hello kevin tried to call mike but i think he probably has something worked out that he is nnot suppose to talk to anybody about his status because i used to talk to him but what ever he wants to do . kevin i dont no for sure but i bet that is it . viking has a big surprise coming to them they better do the right thing .
what do they think that if they make good with one person then thats good enough.wrong they are that bill harris did the same with me he said we can help you sell the route. good idea bill but there is one problem you have to scam that buyer also . i was not brought up like that to scam people like viking does .
like i said before god is watching they better do the right thing. kevin i would like to talk to you on the phone about this matter . kevin i would love to go on tv. i am working with an agent to help me with that and you are welcome to join us to the more the merry . i told you they have a big surprise coming.they better do the right thing before its to late. god is watching them.

How to Procede

Hello Gary,
Any clue on how to procede against Viking.
Two weeks now since I spoke with Bill Harris.
Not heard back him or from anyone there.
Do you know how to get in touch with Mike from Tuscon?
We should talk with him to see how he got a refund from these $#%^&& people.

Hello Gary,
I have also fell victim to Viking.
Four months of Bill Harris trying to "sell" my "route" and all that has gotten me is more and more angry.
Before I take a trip up there let me know how your situation is progressing.
Thanks
