NO DEAL!!! (Fifth anniversary edition)

"Someday we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny"

- Bruce Springsteen

Hard to believe, but it's been five years since Casey originated the innovative "NO DEAL!" maneuver in contract negotiations.

Reading through that original post, we are struck with how empty it all seems now. At the time it was so bizarre that it had us laughing out loud at the office as we read through the post and the hundreds of comments that followed. Today, jaded by the five years of Casey's ongoing insanity, we still find it amusing, but it's hardly as funny.

Still, it's nice to read through and see comments by some of our old friends like Stephanie J, ratlab, Ogg the Caveman and others who made the blog so interesting way back when.

It's also been interesting to do some research into the whereabouts of the three parties to the NoDeal-dom:

Casey, of course, we know all too much about. He's hiding out, presumably at his parents' new shithole in Antelope, just outside Sacremento. He doesn't appear to have any internet access or at the very least has been maintaining a low profile. The other events of the past five years of his life have been thoroughly documented and we won't bother to list them here.

Joy O'Day pretty much disappeared. An online search suggests that she went back into the real estate biz. There is one YouTube video of a house that she was apparently trying to sell back in 2009 that lists her phone number. And if the music to go along with that video don't make you want to kill something, then you're a far better person than us.

We also turned up this wonder of a video, purporting to promote something called strengthengine.com, which is a website selling something related to fitness. It's not really clear what it's selling, but there is a one-week free trial if anybody wants to sign up and find out. We don't care to provide Joy and her associates with so much as a throwaway email address.

Also, Joy's personal website is nothing more than a generic Arizona MLS search page, with the addition of a picture of a really hot woman who is clearly not Joy. The LLC that did business with Casey -- Tao Realty -- no longer appears to exist.

Erin Morgan, aka "prlinkbiz" has also disappeared off the face of the earth. We wouldn't be shocked if she switched back to her maiden name, or maybe remarried just to get away from the name she had. Because the happy truth is that the name "Erin Morgan" is completely trashed. Virtually everything you can pull up about her in a search is Casey-related, including lots of embarrassing photos, critical Caseypedia articles, nasty comments on EN, etc.

The website she had managed for Robert Kiyosaki, WorkingForRichDad, went dormant some time back. The other website she managed for Kiyosucki's wife, RichWoman.com, has been folded into the greater Kiyosaki empire and no longer has unique content of its own. Erin's previous association with those sleazeballs presumably ended some time back.

There was a No Limits Ladies website for a while, run by the third NLL, Kimber Chin. It no longer exists and instead forwards to Chin's freephotooftheday website. It is unclear why this one exists at all. Chin, like Casey, has also tried her hand at writing really bad e-books, the design of which could be mistaken for Marty Stewart's handiwork. Some believe that Chin is the woman who was photographed in some rather compromising situations with Erin. We aren't sure, but are reproducing one of these photos here, just in case you haven't seen it. Because we like publishing photos of Erin acting stupid.

It is this third and usually unmentioned NLL, the one who was not part of the NO DEAL with Casey, who remains visible. Perhaps that's fitting, as everybody else who has ever had anything to do with Casey has either voluntarily or involuntarily removed themselves from the internet. (OK, except for Nigel.)

At this point, the NO DEAL is irrelevant. Whatever story Casey may have had to sell five years ago is no longer worth much to him or to anybody who may think they have a claim on it. If a movie were to be made or a book written, it could be done easily using the vast quantity of public information available and without involving Casey at all. Realistically, that's not going to happen. What appeared at the time to be a hysterically funny comedy of errors worthy of treatment, is more rightly seen today as the opening act to ongoing national tragedy. Someday we may look back on this and it may seem funny again, but that day is probably far, far off in the future.

The validity of the "No Deal!" legal maneuver has yet to be tested in any court.

And that's the way things are at the mobile FC headquarters, which is currently buried in the snow.

Christmas. Again.

Casey's not a millionaire. Again.

We haven't been saying much lately, because there's not much to be said. However, this milestone is worth commemorating every year.

And that's the way it is here by the beach where it's 72 degrees and sunny, with not a sign of snow, unlike the scene at the former Serin Residence. (Courtesy of our good friend WeWantTheFunk.)

Circling the Wagons?

Neighborhood Dot reports on CI this morning that the Serins seem not to be out completely. The cars are still there, as is Steve's motorcycle. However, the Miata convertible that some haterz believe to be Steve's is no in the driveway up on jacks, with bricks to block the thing from rolling. The motorcycle blocks access towards the front of the house. The Nissan blocks the side.

Seems that they are circling wagons and trying to make it difficult to remove them, or even to approach. How this is going to help against an armed Sheriff's deputy (who knows, maybe even AngelTits' husband???) handing them an eviction notice and telling them they have 24 hours is unclear.

In the meantime, Casey has followed up on the removal of the Island2012 website by removing the serin.us website as well. In the past it was a redirect from his Iamfightingforeclosure (IAFF2) site. All the content, including a classic "bankruptcy is beautiful" post, is now gone. Perhaps a response to the fact that he fought foreclosure and apparently lost.

But none of this should be a surprise. In the past, Casey's standard mode of operation has been to have a lame idea, throw up a website promoting it, dick around for months by going off on ridiculous tangents like trying to avoid foreclosure by drinking fresh juice or cleansing his colon, then realize at the last minute that a wave was crashing in on him, skip town, and quietly remove any of the websites, pictures and other evidence from the web, while whining about needing privacy. Once again, he found a lame idea (mortgage elimination/foreclosure avoidance), tried to portray himself as an expert, failed miserably, and is slinking away.

The difference, this time, is that his lame idea has cost his family their house. They could have kept it, had they not failed to follow through on the terms of their bankruptcy. Now they have both a bankruptcy and a foreclosure on their credit records, and if they aren't out of there fast, they may yet have an eviction recorded against them soon enough. That latter one will make it virtually impossible for them to ever rent a place.

Perhaps Casey isn't going to be the first of the Serins to live in a van by the river?

And that's the way it is here at FalseCasey HQ, where the sun is shining bright.

We Won! We Won!

Not to rain on the parade following this week's foreclosure sale and the events that have followed, but though all the celebration amongst haterz™ today, we're reminded of Chris Rock's reaction after OJ was acquitted and thousands of African Americans chose to celebrate in the streets, shouting "we won!"

"What did we win?"

As reported on CI this morning by "neighborhood dot," it seems that the rented Budget truck was outside along with an SUV, dad's pickup and -- inexplicably -- a couple of convertibles.

Yes, the Serin Crime Family have been evicted from their home. Casey bears much of the blame for that, both by convincing his parent's to guarantee much of his recent debt, and then by convincing him to follow all his "mortgage elimination" crap, file multiple bankruptcies, try to transfer the house into his name, and engage in all sorts of other actions of dubious benefit and questionable legality. It must be remembered that when they first filed for bankruptcy, the parents were offered a pretty sweet Chapter 13 repayment plan that wiped out all the rest of their debt, left them in the house and set them up with a monthly payment that their salaries could afford, especially if they had some contribution from Steve. But they couldn't bother with that. They continued to not pay, to sit in the house, and to file again, and again, and again.

We were convinced they would file again to delay things further. After all, the parents filed. Then mom filed independently, and subsequently the interest in the property was (illegally) transfered to Casey who filed chapter 7 himself. It seemed that Papa Serin could still file on his own to delay one more time, but for whatever reason he failed to. Maybe he was just fed up. Maybe Casey was bored. Or maybe the odd dismissal of Casey's bankruptcy for reasons unknown put them on warning that there were possible consequences to the continuing fraud.

In fact, we have to wonder if the odd dismissal of Casey's bankruptcy also explains his sudden disappearance, apparently to live in a Jamaican shithole as we mentioned earlier this week.

And that brings us back to the question: "What did we win?"

We're not sure.

Certainly, there is some pleasure in seeing the Serins punished for their apparently endless support of their son long beyond the point where it was obvious to everybody with a brain that his activities were at the very least questionable, if not actually illegal. And it's hard to find a problem with kicking them out after they troubled the bankruptcy trustee to come up with an equitable settlement, then failed to make a single payment.

But through this all, Casey was still not punished. The haterz™ may have won a small battle, but we haven't really won.

Casey, as far as we know from his Facebook posts, remains a free man-boi in Jamaica. He hasn't been forced to admit his failure, or to be punished for it. True, he's living in a shithole while masquerading as being an island entrepreneur and has no home to come back to. He may be forced to become a drug mule to escape and his life is likely to remain miserable by any normal standard. But as we've often noted, he doesn't live by normal standards. He's gone to Jamaica without paying for it and the haterz™ have not, therefore he's superior in his mind and will continue to be so.

That ends up being the most frustrating thing about this saga. It's hard to declare victory over somebody who can't acknowledge how pathetic and miserable he's become. We may have won. By any normal standard, we won long ago, but somehow Casey isn't defeated. We await that.

And that's the way things are here at FalseCasey HQ, where we can't be foreclosed on because we don't own the place and we pay the rent every month.

I Am Fighting Foreclosure???

He's baaaaaack!

http://www.iamfightingforeclosure.com

Our friend BTC has summed this up quite adroitly, and we have little to add:

The premise is completely untrue, which is 80-90% of the problem with everything since IAFF. IAFF was true in it's basic premise: he WAS facing foreclosure. Avoiding it, managing it stupidly, turning it into a silly game that gutted him, but unquestionably FACING it on multiple properties. How it all worked out was what kept people glued to it.

Foreclosure Help Book provided neither help nor a book. Escape My House had nothing to do with escaping any houses as he had none. Able Buyer is not able to buy anything. I Survived Foreclosure was true only in the very limited sense that Casey remained alive through the process. Millionaire By Christmas had nothing to do with becoming a millionaire, neither by Christmas nor any other time. My Foreclosure Story had no story to tell. Mortgage Elimination Man eliminated no mortgages and it's questionable whether the word "man" should apply to Casey in the first place. TrueCasey was anything but true. Island2012 has no island and no plan for getting one by 2012, or for that matter 2112.

Following in this grand tradition, I Am Fighting Foreclosure will not involve any kind of fighting, because that suggests actually doing something, which sounds suspiciously like work. We know what Casey thinks about that.

Difficult to disagree with that.

And that's the way things are here at FalseCasey HQ, where we're wondering if there'll ever be a summer.

It's Casey's Fault!!!

And he admits it. In a way, but not really.

First, we're sorry to have been offline thorough much hilarity. We will attempt to look back and comment on some of what's transpired recently as we have the opportunity. Sadly, a grim family duty has been distracting us from commenting and at times even following things recently. Fortunately we are now, as Casey might say it, "back in the game."

We were immediately drawn to the minor discourse between himself and "Mike Gambino" on his "Casey Serin Daily Miracles" Facebook page. We'll dispense with the fact that Mike Gambino appears to be a tard, but instead focus on the good stuff.

Mike notes that:

"It's easy to decide we are victims of something else in the world, a lot tougher to take responsibility and be free of victimhood."

Casey responds that:

"This course teaches you to take responsibility for EVERYTHING that you perceive. The good, the bad and the ugly. Everything in my life is my fault! haha. Love it."

We find the subtle difference between the two somewhat illuminating as to what is or isn't going on in the mind of our boi wonder (or should that be "wondering boi?")

Mike speaks of "taking responsibility" which we think most intelligent readers would presume to be somehow related not only to assigning blame, but also to accepting the consequences and dealing with them. Casey wants to merely state that the blame is his, then having done this to move on and forget about it, because after all he's going to find some miracles to make things right or maybe not even make things right at all, because that's really not his problem.

And that's the way things are back here at FalseCasey HQ, where two months later there's still not much new in the Caseyverse.

It's a Bird... It's a Plane... It's... Mortgage Elimination Man!

Yes, it's Mortgatge Elimination Man! Strange visitor from a third world shithole who came to Sacramento with powers and abilities of loosing houses far greater than those of mortal men! Mortgage Elimination Man, who can wreck the value of anything he touches, bend (and sometimes break) contracts with his bare hands, and who, disguised as Casey Serin, mild-mannered occasional valet-parker for a semi-great Sacramento restaurant, fights a never-ending battle for scams, injustice and turning America into third-world nation.

And now, another exciting episode in the Adventures of Mortgage Elimination Man!

YES. He's Baaaaaack!

And by the look of things, he's now restyled himself as "Mortgage Elimination Man," more than likely hoping to sell some of the otherwise freely-available "advice" about Mortgage Elimination, a scam that apparently begins from the presumption that money is not real, therefore the mortgage never really existed, therefore, it can just be eliminated. We're not sure what the proponents of this system propose to do about returning the house to the original owner from whom it was purchased with money that isn't real, but that's the kind of question that only details guys like us would ever be concerned about. (In fact of the matter, we wouldn't be concerned because we'd never let ourselves get into that situation in the first place.)

According to posts forwarded to us primarily from his Facebook Wall (to which we have no access), he seems to be:

1. Involved with Aaron Krowne, the current owner of the old IAFF site, and a true nutcase.
2. Still interested in pursuing the Island idea, and apparently has one supporter who has similar goals. Funding pending.
3. "Couch surfing" around Sacraemento, which we take to mean that he's not welcome at home, or at least not on terms that are acceptable to him.

There is also some evidence that he is planning to provide advice based on a "produce the note" strategy that has worked at times. If that's his plan, we have some bad news for him: First, most lenders have gotten much better about getting their ducks in a row, especially given the long current lead-times to foreclosure. Second many courts are denying that defense when it's clear that the problem is only a technical one, not a real question of note ownership. Third, and most important, we're moving to a new phase of the foreclosure crisis. When Casey lost his houses, the problem was in subprime. These were mostly crap loans given to crap buyers for crap houses and often the paperwork was crap. Today's foreclosures are much more focused on the prime interest-only or option-ARM loans that were typically better done, typically during a less frentic period in the market and were less likely to have been securitized, sold or reassigned, meaning the paperwork is in better shape. Finally, the word on this strategy is out there. Nobody needs to pay a lazy bum like Casey to "help" them with it.

But really, Casey's strategy is always the same, to the point where it's kind of boring:

1. Make fool of self on blog
2. ???????
3. Riches and fame

Casey just hasn't figured out the second step yet.

We note that "mortgageeliminationman.com" has recently been registered.
[Note: within a few hours of our observation the site came live. Casey is still an idiot.]

We also note that morgtageeliminationman.blogspot.com and mortgageelimnationman.blogspot.com have been taken, the latter and maybe both apparently by Haterz™. The Haterz™ blogs, of course, are sure to be more entertaining than the real thing.

And that's the breaking news from FalseCasey HQ, where things are otherwise quiet on a Friday night.

Casa de-Serin Auction Tomorrow?

Somebody posting on Walrus's blog mentioned that the auction for the Serin castle will take place tomorrow. We have not been able to confirm this, but apparently the requirement to post a notice doesn't extend to the requirement that it be posted in a place that is internet-accessible. The only way to get such information seems to be to subscribe to a real-estate listing service, and we're not really willing to spend that kind of money just to find out.

Anybody in Sacramento willing to take a trip to the courthouse steps tomorrow to check it out and report for us?

We suspect that the auction won't actually happen. If the Serin's have a brain among them (which, we guess, they may not) and if they've managed to avoid any advice from their malignant son, they will file for bankruptcy immediately before the auction and hold off the proceedings. In foreclosure capitals like Sacramento that's taking more than a year to work through the system these days.

And that's the way things are at FalseCasey HQ, where not much is going on.

MyParentsAreFacingForeclosure.com

It looks like the end is near for the Serin family's property-owning days. According to the Sacramento Court records, the Notice of Default on their property has been changed to a Notice of Trustee Sale. This typically means that sometime in the next month the guy in the funny hat outside the courthouse will auction off the Serin home, just as he did with one of Casey's properties way back when.

We're not sure what Casey will do then. There has been very little leaking out about this and his Facebook wall has been invisible for some time. There was some discussion in some circles about the fact that Casey's debt was at least 10% of his parents' obligation, and while there's no real corroborating evidence, that seems about right to us. How it might be impacted by a parental bankruptcy is unclear.

Prior to going blank on Facebook, Casey also alluded to possibly traveling and leaving the country for a while. He was discussing WWOOFing as one possibility of getting to the island of his dreams, and also mentioned something about some guy with big plans for an island resort in Fiji who was going to hire him into a great "opportunity." It's unclear if any of this came together.

What is clear is that the Serin parents will be renters for a long time to come, probably in a more modest home which won't have space for a moocher in his own bedroom. Casey's future looks like it'll involve sleeping on the sofa in some 2-bedroom condo where his parents and younger sister each get a room and he gets told that he can have his own space when he gets a job and pays for it.

For Casey this will be a major disaster. Sleeping on the sofa will mean rising at a normal hour with the rest of the family. It'll mean no late-nite blogging and Facebooking. It'll mean no getting high and acting stupid. And it's now winter, so sleeping in his vansion in the inaccessible snow-covered foothills will no longer be an option.

It sucks to be Casey's family in the best of times. While we have our quibbles with the way they've handled the boi, we do wish them well through their hard times. It sucks even more to be Casey though, but at this point we find it difficult to wish him anything but the roughest of times as he has clearly earned them.

Finally, we wonder how Casey missed the opportunity to start a blog about all this?

And that's the way things are at FalseCasey HQ, where we're late but had to stick around long enough to pass this news along.

Breaking News: Casey Goes Dark (again)

Not sure what this means, but Casey's Facebook account has gone dark. His picture is missing and there have been no public updates.

We are not sure what this means, but prior experience indicates several possibilities:

1) He's pissed off at all the "negativity"

2) He's pissed somebody off and is trying trying to impress them with his ability to go offline.

3) Family have told him "go offline or move out."

In any event, it is extremely unlikely that he'll stay away for long.

And that's the way things are at the FalseCasey HQ, where we are thinking we should really get a new vehicle this month rather than next, while the sales tax is still deductible.

Casey Gets Closure

Thanks to some Facebook sleuthing by one of our former acquaintences, we have become aware of Casey's recent desire to have some sort of "closure" with his ex-wife Galina.

You will of course recall that Casey's wife locked him out of their home rented bedrooms in her sister's place when he decided that taking a trip to Australia on about an hour's notice and leaving her penniless with bills to pay was a good idea. After that kind of debacle, most people would have presumed that all roads back were closed and that closure was complete, whether you liked it or not.


But not our boi.


Casey has desperately continued to wear his wedding ring, "the ring of hope" he has called it (the Haterz™ have termed it "the ring of fail™") thus clearly tagging himself as hopelessly hung up and thus unattractive to anybody else who might come along. He's commented repeatedly about getting "the one" back. He started the stupid Millionaire By Christmas blog, which from its very inception seemed designed around the idea of finally making good and thus winning Galina back, as if she were somehow paying attention to his blogs anymore. He blamed his divorce on outsiders "meddling" as rationalization for having been a jerk and then continued to dream that once the outsiders were gone, he could have another chance.


But lately things have changed. It's not clear what's prompted this, but Casey has been talking about moving on and achieving the desired "closure," about two years late. In fact, it made the top of his Christmas Fantasies List for the month. We have an inkling that there may be some other female lurking in the background and that the "closure" was perhaps a result of Casey realizing that there is more than one stupid gullible victim interested girl out there and that his continued pining for somebody who is obviously gone was perhaps not the biggest turn-on for somebody new.


This photo featuring the ring of fail is adeptly photographed on-location at the West Sacramento Ikea store, for reasons we have yet to understand, and is published with some commentary suggesting that a meeting took place with somebody over lunch at the store, leading to final closure:

... closure received. It is FINAL.

... there is a very profound meaning to all of the symbolism depicted. The time has come. I am moving on. Just like that.

... I am just so glad I did not allow anuone to pressure me into moving on before I was ready. I stood my ground, did a good amount of grieving and healing, kept holding on just in case, did everything I felt led to do, kept the door open for a possible reconciliation up untill the last moment. Well the time has come. The meeting over delicious Swedish meatballs at Ikea provided the final confirmation.

However, before moving on, Casey does have the opportunity to remind us what an artistic genius he is as well, and how great the future is for him. We find him continually tough to stomach:

... I would please ask my friends to be gentle with this area. I guess it IS all ultimately pretty funny but the wound is still healing. Thank u. This is the month to tie up all the loose ends and 2010??? I have NNNOOO IDEA what is coming next! The excitement and anticipation is becoming more intense with each day this month of December 2009

... some pieces of art and personal expression need not an explanation nor reason. Only it's creator knows and feels the meaning.

... I already AM an artist as I creatively live my life and express it through all kinds of ways -- from crafting business ventures to playfully blogging my lifestory, capturing the right moment via video/photography, etc. In which way do you express your creative artistic side?

We also can't quite understand the significance of Ikea in all this, though Casey does note that there is great significance to this photo. Did he and Galina buy some important piece of furniture there? Did they love the Swedish meatballs? Does she work there and he stalked her in order to have the conversation? Did he even meet with her, or was it a meeting with Galina's anonymous representative? Very confusing, even to those of us who have watched Casey for a while.

It should be noted that Casey went to great lengths to make this photo as it is. We have obtained the satellite imagery of the West Sacramento Ikea store:

The entrance to the store is in the upper right and that is where most cars are parked. The sign is in the lower left adjacent to the lot that is furthest from the entrance, closest to the loading dock and probably used only by employees or maybe people living inconspicuously in their vans.

To get the photo, Casey would have needed to be somewhere in the red circle adjacent to the sign, as shown in this image. Not a place most people would be, and unless you worked in the store probably not even an area you would normally be particularly aware of. Casey of course has had his reasons for seeking out inconspicuous parking lots in the past year, but we seriously doubt he took this photo there because that's where he's been sleeping.

Casey thinks he's being all cool and artistic and stuff for hiding stupid meanings in bad photographs. We still think he's a jerk, though obviously now a jerk who has achieved closure. Someday maybe he'll achieve a 10 year-old's maturity level.

And that's the way things are here at FalseCasey HQ, where we are hung over.

Casey's Christmas Fantasies

We'd like to call these "wishes," as that would be more in the spirit of things, but really these are so absurd that even Walt Disney on acid would not have been able to come up with them.

In fact, even Casey can't seem to decide what they are. They started as "December Objectives" then "Christmas Wishes" and finally simply "For Christmas." As he notes below, tweaking is continuous but this is the latest snapshot forwarded to us by a fan:

Here is my Christmas wish list.

Just keep in mind, there may be some tweaking and refining, as I play with just the best words to use:

1. Closure/Reconciliation in a Key Emotional Area

2. Very Substantial, Pleasantly Unexpected, Perfectly Timed Financial Blessing

3. Confidence/Wisdom in New Leadership Roles

So there you have it. It's generic enough to prevent being too open/vulnerable, yet I know exactly what i'm referring to. And you might too.

The seeds for all this have been planted a while ago, and it's all now beginning to "sprout". That's why I've been more and more excited lately.

"Your Wish is My Command" -- through LOVE, Prayer and Gratitude.

Knowing I'm encouraged to ask whatever I want and most importantly, give thanks before it even comes, moves me into alignment towards the wanted outcome, and brings it into reality.

Thank You!

== DISCLAIMER==

Sorry if the way I talk about all of this is a bit... um, weird.

It is really nothing new. I've been instructed in this my whole life. I'm just now expanding my horizons a little bit and playing with new labels/words -- more generic, less loaded, more inclusive -- to see how it comes across. I'm taking a risk, here amongst my friends! I hope you understand me!?

Does any of this resonate with you??

Only if you FEEL it, please DO share and amplify.

Otherwise please remain silent and keep your LOLs to yourself. I'm just like a child in a world of fantasy and endless possibilities, playing with these ideas and having some fun. Please refrain from projecting your own doubt and limited perspective. I don't want it. I'm Sorry.

Also, please Forgive Me for offending you in any way through the way I describe things. Please take this as an opportunity to seek a closer relationship so we can compare notes and see any areas of disagreement and find common ground.

Wow, what a crazy/beautiful life this is!

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Much love,

~ Casey Konstantin Serin

ANALYSIS

We will dissect this statement for our readers who may be less familiar with Mr. Serin and his words than we are:

Closure/Reconciliation in a Key Emotional Area

OK, we all know what this one is about. He wants his ex-wife Galina to come back to him. This will allow him to close the book on that nasty divorce thing and and reconcile with her. What he doesn't realize is that he's already got closure, in the sense that she has permanently closed the door to him ever speaking to her again. The only reconciliation yet to come is him reconciling himself to the fact that at this very moment she is writhing in an ecstacy she couldn't have ever imagined when she was with Casey, with some dude's tongue probing into areas Casey never could have imagined existing.

Very Substantial, Pleasantly Unexpected, Perfectly Timed Financial Blessing

This one sounds a lot like the Spanish Inquisition: Unexpected, except by those who have been watching for it.

It's one of the stupider examples of Casey's belief in things "manifesting" themselves just because he daydreams about them, which is what he's taken from "The Secret" and other similar garbage best-sellers. [A more appropriate lesson might be that if you really want something bad enough, you'll be willing to work your ass off to get it, and thus the real secret is to dedicate yourself to those things that you really, really want.]

And for the record, the next California Lotto jackpot is $36 million and we're going to buy in because one of us is Jewish and we're superstitious about multiples of 18. We expect that we have just as good odds of our $36m "manifesting itself" as Casey does with his wishes fantasies. In fact, we have better odds because we're going to buy $18 worth of tickets and Casey can't afford that many.

Incidentally, if wishing for something could miraculously cause it to manifest itself, then the hundreds of people who have been wishing for you to be in FPMITA Prison should have caused something to be manifested by now, don't you think?

Confidence/Wisdom in New Leadership Roles

Dude, last we heard you were scrubbing dishes or something like that. You don't have a leadership role except in your own mind as leader of a nonexistent group that is daydreaming about raising nonexistent dollars to buy you a nonexistent tropical island.

Further stupid comments and useless fluff

Only if you FEEL it, please DO share and amplify. - Ugh. More of his BS. Talk to me if you agree with me. Unfortuantely, he's lost any grasp on reality, so there's nobody to talk to him except for a few crazy people who have befriended him, pretty much all of whom appear to be complete trolls. Seriously, why would any of these hot women waste an instant of time with him except to entertain herself during those rare periods when nobody is vying to get under her desk to do her bidding. The only thing that's more phony than his "friends" is his own stupid act.

I'm just like a child in a world of fantasy and endless possibilities, playing with these ideas and having some fun. Please refrain from projecting your own doubt and limited perspective. I don't want it. - No, you're just like a really, really, lame, balding almost-30 guy who scrubs dishes and takes out the trash for a living, has no skills, no perspective, and no desire to hear that everything that he's pursued for his adult life has been a complete lie.

Please take this as an opportunity to seek a closer relationship so we can compare notes and see any areas of disagreement and find common ground. - So if we disagree with you we're supposed to seek a closer relationship and compare notes? We thought you just said that if we disagreed with you we should shut up. Which is it? We're confused.

Thank you in advance for your feedback. - OK. We think you're a moron. And you're welcome.

Buying an Island

Sorry for the recent absence. A family emergency has left one of us unavailable and, well, sometimes you just gotta work to pay the bills, a lesson that maybe Casey can learn.

In any case, not much has happened. The island floated along, then went underground (underwater?) for a few days, then re-emerged with no sponsors and new claims of success.

Casey says he's now in the top page of results for the phrase "Buying an Island." He considers this a great SEO success. We suspect that, given the challenge, Caseypedia is likely to surpass him rather quickly.

Buying an Island, see it now.

And that's the way it is at FalseCasey HQ, where it is raining hard

So Casey wants to sue us?

Go ahead fucker, make our day!

You see, we have analyzed the coverage provided by that Pre-payed Leagle scam that you have bought into, and it doesn't cover filing lawsuits.

In fact, the coverage provided in California as part of the self-employed business plan that you said you got, is detailed here: https://www.prepaidlegal.com/Multisite/JSP/corp/corpplan.jsp?region=CA&plan=LPSE#bottom

Preventive Legal Services for your business

• Talk to a Lawyer when you need assistance on business legal issues. You'll receive telephone consultations on an unlimited number of matters for business questions.
• A maximum of three (3) letters written on behalf of your business to third parties each month. (State laws and contract provisions apply.)
• Receive up to three (3) business contracts or documents of up to 15 pages each reviewed by your Provider Law Firm.

Other Legal Services for your business

Any other business legal services not otherwise covered by the membership are
available at a 25% discount from the Provider Law Firm's corporate rate.

Which is a nice way of saying that all they'll do is write a letter for you if you have a complaint or an issue. If you want to sue, you still have to pay them a retainer, but they'll give you a 25% discount off their "corporate rate." Usually the way they work this is that their "corporate rate" is about 30% higher than their "normal" rate, so after getting the discount you're paying about as much as any other client.

Not that it matters much. You don't have enough to pay any rate.

And they won't even have much to say in the letter. You see, lawyers who make idle threats and false allegations don't stay in the lawyer business long. And there's nothing we have published here that is not either 100% verifiable fact OR 100% opinion, both of which are protected under the first amendment. The most they can say is "we don't like what you said about our client and would appreciate you taking it down." And we can toss the letter in the trash if we wish. You'd have to sue us to get any kind of enforcement, and as we said, you can't afford to sue even at the "25% discounted rate."

So kindly fuck off. You're a scammer and always have been. You have self-documented your scams and crimes starting with the iamfacingforeclosure blog and continuing through today. You have made no secret of the liar loans and the sleazy strategies used to obtain your credit. You have knowingly associated with individuals (Lisa, Mike, Anthony, Mark, Marty, etc.) whose scammy histories are plastered all over the internet, if only you had bothered to Google them.

Don't complain that you've been tarred with the "fraudster" brush. Your own conduct has been plain for everybody to see. As you noted on today's talk-cast, you are personally incapable of doing anything -- even anything illegal -- without broadcasting it to the world, and broadcast you have! You have earned your reputation. No legal team can reverse your own stupidity.

And that's the way things are at the FalseCasey HQ, where we are looking forward to the possible fireworks likely to emerge from this weekend's meeting of the Salt Lake Three.

Casey breaks the law again

So, Casey has no problem computing and streaming while driving? That's what he seems to imply in one of his latest moronic videos:

"Is it illegal to drive with headset... maybe... hee hee heee... just tryin to have a good time.... maybe I'll find out later... who sez you can't stream while drivin'... hope I don't miss my turn here..."

http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2152812

He might want to pay attention to something going on around him from time to time. Hard to believe anybody living in California was not aware of this, because it got a huge amount of publicity around January 1st, including signs on the freeways and elsewhere:

The new Wireless Communications Device Law (effective January 1, 2009) makes it an infraction to write, send, or read text-based communication on an electronic wireless communications device, such as a cell phone, while driving a motor vehicle.

http://www.dmv.ca.gov/cellularphonelaws/

The law is fairly broadly written. If all he were doing was streaming with a camera that is set up before he started driving, that would probably be OK. But throughout his various streams he made it obvious that he was also checking the chatbox and even banning people while driving! This most certainly qualifies as "writing, sending or reading text-based communication."

Here is another great example where he clearly is leaning over to play with his laptop while behind the wheel in traffic:

http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2153590

And yes, he appears to have done it mostly when he was stopped or moving at low speed. But per the law, he is considered to be in control of the vehicle until he is safely parked and out of traffic. A red light doesn't cut it. "Low speed" doesn't cut it. "No other traffic on the road" doesn't cut it. Listen to his narration. He's yammering on and on about what's going on in the neighborhood he's driving through, making it clear that these are areas where pedestrian traffic is common.

He was behind the wheel, in an active lane and he was playing with his chatbox. Guilty!

His second infraction is the headset. Headsets are legal -- in fact they're required for cellphone use by a driver in California -- but are only allowed to cover one ear. His is a two-ear stereo model and the video clearly shows both earpieces in place over his ears. Again, Guilty!

[Edit: Here are the actual rules, for those of you who want to check for yourselves:

Requirement to use a hands-free device: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d11/vc23123.htm
May not cover both ears with any device: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d12/vc27400.htm
Prohibition on text communication: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d11/vc23123_5.htm

If he got into an accident and hurt somebody, he'd be paying it off for the rest of his miserable life. Not that he'd have much to pay it off with.

However, whoever owns the vehicle he was driving would probably be on the hook too. As Nigel knows from his experience with Casey a year ago, the boi is not exactly all that responsible about the vehicles he borrows. Maybe anybody who decided to lend him one for the afternoon needs to reconsider.

Of course, if he hurt or killed somebody we loved, he wouldn't have a chance to "pay it off" and neither would the owner of the vehicle. Whatever remained of their lives would be lived in excruciating pain. And we'd stream it.

And that's the way things are at FalseCasey HQ, where we can be thankful for a few brief moments that we are not anywhere near a place where Casey might be driving.

Island 2012 Project Is Dead

Our buddy Casey last posted about the Island a week ago, when he commented on the 12 things he had to do. (How's the list going, by the way. Inquiring minds want to know.)

Since then he's consumed himself with planning his birthday party, something most adults rarely put more than a few minutes into. And of course, he's been hanging out with his new grifter friends.

We strongly suspect that by the time the party rolls around this weekend, the whole island idea will be on the back burner. He has two new "islands" on his mind and the money is likely to follow them.

The question is whether he'll actually get around to telling his assembled guests (who at last note include the big-tittled fraudseter herself) that he's dumped the whole island idea in favor of investing his money in some form of a scam.

We should note that it may or may not actually be a pay-phone scam. While these are not all that uncommon, it's quite possible that the twin hucksters (the one with her own twins, and the fat guy) have something else up their sleeves, or down their blouses, as the case may be.

We were thinking it could even be fun to show up to Casey's party just to meet her. We'd be interested in finding out exactly how far she would go if presented with a sufficiently valuable "mark." We suspect that a weekend sans-Mike in Tahoe would not be out of the question.

And that's the way it is at FalseCasey HQ, where idle thoughts like that are just idle, because we really have better things to do, and our friend Claire is far better endowed than either Lisa or Angel.

Reader Poll: Which pair would you choose?

Angel:

- OR -

Lisa:

Casey apparently has little interest in either.

While the youth of the second set is clearly evident and the belly-button ring certainly gives her a certain sluttiness that we can appreicate, we nonetheless feel certain that good ol' AngelTits would give us a nice run for our money. Fake, firm, fabulous and more likely to be frustrated at home.

Your thoughts? Be open with your opinions as we will not be censoring this thread.

And that's the way it is at FalseCasey HQ, where a long fun day is coming to a close.

Casey just "invested" $10K in a pay-phone scam!

You heard it here first.

In these these tough economic times, of course, pay phones are sure to regain all the ground they lost to cellphones in the past 15 years. They're going to the moon we tell you! That's why a budding excrapreneur like Casey would want to be involved.

Photo #3:



The rest of the set is photos of him at his "friends" Mike and Lisa's place.

Lisa has particularly nice "assets" (No, we're not talking about the poor dog who is forced to live with people who are known associates of Casey Serin. Her other assets.)



Strangely enough Mike and Lisa run this outfit:

http://www.executiveconsultantgroupllc.com/

Who describe their business (Executive Consultant Group LLC) as follows:

Our company was formed to address this country's financial crisis and provide an innovative solution to fulfill our clients ever changing needs. Our concept is simple;

We work with you, one on one, to achieve maximum funding and in turn offer you high yield low risk investment opportunities.

Did you know that there are low risk investments available that yield as much as 20% per month?

Did you know that you can obtain large amounts of unsecured funding at low rates?

Putting these two winning solutions together can create an incredible passive income opportunity.

Let us create a custom proven plan that allows you to earn a passive income of at LEAST $5,000-$10,000 per month (keep in mind.....this is a minimum).

[The emphasis is ours. We know our boi!]

Yeah, that was our first thought too: "They sound like scammers."

And by the look of their incomplete and somewhat faulty website, fairly recent ones too. At least in this current incarnation.

As usual, Casey is going along. He's probably a great mark.

So why does a careful analysis suggest that he invested $10K? Mostly because that's just a bit less than his GSPG stock was worth when he sold it a few days ago. After setting aside $999 to be scammed by Sarah Prout (A scam we will dissect later), he'd have about $10K. In exchange he gets to go wine tasting with them for the day and hang out by their pool for a BBQ. You'd think he'd at least have gotten the opportunity to fondle Lisa's tits, but as we know from the whole Angeltits debacle, he's just not all that interested.

There's no other way for this to add up.

[And OK, we admit it. The whole "payphone scam" idea is very definitely a slim possibility. But Casey loves "foreshadowing" his activity with carefully placed hints in his photostream, so it's definitely fun to think about. Regardless of the nature of the proposition that Lisa and Mike are pitching to him, we suspect that it's designed to enrich them at his expense, and not the kind of "win-win" he always claims to be looking for.]

And that's the view from FalseCasey HQ, where there is still smoke in the air and we are amazed that Casey has most likely found a worse place to put his borrowed money than GSPG.

We've been out of it

Believe it or not, there are some things going on in our lives that don't involve Casey, like the crazy hooker/pornstar/cokehead we've been nailing every night, while mostly still thinking about Angel's Big Fake Tits.

But we've taken note of TrueCasey's bizarre Island project, and just commented about it on his blog. We have no faith that he will actually publish it, so here it is, complete and unedited:

FC 12:36 pm on August 28, 2009

Well, We just did some math.

In order to accommodate all your sponsors, you will need to have a minimum of 501 rooms in the resort. Pretty simple math, the total number of days committed to sponsors in each cycle is identical to the number of dollars raised per month. 500,500.

There are 1000 days in each cycle.

500,500 (total room-days per cycle) / 1000 (days per cycle) = 500.5 (rooms)

Can’t build half rooms, so you need to make it 501. Plus you’ll need one for yourself. 502. And whatever other friends you want to invite. Maybe 510.

Realistically, you probably need even more, because you need to allow for the fact that at times some rooms will be closed for maintenance, and not everybody is going to perfectly “fit” into a schedule that has the place at 100% capacity all the time.

So, you need about 600 rooms. And that’s just to accomodate the people you have made a commitment to. If you want to offer rooms to others, it needs to be even bigger. Since you’re on an island, you’ll also need employee housing and other facilities, which will add to the cost of construction and maintenance.

And you expect to be able to operate this resort on an ongoing basis with your sponsor’s money. $500,500 per month. Oh yeah, you plan to take 10% for yourself, so really you’ll have $450,450 per month available to build and operate this place, or $750 per month per room.

Most mid-grade motels in urban areas spend that much! Most resorts spend double that or more! And most of those aren’t on islands where everything is more expensive.

And that’s just operating costs. Even if you sold every single sponsorship tomorrow, it would take a few decades to save up enough money to build a 600 room resort. Look at this: http://www.hotel-online.com/News/PR2003_2nd/May03_HotelWaterParkStudy.html

Yup, that’s right. Contruction costs for a luxury resort type hotel start at around $250K per room and go as high as almost $600K. And that’s in the continental US. Again, add more on an island. Dude, you’re looking at a “starting price” of about $150m to build the place and it’ll probably be more. Even allowing for interest on the money you’re collecting, it’s almost 20 years! You need to register Island2032.com quick!

Bottom line is your plan is not feasible.

It’s also illegal. You can’t tell people “you’re a sponsor” and at the same time say “you’re entitled to future use of the facility”. Either people are sponsors, in which case they have no rights to anything other than the advertising they pay for, or they are investors, in which case they have partial ownership in perpetuity (and you need a license to sell the shares and they need to be qualified investors), or they are customers who are pre-paying for some future service, in which case you are pretty much committing fraud, because there’s no reasonable way to deliver what you’re promising for the amount of money you’re asking people to pay.

Sorry Casey, the numbers for this plan just don’t work out. The legal structure doesn’t work out. Faith is not a viable plan.

And that's the way things are at FalseCasey HQ, where it's too fucking hot, the air is full of smoke and we really want this shit to end.

Jiggle, Jiggle, Jiggle

There's not anything really exciting on the Casey front.

Brother Steve's blog keeps going, and there was a post today that we will comment on later. Casey shows up from time to time but thinks he shouldn't have to put up with the Haterz™, as usual.

But we love Big Fake Tits around here, so we can't help but point back to a really nice source of jigglies back in Casey's old neighborhood.

We also note that the bike store logo strongly resembles the feeling we get anytime we think much about Casey's former associates. Especially blondie in that low-slung top.

And by the way, please don't bother emailing us about this. We've removed anything from this blog that is not 100% verifiable, and a whole lot of stuff that is verifiable but which we decided wasn't really all that appropriate. Since you and your colleage seem to feel that "marketing" and "showing our tits" are synonymous, you can't expect not to be called on it. Sorry. If you're concerned about this, you might start by using photos that aren't designed to emphasize your chests.

And that's the view from FalseCasey HQ, where we are so glad Michael Jackson is off the radar screen for a few days, but can't help but think that things will get wild again when they finally reveal where he's been buried.
