First Sims Bank is a Scam!

by Alphaville Herald on 09/04/04 at 11:36 pm

In a shocking pre-election development, we can now confirm that the First Sims Bank, run by Dre Jeffries, and endorsed and prominently featured on the Alphaville Government Web site, is a scam bank! In this case we have first hand knowledge. Urizenus himself had 500K on deposit with the bank and has been trying to retrieve it for months now — each time being rebuffed by Mr. Jeffries (the most recent attempt being today). Reached for comment about the bank, Mr-President claimed that he had heard rumors that the bank was a scam, and had investigated the bank, but assured himself it was legit. Well, once again Mr-President has shown questionable judgement in who he associates with. First, consulting with a leading mafia leader about voting security, and now listing a scam bank as an insitution supported by the AVG. Political consequences aside: stay clear of Dre Jeffries!

    Dre scammed me way back when also, out of a mere 11k. I was a newbie then, so it was a lot to me. I gave it to him, for a money transfer, and then later on, when nobody was doing anything about my transfer, told him, and he said that I never gave him any. ::sigh:: Kind of sounds like one of Van’s temporary idiot roomies..eh?

    The comments Included above are Faulse and Untrue, I cant sue you all for Liable. (Printed Material of slandering my name)

    In the incident with Urensies, he had supposible Changed his Sims name, In addition to not knowing his old sims name, he also did not know his first sims bank account number nor Email address it was registered under. So in this case, I was unable to allow (whoever he was to withdeaw 500k).

    Then also, on the topic of the Scamming for Real Money, That is also 100% False. I would not jeopardise my Real Life, Real Home , Nor Real family, for TSO related Issues.

    Further more, you all may belive what you wish, but I nolonger Play TSO, But all of the money has been given to Thesimsofrage.com if you would like any more Information regarding this, Please feel free to contact them.
