ATMBusiness - MAGELLAN1 - CashNow - Miro Zecevic - Andrea Zecevic - Gary McNulty - Paul Gold - David McLean This Same Group operating Cash Now - Cash Now Plus - Fraudulently Acquired $45,000.00 Of My Hard Earned Investment RIPOFF Markham, Toronto Ontario, Canada
I was looking for an Investment Opportunity to help pay the huge $5,000 Month Nursing Care Costs paid for a Senior Member of my Family. I needed an opportunity I could manage at home from my computer, and manage my work schedule to give me the flexibility I needed to also perform as a Caregiver.
Due to my lack of great knowledge about the ATMBusiness, I found the offer from ATMBusiness.com attractive, because I would be able to 1) Purchase 5 ATM Machines, 2) ATM Location Sites found for all 5 Machines with a 800 transaction a Month guaranteed, or a non-money making ATM would be re-located by ATMBusiness.com at no cost to me. 3) Training and On-Line transaction processing and 1 year ATM Machine and Software maintenance would be provided for one full year. Not a bad DEAL, if only the DEAL was REAL!
I entered into my Agreement with Magellan1.Com(Owned/Ran by Miro & Andrea Zecevic/ATMBusiness.Com, Gary McNulty, Paul Gold & David McLean, on January 15th 2005, with a March 15th 2005 Deadline Date to Deliver, all five ATM Machine, five acceptable ATM Sites, approved by me, Training and Transactions processing services.
I deposited License Fee Funds in a Bank of America Account in Bethesda, MD, shortly after I deposited the balance in the same BOA Bank Account for purchasing the ATM Machines and Services. Things started to move a little slowly because their best Locator had to be sent in from Texas, but the lines of communication stayed open and I communicated almost daily with all parties involved.
The Locator finally arrived from Texas during the second week of February and immediately found two very outstanding ATM Locations right away. Then the third, also a very good Location was found. I had telephone jacks and lines installed in the locations that needed them for the ATM's Machines access banking services on dedicated tele lines and paid for them, as part of my contractual obligation. I paid for Software to Monitor my ATM Transactions RealTime for all 5 of my ATM Machines.
Then, the Locator had to return to Texas, we were approaching the Deadline Date very fast, non of the ATM Machines had not been ordered for the 3 ATM Locations that had been found, after promises had been made with the ATM Site Owners by the Locator for immediate delivery of the ATM Machines.
At that point, everything started to slow to a stop and everything went downhill from that point. No ATM Machines were ever delivered, the 2 additional ATM Locations still needed to be secured and then approved by me, and Gary McNulty began to stop all communications. As the Deadline Date came closer, communications with my Contacts at ATMBusiness.com became more and more difficult and finally non-responsive. Once ATMBuiness.com, MAGELLAN1.com, McNulty, Gold, begin to fail to meet their contractual agreements with me, I DEMANDED my MONEY BACK.
At that point none of the principles party to the contractual agreement in Canada, would Communicate with me. I did recover the money I invested in Transaction Monitoring Software, that I purchased from Dan Spirer of Automated Bank Services, the ATM Machines Transaction Processing Company who was located in Sharon Hill, PA. I then learned Automated Bank Services (Dan Spirer) was also suppose to ship, install and provide the training for the ATM Machines, but the ATM Machines had never been ordered by GARY McNulty.
I made DEMANDS to ATMBusiness.com, MAGELLAN1.com, Gary McNulty, Paul Gold, etc. for a FULL REFUND of my Money. I neither, have not been refunded one penny of my Money. However, I will not stop until I get my money back! No ONE has the RIGHT TO STEAL from anyone. Especially because we are not talking just a few hundred dollars. $45,000 has been fraudulently taken from me, money I need to pay for the College Educations of my children, which does not including other money I invested in this ATM Business setting up my office, computer, installing telephone jacks/tele lines, gas for travel, software restocking fees, etc.
If I were a LONE VICTIM, I would then think this was just a SCAM, but because I have so many others like me, with the same/similar experiences with this SAME GROUP OF PERSONS, I know that their efforts and actions that were used, were all very DELIBERATE, CALCULATED CRIMES AGAINST each of us, with the FULL INTENTION of TAKING OUR MONEY.

Cash Now Employees Are Victims As Well
#10UPDATE EX-employee responds

As an ex-employee of this company, I can tell you that what David has stated is TRUE. We were all victims of this husband/wife team of professional con artists. And, David did lose his job standing up for the rights of people who were scammed. None of the employees of this company had any idea what was really going on. Employees from offices in Canada and Fort Lauderdale were left without being paid, no taxes were ever filed, we can't collect unemployment and have not been compansated. We were all left in dire situations. The people to blame are Miro and Andrea Zecevic. They took from loads of money from unsuspecting people. They conned people into investing 100,000s of thousands of dollars and left them with nothing as well. They continue to live their lavish lifestyle, and now have left both Canada and the U.S. to continue this scam in European countries.

Hi Renita I never signed any agreements
#10UPDATE EX-employee responds

That could be as I do remember Gary being away at one point and being asked to sign an Invitation for him. However, I never signed any agreements, I probably signed your Invitation, which was something I never did but I guess your invitation was a rare case. I was never a manager for the company, nor did I have approval or authority to sign agreements. I knew that there were at times some logistical difficulties with regards to finding good locations etc. Which any business could encounter but had no clue that people were not receiving their equipment and things they paid for. until I heard about a client of my own who had a similar situation to yours. I then discussed it with another sales rep who also had an upset client. Once that came to attention that's when our concerns were addressed and you now know the outcome.
I would like you to know that it is not only licensees that have a problem with Mr. Zecevic, I have learned that Miro never remitted our payroll taxes and employment insurance. When he fired us, I wanted to collect employment insurance but couldn't because he never remitted it. I ended up living off of credit cards with a new born baby and family to support. To this day I haven't received my record of employment papers after numerous requests and emails that Miro blatantly ignored. I would like you to know that I am very sorry to hear about your situation and wish that the outcome was different.

David, you signed my Contract with ATMBusiness for Gary McNulty

Tue, January 17, 2006
Gary McNulty was going out of town, or on vacation during the time my Contract was being processed. Gary McNulty gave your name as his contact while he was gone. In Gary McNulty's absence you were my contact and we did speak once or twice about my contract. You signed my contract and mailed it back to me on behalf of Gary McNulty. This is why your name has been mentioned in my complaint. It is very unfortunate you and the other employees you referred to, did not leave this Company before your involvement caused so much damage to so many people like myself.

Sorry to hear about your story
#10UPDATE EX-employee responds
Sun, January 15, 2006
My name is David, I can understand that you are upset and I'm very sorry to hear about your story. However, including employees of the company is unfair and your comments are unjust. I have no idea why you included me in this. If you are who I think you are; I never dealt with you, you happened to speak with me once when Paul Gold was absent. I left Cash Now over 8 months ago, specifically for reasons that relate to your story and others that were quite similar. I and another sales rep actually stood up for individuals in your same predicament and Miro fired us in retaliation. You are probably right about many things but I just want you to know that none of the employees that Cash Now employed are to blame. They were all good honest people just like yourself that were also taken advantage of.
