When I lived in Virginia I was pandred by a man named Eliase Graywolf. I had bought some random jewlery (which broke after 2 days) and gave money for various causes he was collecting for, like Pine Ridge and American Indian Movement. He displayed a womans size 8 pair of fully beaded moccasins on his Facebook page with a price of $350. When I had asked about them he had said that they were already sold and that he would gladly make me another pair with whatever colors I wanted for $400 deposit prepaid for materials. He claimed many people  ordered and backed out of order after he did all the work. But i was to send money order or Western Union to his wife Rebecca Battles.

For a whole year he kept giving me excuses about not getting me the moccasins. he said he was moving, on 5 different occasions he said his wife was having a miscarriage and didnt have time to deal with me. But that did not stop him from asking me for money for the American Indian Movement. Everytime i asked he became increasingly hostile and making threats to have me beat up by members of the American Indian Movement of Virginia so I finally gave up. I am an elderly woman who is making it on my own.

I ended up finding out that Mr. Graywolf is not the real name of this man and hat the American Indian Movement did not support or endorse him and that he had not given them any of the donation money. Then I had read that  he was not even a real Native American but an imposter.

When I got on my Facebook again I had begged him for my deposit back. This is when he had gotten vulgar with me and cursed at me over email then blocked me. Then he contacted all my friends and told them I was a liar. Now I read on Facebook that he is cheating other people and even people overseas. He must be stopped.

ELIASE IS A TOTAL FRAUD!

AUTHOR: REZ RAISED - ()

POSTED: Thursday, January 30, 2014

HIS REAL NAME IS ELIJAH TEWAHADE, I LOOKED IF UP ON A BACKGROUND CHECK. I ALSO RAN HIM THROUGH ANCESTORY.COM AND HE DOES NOT HAVE A SINGLE NDN ANCESTOR.

 XGYMRATX HAS BEEN GATHERING INFORMATION ON THIS FRAUD WHO SURPRISINGLY STILL GOES AROUND PRETENDING HE IS A TRADITIONAL LAKOTA WHILE AT THE SAME TIME ACTING LIKE A TRADITIONAL MUSLIM AROUND HIS MUSLIM FAMILY.

 WHEN I MET HIM A FEW YEARS AGO I KNEW HE WAS A LIAR AND HE WAS BOTHERING PEOPLE TO TELL HIM LAKOTA WAYS, WORDS AND TRADITIONS. IF ANYONE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO USE ALL OF IT TO WALK IN SUCH A BAD WAY NO ONE WOULD HAVE TALKED TO HIM, BUT MANY PEOPLE FELT SORRY FOR HIM BECAUSE EVERYONE WHO MEETS HIM THINKS HE IS RETARDED. HE LIES ABOUT WHO HIS FAMILY IS. HE HAS NO TIOPSAYE IN PINE RIDGE OR ANY OTHER LAKOTA REZ. HE IS NOT OF MY OYATE. HE IS AFRICAN.

 I WAS DONE WITH HIM WHEN TOLD ME HE WAS A COMBAT VET WHO WENT AWOL BY TAKING HIS GUN AND JUMPING THE FENCE. IMPOSSIBLE. AND HE ALSO TOLD ME HE WAS WOUNDED IN IRAQ BUT COULDNT SAY WHERE OR WHAT COMPANY HE BELONGED TO. AND HE WAS ALWAYS ASKING FOR THINGS, I WAS NOT ABOUT TO GIVE HIM THINGS HE ASKED FOR LIKE FAMILY HEIRLOOMS AND EAGLE FEATHERS.

 I HEARD ABOUT HIM RIPPING OFF OTHER PEOPLE FOR YEARS, AND HE CLAIMS TO BE DOING GOOD FOR INDIANS AFTER STEALING FROM THEM. HE ALSO HOLDS FALSE CHARITIES AND DRIVES FOR THE REZ AND KEEPS EVERYTHING FOR HIMSELF. I KNOW FIRST HAND HE NEVER CONTRIBUTED TO ANY LAKOTA REZ. 

 GIVING HIM MONEY OR ANYTHING OF VALUE IS A MISTAKE, SO IS BUYING HIS STUPID LOOKING JEWLERY AND DREAMCATCHERS. NONE OF THE PROCEEDS GO TO ANY INDIANS.

HaHa I wondered when the zoophilia was going to come up.

POSTED: Tuesday, December 03, 2013

I have about 15 screenshot pics as well that have been making the rounds on facebook. Anyways you would think this creep would be ashamed by now. No, he still keeps trying to creep back around with stories claiming he is Native and making up how he is related to everyone who wouldn't know him if he passed them on the street.

My question is why his wife goes along with it? Is she easily misled or is she a scammer too? If every Native around hates you for all the things you are doing don't you think it may be about time to quit and get a real job? This many Natives against you can't be wrong. You either do not care or you think it's funny. What is it?

hahaha you guys aint seen nuthin yet

read newagefraud.org and look in fraud section....eliase GAYwolf is there. also google his name......some very interesting things were found out about him and pets. (with MUCH proof)

also he is NOT lakota, never will be lakota....every lakota i know DESPISES him, now he went back to trying to claim he is cherokee....even choctaw

he also claims his wife....a white woman...... is ojibwe

none of this is true....i dont see why he just dont be himself.......there is also stuff he did in the spiritual world that offended all denver indians....you can read that about all that with googling his name.....but here we are gonna talk about his products

anything he mad is CRAP.....and anything that he sells thats kind of decent quality he ripped off from peoples generosity when they invited him in their homes, or part of many bad consignment deals he made with many others that he didnt hold up his end

his real name is elijah yenegata tewahade.......and for some reason he is ashamed of being ethiopian.....he even lied telling people he was part egyptian....and his mother is white and he claims she is indian..... hahaha even told people he was at wounded knee seige as a baby.....stupid liar

unfortunately with lies about background comes scamming and ripping people off..........and many of them elderly including one woman who lost her home......he didnt send her a dime after taking things from her with promises to pay after he sold her crafts

he presumes to speak for native people also....and he aint even native nor does he know anything about us......notice he now claims his stuff is native amercan STYLE? its because the dept of interior called his a*s out and tod him he can no longer call his stuff handcrafted lakota.....yet he still does....he just dont put it on his cards anymore

there is soooo much about this guy.....too much to put here.......i can pick him apart (as i already have) with his own words and screenshots........lets see his wife rebuke me

Is Eliase still pretending to be Lakota?

AUTHOR: Dave Associan - ()

POSTED: Monday, July 29, 2013

He is NOT and neither is his wife. Extensive checks into both of their backgrounds prove it. Google Native Dreams Inc and see for yourself. Eliase has been exposed as an Ethiopian thanks to the hard work of al the Denver area Natives hard work. He lies, and retaliates by calling the REAL Indians frauds. What a joke. He even provided an "enrollment" census number before with NO LETTERS HaHa. I heard even the Oglala tribe is thinking about issuing a statement denouncing his endeavors since he managed to anger the whole tribe, I sure hope they do. He is NOT Lakota. He is NOT even NDN. He is NOT related to Russel Means, Wallace Black Elk, David Swalow, Joanne Spotted Bear, Babette Thin Elk and whoever else he claims he is. A.I.M. does not even know him much less support him (he claims to be militant). He is NOT a combat veteran as he claims. He IS a phoney, as his company. In order to use the word "Native" and sell "Native" products he must provide CDIB per IACA and he commits a Federal Felony everytime he claims such so that is why now he is careful to call his stuff Lakota-STYLE because he has not one drop of Lakota blood running through his veins. Anything good he sells someone else made and got burned for anyways. Eliase Yenegata is living pure delusional fantasy. I bet he comes on here to tell me that I am a phoney.

#1 UPDATE Employee

The report was not something recent

AUTHOR: Native Dreams - ()

POSTED: Thursday, July 04, 2013

My employer does not even remebering talking to anyone about making mocs for anyone.  He would tell them that we do not make them.  In regrads to the women named Rebecca Battles.  She has not been involved with this company since June 2011.

I am just more then an employee of the company I am also his wife.  If you spoke to someone before June of 2011, it would have been her.  The shop page on Facebook was made at the end of 2011.  There is no way that you spoke to Eliase or me since I was the one who made the facebook page for the company.  

If the you bought jewelry from us and it broke, you should have contacted us and we would have sent a replacement.  Native Dreams has a 30 day return policy.

What was going on prior to me joining the company has stopped.  It is ran as a legimite company, registered with the state of Colorado.

If some one overseas has ever tried to order from us, we tell them that we do not ship overseas.  We have fullfilled all orders that has come in.  As our online orders are few and far between I know all of them as I handle all shipping.

Please be aware that what she is saying is prior to October 2011.  Rebecca Battles has not even been with the business since June of 2011.
