I met both Michael crook and lj in Atlanta. They both claim to be good business men but in reality they are both scam artist!. Lj owns buckheadautosports and Michael is a partner. Michael crook is a crook just like his last name. He is a con artist and has been doing this his entire life. He's 6'4 200+ lbs black,and he can be verified by this extremely deep voice. Lj is short fat and bald. He could be verified by his putruding belly. Michael is planning to change his name so beware of the new michael crook. He also uses the name Jason cook. They scammed me months ago for a car. Do not do business with that phony dealership.

Michael also does business with Ace check cashing. If you ever go to a ace Checking cashing in Texas those are michael's soda machines. He often sale the route to anyone who has enough money. His ads can be found on backpage, craigslist and bizbuysell. Under the states of Memphis, Denver, California and philadelphia and Texas. He's recently started doing real estate scams with a woman name Leslie and her fianc Mark. To give you the lowdown on Michael he's an ex marine. He has a tattoo on his right arm. He should be considered dangerous if he has a weapon but if no weapon is present he is a punk. He has a cadillac esclade esv. which is the truck in the photo with the license plate "CEO 1". Which he parks at the dallas airport whenever he leaves dallas. You can recognize all his car by there license plates. They all begin with the word "lux" followed by a number"lux1, lux2". He claims to have a medical condition. His bowels system runs at night. Which I feel is a big excuse to use the bathroom on himself. Also Michael has a older couple in North Caroline. They get payed to reasure michael's victims that he is legit. They all do home scams together. Michael always wears the same old busted gucci loafers or a pair of grey and highlighted green air max sneakers. He has been to jail when he was younger for drugs and he is in business with the owner of the "dreams" club in Houston Texas. For those of you that don't know Michael was a strip club owner a few yeas ago and now he goes on sexyjobs.com to find underage women to work at strip clubs to make him money. Yes he is a pimp!. He hides all of this from Ace check cashing, from the deals he has with coca-cola and pepsi!. Michael has received death threats from a man who he owes over 10,000 dollars to. Of course Michael played like a coward and asked his 70 year old parents to give him the money so he could stop having nightmares and finally pay his attorney. Michael claims that he is sooooo broke and he often doesn't pay his attorney on purpose.he calls to say he deposited the money and he doesn't know why they haven't received it. What a loser! But the entire point of this was to let everyone know that Michael crook is phony and to never do business with buckhead auto sports. Michael crook and lj will scam anyone. No matter there age, race,relation to him gender or occupation. He is good at what he does but it's not right. If you are scammed by him he will run and hide from you. He's a woman in a mans body seriously. He will also change his phone numbers but he checks his email daily. If he has scams you and you want to contact him, as of today his phone number is 305-458-8404 his personal emails addresses are mike(at)thequilgroup(dot)com and mike(at)pmvend(dot)com his past with catch up with him soon. If you see him Be sure to aim for his head!!. I know Michael will read this and I'm sure he'll be mad that I put his business out for the world to see but he cost me 26,000 dollars. All of my info Is correct So to everyone that reads this please do your research on everyone you come in contact with. I have learned my lesson and karma is sure to find mr crook soon. Take care:).

Michael Crook screwed me too

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...
