WARNING: AN INTERNET FRAUDSTER AND VICIOUS LUNATIC!

This warning is particularly important for the collectors of German,
Austro-Hungarian, Hungarian and Polish militaria. The person in question calls
himself Michael M. van Lauesen, Michael parks Edelstein, Michael Mark
Edelstein but his real name is just Michael Edelstein. A US
citizen by birth (he used to reside in California where he worked as a med
tech),
he lives at present in Budapest, Hungary. He runs an Internet business site at
Bizland.com under the name of Central European Military Antiques (CEMA for
short).
We have reasons to believe that he is now in the process of moving his
business to
iPowerweb.com..
Over the last few years Michael van Lauesen has been banned from Manion's
International, eBay (twice), ePier, all major militaria shows in Hungary, as
well
as from several Internet discussion groups for uttering bomb threats, auction
interference, shilling, mail fraud, common theft, impersonation and malicious
slander. He suffers from acute delusional paranoia which makes him accuse
various
militaria collectors and dealers of belonging to an "Internet mafia" which
supposedly sells fake badges, etc. He is also a compulsive liar and thief.
For more details about his latest scams and their victims please go to:

Still more information can be found by running a Google search under
"Michael van
Lauesen".
Van Lauesen/Edelstein's growing notoriety may eventually force him to go
underground, or assume a different pseudonym. In this case, watch out for the
following telltale signs:
- a general delivery/poste restante address in Budapest or generally in
Hungary;
- personal email address ending in "datanet.hu";
- seller mostly offers German, Hungarian, Austrian and Polish militaria;
- seller offers a vanity press publication about the Austro-Hungarian
military aviation badges;
- his writing style is full of cheap claque; quite often his spelling
is very poor and his sentence structure faulty to the point of gibberish;
- his website may contain a number of rambling and progressively more and more
incoherent rants about "eScam" (meaning eBay), "Internet mafia", "Hungarian
mafia", "vanity page", "totally fleeced", etc.;
- he may also post some of his more "normal" texts on the Hungarian
1921 pilot's badge, Austria's highest honor (the Order of Maria Theresa),
Austro-Hungarian Naval Air Service 1910-1918, the death's heads (on the
Hungarian para badges), etc.
Remember: if you don't want to lose your money and get publicly slandered
as well, keep away from this individual! Michael M. van Lauesen is one of
the worst creeps on the Net. Please feel free to copy and post this warning
wherever you think necessary.

http://thelandfarcewebsite.blogspot.com/ In this blog Mr. Edelstein
slandered Peter Czink The head of the Hungarian Veterans Society in Vancouver
and Bill Combs the President of the OVMS (ohio valley military society)



Michael M. Edelstein left Hungary because he was caught by legitimate
vendors and people looking to buy authentic Austro-Hungarian Military
Memorabilia. He is also wanted by Interpol in Germany. For these reasons he
went back to California and applied for a job and was hired by Warner
Brothers. After things did not go his way he was fired. He then went on a
campaign to defame one of the world’s largest and well known film studios. He
blames Warner Brothers see (http://theweinerbrothersvptour.blogspot.com/).

As you will see for yourself how deep Michael Edelstein’s Psychological
problems are. On his Weiner Brother blogs you will hear him call himself
Steven King, this is not only a sign of mental illness but a way to defame
and impersonate a very famous novelist. You will also see that he has made a
blog called http://savingmike.com/ where he is begging for Money. WHAT A
LOOSER!!!!

only the text is left.



In 2006 after saving up enough money to come back to Hungary to try to scam
some more people out of their hard earned money with his phony military
Memorabilia, it was unsuccessful. After a year of trying to scam people
unsuccessfully he became desperate and in more debt. Having a so called
friend that worked for WBFI, and getting as much inside information out of
that person. He applied for a job with WBFI (Wealth Builder Financial
International) with the intent to extort the owner knowing that Ms. Judy
Jackson worked with a very large amount of Investors. Judy Jackson the owner
of WBFI invited Michael Edelstein for Easter Dinner with the rest of the WBFI
employees to see what kind of personality Michael had. During Easter dinner
Michael disappeared. One of the employees with WBFI found him upstairs in Ms.
Jackson’s bedroom trying to hack into her computer he was caught red handed.
He was then escorted from the premises and was screaming franticly like a
lunatic “I am going to put your company out of business if you don’t pay me”
he then left. The following week Michael Edelstein was waiting outside WBFI
headquarters for Ms. Jackson. He approached Ms. Jackson with verbal threats
and demands. Ms. Jackson told him that she had already gone to the
authorities then Michael fled the scene. According to the police he had left
the country the next day. The following week he had started his campaign to
try to put WBFI out of business by slandering, libel and defamation of
character via posting and blogging all over the internet.

If you have gone to his websites about WBFI you will notice that they are
all blogged and posted by the same person. He goes under the name
fjohnson77[at]yahoo.co.uk,(wbfi) mrmajestic66yahoo.com (mrmajestic66)and his
next posting might be under the alias dockers442000[at]yahoo.com (mrmajestic).
WBFI has been pursuing legal action against Michael Edelstein for his crimes,
and he is now running from the law.


However, it is small comfort to know that Michael Edelstein cannot function
as a normal man, but must live in a foggy fantasy surrounded by crime and
intrigue. If you would like to see what this lunatic has written about WBFI
please use caution I have noticed several viruses on his postings about WBFI.
For any Employer or individual in contact with Michael Edelstein should use a
great deal of caution.



YOU MIGHT BE THE NEXT VICTIM!!!!!
