Need help/advice

[SVTMuscle*]

There's a guy that owes me $1,600. He is ignoring me completely. I dont know what to do. There are a few problems
A) I can not get physical with the situation
B) He'd kill me
C) He is ignoring my calls/txt's and everything.
So... anyone have any ideas? It's driving me insane i need the cash



And just to get it out of the way....I painted his house.

Take legal action.

[bigdog81]

threat him with a civil suit...
inform him that he will be responcible for court costs also due to his lack of payment to you.

[donniebrasco]

paint his house pink when he;s out. stick up a neon sign out the front... etc


did you have a contract, whats his reason for not paying, did you pay materials.etc

[gixxerboy1]

send him a certified demand letter. Demand payment but such a date or court papers will be filed.

Brake fluid on his car never hurts.

I like the lawyer idea the best...

[Primalinstinct]

Anything in Michigan under $3,500 is 'small claims court'. You file in the district he resides in. If money is owed in a business name, file in the district of the business. No lawyers are needed and no third parties are needed. He would have 21 days to respond before you go to court.

It's quite easy and is going on all day.

Good luck.

Ok, you know where he lives...wait outside his house until he comes home then ask him for the payment....maybe he is waiting on some money himself and just doesn't want to bullshit you, making excuses until he has the money...ask for partial payment or weekly payments

[Lexed]

will he kill you if you file a lawsuit or do you mean kill you in a fight if you go physical

[gixxerboy1]

go to his house with a scrapper and take the paint back

[taiboxa]

i'll get it for ya.

Link removed. Check your PMs.

legal action would be the smartest way to go but if all else fails scrape the paint off put brake fluid on his car then have taiboxa smash him

**** smash.. i just got a new nodachi this morning! (though it cost a lil to much to actually USE but it sure looks NEAT)

[Lexed]

seriously though if legal action dont work get some of your friends from the gym and let them take care of it. This punk ass bitch needs to learn a lesson and not one that can be taught in court.

[Second2None]

go to city hall a file for a meachincs lean on his home, is your contract verbale or written. I am a contractor,before you to go to court you have to for warn him on your actions its called 'notice to owner', this usally scares someone to pay you because if u lien his property he cant do shit with it till he pays you first, or has he had other work done that would require permits, like windows replaced or a bathroom remodeled lately is so call city code and report him its a 4500 dollar fine for getting caught doing a bathroom with no permit, better yet cut his water main with a saw zall it will tae 2 seconds

[Lexed]

but if he does that then he will deff not get his money back only after then do it

[donniebrasco]

next time he's away for the weekend or whatever. round up some homeless people, pay them and tell them that you will supply them with beer / food etc for as long as they squat.

[Lexed]

I feel so bad stv your such a good guy. sucks so bad I dont live around your area.

[gigem]

yeah bro pursue the legal avenue smashn his ass would be sweet but you wont get your much needed cash i hate punks like that

[Second2None]

sometimes u got to eat it, but it makes ya fell better knowin he ate more
**** him cut his line

[number twelve]

the small claims court thing sounds to be the most effective idea

[SVTMuscle*]

Ok maybe i should clarify things...sorry, lets just say, I did not physically paint his house.... lets say.. the way he owes me money, has no contract/legal binding paperwork... if you catch my drift

[Lexed]

not really lol

[Tock]

If reason fails, then about the only thing that comes to mind is intimidation. If that's not practical, then let him know you'll spread the word that he's a deadbeat. If that doesn't work, well, I think you're out of luck . . .

I think that will be a good idea, I know alot of people he knows because he goes to my gym...and if I explain to the gym how much of a deadbeat he is...they will take my side of things.

[JDawg1536]

Confront him at the gym next time you see him. And NEVER do business without money up front, you will get screwed.

[gigem]

yeah that make shit different im sure if you did a little free painting for some buddies it may work out as free advertisement dig?

[number twelve]

in that case you might be better off talking to some of the guys at your gym like you said

[gigem]

hell just hit his ass with a 45 while hes doin squats if that 45 dont get him the rest will now thats a plan

[Haro3]

personally i'd steal something valuable but thats just waht i do

[SVTMuscle*]

nah I cannot take it physically. he is in some biker gang, and knows where i live

Next time you "paint" someone's house take at least half down and half on completion. A better option is full payment in advance. If they really want the job done paying in advance shows their serious. That's how I used to handle freelance work. The ones that do not want to pay in advance are full of shit and trying to get over.

You could always have (the topic we can't talk about) mailed to his house and cut a hole in the package so the postal service and cops will see it. Hmm... what's this white stuff?

I know a guy who got scammed and he did this to the scammer. The scammer lived in Texas and he had a large amount of poorly packed ******* sent internationally to Texas. The pack of course got snagged by customs and LE showed up at his house.

[Doc.Sust]

smart move on his part
