Hunter in Colombia

[Aussie Greg]

If you find a good Colombian, its only a matter of time until they go bad, a bit like fruit !!!

Aussie G.

This holds the same for any Colombian and most gringos involved in such business. For the Colombians, There is simply too much money involved and the temptation is too great.


Catire is 100% correct . This is not just limited to Colombia, you should see the scams, double-pricing, bait and switch tactics in Costa Rica...... makes the whole apartment war look small... Do any of you guys want to buy into a teak farm? Boy you will double your money within 3 years, no problema, go see the guy sitting at the bar at the Blue Marlin, or better yet put $ 10000 into the brothers bank in Mall san pedro, I am telling you you will get 3% per month!!!!!, or an extra 3% , if you do not withdraw you money during the year. Of course the so called bank is an illegal bank, the brothers dissapear " Que paso?, no mas dinero......

whatever mis/dis "strategy" Surfer chose to employ on any private board, was something that he embarked on himself, rather than have that be the stated policy or strategy of those boards. This is an important distinction but you seem to be linking the actions of Surfer with those of the administrators of those sites and you shouldn't. Also, to the best of my knowledge, you were never banned from those sites either. You apparently left of your volition as is your right.

that said, my close friends (some of whom are also your friends) have privately confirmed to me that the Surfer "Dicky Doo Theorem" has turned out to be devastatingly correct, especially so in the major Dicky destination cities of Cartagena and to lesser extents, Medellin and Cali.

This wasn't a great discovery by Surfer, as any analysis of any such situation around the world is similar. More tourists and more publicity (especially on sites such as this one) mean more idiots by sheer numbers alone AND it also means the idiots start becoming a greater percentage of the whole. The model is infallible and with plenty of historical examples to support it.

If you had a stated disagreement with whatever he posted anywhere, you always had the prerogative to challenge it anywhere as well.

as to the Mery controversy, I'm surprised something didn't happen sooner and always strongly doubted the "Mery is an angel" dictums heard on various boards. This holds the same for any Colombian and most gringos involved in such business. For the Colombians, There is simply too much money involved and the temptation is too great.

I trust all appt renters, much less agents, that are involved in marketing to tourists about as far as I could throw them.

with one hand.

I don’t give money to charity, so it would be hard for me to brag about giving any money to charity, but sometimes people like yourself try to imply that I am making a lot of money for my high living lifestyle.

So I reply to them as I am here, you are part correct in what you say, I invest approx 7 times the profits that the rental business in Cartagena makes in a non profit making organisation, this organisation is related to environmental activities in Colombia. The Colombian government and the United Nations have given money to the main project my Corporation plans on doing four years ago, this project needs 4-5 years depending on the weather to give basic results for us to decide what is best way to proceed, at the moment I am busy creating a income stream for the Corporation, while I await those results, over the intervening years I have played around with a couple of other minor environmental related projects, as 4-5 years is a long wait. Again most of this is easily proved.

Apart from the last month, where I took all the dollars off Mery, as I didn’t want her exchanging them for reasons stated before. I only received money on one occasion from Mery, that was when I was short of Pesos and needed to go and buy some furniture for a new apartment coming on line, so it was hardly for me. Obviously I could be making that up, BUT as you keep on talking about Merys ledger, any left over money each month, went to others connected to enlarging the Corporations income stream or one of the above mentioned minor environmental projects and each person had to sign for the money, myself included, the amounts, dates, signatures etc are in Merys ledger.

Don’t worry about the evidence being filed etc., recovery of my stolen money is in hand, as you claim to be a lawyer, you will know that the legal system takes a while, for obvious reasons I will not go into detail here.

Juan Ventura (plus other rental agencies) has been around all the time that I had my apartments with Mery, for nearly 3 years, yet please point out any posts where I have bad mouthed him or his business or any other rental businesses there apart from our mutual friend mentioned in the last few posts, I have no interest in destroying his or anybody else’s business, as they haven’t stolen any money off me.

In fact if you check on this websites or others, I nearly always recommend Juan Ventura apartments along with whoever is renting mine when people ask for apartment recommendations in the Laguito/Bocogrande area, as he also rents good quality apartments, is honest as far as we can know anybody is and speaks English.

Mery has no problem finding people to defend her, she has you, who is doing a great job of bringing to peoples attention what is going on.

Unless you post something else that is really worth reply to, I will call it a day on commenting to you, as you are not bringing forward any information with regards to Mery.

Ok Aussie, bring a couple of your airport girls with you to CTG for this Title bout, set up a booth to promote the mansion. Better clear it with Tony the tout first, for does have exclusive concessional and on site promotional rights. Ok, got to go, I need to call Larry merchant and Jim Lampley to call the fight for HBO deportes.

[Aussie Greg]

This is getting even better. let's move the bout to the beach behind the Cartagena Hilton, schedule during Miss Colombia. Hunter will wear the white top with the white shorts, with the red stripe, Surfer will wear the red top, with the letters C.C.C.P in yellow, red shorts, with the yellow stripe and the hammer and sickle emblem on the shorts. We will have a ten round, no knockdown ruled fight. 12 oz. Gloves. 3 minute rounds. Ring Girls should be Angie the blond from LDV, who has cracked more nuts than a squirrel, and Paola the streetgirl that works with Tony the Tout, whom has seen more c*** than a stadium urinal, will be the other ring Girl. Of course Tony the Tout reserves the right to all concessionary sales. Date and time to be announced soon...............

Will write again tommorrow, maybe.

That proves it, Hunter is gay, and he's got the hots for Surfer!

No comment otherwise, I'm eternally indebted to Mery for helping me out when I was sick, and she's a friend, so will continue to rent from her. And Hunter and Surfer both rank in the top 10 of "people who I'd like to share a beer with someday even though I don't want to f*** them." So I don't think I'll step in the middle of this one.

[Hunter]

You are correct, the weekend is here and I am off out with 3 girls, or maybe boys dressed as girls in others eyes, but they look pretty dam feminine to me and would prefer to communicate with them than Surfer, so I will post today and call it a day for a couple or days or longer on this subject hopefully, depending on our friend Surfer, these are rather long winded posts I am making as I am normally only used to writing a few lines.

[Hunter]

Who will referee?

You of course.

Hunter

I know that you are enjoying this. Hell, I have even enjoyed taking a jab at the Surf in the past. But you should not get into a battle of wits with an unarmed person. Surfer's world is quite different.

[Surfer]

if drawing Hunter's fire gives Mery a respite from the Inquisition then it is a small price to pay. How ironic that Hunter used to brag about how his "company" donated 100% of its rental profits to charity (RIGHT!), while the lady whose livlihood he seeks to destroy has a special needs daughter (Sally) in her 20s who has no one else in the World. SAlly will be in extreme economic distress if Hunter succeeds in his nefarious scheme to drive her mother out of the CTG apartment biz.

Hunter, if you have all this damning evidence of theft by Mery, then why have you not filed a denuncia with the fisicalia? Certainly they would not take kindly to her fleecing a foreign investor. Fear of being charged for filing a false police report perhaps?????

Juan Ventura better watch his backside because once Mery has been vanquished you can bet who the next target of his anti competitive machinations will be.

Yikes, I better quit now as he (with the assistance of his moles) is keeping a cyber dossier on me (old habits die hard eh?)

Mery should really come on here and defend herself but she is not the type of woman to be posting on mongering websites LOL

[MJG Dogs]

We need a good promoter for this potential brawl. Where in CTG do we hold the bout? When? Do we get the ring girls from LDV, or from a Casa? Will Loco gringo cater the bout? Who will referee?

[Hunter]

I thought it had ended Surfer but you continue with your rants.

What you mean with regards to researching your old threads is that you don’t want things pointed out to others (or yourself) what you have said in the past. After your first rant against me on the other board a couple of years ago, I copy and paste most things that you say into a folder, also other people cut and paste from other websites and send me the threads if my handle comes up, as one needs to be prepared, as one doesn’t know when next you will start a rant.

I have no minions as I can quite happily look after myself, as to the post of the other thread being edited, I wonder who did that you or the owner of the other site, on a cover up mission yet again.

Regarding the two vendor problems, you yourself said that you were involved in the first and myself, a few posts down, you are presently involved in the second on this thread, so that is a bit hard to deny, so is WE not correct?

Regarding pricings I NEVER set the prices Mery did.

I ONLY sent the other owners the spreadsheet bill with then money that I will be recovering from Mery (with a note that I was happy with most of the numbers, but not all, so some of the numbers could change, plus if I can prove other things she has done) and the list of what I had proven, which I also posted here, the actual information comes in at approx 80 A4 sheets, plus a lot of witnesses, a couple of dozen e-mails, the ledger is just one part, as he never came to check on this information, for his own reasons he can’t actually comment on them can he, others who have seen them have commented on them though.

If the other website owner wish to carry on using a thief, that’s up to him, he is a fool, time will probably prove me correct on that front, I suspect.

Gay is gay, I shall repeat what I said before, if you wish to call me gay I will happily meet you outside the Loco Gringo, is that more or less what I said before, if you see that as a huge threat, it proves what a sheltered life you have led.

I can bring the proof at the same time, also the witnesses, as they can then witness something else if you have a mind to.

Nobody has claimed Colombia is 100% safe, or not dangerous, in fact I have just posted that on the Cali thread. BUT yes you were planning a conspiracy, a grand one, I think not, maybe in your mind, but nobody elses.

Any more questions, feel free to ask, as I enjoy replying to you?

Will write again tommorrow, maybe.

Love

Hunter

as i said, jackson was wise to confine this waste of bandwidth here (where few will read it). i do not want to exacerbate this waste of bandwidth by responding, but the january 10 post of mine on the other board has been edited by somebody (unlike hunter and his mionions, i really do not care to waste the time to research who posted what when etc.) and i need to mention some of the obfurep001ion going on here:

hunter wrote:
i personely see very little disparaging going on amongst the various vendors, in fact only two times really, which we have both been invloved in.

i was never involved in any of it (so cut the "we" bit) as i could give a rat's ass about the apartment rental business in laguito. even when you used to call me "cheap" on the boards, because i had friends who let me use their apartments there for free, i never mentioned how you were notorious for overcharging newbies (because i really did not care).

i will say that those who have seen the alleged "smoking gun" against mery, the ledger (hunter's email and attachment was forwarded to me) said it proved no "theft" and that person still uses mery for all his apartments indicating that he still trusts her!

also, i never said hunter was gay (i said that i suspect he is a switch hitter, and living in sf one's "gaydar" gets very sensitive to such things, and many who have met him and followed his posts over the years would also wonder imho.).

i find it ironic that tom posted in medellin thread about how taking a taxi from the airport was too dangerous, and i responded saying i had never heard of a problem and questioning his motivation for posting that alarmist claim, yet hunter accuses me of being the mastermind of a grand conspiracy to post false stories about the security risks in colombia to keep people away???? too rich.

finally, mjdogs can blame san francisco for all that is wrong in the world, and hunter can blame mery (and me), but at least now the cartagena thread can get back to its intended purpose.
