He’s good … outstanding public
Leader, voted for by the people … not sure what he’s up to nowadays.
Have you any other goals in Life, but to ask me “random” provoking questions?
Barrett; I wrote you a personal letter in
an effort to embrace you, not to banter with you.
Respectfully,
Rich

Okay, see you then. By
the way, how's your buddy Robert Torricelli doing?

Sit and stew with this as you will Barrett. I'll be
working towards a greater cause. See you out there …

Rich-
You just don't know when to quit, sir.
Here's the rest of the story for those of you who might actually still be
considering working for a guy who's already begun lying to you before you've
even signed a contract. Note that the following information is not covered by
the NDA; this is all data that only need be pieced together from public records
and five minutes on Google.
"Loan Saver," which will allegedly be in the business of performing a
wonderful public service for the nation's homeowners by way of educational
materials, is being represented by Mr. Preisig's friend Kyle Vonder Hulls, who
also just happens to be involved with Aspen Merchant Capital, which is a parent
company to New York Capital Funding, which is itself based in the same office
as Aspen Merchant Capital. Hilariously enough, the "educational" firm
that will be advising people on matters pertaining to unusually-structured
loans will be run by the very same folks who also want to provide people with
unusually-structured loans - and, of course, the guy who'll be in charge of all
this swell, free, and spiritually-motivated civic altruism, Rich Preisig, also
just happens to have been barred from brokering or even working with brokers by
the SEC because he had an unfortunate tendency to trick people out of their
money after first gaining their trust. But Rich Preisig wants you to ignore all
of that because, you see, he's married now, and he wants to start a family, and
plus he's managed to reach the ripe old age of 38 without having walked into
traffic or blown himself up trying to reprogram his VCR.
So, there you have it, guys. That's the job you're being asked to sign up for.
Thanks,
Barrett Brown

Thank you for your thoughts Barrett. I wish you well

We also regret that, although you were the "first"
to sign and send back the NDA, we're going to have to pass.
Ps. I'll be sure to work on my grammar and punctuation
skills, but not now, there's a lot to do. J

Comrade Preisig-
I sincerely apologize if I've hurt your feelings. I shouldn't have spoken out
like that without having first gotten your side of the story. So, let's get
that side of the story, shall we?
1. You note that you tried to take responsibility for your actions by
"accepting a bar from the securities industry," and you seem to imply
that this proves something about how you learned your lesson or reached a
higher plane of spiritual understanding or something to that effect. Is that
not a strange point to make, seeing as how a bar from the securities industry
isn't something that you choose to "accept," but rather an utterly
involuntary punishment that I suppose you could have tried to appeal were it
not for the fact that the SEC had a pretty damned strong case against you?
2. In reference to the above point, why would anyone want to work with someone
who was too dishonest for the securities industry?
3. In reference to your second paragraph, how does anyone reach the age of 38
in a developed country without knowing when it is appropriate to capitalize
words and when it is not appropriate at all?
4. In reference to your assertion that "LoanSaver.com exemplifies [your]
growing concern and immediate need to 'Educate and Protect' [sic] the
'Homeowners of America' [sic]," why do I get the impression that the
education in question will involve educating people about what a great idea it
is to do business with your other firm, Aspen Merchant Capital, or some other
nifty little boiler room you've got set up in Florida or some such place? Is it
because I'm not retarded?
5. Which part of my last e-mail was "drivel"?
6. How did you managed to get "humbled" by writing an e-mail that
also accuses someone else of "vitriolic drivel"? Is it because
you figured out towards the end that your e-mail is full of non-sequitors and
dime-store New Age nonsense? Were you high when you wrote it?
7. Do you expect to actually make some good money off of this scam? If so, I
take back everything I wrote. Let's do business!
8. Just kidding.
9. Congrats on the marriage.
With sincerest regards and visions of the dawning of the Age of Aquarius,
Barrett Brown

Dear
Barrett, Dennis, et al
While my
history is no secret, it is, however, truly history (the acts I took
responsibility for occurred more than eleven years ago.) I do regret hurting people. So I did what
I believed to be the right thing - I took responsibility for my actions by pleading
guilty, accepting a bar from the securities industry, and paying into a fund to
help the investors I harmed. I'm now 38, recently married (first for both
of us) and look forward to having a family.
With this

Ok, moving
on. I have absolutely no experience in knowing what the "proper

any suggestion(s) that lends itself to accomplishing each other's goals, as the
magnitude of this company will benefit 10's of millions, and we're just getting
started.
Thank you
all for your sincere consideration, as I am humbled writing this email.

I guess everything's been covered. I would just add
that the guy who's running the show per the NDA form has been barred from going
anywhere near a brokerage firm or even a share of stock:
http://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/34-44266.htm
... and that he and his friends have a tendency to skip out on civil trials:
http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117758451.html?categoryid=1009&cs=1
... and also that their offices are located on that same shitty block where all
the low-rent scam artists tend to congregate.
In fact, just Google "Rich Preisig" if you want to kill twenty
minutes.

Hey Guys,
Thank you
all for responding to our ad for freelance writers. We are looking forward to
launching a huge project and could use the help from all of you in this. The
exact nature of this project must remain confidential until its ready for
release, so I must have all of you sign and return the attached non-disclosure
agreements before topics can be assigned.
In an
effort to save time, once you have returned the NDA we will schedule a
conference call to disclose the nature of the project, discuss topics,
discuss pay and to answer all your questions.
I know
this may seem unusual, but given the scope of this project, this is how it must
be done. We are looking to work with 50 - 100 writers on a continuous
basis.
Please print, sign and fax this agreement to (866) 847 - 0478.
Once faxed
back, please email me your contact information. I will verify you have sent the
Non-Disclosure Agreement and forward you a schedule of conference calls along
with instructions on how to join the calls.
I look
forward to working with each of you.
