He owes me some more work also…
Isn’t this the guy known as “Hitmob”? He’s been known as a conman since the days of Steve Atkins, and the original OPA. Do a search before giving money to someone online. Too late now, I’m sorry to say.
He was involved in strong-arming Sunny Casinos to get payoffs, admitted by Sunny.
DON’T BELIEVE ANYTHING MIKE CRAIG SAYS, AND DON’T GIVE HIM ANYMORE OF YOUR MONEY!!!

I heard from mike within hours of this post ,coincidence i am unsure.In any case he said he was ill ,says he will do a refund and fix the work.I will give him a chance to make this right.This was difficult for me to post as i try to resolve matters discretely but with no contact ,mike left me no choice to go public.
I do not know if my Mike Craig is same person ,heck i don’t even know who Steve Atkins is or OPA.For the record I have been doing business since October 2007 with him ,he is not somebody i found online and handed money the next day.I bought some of his websites ,i liked the work then hired him as a contractor for my content. Please update me when you hear from him Dominique.I hope this all works out for you, your to nice of a person to be treated wrongly.
Best wishes.
Dom, same to you, both of you deserve better from people.
god bless
I do remember the OPA scandal.
Still, the name didn’t click, it’s been a long time.
No I haven’t heard from Mike, I wasn’t worried until I became aware of the bonus guy situation. I hope he will PM me.
Try searching winneronline.com , that’s where I remember a lot of discussion taking place.

I remember those days! It was a circus for sure. I think most of that stuff is gone, but maybe archived online somewhere.
There is a pretty recent question about him without an answer:

and a recap of what happened (I think, no time to read all that right now)

Just Bumping this thread to give you a recap.Mike contacted me within hours of me posting here.He made up some rubbish about having blood poisoning and being sick.Anyway he made me 8 pages of content over 2-3 days then disappeared.I gave him enough time to work out our situation privately ,we are now 2+ months over the time where i paid him thousands for websites/content.
Paypal was able to recover .17cents of the $3650 claim i filed.I made a wire to a bank in UK on November 17 ,lucky for me there is real people at Abbey Bank .They took our complaint but require us to file a police report in Canada and send to them then they can involve local police.It may take a month to get all the filings done but when it is done they seem willing to assist us , not sure if that will recover any money but we really hope everyone who has forums can warn your members about this scammer.
We replied to his advertising here in CAP so he does troll these forum and sell newly created websites or content usually in 50-100 pages on specific subjects/software.If the mods can make this a sticky would be great.Judy
My two cents:
When we use a new person from time to time, I demand they sign up an account at Elance.com and use the Escrow.
This way the process is managed and they know the money uis available becuase they can see it.
We first dealt with mike from october to december 2007 when we bought over $xx,xxx websites from him.Since we had alot of financial dealings that turned out great whenhe offered to do content for us we had no issues.We had many successful months with him then he did this to us.We are not amaters and probably in last 3 years have bought nearly 1 million dollars in websites and services .I know how Mike works he will work with you for few months before doing the hit and run.
I wanted to update you that we have filed a police report on this matter .If you have sent Mike Craig or Hayley church money and have not received what you paid for please leave your feedback.
Since posting my original post I did manager to contact Mike’s sister Hayley Church which was NO HELP .Paypal recovered .17 cents of a $3650 claim.To make matters worst when we copyscaped an additional $4800 worth of work on Casinobonusguy , we found it was a copy of another site that mike had owned but we had purchased from him.So effectively he took my own content and copied and pasted onto casinobonusguy.
IMO given his history for the past 6 years in this business and what he is known for ,I would like to see CAP put a permanent post here warning people about this guy and his operation.Judy
