Mark Joshua Cartier ShuttlePod Show The Search for Trek Scammed >1000 people on Patreon Internet
Report Attachments
Mark Cartier has scammed all patreons of the Shuttlepod Show (viewable on youtube where it credits over 1,000 people as patreons of the show). The actors, guests, and behind the scenes crew never received any benefits given to the show. Mark Carrier managed all the incoming assets, told actors that there was no money, and never paid his assistants.
Worse, he committed fraud against anyone who supported the show. We believed that our donations went toward filming and cast income. No one ever received payments.
Manny supporters, including myself, gave $20,000 or more per month, plus various items that Cartier claimed the show needed to be produced, with the explicit expectation of several benefits listed by member tier, and a viewable episode weekly. Cartier has produced nothing since January 2024. Personally, I have I've lost $1,500 worth of cash and goods to this fraudster!
Now, the show is no longer being produced because the actors left abruptly because of Cartier's failure to pay them from the money given him by patreon members. Many members have annual subscriptions, payment in advance, that they cannot get back They are unable to reclaim that cash from Cartier nor any of the benefit items due them per the show's agreement.
Cartier has now changed the name of this Patreon endeavor to 'The Search for Trek'. Is he attempting to cover his tracks?
Nothing has been produced by Cartier since January 2024, not will Cartier ever give content that the fans are expecting and due. Most likely, he has spent everything. Changing the name is very suspicious behavior.
If you are current members of either of these parreon accounts, please file fraud claims! Carrier has been doing this to people for many, many years!
Report him to Patreon. ASAP! They will need proof of criminal activity. Point them to his appearance on "Hot Bench" in 2019, 2020. Also, lookup his real charge of Grand Theft and Spousal abuse on Criminal records.
Your generosity has been abused. Don't give this man anymore money!
