AHN - All Headline News AHN Media Corporation Unpaid PERL Programming Service Charges Wellington Florida

This company (AHN) is headed by W. Jeffrey Brown, who hired me via Scriptlance back in year 2005, for writing scraper/spider/crawler code in PERL Language.

The technical lead at that time was Todd Wade (toddw@allheadlinenews.com), to whom I usually report the work done.

W. Jeffrey Brown sent me first payment on time, via Western Union (I do have receipt, the amount was USD$250.00), but for a month long period they did not paid me the amount which was USD $1788.00. [total billable hours 149 @ USD $12.00]

When I start asking about clearing my dues, W. Jeffrey Brown and Todd Wade slower their responses, finally I got heard from Todd Wade (at Saturday, July 23, 2005 2:53:03 AM), informing me that some piece of code was not of product use, so they will pay lesser than USD $1788.00, I agreed upon that.

Sent several emails to W. Jeffrey Brown, even called him several times, left several voice messages, but no response. W Jeffrey Brown in the start (Thursday, August 04, 2005 12:06:53 AM) informed me that AHN pays amount in 30 days of invoice, now its 2008 and still no payment from them.

I do have all the email based communication that were made between me and AHN.

Can anyone help me to get the hard earned amount?

Waiting for any response.

Regards,

-Ahmed .
