US-Telecom - David Bell US-Telecom committed fraud against my company by ordering mechandise to resell to their customers with no intent of ever paying off the purchase order they presented. Monrovia California

It all started with a good credit card order, An employee named Gabriel Menchaca then asked for terms, we did a little checking and they seemed okay so we extended NET 30 terms, Then 3 PO's with 30 or so days dating back to Sept 2005 and a total of about $1600.00 in equipment.

Repeated calls to different people have led to more lies and stories. Contacted the President of the company David Bell. He has also made payment promises that never happen.

Stay away from these guys - they are all smoke and mirrors.

Let the seller be aware!

David Bell is the President

Here is information I should have researched before extending this guy DAVID BELL any credit.

Here is a report I pulled on my friend David Bell, seems he has tried to tie himself to the real USTELECOM.com, failed a couple of comapnies, and owes a TON of money.

I guess I am the fool for not looking up this guy in the first place.

Just wanted to shore up my story - HOW ABOUT YOU DAVID BELL?

It's long but interesting ........
