them against you! Even making up BS lawsuits to add stress to your life.
You are better off shutting the blog down and making $0, than to be involved with those two any longer.
If you really are in trouble with the FBI that really sucks. You made mistakes, but I don’t think you are a criminal.
You really need to cut as much drama out of your life as you can. You are going to end up with an ulcer or a heart attack at 24 if this keeps up.
Mark and Duane, if you have any compassion at all you will walk away and leave Casey alone. He is in enough deep s*** as it is. Piling on now and making it worse is just pure evil.
-
Dear Mr. Serin:
I do agree with those who say that some of these men want to bury you and some want to take your wife. There are obviously reasons for both. Your first priority should be your wife. As stated in #58, you need to call your wife NOW and tell her what an idiot you have been. Resolve to make things right with her, it seems like you may be trying to do just that by selling the domain name. Seek council of people that ACTUALLY WANT TO HELP YOU. This doesn’t mean idiots like Mocha with the whole “Yo, yo Casey ma Boy! I’z a suppotta!”. I really doubt that people like that will do much for you. I know, for a fact, that over the last year that you have had legit offers to help get you on track, but it seems as though you only seem to seek out the slimeballs. One possible reason is that these people tell you what you want to hear and the people with the sincere offers don’t paint such an exciting picture. You can contact me any time and I will give it to you straight.

Ok, now I feel like I need a book because this is getting too hard to follow.
Now that we have Marty’s contract does anyone understand what Mittens’ cause was for a TRO?
What is going on with the Haterz site? Are they really imploding? It did seem like EN was abandoned and people went to the board. EN’s traffic died, then Rob ‘Dawg’ accused someone of insulting his daughter and now he has three Casey top posts a day.
Anyway, Casey this site is valuable not because it is about foreclosure- it is valuable is because you are an interesting character. Sell the site for whatever you can and become a tech blogger. Or blog from your cube.
It wont matter what subject you choose. In a couple of months you will be back to a couple of grand in sweet semi-passive income in addition to your W2, even if you just did movie reviews or talked about juice bars.
Oh yeah, and you could easily have more than one talkcast a week. TalkShoe pays for that too.
-
Right on, Casey. Get rid of these slugs, who only are greedily trying to capitalize on your fame. They are only looking at the 1 million audience Nigel says you have, and dreaming of monetizing that. Even at 1-cent for each set of eyeballs, that’s $10,000, and a life of cutting coupons. The takeover tactics they are using of trying to undermine your marriage and get at you through G* are truly outrageous. Some of us know you are doing the right thing, so keep fighting Casey, and butt out bastards.
-
I told you to stand firm and fight. There will always be those who will gladly screw you if you bend over. Screw them first. You sold the blog for peanuts, and agreed to pay the legal costs of someone using the courts to bully and intimidate you.
The only good thing about it was, you’re such a poor businessman, a W2 job is really your only hope. All business is negotiation, and giving a way the store like you did is the hallmark of a horible negotiatior.
I’m sorry if you don’t like what I’m going to say- you can delete it. Your wife’s duty is to stand by you and support you for better or for worse. All her emotional blackmail is not a good sign. What about YOUR happiness? Giving her money to buy her loyalty is the worst thing you can do- it commercialises what should be an emotional relationship. You will hate me now, but I promise in 5 years you will realise she was not the one for you.
-
Forget a defense attorney for now. GET A LITIGATION ATTORNEY. I’m assuming you don’t have one, or else you he/she would have told you to clam up about it on here. Go into more debt if you have to, just get a lawyer for the LMP case.
Remember what happened last time you went to court without a lawyer? You ended up signing some settlement that totally screwed you. I swear to god, if you show up to court on Friday without a lawyer, I will fly out there and straighten your a** out, Alec Baldwin style.
-
Even haterz sites like EN are using pictures of the Romans dragging Christ from the garden of Gethsemene to describe this horrible situation. Don’t go quietly, Casey.
-
ok, i just listened to the hatercast w/ duane and mark. definitely clears up some missing perspective, at least with duane. i won’t be posting anymore, because its too easy to react on one person’s perspective. Let’s see where this is at after August 3rd.
-
Casey - 2 words for you
GROW UP

Breaking News!
Here’s a thought for all of you…This is being scripted by all three of these guys!
The blog was tanking, people leaving every day, no one interested in Foreclose is here, and the Entertainment followers that we ALL are where getting bored.
Casey, Mark, Duane, Marty, and any of the other involved yahoo’s needed to do something. Drive up interested, sell it to some idiot for as much as possible, then split profits…hummmmmm…….and laugh as they all where in on it.
SO…..look at the mess we all wanted to see, and how everyone is eating it up!
Casey and these guys are problem writing todays blog as we speak.
-
I don’t know how everyone can be on Casey’s side. Casey I am sorry about your marriage. However please let this be a learning lesson. Stop doing shady stuff. Go get an attorney and don’t sign it unless your attorney says it is ok.
-
at this point it’s very important that you have a real, legitimate attorney dedicated to your situation. but i suspect you do not. and for this you will pay substantially. now if you’ll pardon me, i’m getting ready for my looser w2 job.
-
1. I thought LMP now owned this domain through a settlement the two of you reached that was approved by the judge? If so, he has every right to take you to civil court over this. You don’t get to just walk away from agreements blessed by a judge.
2. You want money for a defense attorney - what happened to paying off debt? Our society has public defenders for a reason. You don’t have a job: you can’t afford a defense attorney, or a cell phone, or a sweet car, or a computer. People work for wages so they can have these things.
You really are screwed. You’ll be spending a lot of time in court in the coming months. You did it to yourself, so quit complaining and face the music.

Many people want to see Mark go down. You have the power, he has a silly action. Get the PAYPAL link up NOW!

Casey,
While these guys that you made agreements with are like vultures that came to the scent of your final (financial) last gasp, you’ve got to own up to agreements that you make with people. You don’t have any houses left, you don’t have any money left, you may not even have your marriage any more. It would be nice if you still had your integrity, because that is the one thing someone else can’t take from you. You can, of course, give it away yourself by making promises and signing contracts and then not following through on your commitments. Come on, Casey, it’s the one thing you could try to salvage and your giving it away again.
These guys are businessmen, and they are misrepresenting their motiviations to sound more altruistic than they really are. (Are they really doing this for your wife’s benefit? Then they could be even more helpful by offering more money.) No, they’re offering you money because they believe they can make more than $20k with your web site, probably much more considering the risk that they’re taking. That doesn’t make it a bad alternative for you, though. If they can create more value with the web site than you can, then more power to them!
What is the value of the website and domain after you quit? Very little. People are here to read your stories and comment on them. Very few people might be here to learn, and those people soon learn that this is an entertainment web site and not an educational web site. And when the entertainment leaves, there won’t be any reason to come here anymore. No more news stories will be written about you to draw people to this site, and no new links will be generated without some very creative work by the new owners.
$20k is not bad, and this sounds like $20k guaranteed. The longer you wait, and as your exit date nears, the value is only going to fall. I can see you crawling back to them in a month, begging them to take your site for $5k. And they might say no.
Do the right thing. Honor your commitment. Take the money and find closure.
Your alternative is to lose the $20k offer, further ruin your relationship with your wife, lose whatever integrity you have left, and run this web site into the ground worthless.

Hi All™ I’m not quit ethe early riser™ today, but I did watch a program about running™. I have been diligently posting som delicious prose here, but it never seems to make it past the network censors™. That’s really to™ bad, because my comments from Austrailia and the international date line were among my best.
Oh well. I’m not pissed any more. I figure that if these three knuckleheads want to intervene in my private life I can’t stop them can I? It has been very hard for me and “Those of whom we cannot speak”™, but I feel that this is a blessing™ in disguise.
Perhaps if the network censors™ lighten up a bit and get their panties out of a wad I can tell you more. All I can say for now is how crazy™ it has been and that my BlueBall™ has a slow leak again…
Additional comments depend on the network censors. Speak up if you think they’ve (he) been to™ harsh on me.

Look! There it goes…
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!

Casey,
Put up that TIP JAR. A lot of people want you to lawyer up and are willing to help!
Also, did you read my last post? I am still wondering if you signed up for GURU DUANE and his REI.TV schtick in the past and is that how you met him?? Here is my last post.
By the way, was a fence sitter, then a haterz, back to a fence sitter and am now a supporter. Those two are really trying to screw the pooch.
“Hi Casey,
When I google Duane L***** I find he is the president of something called REI.TV. When I go to that website, it is a “GURU” site that charges $39.95 a month to teach you how to short sale etc…
So, Duane L***** is really a GURU, just like all the other GURU’S you have tried to follow. Only this one is getting really deep into your pants. Costing you a lot more than $39.95 a month!
How did you meet Duane L***** ?? Did you contact his REI.TV to find out how to short sale your foreclosures? Did you sign up for his program?? His $39.95 a month program???
Wow, what a scammer he is. Some big help. He’ll line his pockets with your hard work.
And people are rallying around him and saying what a good guy he is… I call BS. He’s a GURU just like the rest of them. “
-
I can’t get over the fact that you think you can just wave a magic stick and get out of this. I guess we’ll see how well those “mad skillz” are working when you get hauled back in to court.
Explain this statement
“If I sell this domain to you Duane I will have to deal with you and Mark for a year”
Why would you be dealing with Duane and LossMit for the next year? Aside from receiving 50% revenue, neither have asked you be be involved in the future of this website. In fact, it’s my impression that neither or them WANT you to be involved.
-
Changing your mind is not a valid reason to break a contract. If you have a valid contract with these folks (I mean something signed, whether you like its terms now or not), then you’d better respect it.
Legally they have every right to come after you to get what you promised them. If they can’t, they will go after you for the value of what was promised. Which I believe means that they can even say although they wanted to buy the web site from you for $20k, they anticipated making $100k in profits, and you prevented that by unlawfully breaking the agreement. So they’ll come after you for $100k or whatever. Oh, you don’t have that much? Well, they’ll attach your paychecks (when you get a job) until they get their money.
Get some legal advice, and honor your commitments.

Do you know the quickest way to spot an idiot? He is the one arguing with other idiots!

It’s completely irrelevant whether you feel you’re on the up and up and the people you signed a contract with aren’t. The law is the law, and if you signed, you have to comply. That’s how people who get lousy credit card deals get screwed. That’s how people who get subprime loans get screwed. That’s how people who enter into bad marriages get screwed. You signed, you are liable. Sorry to be such a sour apple, but that’s the reality of the business world. It’s not their responsibility to make sure you get a good deal. It’s your responsibility to yourself to make sure you aren’t being screwed. It’s really too late after you’ve signed. Unlike your word, which seems to change at a moment’s notice, a handwritten contract binds you to fulfill your obligations whether they are “fair” or not. If you don’t, you go to jail. I doubt they’ll bother fining you since you don’t have any money. The judge isn’t going to care what’s “fair” or what’s the moral high road. They aren’t there to be your pastor or to be your advocate. That’s up to your lawyer. They are there to make sure the laws are executed to the letter, regardless of what you consider to be fair, moral, or friendly. If there is anything wrong with how you approach things it’s this unbelievable naivetee and gullibility you have that others will take your best interests at heart, even when they are total strangers. Learn to trust yourself, but keep in mind that the law is binding, and forget about what everyone else says. These are difficult lessons to learn, and I feel sorry for you doing it in public.
What have you done to take care of yourself? Have you figured out what your worst case scenario is for pulling the plug on your contract? What the best case scenario is? How much risk is involved and what the pros/cons are to your decision? Have you thought things through? If you wait until you land in court, it’s far too late. Your choices will be completely irrelevant at that point.
P.S. If you land in jail, you can forget about a W-2 job. The only people who will hire you are people who hire ex-cons. That’s by far your worst case scenario, I think, but it’s really up to you to decide.
-
Duane and Mark come off as insane. Why do they care so much? Why are they so involved? Don’t they have businesses and families of their own?
This proves the Internet can put you in touch with some dangerous, delusional people. Be careful Casey.
-
The Early Riser Challenge!
-
Casey, you are even dumber than I thought.
Why on earth you choose to air your dirty laundry in public is beyond me.
You keep choosing the option that will bring you more trouble in the future - in this case, giving Mark and Duane even more ammo to shut you down.
Considering your past behavior, this is not unexpected.
You MUST a) get a real lawyer, b) get a real marriage counselor, and c) a real psychiatrist.
-
Normal law abiding people don’t have these problems.
-
Casey were you in Miami Beach last night?
-
Casey,
Unfortunately you are well past the “go away and leave me alone” stage with these guys. The reason the legal system is set up this way is because of people like you.
I see alot of pain in your future.
-
Hi Casey,
I am supporting but listened to the Hater cast. Have you been criminally charged yet? (Yes or No)?
-
Casey,
I am actually surprised I am writing this. It is more out of a sense of “fair play” than anything else.
I do not know you personally, we will probally never meet, but from what you have written I do NOT agree with how you do business or treat your family and frankly do not like you much as a person.
That being said, I do believe that you are in the process of being steamrolled by some very “clever” people.
Some advice:
Your blog: Your blog is only your thoughts and other peoples interaction with those thoughts. If you pull the content to another new site owned by another entity/someone else and leave a blank site with this domain it has a very quick declining value.
Find a person with an exisiting blog who would like to monotize it/start a new domain w/ different ownership. post your new thoughts there. A site with ownership out of Nevada or Deleware would be best as they are very “legal” freindly states esp. to corps. Also, if you can pull off “pro bono” representation (see below) this will increase the costs of the other parties significantly.
Book: Let the book deal go..who cares..book will not exactly be a best seller.
Domain: Follow through on the deal for $20k if it is still on the table. Get everything in writing. Without seeing the terms of the agreement you signed it is hard to comment on this but I would feel there should be a way to keep those funds in escrow until you can renegotiate some of the funds to your legal defense. On a personal note, you should let G have the $20k after all the pain you have caused that poor lady.
Legal counsel: You are in CA, the land of the “publicity w**** ” lol. If Kato can get a lawyer pro bono to work his case perhaps you can too. I do believe if you manage to procure legal representation pro bono most of the civil issues go away due to cost vs. return. Also, by following the above, you honor the contracts as I know them.
G***** : If you ever have a chance you need to get her off the net and away from the guys involved in these deals. hands and knees begging is required here. Personally, I think she is better off without you, just my opinion.
FBI: Who knows, if true you’re screwed.
From now on you should refrain from any agreements, contracts, etc. You are obviously lost when it comes to business and really should get a W-2 job and live the rest of your life in relative obscurity.
Just my opinion
-
The two old biddies have been sticking their noses into Casey’s business from the get-go. They presented themselves as pro bono help, were turned down and refuse to go away. They are attention w***** sucking every last drop out of their pushy involvement. Their reputations are in the gutter because of their own actions. They look so much worse than the Snowflake.
-
“I talked with him and he just wants his HARD expenses covered. He is willing to walk away from the whole thing, forget the book, absorb the lost time and energy and just be done with the whole thing.
I wish every would be willing to do the same. ”
ROFLMAO! Like, the banks and your lenders, for instance? Yeah, wouldn’t it be suite if they just were willing to absorb their loosses, too?
ROFLMAO at you, once again.
-
Shouldn’t we make it a common practice - think first and then act. Just teasing. Really good move KC. Some posts have mentioned restraining order against LMP dude; I believe one is the must to have. His moral and unbalanced character exposed through this blog has buried his business forever. Time to look for a W2 job? I guess just changing the name wouldn’t work - there always will be somebody watching. So, unless of course you are willing to keep covering his litigation expenses, I’m being worried for your life. You see, if you combine explosive character with damages this dude made to himself (blaming you as a medium) you may get something ugly. Just imagine if the fella who played the FBI prank doesn’t settle the matter with LMP and leak the info that LMP was involved (or knew about it and used it as a leverage in negotiations with you) it would almost certainly mean a jail time (with a bunch of charges like conspiracy to commit fraud, fraud itself, imposture as a fed agent and etc.). So, KC, be careful and really try to get the restraining order.
-
What a bunch of nonsense. Here’s what I do know:
1) Casey conned his way into a bunch of property he could not afford, ended up in foreclosure and started this blog.
2) Casey’s wife dumped him because he is a complete mess and treated her badly.Everything else is either a bunch of fiction or is being filtered through our very poor, possibly insane author until it is unrecognizable as fact. Then again, he might be crazy like a fox because the traffic is letting him sell advertising.
There is no blog sale.
There is no book publisher and there will be no book unless Casey pays to get it published (i.e. vanity publishing).
There was no settlement with these various parties because there was nothing to settle. It is quite likely that these various other parties are invented characters or participants in Casey’s fiction.
The FBI is not on Casey’s tail.
etc. etc. etc.
-
Casey to Mark and Duane and Marty: NO DEAL!
Casey–you are brilliant. More than 400 comments on your last thread, for a story that has long since been told, and now is reduced to whining. What’s next? Will you really eat a bug? Will you self-immolate? Jump in front of a train, have a leg amputated, and continue blogging?
The mind reels
-
The whole deal seemed messed up from the beginning.
But I had a feeling you had a change of heart with LMP and Duane since you saw how many people are interested in your story at the Capitol Garage! Cha-ching!!
You have a chance to market yourself in public, selling books, and getting your face out there along with your story. I told Duane and LMP that you could do it, and that there is an opportunity. You can sell 5 or 10 or maybe 20 books each time you make a public appearance - who knows if it will work - but you are the type of guy who will try (we all know that!).
Your main concern is the FBI investigation which will require money to protect yourself. I can see why you had a change of heart for only selling for $20K if you can get more. Sell the domain…save some for defense, use a few thou for G***** ’s bills to keep your word!
I wish you luck, Casey. I don’t agree with everything you do, but I do agree that you have allow yourself a fighting chance in court - which takes money!!
Good luck!
Mike
-
OK, it is just time to admit that this whole thing is fake internet soap opera plot lines meant to keep people coming back and clicking through your site…
-
Casey, let me guess here.
When your w*** realized that the money you get from selling your blog and paying your legal defense would only end up paying about 1/2rd of her debts she told you that was unacceptable.
And THATS THE REAL REASON you decided to go find other offers for your website.
8 housing contracts you couldn’t live up to (foreclosures)
3 contracts with people you couldn’t live up toYOU DESERVE TO GO TO JAIL!!
-
KC–
Maybe you should check out this site about Bay Area real estate (from www.sfgate.com) if you are really interested in the biz… www.SocketSite.com
-
Don’t listen to these people, who state get a good attorney right now. You do not need a attorney at least for now.
When you file for bankruptcy (and you will) you will need the attorney then. Let these chuckleheads sue you and get judgments and then include/wipeout the judgments in your bankruptcy.
For now, completely ignore them and most importantly, do not let them intimidate you!
-
Casey:
Please cap yourself. Quickly, cleanly, and quietly. No one wants you sullying this planet anymore and wasting the resources of our banking system.
If you don’t, I will take you to court.
-
I think both Duane and Mark have become enamored with having an audience(the haterz). Much of what they’re doing lately is just to cater to the audience. They don’t have your interests or even their own best interests in minds. They’re caught up in being celebrities of the haterz sites.
Why else would Duane act like a drama-queen on Saturday over a delay of a few hours? Then these guys get on the talkcasts and talk a bunch of junk about you? It makes no sense it they sincerely were trying to work a deal.
If I was in the middle of a deal and the other party did something like that, they could FOAD.
Not knowing all the details, I’m not sure what you should do. But I would stop communicating with Mark and Duane in the least. Just cut them off.
Try to unwind the deal with Marty best you can. At this point he’d probably walk away if it can be done with minimal loss.
I would sell the url as soon as possible. I think you could do much better than what Duane was offering. Forget about revenue shares or anything but a straight up sale. Just the url. No content, continuing contributions, etc.
I think these guys have you worked up over the FBI. I wouldn’t worry too much about it. I really can’t see any charges coming out of it. More likely they’re just checking things out because so many people have reported you.
I think it’s a bad move to pay off any credit cards at this point. They’ve surely all gone into charge-off status. The damage is already done to your credit. Paid in full or settled for less, it’s not going to help your credit one bit at this point. Bankruptcy is inevitable so you might as well work in that direction. Your credit will improve faster with a bk than with settlements and debt counseling. I’ve seen people hit the 700s just 3 years after a BK7. Most of the damage is already done to your credit and it’s past unwinding.
Bankruptcy would be the last suggestion if at all that I’d ever offer out. But in your case, with the debt load and all these other issues, it truly is your best choice.
Forget these guys and the haterz drama. Focus on a steady income and devote your efforts to ending this mess.
-
In regards to Marty, after reading his claims, I think you should just blow him off too.
Let the guy sue you if he wants. It will end up costing him more than what it’s worth. His claims are flimsy anyway.
It really doesn’t seem like he’s worked in your best interest. Rather it seems like he was trying to profit from you without any regard to you personally.
Cut him off and sell the blog. Trust me, a few years of W-2 job and living a quiet non-public life will seem like a vacation to you after all of this.
-
HeyKid:
And how’s our early risin’ hobbit this morning?
On your way to Oakland? (ha-ha-ha…ole Sharky will have his little jokes!).
Look, buckaroo,I wanted to highlight and underline what FromTheEdge said earlier about your supporterz,whomIshall hereafter refer to as “dildoz”.
Remember all those “loy-yurz” who assured you that LMP had no case at all, and not only would it be thrown out, but thatLMP would prolly be horse-whipped in the courthouse parking lot?
Those dildoz were wrong,weren’t they? You went in there alone,and reality came up and tickled your tummy,didn’t it?
Scared you straight…for what? 48 hours?
You and LMP cut a deal, and LMP made a deal with Duane to put 20k in Toilet Scrubber’s pocketbook.
And then the dildoz grabbed those handlebars sticking out of your head and drove THAT deal into a brickwall.
Oh yeah, kid,your rusty and dented little domain is worth WAAAAY more than 20 grand, huh?
Hey,sucka…which one of these “double-wide dildoz” was putting up MORE than 20k? Where was the money,dummy?
You walked away…you went to lunch…for the benefit of a bunch of loserz who would rather keep Toilet Scrubber in debt than let her take Duane’s money.
And BTW, I thought you said you had ALREADY spoken to a Defense Attorney…what’s with looking for one today?
-
Hey Casey,
I get the feeling that this is the endgame.
One of these dayZ, IAFF will be gone.
What are all the lurkers, haters, trainwreck watcher’s going to do for some free entertainment?
I have to say that you really did it your way. All the free and good advice given to you over the last 10 months was completely ignored. People warned you about Divorce and all the other things that are now coming home to roost.
Hey, but at least you did it your way.
Ever hear the song by Johnny Rotten, “I did it Myway”
Download it and listen to it as all the sharks and bottom feeders circle waiting for the Kill.
Anyway I wish you well and thanks for all the EntertainmentZ
for the last 10 months. -
I don’t suppose it makes any difference to you that you can’t legally sell the domain without Mark’s permission, right?
You don’t get to just cut ties with someone you’ve entered into a court settlement with, you know that, right? You know that if you sell the domain, Mark has the legal right that YOU gave him to just annul the sale?
Mark’s character aside, “He’s a mean ol’ poopy pants!!! isn’t going to hold up in court as a reason why you’re not honoring the settlement.
Stop being a child.
-
“Man, this whole thing is so tough… and it’s lonely. I hope I don’t regret dumping all these thoughts here, after I wake up tomorrow. But for now it feels better. The blog has been sort of like therapy, in a way.”
Casey, get thee to a real therapist! It will help you in more ways than using this blog as a cathartic way to eject all your mental anguish onto the web. But more importantly, get thee to a lawyer. You are going to have a long drawn out battle that won’t be solved by simply saying “finished” or “I’m out.” Your blog and notoriety is worth money to folks. Mismanaged, it will cause damage to you and your family as you are seeing. Managed well, there is a lot of potential. But you need to have your head on straight before you go attacking any future business deals.
Get some legal counsel and focus on getting help for yourself.
-
Casey said: “Looks like Marty posted a statement on the Foreclosure Code site. I’m glad he is telling his side of the story. It’s all coming to an end and its good to bring EVERYTHING to light.”
What do you think is good about the details Marty posted? He’s confirmed multiple instances where you broke your agreement with him. It’s that much more evidence that you are in no way capable of being a successful businessperson.
-
Nice article Casey!
http://www.sacbee.com/103/story/274523.html
Are you sure you didn’t mean to say “fail through”?
CASEYS TO-DO LIST FOR MONDAY JULY 16 2007
1. Call Sac Bee reporter and let him know that the story has changed!
-
#17 - “Good for you, Casey! It’s time you stood up to these guys! The unethical business tactics of Mark “I-spell-at-an-eight-grade-level” V********* have turned me from a hater to a supporter! ”
If you’re going to bag on someone for their spelling, you might want to check your own. It’s “eighth-grade,” not “eight-grade.”
Then again, it seems that all of the twelve-year-olds have shown up at IAFF as of late.
-
-
I’m no longer that interested in Casey’s follies.
What fascinates me is how many adult, professional people have gotten sucked so deeply into this vortex of madness. How come there are so many that have become totally consumed by this bizarre drama? What’s the attraction? This is a nice blog to visit twice a week - kind of like checking out Box Office Mojo on Mondays.
But why would anyone actually get emotional about this? This site was like offbeat comic relief six months ago… then it took a darker turn when we realized how badly a lot of people were getting hurt… but now it’s an all-out freak show. The formerly peripheral persons are all of a sudden pushing to the center stage, revealing themselves to be just as unhinged as Casey.
-
Casey, it was good that you got away from those two grifters. Don’t speak with them or do anything. What is most important is that you make up with your family right now. Explain to them your side of the situation. Family is what is most important. My son was the best thing that ever happened to me. After his birth, I stopped drinking briefly and took a part time job. It was great. Please make up with G and your family.
-
Mark will sue duane as he did to Casey,
Good Luck Duane..
Mike
-
ROFLMAO!
You know, there is nothing I could possibly say at this stage. I am just going to sit back and watch the fireworks.
It will be a good learning experience for you Casey. You will learn that court settlement agreements can NOT be backed out on. Not without sanctioning by the court.
But hey, you’ll learn it the hard way. (Like you have everything else in your life)
Think of it as “failing forward”.
-
I cannot decide who disgust me most - Casey, Mark, Marty, Duane or that creepy “$100′000 a year” slimeball.
This site is like the seething underbelly of the American Get Rich Quick Universe. Fascinating.
-
Casey & Mark & Duane & Steve & G. are all in this together so they can share the money from the books and the movie.
1. This blog will never shut down
2. This is just a drama before the books
3. They are all acting together to get the major traffic onto this site
4. You are all being used.
5. Their goals is to have all media cover this special drama
so they can get all the FREE publicity.
6. You people are just puppets..I see the future..Casey scams you again..
-
I am interested in knowing more about your domain for sale. I am currently renovating a house that I am living in to sell for a profit. I won’t have cash to buy the domain for a couple months. If it is still available then, let me know.
As for the “flipping” I am doing… It’s only working because it’s in a high demand neighborhood in a local market that is still growing. It’s a location that is very desirable, but the houses are old and small. So the added value is modernizing it and additional sq ft. so it would work for a family.
What concerns me is that without all of the content, the search engine ranking will drop, because it’s part about content, not just links to get a high ranking. After you pull down the blog, shouldn’t you put some content relevant to foreclosures up and let it sit for a couple months, to see what would happen to the rankings?
-
No hatin’ here, Casey. Just sorrow. Sorrow for the pain you’re in (and the pain you’re going to be in) and sorrow for the pain you have caused. Mostly the latter, to tell you the truth.
If you really want G back, you’ll have to win her back. And at this point, the only way to do that will be to change, and prove to her that you’ve changed.
If I were you, here is what I would do:
1. I would call/write her, and get down on my metaphorical knees. “G,” I would say, “I’ve been a complete and utter fool…”
2. Then, I would CHANGE. I would do things that G wanted me to do. I would shut down the blog. I would get a W2 job. I would try to settle with my creditors.
3. I would sell the domain now. I would make sure that money went to G in some way.
4. After I had been working, full-time, for a year, and had agreements with all my creditors, and had been paying down my debt, then and only then would I go to G on my knees and beg her to take me back.I wouldn’t get my hopes up, though, because:
If I were G:
I wouldn’t take you back. Ever. You have to face up to the fact that you have hurt her. You have hurt her badly, Casey. If anybody did to me what you have done to G, I wouldn’t ever give them a chance to do it again. Even if she doesn’t take you back, she’s going to be climbing out of this godawful hole you dumped her in for a very, very long time.
(It’s ironic, isn’t it: if I examine the situation rationally, the things I would do to win G back are pretty much exactly the things that you have already agreed to do. Maybe, just maybe, LMP and D really ARE trying to help?)
-
Kid,
You signed your rights away for money and support.
Now you lost it all. LossMitPro will take IAFF, your story AND the 20K he was going to pay you.
Just like when you buy a new car there is no “cooling off time”, you went on public record on TalkShoe stating your agreement AND more importantly, how you agreed and were the one who initiated the details of the deal.
So you hung yourself dry kid.
If I were you, I go crying and begging on Mark and Duane mercy.
-
Wow, I dislike someone in this whole saga more than you.
Come on down, Mark VILEsenor. You’re a wanker. Congrats.
-
Many people want to see Mark go down. You have the power, he has a silly action. Get the PAYPAL link up NOW!

Casey,
You entered into contracts with these people. You cannot just blow them off. And if you try to, you’re beginning to see what happens.
It’s time to pay the piper.
-
HEY kC,
It was actually Sid Vicious, and the Sex Pistols.
Enjoy. -
Have you ever seen a movie where you ended up hating both sides and wish they would just take each other out? This saga is just about getting there for me.
I started out as a haterz. Then the whole Duane/LMP thing turned me off and made me started feeling bad for Casey. Now this latest turn of events and the revelation from Marty… Casey, you need to learn that you can’t enter agreements lightly!!! And if you do, you can’t just make it go away just because you don’t feel like it anymore! Oh, forget it. You’ve heard this like what, a few thousand times already?
I have to admit, I didn’t think highly of Marty at first, with the plans for guru seminars, self-help material, and this previous “Adsense Code” book. But you know, thus far, I think he has been the most professional of Casey and the three stooges! He’s telling his side of the story, and that’s it. He has taken losses (just like all of Casey’s partners), but he’s not boasting of his legal prowess or threatening silly lawsuits, he’s not trying to “help” Casey or getting involved in Casey’s marriage, and he’s not squeezing blood from a turnip or scheming to get his grubby hands of any of Casey’s properties, what little there is left.
The JV turned out to be a bad business deal, he’s cutting his losses, and moving on. I can see that this man has a real business he has to run and has better things to do than to co-star in a soap opera. Good for you, Marty!
-
I’ve been following this blog since October, in the days of Kiyosaki and PrLinkBiz, and I’m trying to remember… Has there been a business deal that Casey didn’t back out of? This is not a joke; I’m honestly trying to remember. Can someone help me out here?
-
All,
This whole website is turning into a carnival. A bunch of juveniles screaming at each other. It reminds me of some the bizarro sort of World Wrestling Foundation (WWF) plotlines I used to watch when I was 8 years old. None of the stories really made any sense, but the meatheads always end up exhchanging blows. -
Hi KC,
Another good one of ” I Did It My Way ”
Enjoy. -
You are still famous, Casey. Spotted this over coffee this morning:
Bob Shallit: A flop as a ‘flipper,’ he seeks a real job
By Bob Shallit - Bee Columnist
Published 12:00 am PDT Monday, July 16, 2007Casey Serin says he’s ready to get a real job.
The 24-year-old West Sacramentan achieved national fame — infamy, really — by failing miserably as a real estate “flipper” and then drawing attention to his misfortunes in a tell-all blog called “iamfacingforeclosure.com.”
Now, in a mass e-mail sent this week, he says he’s giving it all up.
The blog. A planned book. Other real estate deals.
“I am pulling the plug on everything,” says Serin, who claimed to have racked up $2 million in debt after buying eight homes in seven months in what he calls his “last e-mail.”
Serin tells us his focus on the blog caused stress for his wife and extended family.
“I’m realizing money and fame is not worth a failed marriage,” he says, adding that he intends to focus on repairing relationships and “getting a regular W-2 job.”
The news is bound to be viewed skeptically by the “haterz,” the name for the legion of blog-following Serin critics who say he misled financial institutions in securing loans for his ill-fated home purchases.
They’re apt to point out that he closed the blog once before, only to reopen it weeks later.
“I don’t expect people to believe me,” he says. “The only thing I can do is follow through this time.”
-
Get a Tip Jar up Casey. File a retsrainig order against Mark and Duane. Take the death threats to the police. These guys are nuts. I was never a supporter of you, I felt you made many mistakes, but what they are doing is over the line.
I think all of Marks podcasts, posts ect should be sent to the Judge that was involved in all of this. The big point of Marks was you were posting his name all over, look at how he is showing himself like a 2 dollar w**** . It does not look like a man that is trying to stay out of the public eye. Also, in many peoples opinion Duane is after G, when her name is even brought up, he falls all over himself.
I would also verify that you were contacted by the FBI, if not, turn all of this inof over to them as well. If you get a tip jar up, I will send you some funds. Good luck -
Drama Summary:
A group of MLMers, turned network marketing, turned real estate guru numb-nuts are shaking down a self-deluded dreamer for what amounts to be nothing more then a public journal of shame.
QUESTION OF THE DAY: If you had billions of dollars to blow buying up websites, how much would you pay for this one?
I’d pay about $150.00.
-
Casey, you are chasing the shiny object again.
List of Things for Casey to do:
1. Talk to a contingency lawyer and see if you have grounds to sue any of your tormentors in civil court. If not, no loss there - they will just refuse to take your case.
2. Go into LMP-Ignore-Mode.
3. Go into Duane-Ignore-Mode.
4. Get a Koi pond, they are very relaxing I hear.
5. Get some juice, you deserve it. -
Casey-
This story is getting sillier every moment. You’re selling, you’re not selling. I just don’t see any rhyme or reason to anything you’re doing. I tend to think you’re being heavily influenced by others that have their own interests.
You cannot fault anyone for acting in their own interest. But somebody has to think for Casey- and that should be Casey.
There is this whole subtext of saving your relationship, but still think this is by no means certain by all these actions.
You really should focus on maximizing the value of the blog, book, etc. If it is debt that is driving a wedge in your relationship, than maxing the value is the best way.
It may be too much to ask that you actually make a plan of how to get the max value, but you would cut down on all this back and forth decisionmaking. Just a hint- changing your mind every day or so benefits no one.

@172. James Marks
“Family is what is most important. My son was the best thing that ever happened to me. After his birth, I stopped drinking briefly and took a part time job. It was great.”Great, you stopped drinking BRIEFLY! And then, oh my, a part-time job? That must have been really grueling. Casey, maybe you can learn from this man.
-
@177
The problem is that this blog has NO CONTENT at all about foreclosure. The only content about foreclosure is in the title. No educational material, no nothing. This site is all about Casey Serin and his stupid (mis)adventures. Period. After it’s over, that site will encounter some decent traffic for 2-3 months, then collapse. Why do you think people come here ? Not because of foreclosure stuff. Everybody comes to the soap. Will he divorce ? Will he get caught by FBI ? Will he be prosecuted ? Will he go to jail ? Will he pay his debts (er… well, not that one, everybody knows he won’t…) -
Let’s all sign a petition to get Duane Lefart shut down.
We can begin by contacting the Feds about his equity skimming. They’ll be all over him in a heart beat. -
Just another 5 cents. I do believe your book has a chance to succeed. Just imagine how many people got burned by the current real estate market. Marketed as “… You think you are in trouble? Check out this…” would make your book a kind of therapeutical read. People find relief in watching others suffering a greater deal than they are, and this should make your book a bestseller. Please, just stop this suicidal practice of cherishing snakes in your bosom.
-
Sharky,
You obese, prematuringly bald Bas****.
Go back under the rock you crawled out of.
We know the truth about you too and it “ain’t pretty”.
Before you go poking around and sticking your nose into Casey’s business, you have a bit of your own messes to attend to.
Biting my tongue now over the “crimes” you commited during the housing boom that you think no one knows about.
Shut up Troll. You sound like you have the emotional IQ of a 2 year old. -
@119. Carol
“Real publishers PAY THE AUTHOR. AUTHORS do NOT PAY to get their books published.Casey, if you want to self publish your book, you can self publish for much LESS than FOUR THOUSAND dollars.”
Correct. The average first time novelist gets paid about 4K as an advance. The author doesn’t pay to get published.
Also, if Casey wanted to self-publish then he could have done the book through lulu.com and not have paid anything upfront at all. They make most of their money off of a commission on each book sold.
However, if you want to get a UPC code so that you can sell on Amazon then they do charge an upfront fee of something like $150 (that’s one hundred, not one thousand) upfront.
You design the the cover of the book, decided on what format you want (hard cover, paperback, comic book, whatever), upload the text and graphics, and start selling. The books can either be ordered directly from their site or you can set it up so that you handle the orders and forward the orders to their site.
They even do CDs, DVDs, calendars, comic books, and photobooks, and they’re considered one of the few self-publishing companies to be completely above-board and legitimate.
Too bad for Casey that Marty isn’t the same.
Casey, screw Marty. He was trying to rip you off and you didn’t even know it. Sit down and write up your story yourself, then get a friend that’s not illiterate to edit it in exchange for “editor credit”.
I know that the reason that you went with Marty was because he made it sound so easy for you. All you had to do was dictate a microphone and someone else would transcribe it and write it up for you. It was almost passive income. But it’s not working.
Either do it the right way or give it up entirely. It’s obviously turned into more effort than if you’d written it yourself and had Kinko’s print the books up or something along those lines. These half-hearted efforts of yours are what cause all of your problems. Quit being so lazy.

“but he’s not boasting of his legal prowess or threatening silly lawsuits,”
Yes, Marty has threatened silly lawsuits. He has done this many times.
“he’s not trying to “help” Casey or getting involved in Casey’s marriage,”
True enough - he certainly hasn’t tried to help Casey. Casey has stated that he believes Marty interfered with his marriage when Marty threatened to sue Casey after Casey took down IAFF in accordance with the contract he had written with his wife.
“and he’s not squeezing blood from a turnip or scheming to get his grubby hands of any of Casey’s properties,”
Isn’t he doing exactly these things with his fight to retain the rights to this stupid “Foreclosure Code” book and series of seminars, or whatever that idiotic product line is?
-
Casey, you are DEEP in trouble dude.
Are you going to go under the “radar” like you said in your blog should the legal system go after you?
-
“So lets just forget about the whole thing and move on with our lives.”
If only the bank accepted those terms, eh?

Didn’t Casey already transfer IAFF rights (by way of a Trust Agreement) with a family member to ensure it was free of litigation?

If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she ever comes back, she’s yours,
If she doesn’t, as expected, she never was … -
Is there a tip jar to help LossMitPro case against you Casey?
-
Casey,
I am sorry to hear all your struggles and think as I said earlier you and your wife should take some time off away from everything and come back refreshed to deal with all this.
BTW, You will need a good lawyer that knows the DA’S office and personnel personally like one who used to be a chief/lead prosecutor etc. It does make a difference.
GOOD LUCK!!
-
Will you offer your domain publicly for sale? I think you would get more for it if you did?
What about listing on auctions sites such as Ebay with a reserve that is acceptable and post here what the bstatus of the auction is?
Thoughts?
-
Casey, you had a Turn-a-Round story with Mark and Duane.
You blew that option. Worse, now you have 2 sharks after you.
Start running dude.
-
Casey, sell the domain and move your story to IamFacingLegalProceedings.com. Legal proceedings still covers foreclosure, but it also covers the rest of the issues you are facing, including bankruptcy, divorce, civil lawsuits, and criminal prosecution.

Why don’t long posts get read?
Because stupid people think “I’ll just read the juicy bits and ignore the substance”.
The idiots have already scrolled past because it’s “too long” - particularly those who are considering law-suits and the like.
They are too wrapped up in their own sad lives and will not even get half-way through this post.
I may be weird. But based upon all the evidence, I am now officially a supporter.
And it isn’t for Casey. He’s done wrong. He knows it. In due course he will pay the price. But he will gain from the experience.
This whole saga and many of the followers are almost like a swarm of flies that have congregated on the discharge.
The people filing lawsuits are lower than the low. Why on earth are they getting involved. Surely they should just get on with their lives?
Or are they flies? There is nothing else more important to them than swarming. Maybe if they are faster than the other flies, they will get the best piece of s**t. And they can lap it up because they have nothing better to do.
I don’t condone Casey. But the whole circus has been created by people who relate to him - do you know why? Because many of them were just like him.
Get on the psychiatrist’s couch and work that one out.
They’re jealous because they worked in dead-end jobs at his age and younger. And suddenly, here’s a guy who skipped the dead-end jobs and the experience that gives you, and hey presto!
They don’t want him to succeed. Just because they didn’t. And they’ll do their best to prove themselves right and everyone else wrong.
Leeches that press law suits? We need to pray for their souls. Because they may not be going in the right direction. It may be south.
They are probably too caught up in his whole mess to even read a post like this.
In fact they’ve already gone by now.
So, for the more intelligent readiers, the rest of this post is dedicated to you.
They will ignore it because it doesn’t fit in with their “view of the world”. They will kid themselves believing they are doing it for some “greater good”.
But really, they won’t even admit it to themselves. They will think that they just simply have to carry on with this circus.
After all, they are trying to position themselves for the most succulent piece of s**t to gorge themselves upon.
They may make a penny or two. Or get some reflected “glow” on their business so they do “leverage” the amazing interest on this blog.
Let the guy go.
Let’s face it, he may listen short-term. It won’t last. He has many more mistakes to make before he find his place. Be jealous that he short-cut the system. Try to prevent it by all means. But the guy will learn.
Not least from amateur commentators like me who need to get a life too!
If this is an elaborate scam that Casey has orchrestrated, and is still doing so, then I tip my hat to him.
It is incredible enertainment.
I for one, don’t care if I’m scammed and shown to be a fool - the man has earned it. I am entertained.
Either let the roadshow continue or not, as your personal taste for landing on s**t dictates.
But if you simply want to see the story reach a conclusion, early August or not, then keep tuned, but judge the commentators as equally as the moderator.
If you don’t like landing on s**t, then stay away from the smell at a discrete distance and watch the leading “flies”, like the law-suit wielders, suck up as much crap as they can gorge themselves upon.

“Casey,You entered into contracts with these people. You cannot just blow them off. And if you try to, you’re beginning to see what happens.
It’s time to pay the piper”
>You forgot to say “and the bottom line is”…we know all the many posts you have here MV & DL you dimwits. Get an education and stop picking on a young guy who is down on his luck. Have you no conscience? Why are you so obsessed with C & G?
Get a freakin life. Stop projecting all your incompetent crap onto Casey.Anyone can cancel a contract anytime they want to, especially if they find out after the fact that this contract is a set up to lose all they have left. Contracts are cancelled all the time. Get a clue.
Stop terrorizing Casey. You are twice his age and should know better. This IS what you do for a living right MV?
You terrorize people who are down on their luck for 12 buck an hour. What you are doing to Casey is not out-of-character for you.The FBI call was probably one of you “characters” who staged it and made the call.
The FBI does not want to air this out because they would be airing out all the things the lenders did that was predatory including cash clod and the people who sold him the Corp.
NAACP has a lawsuit going against many of the big named lenders. They are being charged with predatory lending.All this psychological warfare against Casey is going to make more supporterz out of the haterz and this whole thing will slam you “characters” big time.
People will not tolerate what you are doing.
There are people on this blog more powerful than you are.
We are prepared to fill that tip jar for Casey’s legal defense.
We’ll be loooking for word of that restraining order Casey, along with confirmation that you have copies of all the threats made towards you either in audio, or in print.
Start now to build your defense.
And you two clowns need to stay out of other people’s personal and family business. You are trolling the family and you caused this rift. You have put the wrong idea in certain family members head. You have set the stage and continue to set Casey up. You seek to destroy Casey for your own ulterior motives. We all know what those motives are.
Back off buckos…that’s what Casey said.
Time for a little offense Casey.
Get a life and leave Casey’s personal and family business alone. There needs to be a restraining order that these bozo’s not have contact with any family members. The family members are getting one side of the story which is these “characters” story all the while butting their nose into other people’s business. Butt out. Stop smooth talking the family with lies about Casey.
Your family needs to wake up before they regret listening to these “characters” who are really good cons.
They are trying to get G to divorce you. They intend to take you down. Don’t let this happen. Just because they hate you.
In their own words “let’s get him, let’s DESTROY him”They do not need a reason but this has been their plan since January.
Your family needs to wake up that they are being set up too.
supporter.. then hater…. then supporter..
-
Ohhh yeah…Set it up. This will add more Haterz to you once you don’t use it for it’s intended purpose. It seems like the strongest road to being a Hater is by being a strong supporter. Casey just seems to have a knack for throwing people under the bus. I’m pretty sure Martin S. is on the verge as well. Just picture Casey taking that money and buying some more penny stocks…That’s just awesome. People gone line up to beat him up…The drama will continue and the Haterz will keep growing. So let’s see it.

BTW, Casey, if you are still reading:
Remember Einstein’s words (oh, I forgot - School is for loozers): Insanity is doing the exact same thing over and over again, and expecting different results.

How long have you tried to become rich via whatever a stupid guru has told you? Isn’t it time for you to put a stop to this nonsense?
-
Casey,
I hope you read this. Whether or not you choose to post it, I hope you read it.
You’re boxed in, and I think you’re figuring that out. It’s not your fault; you made mistakes, and then everyone jumped in to kick a guy while he’s down. Now they’re coming in to finally finish you off.
There’s no way to get out of this drama, so long as you’re wedged in between Duane, LMP, Marty, the FBI and the Haters. You’re not in a position to fight this out, and if you try, you’re going to be crushed. You have to know this. Not your fault, but you have to know better than fighting a suicidal battle.
Your only real option now is tactical withdrawal, regrouping, and then reentering the battlefield on your own terms. It’s either that, or sitting and waiting for the FBI to land. That’s what you’re down to, Casey.
Sacramento is about 500 miles away from the Mexican border. There’s no warrant out for your arrest right now, but that could change at any time - right NOW, you could get across the border as a free citizen of the United States. It’s unlikely that you’re such a priority to the FBI that they’d send a task force after you.
If you left right now, you could be in San Diego by late tonight. Most likely, you could make it over the border, and then you’re golden for a while. There are plenty of places down there friendly to middle-class white young Americans, you’ll have almost a whole new continent to enjoy, and you’ll still have most of the tech conveniences you enjoy here. Every American dollar will go a lot farther in Mexico, and you’ll have the space you need to get yourself together.
Don’t be stupid. You can’t win on these terms. Change the rules while you still legally can. Take a pleasure trip, visit lovely Mexico, regroup, and then come back and show everyone.
I know you can do it. Keep the faith, brother.
-
Casey, what’s up with this “Sharky” character? You really do have quite a following of obsessed stalker types.
You really need to start banning their asses for your site.
-
Why don’t you just start IAMFACINGLAWSUITS.COM and get it over with. We all know by now that this whole drama is staged, so you might as well get going on the new blog.
-
Odds that pink_lips is for real and not a troll?
At this point I would have to say >90%.

Contracts are grey areas right? Your toast! Glad G left you.
-
Casey, your wife just posted that she wants you back and wants to mend things.
This is a good news! You need to get back together dude and flip more houses.
Think of the good old times!
-
Well, color me surprised: Casey is (attempting to) back out of the settlement. Good luck with that one, pal.
So, let me get this straight: you want to go back on the part where the proceeds from the sale of the domain (it’s not the BLOG you’re selling, it’s the DOMAIN, I really wish you could get that straight, being as you do think you’re a businessman) go to your w****, and instead keep the money for yourself.
That is reprehensible.
I’m sure you have all sorts of excuses about needing the money for a criminal defense lawyer. Guess what, Snowflake? YOU ARE THE DEFINITION OF DESTITUTE. You will certainly qualify for a federal defender. Contrary to popular myth, public defenders are often your BEST BET in a criminal proceeding (and the federal defenders’ office is a VERY competitive job to get. Those are some damn fine lawyers you’ll have on your side, for FREE).
So the business about you needing the money for a defense is BS.
What’s the real reason?
I have a theory, but let’s see if you let this comment through (or god forbid, answer) first. If you do choose to answer, please note that my question is not addressing the amount of money. I know you claim to have a larger offer than Duane’s and he’s supportive of you getting a bigger offer. The main problem seems to be your wish to divert the money from it’s originally stipulated destination. Is everyone supposed to trust you to do the right thing? I guess there’s a first time for everything, but when the stakes are this high, you’re in no position to expect trust.
-
For a guy who is sitting on a potential goldmine, the Casey brand has had difficulty translating deals into cash. Try getting big fat checks upfront henceforth. Marty is a looser too. What a joke of a deal that was! He wants you to do the marketing plus pay production costs. Do you really need a boat anchor around your neck sucking money for nothing? This guy has not given you a red cent either. Perhaps I am mistaken. Are you in the position of a generous man handing out money for nothing? No, you are barely beneath the surface with a short straw keeping you alive. Pick a random literary agent out of a catalog, and you will be better off that staying with Mr Las Vegas businessman.

Casey is far from the defintion of destitute that you claim. When is the last time you took a vacation to Australia. I have no idea where the money is coming from, but he’s still paying the bills for his blogging account, manages to get around town after giving his Vdubs to G*, and (according to witnesses) still doing the Jamba Juice routine. -
Little Ricky (on the drums) wants you to post that picture of you at Jamba Juice wearing those neat wrap-around sunglasses again.
-
How about another trip to Ozstralia? (Just trying to be helpful)
-
Please read the information at this link and then run, don’t walk, to the courthouse with transcripts of Mark and Duane’s talkcasts.
-
Casey, no more picture of you doing flips? No more it’s all good?
Oh man, they really must have your nuts in a tight grip.
-
@201 - Agnostic Poster,
Good points. I had forgotten about the threatened lawsuits and all… I suppose the suits would somewhat interfere with the marriage, but I feel that’s more of a side effect of Casey’s idiotic contracts, rather than say talking to G***** and actively trying to get the two of them apart…
Perhaps it’s just me, but I really don’t like all this vigilantism that is going on. It’s one thing to laugh at the trainwreck; it’s quite another to interfere in people’s private lives. Divorce is a very serious thing, and it shouldn’t be undertaken to amuse bystanders or to stroke egos and satisfy people’s need to ‘help’ others. If you really want to help someone financially, just write them a check and be done with it. All this talk with forcing domain sales to donate proceeds and setting up trust funds and all that just drags you down to Casey’s level - using innocent bystanders to create Internet drama. Marty scores big points with me by not getting involved with any of this farce.
Seemed like from the latest post on the foreclosurecode site that Marty’s not fighting THAT hard for the rights to publish the book, other than to say that Casey can’t reassign the rights. He seems resigned that his investment has gone down the toilet… I do see the guy’s point - who wants to buy this book without Casey promoting it?
-
Last week you were a winner, now you’re a looser
-
You don’t need a criminal defense lawyer, Casey. Now stay with me on this.
You told us months ago that you weren’t afraid of criminal investigators. I think you said: “I’m not afraid of them. They know where I am. If they want me, they can come get me”.
Good. You’re not afraid of them. You’ve got some serious cojones.
Now, you’ve also told us that all you did was dabble in “grey areas”. Not fraud; just “grey areas”. The FBI and other LE are, basically, a bunch of uptight middle aged guys from the Midwest with antiquated notions of right and wrong. They are, in a word, prisoners of their own intellectually impoverished environment.
I think you should meet with them (just, please, get a haircut beforehand!) and, in your articulate way, show them the error of their ways. Lecture them on their constricted appreciation of “grey areas”. I think they’d like that. You’ll be helping them!
So: all the IAFF money goes to G’s debt; you help some G-men overcome the limitations of their upbringing and environment; and you walk free [the latter is a given]!
Win-win!
-
“So, let me get this straight: you want to go back on the part where the proceeds from the sale of the domain … go to your w****, and instead keep the money for yourself.
That is reprehensible.”
You have no idea how much of any sale he is giving to his wife’s benefit, or even what her wishes are.
And how is it “reprehensible” for a person to sell their own property however they want? What if he sold it for 2x as much- doesnt his wife benefit from that? Your faux outrage is not very convincing.
re Sharky: It would be a good idea if Casey blocked these homoerotically obsessed stalkerz from the site. We see what happened when an unmarried man had his advances rebuffed- he is in “collector mode” now. A reference I guess to “Silence of the Lambs”.

Hey Kid;
How’d the lawyer safari go?I’m surprised you had to go looking for one,what with all the legal beagles that were trampling each other to advise you that LMPjwas full of crap just last week.
Of course, their advice,individually and severally,was worth every penny you spent on it,huh?
So…how’d it go with REAL professional lawyers?
Let me guess; door locks were slammed shut,peals of laughter were heard,and well-dressed folks jumped out of back windows,scampering towards late-model imported cars,huh?Hobbit…remember those $39.00 Starbucks’ lattes everybody busted your chops about?
Well,with compounding interest and late fees and penalties and such,those September lattes should now be costing you about $50.00 a pop.
Bottoms up,buckaroo!

Casey Boy,
The Trailer Park Boys are here to save the day!!!!!
For only 5% of the gross profit from the website, we will be glad to do a “CODE RED” on lostmittens. We have also decided to kick Dee-Wayne Lefake’s a$$ for free. Ricky said neither one will bother you again after we are done. He mentioned something about beer bottles and KY lube…
As for the Time Line Guy, you can buy some enviromentally friendly air in a reusable plastic container at Party City. See some guy named laurence and he can give you some of that duct tape stuff too. That should solve the slow leak.
Well good luck with the lawsuits and wifey thingy and we will see you soon!

Remember, at the hearing, the burden of proof is on the plaintiff. Prepare yourself by bringing evidence that the plaintiff approached you and offered to provide services to you for “zip, nada, zilch”.
Make sure you haven’t signed the “settlement”. Explain to the Judge that you have not been able to come to agreement on a settlement. That may be the end of this hearing and another date may be set for the suit to be heard.
If not, present your evidence that the plaintiff interjected their self into your business affairs and began attempting to use the information you provided him in confidence to attempt to extort the business from you.
Explain to the Judge that you have filed for a restraining order against the Plaintiff for civil harassment.
Make clear to the Judge that the blog is your primary asset and source of income.
Please be clean, well-groomed and polite (haircut!). And don’t lie.
This is a civil matter, not a criminal matter and you will not be going to jail for this. Some of the other things, maybe.

Know what’s caused all the tempest among the haterz? Blindly thinking that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
Think about it. The haterz hate Casey. Mark and Duane hate Casey. Therefore the haterz love Mark and Duane. If the haterz had taken some time to look into Mark and Duane, they would have realized what scumbags they were all along. This is far from the first time Mark has pulled predatory lawsuits and tried to grab something for nothing. As for Duane, his unhealthy interest in G***** is unprofessional and creepy.
Maybe it’s time for the haterz to admit that there’s room for more than one loser in this whole mess. Personally I think they’re all losers. I totally agree with the poster above who called this thing “a view into the underbelly of get-rich-quick America.”

Bhaaa! Too bad you’re gonna have to settle that in court, buddy!

Casey,
Follow your dreams dude! They will take you in the right direction. I can feel it!
How can you go wrong?

What the hell is wrong with you? I mean we all hate Casey but you are W E I R D!!!
GO AWAY!

You are still da man.
Why is it that so many people have trouble spelling the word loser. What the hell is ‘looser’. Is that like ’she’s looser than that other girl?’.
You really have a divergent mix of people reading this blog. The overwhelming majoring who comment have no idea what the hell they are talking about, but a few are pretty knowledgeable.
I really don’t like the way some of them speak to you, like you are worthless or something. OK, you defrauded the banks, and that’s quite bad, but you are a person and still deserve some respect. This is especially true if you admit your failings, and wrongdoings, and deal with them appropriately.
Try to keep your chin up.

Casey you should make money by selling your own personal line of murses.

Hope you get a good offer for the blog.

Supporterz! Yes, there is now a Casey Serin help site. Its at http://www.thecaseyserinfund.com and you can go there and donate to Casey’s legal defence or Gs credit card debt or just to whatever Casey needs by PayPal. Keep up the fight and hopefully with some real legal muscle behind him, Casey can turn back the characters. We will enjoy watching them run and hide. This site was set up by supporters. It was not Casey’s idea. But Casey knows about it and he will post about it soon. If Casey really quits blogging on August 3rd, this will be the best place to get information on what he is up to. He will not be blogging there, but he will keep us up to date, and we’ll pass it on.
Be warned, this site is not to post venom and filth. We will not tolerate hateful comments that have no substance. You can criticize, but we aren’t going to let that site become the circus this one has become. You ask questions, we’ll try to get answers. It’s for Casey and Gs benefit only.

The geritol crowd needs to get a life. Casey needs a physician and an attorney. Enough already.

Let me tell you a true story. I’m sure you won’t post it, because it would take guts to post this.
I was at a restaurant the other night. I was sitting next to a working-class couple that were obviously having a hard time making ends meet, evidenced by the fact that they were eating at a diner for what appeared to be their 10th wedding anniversary.
They were getting pretty teary-eyed, talking about some heavy topics, like retirement, funding their young children’s college education, etc.
Towards the end, I heard the husband comforting his wife, telling her “Babe, listen, it’s going to be ok; at least LossMitPro and Duane are fighting back against Casey. At least there’s a few heroes left in this world.”
Got any thoughts on that, Casey? That working-class people are thanking their lucky stars that not everyone is caving into your ways?
-
Two things about you are well-known:
1) You will sign stuff that you should not sign.
2) You won’t get legal help when you need legal help.This has made LMP’s approach quite successful.

“So, let me get this straight: you want to go back on the part where the proceeds from the sale of the domain … go to your w****, and instead keep the money for yourself.That is reprehensible.”
You have no idea how much of any sale he is giving to his wife’s benefit, or even what her wishes are.
And how is it “reprehensible” for a person to sell their own property however they want? What if he sold it for 2x as much- doesnt his wife benefit from that? Your faux outrage is not very convincing.
*****
hey there, planks: Casey is married. His property is also hers (in California). Not to mention that he’s responsible for racking up the $30 G in debt.The settlement with LMP stipulated how the proceeds were to be disbursed. Pay attention there, newbie! That would be the settlement THAT HE AGREED TO LAST WEEK.
Maybe you should get more information before posting. G herself has posted at EN, Duane has conveyed G’s emails, and he’s made it quite clear that her wishes are NOT to be left holding the bag on this one. Hell, she called into the Hatercast (she didn’t speak, just listened… but still)!
I mean, it’s cute of you to drop in and start blasting, but you obviously don’t know what’s going on.
Since it doesn’t look like Casey’s going to respond, here’s my theory on what’s happening:
It was clear to me from last Thursday’s fraudcast that Casey was doing all this because he believed he could get his w*** back. Over the past week it’s become abundantly clear (probably even to him, in his reality distortion field) that that’s not likely to happen.
Therefore, if there is nothing in it for Casey, there is no reason not to keep all the money from the domain sale for himself. It was never about “doing the right thing” or caring about G. He was willing to do the escrow account only because he saw a benefit (”saving the marriage”) to it.
In Casey’s world, Casey is the only thing that matters.

Casey -
Two words to consider for prison: bass tape.
-
Damn,
This drama never ends. I never thought it would. Why?
1. Casey can’t accomplish anything, including a sale of contract.
2. Casey lost his wife permanently. Doing this isn’t going to win G***** back, so Casey thinks Duane is trying to bone his wife. Maybe she’s just tired of being with you, regardless of sale. Women often reach a breaking point; when broken, they’re gone.
3. Casey is afraid of losing his Internet celebrity and returning the anonymous world of being a nobody.
4. Casey found out his resume doesn’t qualify him for anything higher than a Best Buy greeter.
Dude, dump your wife, keep the blog. And just shut your piehole about going away, you little Internet w**** .
Still hoping Bubba and Jorge gets to tag-team your a** in prison.
-
Casey,
Congrats on sticking up for yourself. You did the right thing.
Just a few quick suggestions….
1.) Stop talking to The Characterz. No more emails, no more phone calls, etc.;
2.) Stop talking *about* The Characterz; you got it out of your system, now move on and FOCUS;
3.) Keep the blog going. It’s a nice little cash cow for you. Maybe spend a little less time on it, but keep it going, nonetheless;
4.) Up to you, but maybe start looking for a W-2 job. It will provide a little stability, put some steady cash into your pocket, get some benefits (like health insurance), etc. It will also help you get your mind off stuff;
5.) I’m not sure what sort of publisher is/was working on the Foreclosure Code… but if they’re not part of the “big boys,” then hook up with one! Seriously, hard-cover and/or paperback, with a national distribution capacity. You can make some serious $$$ on a REAL book (like something we can buy at Border’s, Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, etc.). Your story WILL sell!!! To be honest, I’m not sure if there may be any legal ramifications of you profiting off such a book, but if it’s minimal to none, then DO IT, DUDE!!! None of this e-book stuff, you know? You need a real New York City kind of publisher. Maybe hook up with a (real) NYC literary agent to help you shop around? You’ll get a sweet advance upfront ($$$) and sweet royalties (passive income)!!!
6.) As for your relationship with your Significant Other, not sure what to say there, as I don’t know the whole story, and is frankly none of my business. But what I will say, is that just keep cool, and try not to do anything too stupid, heh. Keep in mind that a marriage is not only a partnership — but also a legal agreement, as well… and can have legal ramifications. Be careful, man!
Anyway, that’s about it for now. You’re on the right track. Now get out there and show the world what you’re made of. Take those lemons and turn them into LEMONADE!!!

Dont believe everything you read and certainly dont post it!!??At least until you know ALL the facts!!!
You can email/call me anytime as you have my info it isnt hidden. How about yours?

Casey- gone from a supporter, to a hater, to an observer, back to a supporter, now a hater…..
wow…. you display an uncanny ability to place yourself in stressful situations. I didn’t understand why you decided to sign the rights to your blog over to LMP/Duane. You need to face a couple of facts and plan your next steps based on them:
1. G***** is gone. face it, whatever $ you send her way will not change that.
2. You need to start looking after yourself, and yourself only. No one out there is looking after your best interests. Everyone has a motive for getting involved with you.
3. Trust no one. No more dealing with people over the net. You are a mark, and people are going to squeeze every single cent out of you.My advice is to take a cash offer for your blog now, hire a criminal defense attorney, and leave the country. Let your attorney deal with the FBI. Your stance should be to offer up the lenders/realtors that enabled you to commit this fraud. They don’t want the little fish, but will squeeze you in order to get the big fish. In addition I would offer up all of the guru’s that gave you instructions to commit this fraud. I don’t think your innocent. You are a polished con man, but you have painted yourself into a corner. I’ll leave you with this, I think this statement best describes you:
A scorpion and a fox stood at the edge of a river. The scorpion asked the fox if he could ride his back in order to cross the river. The fox replied “why? you’ll sting me”. The scorpion said, “why would I do that? I would die as well”. The fox agreed and started swimming across the river. Half way across the scorpion stung the fox. As the fox was going under he asked the scorpion why he did that. The scorpion replied “it’s in my nature”.
I wish you best of luck. I really do.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a more consistent person than Casey. He can be counted on to screw up everything he comes into contact with 100% of the time.
Way to go, Casey!!!!

From another blog that I read:
Mistakes are painful when they happen,
but years later a collection of mistakes
is what is called experience.- Denis Waitley-
If you have made mistakes,
there is always another chance for you.
You may have a fresh start any moment you choose,
for this thing we call “failure” is not the falling down,
but the staying down.-Mary Pickford-

This is about as interesting as watching a middle-school couple break up. (”I hate you; I’ll never go out with you again!” “No, please come back!”)
Casey:
1. You have an unhealthy addiction to blogging. I don’t mean that as an insult. But think about it. The internet in general is addicting. Emailing and instant messaging is addicting. Fame (regardless of the source) is addicting. Combine all three, as blogging does, and you’ve got a dangerous combination. You are so addicted to it you can’t let it go, even though it is ruining (has ruined) your life.
2. You’re also a user. You used other people’s money (and credit) and flushed it down one rat-hole after another without the slightest thought of the real value of the assets you were buying or carrying costs. Hey, since it wasn’t your money, who cared? On the other hand, when it does involve your money (i.e. selling the blog), you are so anal reteintive that you can’t even follow through with commitments because you are afraid you didn’t maximize every dollar of value (i.e., selling something for less than it’s worth). If you’d showed that much care in using other people’s money, you never would have gotten in the mess you’re in.
3. You are lazy. Real entrepreneurs work! They really work! They plan. They sweat the details. The build stuff. They provide services. They obsess over treating their customers right. The sweat every penny of every deal and run the numbers three times. You just borrow other people’s money and throw it away and think you’re an entrepeneur. Even your hero, Mr. Rich Dad, shyster that he is, had to sacrifice for years and learn the ropes of selling, business, finance etc. You are just looking for a magic bullet.
Recognize your faults, face them, and maybe you can correct them. Putting it off to another day (i.e. 22 days from now, or whatever) isn’t going to do you any good. Your blog will wither and die within two months whether you pull the trigger or not. Better prepare for it. Good luck.

guys why do you type such long posts?
isn’t it obvious by now that our hero is nothing but a troll? -
@ darko… you’ve probably got a million responses…
but it’s “The scorpion and The FROG” -

Here’s your best Solutions
1. declare BK (screw those 2 dumb guys)
2. buy a ticket to russia
3. marry a rich woman
4. come back to USA after 10 yrs ( after the BK period )
5. buy your houses again with the money from the marriage
6. start all over againGood Luck

Just wanted to say hi and remind everyone that Tracy at CHC is an empty headed, vacuous, filthy, trash mouthed broad.

Your -WIFE- needs that money you miserable piece of s*** .
I can’t believe I even gave you the benifit of the doubt last week, even considered for a moment you might actually be trying to do the right thing and pull your life together.
My prayers for your wife. May god have mercy on you for what you’ve done to her.
-
Zintradi
but you get the point, right? -
Casey -
I am going to make you an offer. You have my email address, so if you want to take me up on it, you know where to reach me.
I own a company that produces posters. We are one of the top producers of posters in Sacramento. If you are willing to put up the money, we would be willing to produce posers of you, and post them all over the place.
So bottom line: you pay for the posters, and we post them all over the place. You get a ton of publicity, and we get a new client. Also, we’ll give you a big break in price. Not something we do very often.
So contact me at my email address, and we’ll get these going. Don’t be a fool, and ignore this post.
-
You need to stay the course Casey.
Think passive income from IAFF. Why sell now? Continue blogging and do some shady deals and all will end up just right.
I just know it!
-
Nacho is a hero to a lot of people, for the things she has accomplished in her life.
The site she has built is pretty amazing, considering the skills she had to learn, and the value it has provided people.
-
Yeah, this is really a shame. If it wasn’t for the blog you’d be in far less trouble, you’d be deep in debt, and you’d probably working a crap job. But because of the blog, all these shady characters showed up, and now they’re screwing you. Like someone said, vultures. One of these clowns is going to end up with your domain name, probably. The fact is, with the contracts you’ve signed, you’re already ‘married’ to them. I hope you didn’t sign a contract for the domain transfer already. You could get a lot more money for it from someone else.
And you really need to post potential deals on your blog before you make them, so that people can give you feed back.
-
So I think we can all agree that this little drama is all over but the shouting. The death throes of this blog and the sanity of those who read/write it will last for a while longer but I think one topic still needs to be addressed: the title of this ridiculous book! Seriously, “The Foreclosure Code”? It’s so pointlessly and pathetically derivative that it actually boggles the mind of any semi-literate person. To be perfectly honest, I thought it was a joke a first - someone’s little trick. Absurd. Please, someone tell me this isn’t real.
-
@ 267. An Opportunity
Wanted posters?
-
Wow, over 400 comments on the last post, and it seems that there will be more that 300 for this one. Casey’s back, and so is his fame!
-
Uh, if it’s a private agreement, you can back out in a predetermined time frame depending on the state your in — but in this case, this is a stipulated settlement to avoid court. I don’t think you get to “back out” of this, Casey. I think this is your pig and you’re unfortunately quite stuck with it.
-
@272
The posters we produce help people (like musicians and furniture stores) successfully promote themselves.
Casey, by having us to produce a huge number of posters (I’m talking on the order of tens of thousands), will substantially increase his fame and positive image.
It’s a unique opportunity where he can get the financing, and we have the expertise and resources to make it happen, and give him a great discount. He’d be totally insane not to do this.
Casey, contact me as soon as you can, preferably tonight, so we can get this going.
-
Bring on LossMitProp and the court case!
Is LMP full of the beans?
Or does he have a case?
Only time and a court rulling will tell
Stayed tuned!
-
Casey, out of all the things that really bother me right now about all this, it’s got to be your own “wife’s” attitude toward you.
I married my husband for better or worse, and believe me we had our worse several times over. He made his financial mistakes and paid for them, sometimes dearly, but by God he did learn from them eventually.
He kept on trying to build his business because it was his dream, and because he wanted it and because I sincerely loved him, it was what I wanted too. I stuck by him every inch of the way.
It’s now been years since I worked with him to help him build that business, and now we are millionaires several times over. He’s told me many times he could not have done it without my support and belief in him when it seemd that no one else would give him the time of day.
If G can’t stick by you when you need it the most, then she doesn’t deserve to be there when you become successful.
Dump G and find a good woman who won’t desert you during the hard times Casey. You’ll never regret it.
-
You know I would be willing to donate money to help G with her debt issues, but I am not interested in doing it through a site that might give CASEY or MARK or DUANE any access to the money. If it was set up by she or her family and it could be proven I’d be willing to donate. Casey won’t ever change and based primarily on what I’ve read and what I’ve heard them say in the talkcasts, I believe Mark and Duane are about as trustworthy as a Rolex dealer in Tiajuana.
-
I reaad Marty’s statement. Marty is right. Casey is wrong.
Give him everything he wants.
-
@275. An Opportunity
I guess you do not know about Casey.
Casey is broke, no money, and a homeless guy now.
You should donate your money to Casey or give the poster free to Casey.
Wrong place to get clients…
-
How’s the job hunting going, Casey?
I can’t find the current personal financial statement you said you were going to put up last Tuesday. Maybe make that one of the links above your banner?
-
Casey,
How in the world you ever got involved with those two individuals is beyond me. I’m guessing they dangled a shiny object in front of you and you went for it. In my opinion it is highly unprofessional for a publisher to be airing dirty laundry on their website about you. There is a proper time and place for this and it’s in our court system. Given that the situation has degraded to such a toxic level, I really hope for your sake that you’ve got a lawyer and strongly advise you let the lawyer deal with them through the legal system.
By the way if the website does eventually get transferred to one of these individuals, please delete my email address, IP address plus any info on me from your system. I want nothing to do with those people.
-
Way to go Casey!
-
How come you’re still looking for a lawyer? This is the second? third? time you said you spoke to a lawyer, and you’re still looking for one.
Are you getting a free initial consultation or something? First time’s free so Casey only goes once. Are you scamming lawyers now?
Two words you need to know: PRO BONO, Casey. It means they work for free. Keep looking, eventually you’ll find somebody who believes you deserve representation.
-
Latest from boastful Lostmittens is that he’s got Casey by the short hairs, and this very lucrative property will be his soon, thwarting any other sales. See EN:
LossMitPro replies: No TRO, I’m asking for an order shortening time that’s all. Cuts the 664 motion time from about 20 days to around 10 (or less), and is just an in-Chamber meeting. Not a real critical step in the judge’s decision process, but helps to cut time from Casey selling IAFF and jammin outta here with the money.
But looks like a lot of legal mumbo-jumbo and hot air to me, since the 644 motion normally comes after a jury trial has been completed. -
Why does everyone keep saying that Casey broke some court settlement. No judge has seen this settlement, much less approved this settlement. The other party to the suit has not seen or approved the settlement. Fair ball.
What Mark needs to be worried about when he walks into court, is explaining why he was involved in a settlement that involved transferring assets of somebody that was under the investigation of the FBI. Sorry Mark, we both know that the judge didn’t know, but you did.
Entering into a “court settlement” to transfer assets into your possesion, of a person that is involved in an FBI investigation for fraud. Click.

@246
Casey Supporterz fund?????
1. You are not a non-profit, funds collected are not donations… it is a gift and is subjected to income tax/gift tax.
2. Casey will need to pay tax on the distributions also as income.
3. You are seeking a 15% Administrative fee.
4. The site listed no means of verification for management and distribution of funds.
1 (30%) + 2 (20%) + 3 (15%) = 65% “skimmed” off the top before the funds gets to where it needs to go. This means only 35 CENTS for every dollar gets to Casey’s cause.
(Unless you never intended to pay income tax… in which case, whoever owns that particular PayPal account is going to be in a heap of trouble with the IRS for TAX EVASION… which definitely comes with jail time. (Don’t forget, the FEDS are watching Casey right now… Are you sure you want to jump into that pile of mess?))
Good luck… With the going track record of those who tried to help Casey at one point in time or another. We’ll be expecting to see you “under the bus” shortly.

Here’s what a 664 motion entails in Calif, I guess 664.6 is of particular interest:
664. When trial by jury has been had, judgment must be entered by
the clerk, in conformity to the verdict within 24 hours after the
rendition of the verdict, whether or not a motion for judgment
notwithstanding the verdict be pending, unless the court order the
case to be reserved for argument or further consideration, or grant a
stay of proceedings. If the trial has been had by the court,
judgment must be entered by the clerk, in conformity to the decision
of the court, immediately upon the filing of such decision. In no
case is a judgment effectual for any purpose until entered.664.5. (a) In any contested action or special proceeding other than
a small claims action or an action or proceeding in which a
prevailing party is not represented by counsel, the party submitting
an order or judgment for entry shall prepare and mail a copy of the
notice of entry of judgment to all parties who have appeared in the
action or proceeding and shall file with the court the original
notice of entry of judgment together with the proof of service by
mail. This subdivision does not apply in a proceeding for
dissolution of marriage, for nullity of marriage, or for legal
separation.
(b) Promptly upon entry of judgment in a contested action or
special proceeding in which a prevailing party is not represented by
counsel, the clerk of the court shall mail notice of entry of
judgment to all parties who have appeared in the action or special
proceeding and shall execute a certificate of such mailing and place
it in the court’s file in the cause.
(c) For purposes of this section, “judgment” includes any
judgment, decree, or signed order from which an appeal lies.
(d) Upon order of the court in any action or special proceeding,
the clerk shall mail notice of entry of any judgment or ruling,
whether or not appealable.
(e) The Judicial Council shall, by January 1, 1999, adopt a rule
of court for the purposes of providing that, upon entry of judgment
in a contested action or special proceeding in which a state statute
or regulation has been declared unconstitutional by the court, the
Attorney General is promptly notified of the judgment and that a
certificate of that mailing is placed in the court’s file in the
cause.664.6. If parties to pending litigation stipulate, in a writing
signed by the parties outside the presence of the court or orally
before the court, for settlement of the case, or part thereof, the
court, upon motion, may enter judgment pursuant to the terms of the
settlement. If requested by the parties, the court may retain
jurisdiction over the parties to enforce the settlement until
performance in full of the terms of the settlement.664.7. (a) Notwithstanding Section 664.6, if parties to a pending
construction defect action stipulate personally or, where a party’s
contribution is paid on its behalf pursuant to a policy of insurance,
the parties stipulate through their respective counsel, in a writing
signed by the parties outside the presence of the court or orally
before the court, for settlement of the case, or part thereof, the
court, upon motion, may enter judgment pursuant to the terms of the
settlement. If requested by the parties, the court may retain
jurisdiction over the parties to enforce the settlement until
performance in full of the terms of the settlement.
(b) It is the intent of the Legislature that this section modify
the holding of Levy v. Superior Court (1995), 10 Cal. 4th 578,
regarding the authority of counsel in a construction defect action to
bind a party to a settlement.
(c) For purposes of this section, “construction defect action”
shall mean any civil action that seeks monetary recovery against a
developer, builder, design professional, general contractor, material
supplier, or subcontractor of any residential dwelling based upon a
claim for alleged defects in the design or construction of the
residential dwelling unit. -
I married my husband for better or worse, and believe me we had our worse several times over. He made his financial mistakes and paid for them, sometimes dearly, but by God he did learn from them eventually.
Did he lie to you? If so, how often? And did “his financial mistakes” involve doing incalculable damage to your own personal finances?
-
I wonder why a big business man would bother suing you. He’s got to be losing 1k or more per day just by being distracted from his real work. So he wants no more that 10k? It doesn’t seem like it would be worth his time.
So I assume it is out of spite or worse. Why would a grown man/men have so much interest in you. It’s just creepy. Why would they get so emotionally involved?
-
Casey
Now, more than ever, you need to file for bankruptcy.
Bankruptcy does a lot more than address your debts - it can also allow you to avoid these transfers if you got less than fair market value (which you did) and keep crazy people (not just creditors) from pursuing you (which they are).
It will also require that the Court approve any other major assets transfers, which should save you from yourself.
If you spoke with a real bankruptcy attorney before, ask him how it could help you now.

Duane has posted over at EN (http://exurbannation.blogspot.com/2007/07/bullet-point.html#comments) that he is DONE with Casey. He does not want the blog, withdrawn all offers and has told Casey this a while back. See EN for the full post.
My response:
Duane -
It is for the best. You have been honorable through this whole affair and offered CS far more chances than he deserved. Best to be out of range when Casey finally implodes.
-
Casey - Read this.
I’m in the UK, I posted before because I have a publishing company. You have been through this living nightmare for the last how long? And now when you’re at the point where you could actually make some real money - the very thing you’ve been trying to do all along - with the book & the blog, you prepare to throw it all away, firstly by giving away the rights to the book for nothing, & selling the blog for peanuts (If I were a psychologist I’d think that you want to fail, like you are afraid of succeeding).
You may not have noticed, but Bear Stearns today announced that their hedge funds heavily weighted with subprime mortgage securities are almost worthless - from $1.5 billion to around $90 million. What that means is a recession & that there are going to be the biggest amount of forecolsures that have ever been seen. How much will your blog & story be worth then?
You need to be able to think clearly (your life seems to be a jumbled mess - no wonder you can’t think straight) so you need to do the following:
1) Get yourself a GOOD attourney. I have had people aggressively threatening me & my business for frivolous legal reasons, & they are BIG names & worth millions of dollars - my business is tiny by comparison. However, all that they were doing was trying to scare us into submission. As soon as my legal representative (a friend in the legal profession who represented us for free) threatened them it put the sh*ts right up them - I could then forget about it all & get on with my life because I knew that he was dealing with it & he knew what he was doing. In the end the big boys were the ones to back down to me!
2) Speak to your wife & see what she intends to do. I’m sorry to say it but at least one of those guys seems to be trying to screw you around & getting you to p*ss off your wife so that he can slide in there. If she has no intention of a future with you then let it go & put it down to experience & you can then think more clearly about what you’re going to do.
3) Get things back on track with your publisher or find a new one - the book could be huge & will make you quite wealthy if you play it right - its time to start being a businessman & not just talk about trying to be one whilst playing nickel & dime games.
4) Think about the impending problems in the real estate markets & how you can position your blog &/or any other products to benefit from it whilst helping other people - this too could make you very wealthy.
5) Finally, don’t forget who gave you this advise & be sure to send me a generous check for my consultation
Get on with doing what you’ve always wanted to Casey, take this opportunity & turn it into cash - you won’t get another chance like it.
Best Regards,
Dave in the UK (thats England)
