    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

You should call your local NEWS show. They eat stories like this for breakfast.

I'm betting Mrs. Werner would be more than happy to deal with you once her business starts getting bad press.
 
scum bag

The facts are evident, we can see that Miko isn't going to accomadate anyone when it comes to "business" the only thing he is interested in is his own twisted world of lies, and evil acts. My suggestion to everyone that has been wronged or screwed during dealings with Miko is to use the most accelerated means of justice and continue to pressure him. I am one of the lucky ones that got my deal ammended with little or no problems and I believe it was successful because I was bugging him as much as possible with phone calls, e-mails, posts on this website, and research into his past. There is a trail of crap that is his past- please use it in your dealings with him. The people that are out a large amount should file suites as soon as possible, because the money this guy owes is eventually going to catch up with him.

good luck!
 
For those of you having trouble reaching Miko, try calling him at the dogs for independence numbers which are posted on his site : Dogs for Independence Inc. 3955 n Prospect ave Shorewood he is treasurer ( no really )

Come on! Give them the dog back.You can't be that evil. Can you?
 
Look who has resurfaced. With a fancy new web site to boot. What I find odd is he brags on the website that he is breeding geckos now, Mack Snows no less. How the heck did he pass the "interview"?

My company had the misfortune to answer Miko's call requesting rodent caging so he could ramp up operations for a "national supply contract with Petco" he had recently won. Trusting him to his word and promise to execute a irrevocable letter of credit we took his PO and hurried to send him 25 ventilated mouse and rat racks. What an error of naivete. It's now 6 months later, Miko owes us $78,500. He has yet to make a single payment as he has repeatedly promised and continues to dodge phone calls from us and our attorney. After some google sleuthing we've found others in similar situations including his dentist, who had to take him to small claims court for a paltry $900. A word to the wise. Get payment up front, or even smarter, don't answer the phone.

For those still trying to collect, take note of the different phone number.
 
Well, it is very unfortunate that with as many people as Miko and/or his family seems to take advantage of or just plain rip off, he still seems to be in business.

How pathetic! Hopefully, anybody that is about to be ripped off by him will have enough sense to look him up here. I know of 4 people just locally that have passed on doing business with him because of his horrendous reputation!! And that does not include myself who passed on associating with him and starting this thread.

Hey Miko,
Any idea how much burning people has cost you so far? Jeeeeesh... what a :dunce: !!!!!
