So, I'm sitting here wondering how many times somebody can take money from people supposedly in exchange for a good or service and fail to provide anything before it becomes fraud. Really, I'm thinking that there are some people out there who are operating at an enormous profit because all they offer are promises and payment up front.
Asif Zamir may have started off with lofty ideas of providing a low cost alternative to the retail stores, but he seems to have gotten sidetracked along the way into simply taking people's money in a manner that offers them no recourse outside of legal action and using it to take trips to the US.
If he does this 15 times, is it fraud? Does he have to do it 20 or 30 times? What constitutes a pattern? Presuming that Asif Zamir is a man of average intelligence, he knew well before soliciting money from Jakub, in June 2007, that his business had failed and to take any money from others would be simply an act of theft, because ethically, he would have to use that money to pay back one of the other people owed money.
This presumes also that he actually had any intention of providing goods for those who gave him money. The fact that he avoided all modes of payment that provided the "customers" with recourse indicates some forethought that if he did not meet his side of the bargain he would not have to reimburse the money.
Right now Asif Zamir may be advertising on the internet or in newpapers and getting new customers. My bet now is that he will not divulge his name because of this website.
It is obvious to all his creditors that Asif Zamir has no intention of repaying us. When will the only people able to stop him see that?
