Tech Wildcatters Gabriella Draney Zielke John Reed Tech Wildcatters bounced checks and we never got our investment Dallas Texas
I am the co-founder of a startup company that was lied to and cheated by Tech Wildcatters.
Like kbushe who posted a ripoff report yesterday, I had a similar experience at Tech Wildcatters. Tech Wildcatters, if you are reading this you should know a bunch of the startups are talking. We let each other know the lies you spread and how you try to manipulate and deceive us. Those of us that can afford lawyers are getting them.
The CEO, Gabriella Zielke, never upheld the agreement she signed with any of us. Her customer service is a joke, and she have absolutely no right to be providing any advice or anything to any startup. She is a fake entrepreneur that has never had any success other than making it through bankruptcy court. Her bankruptcy and the lawsuits about her other companies that all failed have been all over email and text messages. This isn't her first scam or ripoff.
Most mentors have left, and the investors aren't investing. Free legal and accounting never happened, and all we get is the runaround when it comes to the free flights. I think Gabriella used all of the free flights traveling all over the world getting drunk and taking bikini selfies.
My company had to threaten to go to the press before she gave us our money. Even that took 2 months. That seems to be the only thing that gets her attention. And men, be careful. She is quick to play the masogynist and sexual harassment card.
Other companies have not been so lucky. Tech Wildcatters still owes at least 6 companies their level up checks. We suspect Tech Wildcatters is broke which is why they have not paid or why checks to TIGLI, ALTO, TELECALM have bounced. Everyone knows that LOCAL ADVENTURES, TECH EDVENTURES, and LA GIOIA never got their $100,000 even though Gabriella was quick to put it all over the internet they had made level 5. They got nothing, so the Gauntlet and the Tech Wildcatters contract and website are nothing but lies.
Some of us are meeting with the new CEO, Ricky Tejapaibul trying to get our money or our stock back. Ricky was one of the few mentors that stuck it out this year, but he doesn't have a lot of experience so not much help there. I hope his rich investor claims are true so he can pay us what we are owed and do the right thing.
We are worried those investor claims are not true because he put the offices up for rent on Craigslist and Groupon. Why rent out the place to strangers if you are a rich investor and have commitments from other investors like he said in the D Magazine article? By the way, those are the same offices that we were supposed to get for free that we never got. They even tried to charge us for the office. Another violation of the contract. They have the nerve to rent it on Craigslist and Groupon for a lower price than they offered to us. What a ripoff.
