I have invested $40,000.00 into the business offered by IKON Capital Group.
The idea was to purchase 2 vandalized properties in Englewood, to rehad them and sell them later  with some profit.
I did not have enough money to fix these properties, so the agreement was that I will buy the properties   and IKON Capital with fix them up, and later we sell them and we shere the profit.
Unfortunately, these deshonest people did not keep their word, they just robbed me and some  naive contractors who were working for them.
IKON Capital hired some contractors to fix these properties and did not pay them at all.
Some people put the liens against the property in hope to get paid at closing.
But it never happened.
After a couple of months we discovered that behind our backs the buildings have been aquired by quit claim deeds by two illegal immigrants  from Ukraine and already sold to two other immigrants from Belarus.
At the closing Mr Ivan Diaz pocketed his money and the immigrants leaved the country.
Somebody with cooperation with  IKON Capital Group just forgered my signature on the Quit Claim Deeds and the  signatures of the contractors on the Releases of Liens.
We have filed a complain with US Attorney Office, however due to the fact the straw buyers are gone and also like Mr Ivan Diaz has a good attorney because we do not see any progress with that case.
When we called office of IKON Capital Mr Ivan Diaz said that actually we can kiss his a*s because the illegal immigrants are gone to the countries with which US Government doens not have any agreement.
In conclusion. we just lost our money. and when we come to his office to ask what is going on.
he immediately calls the police . reporting armed robbery. so that is how we lost our money.
so my advice is. do not mess with these thieves.

AUTHOR: Ivan Diaz - (United States of America)

POSTED: Saturday, February 09, 2013

Rip off Report:

My name is Ivan Diaz, President and co-founder of IKON Capital Group, LLC. I have read through this report with complete astonishment. How could a perturbed and twisted mind use its spear time to hurt a successful business? 

Recently, one of my partners pointed out that there were some complaints about our company online. I read the reports posted and was blown away.

I then decided that it was time to STOP all of the lies. I did some research and hired an internet investigator to track down the person or group responsible for all these fallacies.

All of the reports against our company have all been filed by one single individual. This persons intent is only to harm companies that are performing well.

I personally contacted the Illinois Attorney General office and the FBI Fraud Consumers Line. I asked them if there were any complaints or related matter against our company and the FBIs answer was to disregard and that the people posting the lies were most likely is scam-artists.

Furthermore, a few days after the report was filed, I received a phone call from a TEAM VIP Arbitration. They said they can remove all the complaints about the business for a small fee of about $8,000.00.

Below is the website information:

Here's how it works. We have contracted with private arbitrators who have extensive experience, including experienced judges. You submit a written arbitration statement identifying the false statements in the report, or explaining that the report was posted by a competitor pretending to be a customer. You are also given the opportunity to support your position with documentary evidence and/or sworn affidavits. There is a filing fee of $2,000 to pay for the arbitrators time
and for administration of the program. The author of the report is then given the opportunity respond and you are given the opportunity to reply.

Our company was under attack with 4 different negative reports. That means we need to pay up to $8,000; to clear something that are COMPLETE LIES.

My name is Ivan Diaz and all these reports are complete lies. If you are the person or company behinds these lies DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT ME (312) 235-6600.

 RIPOFF REPORTS RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE REBUTTAL .. whoever called this guy was NOT from Ripoff Report .. every day SEO companies are making calls like they are from Ripoff Report Ripoff Report does not make calls about our Arbitration Program.

First, Ripoff Report strongly believes in the First Amendment, free speech, even when that speech is less than flattering, .. even when its about us. We understand that people who have complaints written about them are upset and want to place blame somewhere, especially if they feel the content of the Reports are false.


We also understand that individuals want to blame our website rather than strictly placing blame on the person who wrote the Reports in the first place. Using the same method that we provide to all of our users, FREE OF CHARGE, we would like to set the record straight as to the comments posted about our website through this Rebuttal.


Every user of our website has the opportunity to tell their side of the story, for free, just as we will do here. To that extent, we would also like to point out that we certainly try to encourage users to set the record straight and tell their side of the story by using the free methods available to them before they consider other Ripoff Report programs (such as our VIP Arbitration Program or the Corporate Advocacy Program) or alterative avenues (such as filing a lawsuit against the Author of the report) that cost money.


Second, it is important for all of our users to know that Ripoff Report does not have individuals calling out to consumers on behalf of our Arbitration Department. If you receive a call from anyone claiming to be with the Ripoff Report Arbitration Department please get as much information as you can from the individual and be sure to let us know about it by e-mailing our Arbitration Department at Arbitration@ripoffreport.com.


We are aware that there are companies out there, who may be in the business of selling SEO or other services, who will try to hook you by saying they are with us, or making it sound like they might work with us, when they really arent. They may even go so far as to advise you that they can remove reports from our website which is not the truth. We have a long standing uniform policy for NOT removing reports and anyone telling you that they can is not telling you the truth. If they can tell you they can remove our listing from page one to page 3 on search engines, .. if they can, it does not last long. Read about the new Digital Extortion here.


Again, if you ever receive a call from someone advising you they are with us, send us an e-mail to confirm the situation. General inquires questions can be sent to Support@ripoffreport.com.


Third, the Author of this report is correct in that we do offer an Arbitration Program. Ripoff Reports VIP Arbitration Program is not free because we have to pay the arbitrators and staff for the administration of the Program. Because our arbitrators and staff do not work for free, we cannot offer the program for free. To understand the full context of our Arbitration program, we invite you to review all of the applicable information, including the Program Rules, by visiting our arbitration webpage at http://www.ripoffreport.com/Arbitration.aspx.


We thank you for taking the time to read this Rebuttal and allowing us to set the record straight.
