Complaint Review: Damien Grider

Damien Grider (A.I.D. Capital, LLC) has ripped me off $200 for services rendered and has not responded to repeated phone calls and text messages.  Initially he drafted me a check for $500 that bounced several days after deposit and prior to the bad check asked me if I was able to receive it ok (first red flag).  Unknowingly to me the check bounced the following week at which point I advised that he needed to get me the money in addition to bounce check fees.  After going back and forth for days and advising if he did not provide the funds I would go to ripoff report he deposited cash in the amount of $312 and stated he believed he deposited $512.  Two days later I get a copy of the deposit slip via my bank showing $312 and emailed him a copy and stated he needed to provide the remaining $200.  Over a week later he has not made up the difference and has stopped responding even via text.  Lesson here is to always wait until a check clears before providing any services and watch for any words or actions early in business dealings that may show a lot of stress down the road.  Right now Damien Grider owes me $200 and has not returned phone calls or text messages.  Also Damien Grider stated repeatedly he was in meetings and would call me back after the meeting, "was on his way to the bank," and "was traveling and would take care of it when get got back" all excuses as there was zero followup to these phrases.
