this company for houndreds of thousands of dollars have been
reporting to freedomlist for weeks - and being removed for some
reason. You should not support this mistreatment and deceitful
practice. It's not morally responsible of you. The other half of
this reasoning is pure logic. This company is poorly run and
unstable. The CEO has numerous lawsuits against him (

http://snurl.com/l8b ) and cannot manage his
money(http://snurl.com/l8c ). The CEO is under investigation by the
FBI ( http://snurl.com/l8d ) and suspected of improper privacy acts
( http://www.badbusinessbureau.com/view.asp?id=2802 ). Nobody has
yet looked into Dot1web's licensing practices With evidence that the
man behind Webwide ISP is immoral and a potential criminal, are you
excited that this company has your credit card number and your
personal information? "

Dot Fraud?
Dot1web
Dot1web laid off its entire staff,
has been evicted from its building, and now the CEO is under
investigation by the FBI. Despite this, the CEO claims everything is
okay. Evidence is building that he's a scam artist and has done this
before with lowestbids.com, Drive4U and other businesses.

Dot1web, Inc.
Phones are constant busy, no

numbers just ring forever with no answer. Stopped by the company HQ
offices in Incline Village today and the company is gone. They were
there last week and disappeared over the weekend. They either moved
or ran for the hills. I have heard they have been having issues
raising cash lately to pay the bills and the employees.

Laid-off employees left out in the
cold
http://www.dot1web.com/
The consensus of a
group of former employees with Dot1web was they could better accept
having been laid off if their employer had been straightforward with
them. A group of about 10 former employees carpooled to their
employer's Incline Village office Friday hoping to pick up the wages
owed them after the Internet-based company laid them off shortly
before Christmas. When they got to the building at 926 Incline Way
at about noon, they found a locked door with an eviction notice
taped to it. Washoe County Constable Joe Kubo said he got to the
office at about 9:45 a.m. to implement the forced eviction of
personnel ordered by the 2nd District Court in Reno.

Dot1Web
The events
of the past few years have certainly diminished our ability to trust
Corporations. Did anybody see Dot1Web?s CEO, Bob Demaio in the paper
recently? Was anyone suckered in by those claims of assets and
valuation? Christ, even former Enron CEO, Kenneth Lay was at home
screaming "bull$%@#!" Over the past year, our confidence in the
basic institutions of society has suffered blow after blow. The
dotcom collapse taught us we can't trust the stock market. Dot1Web
taught us we can't trust the regulators who are supposed to
supervise it. The one I really want to see in the hot seat is Bob
Demaio, the guy who apparently pulled all those financial deals,
with Freedom Motorcycles, that read like Chinese pig Latin. Forget
the judicial system, I want to see this guy worked over by a
gauntlet of laid-off Dot1Web employees armed with barbed clubs and
junior high anatomy manuals. Demaio should be walking like the guy
in the Levis Super Bowl commercial. Magical commodity that is
difficult to earn and easy to lose, and a healthy skepticism will
always be needed to help you avoid getting conned, because people
like Demaio will always produce more crap than a herd of Holsteins
grazing in a prune field. I believe it is not enough to point
fingers, we must learn from Mr. Demaio as well. With Dot1web execs
hiding losses like they were frozen Three Musketeer bars in Anna
Nicole Smith's house, to their CFO shredding paper like Captain Hook
rolling a joint, Nevadans are finally putting Demaio under the
microscope and they still can't see their investments. Hey, if you
were pulling in ten figures a year, and you started to see your
dynasty crumble like a Ritz cracker in Jiminy Glick's back pocket,
wouldn't you cook the books at 451 degrees Fahrenheit, but you
really don?t even have to cook the books anymore, you just have to
simmer them, because in the present-day looking glass, Dot1web?s
accounting practices read, ?Red is the new black?. Throughout the
80's and 90's, CEO's were treated like rock stars. Unfortunately,
we've now reached the point on Behind The Music where the ominous
voice says, "But just then, Dot1Web CEO, Bob Demaio, decided they
needed to go out for more beer..." I don't want to see Mr. Demaio
going to jail for three years a minimum-security prison that doubles
as a Country Club during the day. I want Demaio and his clan to
witness the damage that they caused up close. I think they should be
sentenced to community service sorting the shoe bin at the local
Salvation Army in a low-income neighborhood to get a sense of how
real people have to get by. Make Mr. Demaio work the drive-thru at
Jack In The Box so I can literally hear that lying bastard's voice
coming out of a clown's mouth. Just don't drive away without
checking that you got everything you ordered because you will
probably get screwed in the drive through. What I'd actually like to
see is these guys do hard time in hard prison. See how they like it
when we let the warden get creative with the books keeping their
sentences. You want to make sure this doesn't happen again, put
these losers in with the general population who are doing 10-20 for
stealing a scintilla of what these guys did. Then make sure there is
a live "Big Brother" shower-cam feed into every CEO's office in the
country. Executives are going to think twice about cheating the
numbers as well as your employees and investors, when they spot
their CFO all lathered up with a windchime hangin' from his rear
end. That?s just the way I see it.

INVESTOR COMMUNICATIO
DOT1WEB
Mr. Robert C. DeMaio, Good afternoon
Bob, my name is John P. Haggerty. I'm sure my name doesn't ring any
bells for you, but if you would look through your past actions
files, you should find that we have a business contract that hasn't
been fulfilled accordingly. I have in my possession, a generic loan
agreement that was signed by me Feb. 12, 2002 and signed by you Feb.
15, 2002. The loan was to be used by you for the buyout of
LowestBids.com Inc. The terms of the loan agreement was that it
would be paid back to me six months from the date of the loan, which
would have been August 15, 2002. The signed agreement also states
that it would be paid in full plus 10% interest. Mr. DeMaio, The
contract says that if the buyout was successful, that I would be
paid back within 30 days of the said purchase. It also states that I
would have the option to convert any or all of the loan into shares
of the new company, at 5 cents a share. The loan agreement states
that this loan is personally guaranteed by any and all assets of
Robert DeMaio. Agreed and accepted, signed and dated by both you and
myself. Mr. DeMaio, I first want to tell you that I am a honest, God
fearing, Christian man, and in no way want to lead you to think I am
calling anyone in your corporation a crook. However, it seems to
appear that myself and no doubt many others in the big get rich
scheme that was proposed to us by yourself and your business
companions, have been left out in the cold while you still have not
fulfilled your legal obligation to us. Well Mr. DeMaio, it is now
December 21, 2002, and I have yet to hear anything from you or your
business accomplices, and now I wish to ask you for an honest answer
that can make me feel good about this Christmas season. Mr. DeMaio,
I'd like you to know that I am currently a member of the U.S. Armed
Forces, Army National Guard, and I wait each day knowing that soon I
will be called to leave my family and go over seas to fight against
someone who they tell me is my enemy. Will you personally explain to
me why I have been forgotten about in the big rush of getting rich?
I wait each day for my call to go over seas to fight against the
enemy over there, when I find my real enemy is here in the states.
Maybe to people such as yourself the amount of money I've loaned in
good faith to you isn't much. But to people like myself, it is part
of a life savings account that won't be replaced unless you come
clean with your intentions stated in the signed loan agreement. Mr.
DeMaio, I am a fair and honest man and want to give you the benefit
of the doubt. So what I am going to do, is send you a copy of this
letter to you and a copy of the signed loan agreement by both you
and myself by a FAX. This way in the possible cause that you may
have lost your copy, you will now have a copy of our signed
agreement. Mr. DeMaio, I hope you can receive this with an open mind
on my part. As a member of the military who is spending Christmas
knowing that in a few short weeks I may be called away from my loved
ones, it would be a real Christmas blessing knowing that this loose
end has been tied up and secured. Sincerely, John P. Haggerty Fisrt
Sergeant, US ARMY National Guard

us from retreiving any of our personal belongings. BTW,this company
has no legal software,does all of it development on stolen copies
and creked licenses. "Hello, Microsoft!"
