Deadbeat client played bigshot and hired our company to undertake drafting for his lame-ass design of a building for a third party of the Martin Arike's own exposure. When project was completed, issued and billed, Martin Arike (deadbeat client) instructed additional changes. They were completed, issued and billed. Collecting is the only problem with this piece of woirk. At first the story was that Martin's client was issued the invoices, no problem as this weasel was playing him for another project. He was conning everyone including the end user. Then the weasel said he would talk with them and work it out... nothing. Weeks and months go by and then he tells us tha his client was actually our client... not him. Martin Arike continued to hunt for excuses. The weasel, cockroach behavior continued. further to that Martin Arike (weasel scum-bag extraordinaire) then claimed that we represented ourselves as something we were not which was somehow his present excuse for not paying his bill. From there Martin Arike (mega-loser du jour) proceed to attempt at obfuscating his obligations by sicking an association on us falsely representing events. Stay away from this con man. He is always working an angle trying to get others to pay for his little-minded ideas, initially presenting himself as all that and slowly weaseling out of his obligations. Avoid at all cost, ours is not the only case of being burned. He has left a trail of shoddy deals in his wake. Martin Arike is a thief of the major order.
