I was ripped of by Steve Lanni, after wiring him $6,500 for a spa. I never recieved a thing from Steve Lanni or Factory Direct Spas. They are a rip off and a scam and there is a website with more information about Steve Lanni.

What's wrong with this picture Steve?



Sure I made mistakes in my first marraige. You are right, I got addicted to meth..... Hanging out with YOUR FRIEND Doug Stone! Who introduced me to Doug again? Oh yeah, YOU!



I learned my lesson about using Meth and I have been clean since 1999 and plan of keeping that way. Drug addiction can be treated, but habitual liers and people who are addicted to stealing, usually end up in jail, which is exactly where you are going.



You telling me that you are forwarding anything to the FBI is a total joke to me Steve. I have personally spoken with detective Jim Britt of the Harris County DA's office in regards to my knowledge of you and your behavior, as well as Mike Garett of the FBI concerning your business practices, prior to moving to the great state of Texas. You are in so deep right now, it's not even funny.



As far as you writing me off? Ha ha ha ha That is almost the funniest thing I have ever heard. I was an employee of yours and you treat me like this, lying and saying that I never even worked for you? Wow! That is really low man.



I just wanted to give a shout out to GEORGIA from Auburn! Woo h*o! How are you doing? You know Steve Lanni better than I do, but I think that the word is seriously getting out now about him, so that is good news.



Steve's new updated factory-direct-spas website is a total joke! Steve puts his "faith" as a link. Here's some news Lanni.... You will use your faith most, while you are in a federal prison, doing time for a RICO Scam!

Robbie

AUTHOR: Steve - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, May 18, 2006

Robbie Spencer.



The last time I saw you I disassociated myself with you becuase you and were very heavy into illegal drugs, mainly snorting crystal methayne.



If you remember Robbie, the heavy drug use you were into at that time resulted in the divorce of your marriage at that time which was a fine christian woman that completely funded your recording studio. Maybe you were just using her for money and "ripping her off". I stopped hanging with you becuase you were, and probabaly still a drug addict



Your comments on this website are unbelievable. You obviously must still be on drugs to post such crazy false statements about me. OK, to discount your claims as follows,



(1) Your first you claim is that you are an "EX EMPLOYEE"



FALSE, YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN UNDER MY EMPLOYMENT AND FOR THAT MATTER HAVE NEVER EVEN LIVED IN THE CITY OF HOUSTON, WHO IS THE LIAR NOW?



(2) Second claim. "I was ripped of by Steve Lanni, after wiring him $6,500 for a spa. I never recieved a thing from Steve Lanni or Factory Direct Spas."



FALSE, YOU ARE AGAIN A LIAR. YOU HAVE NEVER "WIRED" OUR COMPANY ANY MONEY. THAT IS SUCH A COMPLETE LIE. IF YOU HAVE I CHALLENGE YOU TO POST THE WIRE INFORMATION ON THIS WEBSITE IN REBUTTAL. YOU CAN'T BECUASE YOU ARE A FLAT OUT LIAR THAT IS MOST LIKELY STILL A LOSER DRUG ADDICT. I AM SETTING THE RECORT STRAIGHT HERE YOU HAVE NEVER PURCHASE SQUAT FROM ANY COMPANY I HAVE EVER OWNED, MANAGED, OR CONTROLLED. DUDE WHY IN GODS EARTH WOULD PROVOKE YOU TO POST SUCH SLANDER.



Robbie Spencer is a flat out liar. Other than the nice call he made to me a few weeks ago bragging about his big "music" thing. I have not spoke with Robbie Spencer "Spencer Hectic" (as he wanted to be know by) for over 20 years.



I would never do anything like this to anyone. For your information posting false statements on a website that is completely untrue is considered Defamation, Libel and Slander.



I would suggest you have these lies removed before immediately from this website or face serious charges in Houston. I will pursue a court actions to the farthest extent of the law agaist you if you continue this slander.



You have been warned. Also sending and email to emply that you are intending to hack into my information has prompted me to send forward this email to the FBI for investigation.



YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Come on Steve! Come clean with these people and pay them back. You know how wrong that is to rip people off like that. Your family is being humiliated, thanks to your actions. This is NOT how we roll right? You are going to prison for a long time and then who will support your babies? Think about it man.

Steve Lanni has ALWAYS been a Scam Artist.

AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, April 11, 2006

I've known Steve Todd Lanni since the 80's and he has ALWAYS been a scam artist. Steve's brother owns a reputable pool company and does a great job. Steve has always been somewhat of a loose cannon. I feel sorry for all the other people who lost money. Steve has no idea how bad he hurt them by lying and stealing from them.

False Claim and considered "slander"

AUTHOR: Steve - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, March 30, 2006

The company Facory Direct Spas has NEVER had any dealings with any individual or company in Grass Valley California. We have NEVER received any funds wired to our account fo $6,500.00



If the statements are true please for starters list your last name, and then provide an etited or sanatized copy of your wire document.



I did not think so, it never existed.



Further Calis Spas is not owned by Steve Lanni, or Factory direct spas, and has NEVER sold spas to anyone. This is a materially false statement please restrict this from your records as it is false.



Thank you
