Steve Steve Villanueva Of Gente Bien Magazine, Wherewasi.com , Hollywood Talent And Associates Lied about distribution, over charged, misled SCAM ARTIST San Diego California
Steve Villanueva of Gente Bien Magazine, wherewasi.com , Hollywood Talent and Associates Is well known for ripping off models, promoting night clubs, fashion photographer and media scams with the newest venture Gente Bien Magazine. Steve squats in a dirt hole strip mall in Clairmont, San Diego. I was a friend of his about 6 months ago and gave him some of my business contacts to advertise to and he mislead each and every one of them and had taken monies from them.
Isreal Rivera aka Rivers is one of San Diego's biggest scam artists who takes money for advertising in a magazine that is franchised to a man in Canada who had it stolen from him by Israel Rivers aka Rivera. To top that off he has not published for almost one year and continues to take monies, hire people without paying them and creating vendor bills without paying them and failing to produce any magazine.
He also fails to report any of his income and the IRS is looking for him. He has so many lawsuits against him they are like ants crawling from the walls. He is homeless and lives in the office that he squats in at 3200 Adams ave suite 103 and 105 he will never answer the door because he is a hunted man for so many reasons.
He was convicted of assault and battery and is on probation. He is a known felon. He never pays any of his sales people and sexually abuses them. He is the worst kind of predator there is. Police are looking for him and many of us in Canada and the US hope there is an arrest soon. If you know of his many crimes please call the San Diego District Attorney's office for a complaint to add to the many crimes that he has committed.
Grand theft
Forgery
Racketeering
assault
battery
merchant theft
petty theft
bad checks
bank fraud
they are so many to mention we are sure you will have your own
also Barter of America is a fake company not registered to do business in California and is operating illegally and the checks he writes are fake and bogus and cannot be cashed or traded and are a violation of the treasury departments rules and complaints are filed.
This guy needs some training on what the rules are in America and Canada maybe he will find a safe haven in Mexico where he is wanted by his locals for cheating them only if he goes back they may just take justice into their own hands down there. Please post any and all of your complaints here as well

Gente Bien and Steve Villanueva Victims of Cyber Bullying
#4REBUTTAL Owner of company
Mon, January 26, 2009
GENTE BIEN MAGAZINE is being cyber-stalked and harassed by an unknown individual.
This unknown person is upset- seemingly at Steve Villanueva personally -and none of the claims in this post are true nor do they have anything to do with nor should they reflect upon Gente Bien Magazine.
Steve Villanueva is one of the owners of Gente Bien Magazine, but as any search anywhere will show, there is nothing but praise for Gente Bien other than these anonymous and unsubstantiated internet posts. They appear on different websites with different names from accounts that have only ever posted this one false review. The sole intent of these posts is to defame Steve Villanueva and Gente Bien Magazine.
Neither Gente Bien Magazine nor Steve Villanueva have ever been sued or had a report filed against them by any reputable business association or chamber of commerce or courts of any jurisdiction for any of the claims set forth in these anonymous posts.
Steve Villanueva is not associated with nor works for Hollywood Talent Associates other than knowing the owner of said business. There are no business transactions between these individuals.
Steve Villanueva is not associated with in Israel Rivera any way. In fact, the majority of the post is about Israel Rivera.
Steve Villanueva does not know a Dina Gordon from Corronado, California. No one under the name of Dina Gordon or any other name has supplied Steve Villanueva with business contacts.
This same post is on another website under another false name Susan from Private, Florida.

This same post is on another website under another false name Dina Gordon from Corronado, California. The misspelled place name is an error of the person who opened this false profile.

Gente Bien Magazine is a legitimate and reputable business and but for anonymous cyber-bullying posts, unsubstantiated claims and complete fabrications, Gente Bien Magazine's reputation is spotless.
Anyone who is concerned about this post is welcome to call our offices directly at 619-260-8353 and Steve Villanueva would be happy to discuss this with you personally. Our mailing address is in fact a P.O. Box on Clairemont Drive in San Diego (for safety issues just as this), but we would also be happy to invite you to our real offices to meet in person.
This anonymous person creates multiple anonymous accounts, files false reports and is trying to damage the business. None of these people have ever contacted us directly. Please look at the source of these posts as well as the unsubstantiated facts and please use your best judgment which no doubt lead you to understand that Gente Bien Magazine and Steve Villanueva are victims of cyber bullying and other attempts to ruin the labor of their hard work.
