Well, I registered for Pacer and paid about $20 bones to read the entire lawsuit filings associated with Detroit Phone…they are all in PDF files and I’m not able to copy and paste…but it was most informative. If anyone else wants to do the same…please do to confirm. The short version….A Mr. Scott Schweber, who was linked to some litigation scams of Mr. Wael Khatib in the late 90’s apparently got scammed himself by Mr. Khatib.
In 2003, Mr. Schweber issued advances in Mr. Khatib’s name and in return, Mr. Khatib issued promissory notes, in the same time frame, to Mr. Schweber that he eventually defaulted on.
Fast forward to early 2006…
U Call Communications was an entity that Mr. Khatib set up and he petitioned Detroit Phone Card, Inc. about setting up a cellular network. DPC would support the financing of the new business. In the midst of negotiating with a company called T-Core for the network “switch”, Mr. Khatib showed blank DPC checks to T-Core as proof that they, U Call and DPC were ready to deal in cash. The checks were blank, no signature, no amount, no date. Apparently, during the same time, Mr. Khatib was negotiating to get his new company up and running, Mr. Schweber contacts him and threatens filing a lawsuit. Mr. Khatib then frauduantly issues several of DPC checks and forges DPC’s CEO signature and post dates the checks. DPC is notified by their bank that these checks are being presented for payment, at which time, DPC stops payment(s). Mr. Schweber, under oath, acknowledges that he understood that the checks were never intended to be issued to him for payment on the defaulted notes from 2003. Mr. Schweber further acknowledges that he knows he has limited chance of collecting on the promissory notes from Mr. Khatib and his company, therefore decided to go forward and include DPC in the suit.
Fast forward to yesterday…Mr. Khatib and his company, U Call Communications have a motion for default judgment, filed 8/21/07, because they have not made any acknowledgment of the proceedings. Only DPC has contacted the court and submitted their own affidavits and proof of the above findings. Motion to dismiss has been submitted by DPC. Will keep checking the Pacer site for additional filings.
