I've seen a lot of comments about trying to catch up with "Lance" - I'm curious, was he ever arrested? was his true identity ever established? I'd love to know if anything ever happened to him.

My name just happens to be Lance Morris. I got a letter from an attorney in Orange County yesterday offering to represent me in a civil case which had been filed against me several days before. I knew something was amiss when the amount of the suit was $8 million. My lawyer friend looked it up for me and said that it was for Lance O. Morris. I was quite relieved.

I worked for Lance WAY back in the day when he was still operating under the 'merchant services' DBA, under another company name called Northwest LLC (how many has he gone through now? I've seen at LEAST 6-8 in google searches and listed on here). This was back around 2000/2001 era...
I started with Mr Morris right after he relocated from Portland to Phoenix. I quickly found out that yes, he was very verbally abusive, paid me utter crap (I was not only their system / network administrator, deskside support, but also the installation tech for their sales of Nurit terminals).
Thankfully I only worked for him for about 5 months, when I got an offer for a better job. When he found out, he screamed at me for going behind his back, told me to pack my s**t and get out of the f'ing building or he'd call security and have me arrested for tresspassing... whatever, I was done with him.
a few days later, I got a phone call from him. He only asked 'did you seriously think you would get away with it?' I asked him what he was talking about, and he said 'yeah right. see you in court.'
Found out a couple weeks later when I got a letter from AIG, his insurance company. he'd filed a FALSE insurance claim naming me as someone who had 'keyed' his car... yeah, his $125,000 ugly as hell (to me anyway) banana yellow lexus.
I called the police, and asked about the details of the report # I'd been given by AIG when I spoke to them. They found the report, and had apparently been told by Lance that there was a security video from the underground parking that had all the evidence. The police had tried following up with the parking administration and with Lance; there was no security tape from the parking admin, and Lance stopped answering their calls. After I told AIG that I was going to get a lawyer involved to stop them putting this on my credit, they quickly stepped down, paid him off, and stopped contacting me. I really wish I would have had the resources and the time to follow up on it, filing a false police and insurance claim would have landed him in jail earlier.
I ran into a mutual ex-employee a few months later, who told me the real story about what happened. Apparently after I 'quit/got fired', Lance got EXTREMELY upset, took one of the younger sales guys with him down to the garage, and explained to him that he had SEEN me damage his car, and he'd testify to that in court, or lose his job. When I ran into him, he was working as a waiter at an upper-scale pizza place, and told me he was SEVERELY more happy doing that job than he EVER was working for Lance.
I will say that back in the early days, my paychecks never bounced... we had a controller then (Brad I think his name was) that apparently tried to run the books honestly, but I don't think he lasted much longer than I did.
Just to wrap this up, yes, Lance was up to all these tricks for over a decade, probably much more when he was working out of Portland, Oregon. I actually did checks back then, and found he had F ratings with the portland BBB from unresolved complaints, ripoff alerts, deceptive marketing and ambiguous contracts.
I wish I could have written this report years ago, but not sure if this site existed back then, and if it did, I didn't know about it. Please avoid working for, or doing business with Lance Morris at all costs, especially to your wallet.
.... if I just read something else i found correctly, did I find out that he FINALLY got arrested and is in Jail?
Ill find him

To the person who wrote on behalf of Joe B. Please stop. I am in no way affiliated with this website except at this point when this post came to my attention. I did work for Lance at Alphacard. We had our differences and that was that. I have no ill will towards Lance or Alphacard.
I wish Lance all the best of luck and continued success.

Everyone: Lance reads this stuff and takes it quite personally. Want him to cry, whine, punch holes in walls, drive his car drunk or generally be 1000% of the d****ebag we know Lance O. Morris IS? Post here with more details. Details like the community service he's had to do to get out of prosecution on booze-related charges. (Yeah, big shock, he's meaner when he drinks if you could imagine that possible!) He thinks he's really sly by not having his name on Alphacard. - maybe Wynn won't find him to get the big bucks back, I don't know... His present business is registered as: http://starpas.azcc.gov/scripts/cgiip.exe/WService=wsbroker1/officer-detail.p?corp-id=R15011918 It's probably still known as Alphacard. How does it work? Numbers. Make thousands and thousands of calls to businesses in selected categories that are likely to be owned by small businessmen. Medical and dental practices are especially welcome. There's a leasing company in collusion. MBF Leasing, that is. They don't care that the price of the hardware "sold" is 10x higher than in the real world. They're happy to extend a lease to whatever sucker Lance's callers get on the hook. The script use is just a SHADE on the side of legal. "Yes we're calling on behalf of VISA/Mastercard?" Lots of doubletalk (read:bullshit) follows about discounts, tiers, whatever. The process? Hook the shill. Sign the shill. Run their credit. MBF assigns a score to their credit A-B-C-D. A is highest and can be a couple thousand bucks in Lance's pocket. B, C and D are lower credit scores and lower upfront payments in Lance's pocket. A/B/C/D credit = big kickback to Lance. MBF is a fine, upstanding NYC-based firm :) that frequently is advertising for bill collectors. The shill really *does* get evaluated for the opening of a new merchant account by the "real" Alphacard - a processing firm near Philly. It is impossible for the management of Alphacard to NOT realize how ethically-challenged their representatives may be. That's PART of the way Lance makes his money. So the formula is: (Market Retail Price of processing machine x 10)+ (Outrageous lease spiff) - ((commissions) - operating costs) = money left over for Lance to spend on cars, @ bars... and on lawyers to keep him out (so far) of Federal PMITA Prison. The rest of the story: employees generated those sales and they're due commissions, right? Why, of course. All of that "unlimited" (sound familiar) commission money can be kept inside of the shell corporation by finding ways to fire the staff that generated it. If you've been victimized by Lance, do what I do: keep an eye on the individual states' departments of Corrections as well as the Federal Bureau of Prison records. They're online. And let's face it: it's tough being behind bars! If I were to find Lance O. Morris with DOB 4/21/66 - I'd immediately find someone with the bad luck to be locked up with Lance and send commissary. Anything to make that person's life better and help them help me to say HI to Lance, every so often. HI LANCE! Love, Dani

Lance has been sueing his ex-employees for all different reasons. The dang part about it is that no matter how much consumers and ex-employees file legitimate complaints, he continues to avoid serious prosecution or arrest from the state and federal government for his illegal business practices. He is a crook. All of his business practices are built upon deception of the consumer with phony spreadsheets that show a cost savings that never materializes. He has bi-polar tendancies and has no problem with screaming on top of his lungs at his employees. He has made it a practice to higher young and naive women so that he has a ready supply of sex toys and at times has refused to hire minorities. I find it funny that he has a huge debt to a well known casino in Las Vegas and yet he walks around free as a bird. At least he is losing his house at 6644 E Indian Bend Road, Paradise Valley, 85253. Idiot owes $4,450,000. Lance is a walking soap opera and time bomb. Karma is watching him and I know he will get his. It is just a matter of time.

I worked there when it was PSA and Aliant. I too was there for the manager assulting. I randomly decided to look him up on here to see if he was in jail yet. I could not believe he is still pulling his usual scam. I wrote a report a while back about this place. How is Lance not in prison???? Any ex employees can contact me on here at anytime.
