Um,
um so i go out i paid all these guys to do a marketing campaign you know they sent me all the information on the company i did a write-up um so i go out on it and it's literally the day the stock market crashed so these guys assume that i robbed them they thought i just took the money and didn't do any marketing i'm like you can't you can't control the stock market exactly like i'm
Yeah, so these guys took it personal, and they're like, we want our money back.
I said, I can get some money back, but some of these guys went out on it.
There's no guarantee in the stock market.
So I just felt something weird was going to go on.
So literally the next day, I'm getting in my Aston Martin at the gym, super low to the ground, and in the window, in my reflection, I see this SUV parked behind my car, and a big black dude get out.
And so I'm like shutting my door and he goes, hey, man, he goes, are you Ben Port?
And I go, no.
And I go, he goes, what's your name?
I said, Doug Stevens.
Just came up with a name real quick.
And he goes, you sure?
I go, yeah, I know my fucking name.
So I'm driving back home and I tell my wife, he said, don't answer the door.
Like I knew it was from these guys.
Right.
She said, yeah, there's some guy just came here looking for you.
So I call the cops and I'm like, hey, this is what happened.
This deal went bad.
