I found Steve Lasso on www.daboomc.com. We had numerous telephone conversations and I fell for his elaborate scheme to seem like a authorized dealer of denim. After several conversations and assurance that he was the best source for denim, I agreed to purchase 43 pairs of designer denim for a total of $2900.00. At first we agreed to do the transaction through American Express but at the last minute, he said he couldn't do it because of his own issues with fraud (customers used stolen credit cards to make a purchase). Because I needed assurance that I would receive my items, we agreed to do 50% initial payment and 50% upon delivery.
So, I paid him about $1420. He told me the tracking number through UPS would be sent immediately. HOWEVER, after wiring him the money, he avoided all forms of contact through e-mail and phone. After 3-4 days of no response, I called the police and eventually demanded a refund through e-mail and his voicemail. Finally, after almost 6 days, a man named Chris Hansen responded back with a bogus story of Steve getting into a car accident and assured me my items would be sent out through UPS. He scanned a fake shipping label and provided me with a tracking number that didn't work at the time(J188521728).
In fact, he wrote a UPS account number that didn't belong to him (after researching, I found out it belongs to Fairfield Resorts in Florida!!)and checked the box stating the amount would be billed to that account. He never shipped anything out and again avoided all contact. I've contacted UPS (they put an alert on his illigitamate use of that account), the bank and the police.
After many threats, he eventually did ship out a package through next day air under that same account number. I received JUNK. I only got 15 pairs of jeans - all dirty and counterfeit items. To make it even more ridiculous, none of the styles I had ordered were sent. I contacted him again and insisted that they were authentic. After threatening to file a civil lawsuit, he assured me he would refund my money if I sent the merchandise back. The police encouraged me to return the merchandise so it would no longer be a civil matter but would now be considered theft and they could get involved. At the moment, the package has been sent back but Steve or Bill refuses to accept the shipment and it has been attempted for delivery three times already. It is ridiculous that this man continues to scam people and not get caught or in trouble. If anyone has filed reports against this man, please contact me. He deserves to sit behind bars!

It's Ori and Sam
Bill hows it going. Please dont denie knowing me cause I think i spoke to you for a good week more than i spoke to my girl friend. I kept all the phone bills i have from you calling me and me calling you and conversations recorded. I remember the first time speaking to you on the phone, I have to hand it to you...you had me. Played it all well with all of your fake company names, fake tracking numbers, and fake jeans. Dont even try to sell jeans anymore everyone knows that your all FRAUD. Go to google.com, type in Bill Stern, i should probably do not have to tell you im sure you already know your not a dumb guy. But screwing teenagers for $2000.00
Thats low Bill if I some how find you one day. You will be takin care of. And its so sad that you guys have the same stories for everyone. Your b**ch partner had to text message me saying your b**ch a** was in a car accident. Mother fer god would have done you a favour if you were killed in a car accident. I promise you that your going to die much worse. If anyone has any idea of how to form a law suit on this p***k let me know i have proof, bank transfers, emails, phone numbers, ups tracking numbers. I got it all.
Thanks Bill you have my number. If you would like to resolve this issue give me a call. Atleast call me and tell me what you have to say.

Absolute nonsense - this guy and his buddy Steve Lasso are complete scams otherwise they would have accepted the return and refunded the money as they promised in their contract. I still have the counterfeit jeans to prove! Which is why this claim has been processed with the attorney general of NY. Merchandise pictures, e-mails, fake tracking numbers, fake invoices, bank info ... more than enough information to prove Bill Stern is pure fraud.
