GetFugu is an incorporated investment scam that is a replay of what the founders have done in London, New York, Atlanta, and now LA. Google Carl Freer and Rich Jenkins and you will see that these two Swedish scam artists have done this before under different company names. I am one of many contractors who never got their final check (in fact, no contractor has ever got their final check). It was actually a spoken policy from Rich Jenkins to someone in accounting NOT to pay contractors up to date. Now, (03/16/2010), the company is in a miserable state and employees are over 1 month behind in Pay. Carl Freer has siphoned the investments funds into his international accounts and is living rich while all his employees suffer (many who are from India on h1B and student visas, with no where else to turn). Funny that the IRS and FBI have not nailed them for scamming so many people, companies, and even government agencies. BTW their next scam will be in China. So many lawsuits against them that this is their last US venture.

If you or other current or past GetFugu employees or contractors have legitimate and verifiable claims or if you have specific information on Carl Freer, Richard Jenkins, Roger Davis or others that in or around the GetFugu operation contact gotfugu4u@gmail.com ATTN: Julian. All contacts will be held in the strictest of confidence.

We staffed promotional models for Getfugu March 23-25 for the CTIA show in Las Vegas. They still owe us $4,178 and do nothing but give us the run around. We paid our models promptly, and are still waiting payment, and do not believe Getfugu ever intended on paying us the balance. We would love to sue this company and expose them for who they are. We have dealt with Jamie Barker, Georgeanna Ubois, Carl Freer, Roger Davis, and a few others. Someone stop them, this has severely hurt our business!!
