Not sure if this is the correct place to post this or not. If it's not, please relocate it.

In February, the company I am working for made a deal with a guy named Steve Cole of Whitestar Plastics out of Nova Scotia Canada. We wired him a total of $10,000 for a deal that was to consist of roughly 20 tons of ewaste, a 53 foot trailer loaded front to back top to bottom.
Needless to say we got nothing. After the wire transactions were complete, communication dropped considerably. He would call our shop at 7:00 a.m., knowing we were closed, leave messages but then never answer any of our return calls. This went on for 4 weeks. He never provided shipping info, nothing.
In March he started making excuses, sent through email. The snow had prevented the shipment from making it out, a worker was in the hospital, the border agents were inspecting the entire load, button battereis needed to be removed from motherboards, so on and so forth. He then had the nerve to ask for MORE money...
In April we started making moves to recover our money, which doesn't sound too promising. We've spoken with lawyers, on both sides of the border, and spent quite a bit of money trying to reclaim our funds. Very slow going process once international borders are crossed.
Please all be aware of what you are doing. We, unfortunately, got a little too excited and are now paying the price, to the tune of 10k.

btw, we have all documents backed up for redundancy and can prove this quite easily.
 
Man if you had googled this guy and his company you would have learned that he is not a new comer to the game of cheating people.

I found complaints dating as far back as 2006

Hope you at least get your money back.

Best Regards
Gill
 
This wasn't my decision.

The complaints I found about him concerned mostly Malaysia and recycled plastics not ewaste.

Regardless, still feel pretty ridiculous. :evil:

If ANYBODY else has scammer info, is there a way to start a thread so the rest of us have a compiled list of people to avoid?

Paul Jones is another one to avoid. He has taken many many many people for millions of dollars selling them the SSN with BD method, claiming it as his own secret formulation... He sells you BD with AU already in it AND I personally caught him salting our leach tanks in order to convince us to give him $100,000 for his formula and design.

Beware. Beware PJ somebody might bury you if you keep it up.

You need to search the forum for buyers on here first.We have some very competative buyers on here,and If you need someone to vouch for them,just PM me with the members name,or ask publically.But I doubt you will have a bad experience with any of our members.
 
i am collecting in middle east. so I don't know Japan seems the lowest transportation costs from here. Just wanna know if anyone have heard or worked with them.

Regards,
Kevin

Heed the warnings - - I too know of people who have lost 100k or much more while dealing with Paul Jones and Rocky Ledge Mining Supply. Though this comes from personal experience and opinion -- few if any were willing to listen to reason.

The advantage of having experienced business partners or advisers - - working together - - knowledge is put to use - - failing to acknowledge such things generally results in the dissolution of projects or gold bearing properties, some of legitimacy or economic viability.

Having well over a decade of experience in the Nevada gold mining industry - - the most effective tool an investor has is that of an investors forum or the one we are responding too. A legitimate project can be verified locally - - the same for any individual - - do your homework - -

There is a long list of individuals who will never be allowed to step foot on our project - -
