I had to post about this because I am getting more and more people asking me about it, instead of asking Lerch and Engaged, who are better to be asking about this than me.
Here's what I know so far..
Chris lied about everything. Yes, everything. Well, except maybe his name and location in Texas, but everything else seems to turn out to be a web of lies that he constructed.
How people found out about it? Chris got himself drunk and spilled the beans that he's been living off of a family trust fund as his only source of income, and has never actually done anything to do with PPC marketing, affiliate marketing or PPC arbitrage. Yeah, that's right, you read correctly. All lies! Fuckkkkk!!
Worst part of it all.. he lied about having cancer! Can you fucking believe that!?!?!?! That's the part that really gets me pissed off, that someone is willing to go that fucking low and lie about having cancer just so that people feel bad for him and sympathize with him. I don't care if someone lies about everything else, but that, well, that just takes the fucking cake folks.
Apparently he has been on other forums ripping people off with these "give me $10 and I'll submit your site to 100 directories" and then running with the $300 or so from it. We caught him doing it on DP, SPF, and I think EF, but I'm not entirely sure about the last one.
I feel for engaged and Lerch and all of the other people who he comitted fraud on. I'm also glad that they found out early enough to not lose that much money.
He was also the one who started up all of the shit about me and WickedFire during our WF Riots almost a month ago. While he told me that it was everyone else, and that he was trying to play the nice good friend, it was really him orchestrating the whole goddamn thing and trying to be the attention whore he so desperately wanted to be.
It bugs me that a lot of people fell for this shit, because you don't expect this type of behavior from a 33 yr old guy, especially not one who meets everyone in person and seems so enthusiastic about making it big. But I guess that just goes to show you that in the end, there will always be scam artists like Mr. Chris Lingle.
So if you see this fuckface posting on any other forums, trying to sell something or talk a big game, let me, Lerch or Engaged know and someone will check it out. We've got his addresses, phone numbers, emails, and all sorts of other goodies, and since most of us know what he looks like in person, he won't be able to show his face at any industry events, ever again.
If you're reading this Chris, I just want to let you know that with all jokes aside, you deserve to go to hell for pretending to have cancer just so that people feel bad for you and don't hate you. That is one of the most fucked up and lowest things someone can ever do. I hope you get cancer of the cock and balls, and that they shrivel up, turn black, and fall off, causing you years and years of pain you stupid fuck. Also know that we are all on the lookout for you and your scams now, and you should be locked up and fucked in the ass for defrauding other people. I hope to holy hell you get caught one day and do go to jail for a long long time, because then you can play your web of lies in jail, and I doubt your cellmate Bubba will give a shit if you say you have cancer or not or how much money you say you make doing arbitrage when you've never touched it.
BEWARE OF THE SCAMMER BELOW!
