You've got Michael Crook right on! This man is the worst kind of liar, criminal, con man and scam artist. He will befriend you, lie to your face, on the phone, via email...all the while milking your dry. He has no compassion for people or their families. I'm not even sure he's human. He's involved in auto scams, wire fraud, maybe real estate scam, misc bank scams, identity theft and more. He's used names of companies that are not his i.e., the mile group. The only time he is not lying is when he is sleeping and then he's dreaming about lying. There are a few twitter pages and a facebook page recently started to bust him out. Daily somebody puts up more information about him...
Addresses and his driver's license numbers are next, followed by his phone numbers, names of his family and friends and other people he's scammed. 
He'll claim to have lawyers and friends who help him and he pays them soooo much money to clean up his mess, but apparently he's messed with the wrong company or people or something because the buzz on him is getting louder. I saw ads on Craigslist yesterday, but someone took them down. If you know him then check out twitter @ImAConMan for daily updates. Some guy in Miami, some guy in Orlando and some guy in I think Chicago have been asking lots of questions bout him. I know first hand that he's taken a lot of $$$ from some guy that was in the Army or IS in the army. 
If you see him, post a blog or go find him on facebook or twitter. He can hide, but he can only do it for so long. He had a fake address at 8131 Vineland in Orlando, but that is just a UPS box and he had or has a storage unit at Uncle Bob's Self Storage in Dallas, Texas...Unit #C135. 
Do not trust this man at all. I heard the cadillac escalade he was driving was stolen and the vehicles with the "LUX1" and "LUX2" plates were stolen then repoed. I know where he banks too and we're working on getting that info. He leaves a mess of pi**ed off people wherever he goes. 
I don't think he is working with Leslie in Orlando...I don't think he ever was, she was just someone else he used for his image. I know a guy name Don or Donnie Allen in Chicago who is also looking for him. I hope they catch him before he strikes again!! If he came clean and paid people their returns he'd be better off, but now he has to keep moving and hope that they don't try to track him through his family and friends. I wonder how many families hes messed up over the last 2...3...4 years!!

I was screwed also by Michael Crook

AUTHOR: Michael - (United States)

POSTED: Tuesday, February 18, 2020

Michael Crook got me for a whole lot of money. I responded to ad which I still have, he had posted on Craigslist back in 2018 about a business opportunity. After meeting with him and having conversation with him about what he was looking to do he convinced me to partner up with him.

Showing me his limo company and water companies and other business's he was running, he offered me to quit my job and come work with him. I was excited. Thought to myself what a good thing im getting into. So then it all started. After getting my info, he started to apply for credit cards and loans. Having me go to different banks around the area and opening up accounts and when I would question what we were doing he would always make me feel like I was going to mess up a good oppurtunity to work with him and I didnt want to mess that up espicially after quiting my job.

Loans were coming into my account and he would transfer them out. Always giving me some BS story where the money came from and what we were going to do with the money to expand the business's and so forth. I told him as long as the bills are paid we're ok. Then one day he had me go to Delrey Beach Mercedes Benz and purchase a Mercedes S550 that he said he wanted to add to the fleet for his limo company.

Again I would tell him as long as it can be paid lets do it. Then one day he had me go to At&T and open up a business account and took out 2 iphones and tablets and said it was all for the business. Everything seemed ok. The bills were being paid and even one of the loans was paid off. This only lasted about 4-5 months and then it all stopped.

He stopped making deposits to the bank to make payments and stop paying me. Things were not looking good. Then I find out that the Mercedes was shipped to California which now I being sued for. Then I find out he opened a PayPal account and thats negative $65,000. Grand Total this guy hit my credit up for almost $200,000.

My credit went to Sh*t and im being harrassed by creditors everyday and now being sued by one of them which I think is the car loan. He also tried opening another business in my name in the state of Delawere and also tried opening a frieght company which I received all mail for. This man is the devil him self. I invitied this man into my home and met my family.

He is heartless and has no soul. Its like he's some evel robot or someting. I did do some investigating with all the info I have from him and looks like I was able to find his sister and sisters husband and looks to be his mother on Instagram. I myself have tried reporting this situation to the my local police department and all they tell me to do is file civil sue.

Its like know one wants to hear what happened to me but now I see im not the only one. My wife says I should try the state attorneys office now so thats what im going to try to do. Were you able to resolve anything in your case with Michael Crook? He told me his name was Mike Cook...
