A refresher

I’m not very good at this web design business. Here’s an update, just to make sure the front page has all the relevant information you might need if you’ve met Greg Blake or Evi Czernecki and you’re trying to decide if you should do business with them or associate them.

Perhaps Greg has told you wild stories you about his military record.
Look for it. Australia has online resources for searching military records. His doesn’t exist. The same goes for his PhD, MFA, and most other degrees he says he has. Perhaps he’s confiding in you that he’s working for the Australian embassy in whatever country he’s in. By all means, call them. It is all lies.

If you live in Cambodia and are thinking of doing business with this man, please make inquiries. There are people in the business community who will warn you about this couple. There are people he has already ripped off. There are people in Thailand he has ripped off. People in Laos.

If you are reading this, and you have questions, and you’re not convinced, please contact me. I can direct you to people who will tell you what it is really like to do business with Greg and Evi. It means losing money, and being associated with a man who left his Lao staff to pay his debts — so I hear from sources in Luang Prabang — to pay his debts when he fled after trying to take tens of thousands of dollars from a project to build dormitories for monks.

If you have a year of your life to throw away, or money to invest in a sham company like Teknomadic, the one he half built and abandoned in Luang Prabang, Laos, by all means, listen. If you don’t, just take a bit of a closer look around the internet — at any sites not created by Greg, that is. And please write to me. I can put you in touch with people who will tell you the truth about this couple.

What to expect if you decide to do business with Greg and Evi

Greg and Evi thought they’d scam the Buddhist community in Luang Prabang, taking $18,000 to do construction work for them and trying to leave the country without finishing (or mostly even starting) it. Frauds.

A trail of debt

I’ve been told that Greg’s staff have had to sell all the stuff he and his partner, Evi Czernecki, left when they skipped town in order to pay off his debts. I don’t know if this is true, but it seems entirely possible.

This is truth behind the guy who is probably telling you he’s only here to give back; that his life is one of service. He seems to have left his Lao laborers to try to make good on his broken promises and unpaid bills.

Dogma, degrees, danger

Ah, yes, he says he has a PhD. It’s a lie. He says he was an SAS sniper, a fighter, a student of Zen; he might talk to you about the (fictional) foster children he’s raised, or his friendships with important people in Australia. It’s mostly bullshit. He’s just trying to rob you or sleep with you.

Favourite topics

In February, out of the blue, I got an email from Greg asking if I was pleased with myself for (in some fashion left, sadly, undescribed) destroying a secret action against human trafficking.

This is not true, of course: not true that I magicked it all the hell and not true that it existed in the first place. (And before you think, “well, maybe… ” —  no. It isn’t. This is an example of the kind of lie he makes up to make you feel guilty and stupid and responsible and cowed, because that’s how he wants you to be.)

He wrote:

“one dead .. one in prison ..  i hope you are proud of the consequences
of your actions.. the route for the export of young women to the US
from lao is open and will continue to function .. fantastic …”

As usual, he doesn’t say anything about what I actually did or could have done to disrupt this grand action. Just that the usual culprit, my “fear,” was enough to gum up the works. My fear has ended up being responsible for a lot of notable events over the past two years, according to Greg. Quite a powerful figure, this fear, able to stop bank transfers with a single tendril; able to smash international coalitions with a breath.

I remember, back when I used to believe him, asking how, how, how this had all happened and what I could have had to do with it, given that  I spent most of my time alone in hotel rooms, telling little white lies to people who were concerned about me. He never had a real response. He just made me feel shitty for not “understanding.”

“.. get on your knees and apiloguse to the
families of the young women whose lives you have ruined with your
fears and pathetic insecurities … you have no idea what you have
done .. the only comfort i take from this is that you will never be
truely free ..”

And an insult at the end. Imagine wanting to make someone feel responsible for something like this — someone who, hours or days before and after, you’ll also claim to love.

Greg Blake2014-05-29 07.43.50

So this guy, Greg Blake, he’s probably living in Southeast Asia. Phnom Penh, it looks like. Maybe you’ve met him, maybe you’re doing a search on this guy who’s been telling you what a special, special being you are, and what a special being he is (like Hanuman, he likes to say). Maybe he’s suggesting you invest in whatever “business” he has going. Maybe he’s just trying to seduce you. Undoubtedly he’s offering you what he thinks you want, and trying, and probably succeeding, in making you think that something you dreamed of, secretly, might be able to come true. Don’t believe him. He’s lying.

I get emails from Greg almost daily.

May 11: “I really am just miserable because you feel tge way you do about me.”
I feel the way I do about him because he lied to me, exposed me to disease, stole from me and wasted a year of my life.

May 5: “Love is not a rational thing …. i dont like what you are but your
essence i would die for….”

He writes a lot about not liking me. He also writes a lot about missing me and loving me. He writes about using a shotgun on me. He describes landscapes that he’s not in, journeys he’s not taking, company he’s not with. He writes even though I’ve asked him to stop. It’s fine. I don’t mind fielding or deleting these mad messages. I’d just like to spare someone else from ending up in the same position.
