Miles Shumilak is a classic con artist. He is incredibly friendly over the phone and in person and seemed smart enough, but will jump at the opportunity to screw you over. He screwed my business out of a listing on his site, and totally ignored my attempts at resolving things. After chatting with many others (4 now!) who've had bad experiences with Miles, I feel duped. Some were screwed out of just $25 for the listing, and others screwed out of several hundred dollars. In my case, I was just ignored after paying, with no services rendered. Promises promises, ignored emails, etc. I thought it was just laziness, but others said he just spends the money recklessly (bars & drugs (cocaine specifically)) and then ignores customer service calls & emails, blocks social media, etc. Do not work with Miles! He has no principles.

Miles Shumilak or Miles Mayer or Emily Smith???

I believe everyone should have an opportunity to learn from mistakes, and to go on to lead a better life. Miles Shumilak/Miles Mayer/Emily Smith, or whoever you really are, you have had plenty of opportunity to make those changes and make those amends and yet you continue to reformulate new ways to scam people...a different company, a different name, you are a CON and that is certainly nothing to be proud of. Sad for the "human" that you are, may you find a better way and stop victimizing innocent people. :(

Miles Shumilak THE CON new aliases
AUTHOR: Please Develop Some Morals - ()
SUBMITTED: Sunday, December 04, 2016
I just wanted to warn you that I believe Miles Shumilak is now operating on Facebook as Miles Mayer. (Google photo matches one in his FB photos.)
He also is believed to be operating a similar scam under the company Bandwidth Daily Media, using either another assistant in the con, or using the alias of Emily Smith. He/They are targeting hungry musicians with promises of features in an on-line magazine at this website link: www.bndwdth.media -- Which was a full fledged artist profiling page, seemed very legitimate, but now is mysteriously "under construction" and their Instragram profile has no posts at all anymore. They collect money from aspiring musicians and never deliver the article. Several musicians have posted links saying thanks for the feature, read the full artickle here, with website links that have been broken now...so this con has even gone as far as putting up some interviews for some people along the way, prior to ditching out of the site.
The person contacting is "Emily Smith" and she says all sorts of enticing positive things to the artist, quoting relevant info about them ie. new songs, website or facebook page posts, and even asks direct specific questions for the "interview"
Then asks for the money and says the editor will be in contact soon! Very polite. Nothing materializes after the money is transferred. Kind of a sad scam for aspiring young musicians who are so trusting and don't know the number of con artists who are out there in the industry.
I have seen quite a few complaints on-line about the Bandwidth Media being a scam, how it is linked with "Emily Smith" and this Miles Shumilak con. (or Miles Mayer if that's his real name.)
Although his rebuttal seems to make excuses, and ask for understanding, I believe it was truly a SCAM and that he is now operating a similar SCAM with an alias or aliases.
Please be cautious, everyone! :(

NOT So fast. The scams still going on November 2015

Here are the string of emails so please no sob story about being young and f***** up. and genuinly sorry crap! I actually fell for the scam and when the receipt from Paypal showed a different recipient to the company I agreed with, I made a search. Sure enough many have reported this scammer. I then contacted 'Sasha' and Paypal and got my refund but I would be damned if this is enough and here is the same scam with a different flavouring and served hot off the press. Yes,
Miles Shumilak YOU ARE FRAUD and DON'T TELL US YOU WERE YOUNG AND SORRY!

Dear Miles Shumilak,
you still seem to be ripping people off, this is what happened to me:
2015-03-11 -One of your staff at www.gentlemangenius.com contacted me for a "rising artist feature" (mentioning nothing about payment at first).
2015-03-12 -I recieved questions that I answered by e-mail together with press pictures, files etc.
