Total money lost $7,650
Type of a scam Other
I was contacted for work after applying through LinkedIn with Nichols Venture Group and in the end of June, 2017 and first couple of weekends in July, 2017 I engaged in doing video work for an assortment of events with Nichols Venture Group. We had made an agreement that I would be paid 5 days after delivering the first video. Slowly that time came and went and I stopped working with Nichols Venture Group after no payment had been forwarded and became overdue. In the time leading up to the payment being due I had continued filming for Nichols Venture Group and thus was owed more money in the end. Now it is September 21, 2017 and Mr. Nichols has still not paid me even a dime of what I am owed (over $7500). When I can get in occasional contact with Mr. Nichols either through email or text, he no longer will answer my phone calls, he always has an excuse for why the payment has not been sent. On this day in particular he made the excuse that it was "a Holiday" and no one was working although it is not and all Federal banks and Post Office’s are open. I’d like to warn anyone and everyone not to do any business with this man.
