नीरज प्रताप सिंह - रीवा का धोखेबाज़ बिल्डर

रीवा और जबलपुर के रियल एस्टेट सेक्टर में एक बड़े घोटाले ने लोगों को हिलाकर रख दिया है। नीरज प्रताप सिंह, जो अर्थ बिल्डर्स एंड डेवलपर्स के मालिक हैं, पर सैकड़ों लोगों को ठगने और उनकी मेहनत की कमाई लूटने का आरोप है। लगभग ₹10-20 अरब रुपये (करोड़ों) के इस घोटाले में नीरज ने मासूम लोगों के साथ उनकी जमीन और सपनों के नाम पर धोखाधड़ी की है।

धोखाधड़ी का तरीका

नीरज प्रताप सिंह का ऑपरेशन बेहद चालाकी से चलता है। वह लोगों को मीठी-मीठी बातों में फंसा कर उनसे बड़ी रकम एडवांस में लेता है। शुरुआत में वह जमीन की रजिस्ट्री और शीघ्र हैंडओवर का वादा करता है। लेकिन एक बार पैसे मिल जाने के बाद, वह और अधिक धनराशि की मांग करने लगता है।

जब खरीदार पूरी रकम चुका देते हैं, तब नीरज अचानक से गायब हो जाता है। वह फोन कॉल्स का जवाब देना बंद कर देता है और किसी से मिलने से इनकार कर देता है। सबसे बड़ी समस्या यह है कि वह कोई कानूनी एग्रीमेंट नहीं देता, जिससे पीड़ितों के पास कानूनी कार्रवाई के लिए ठोस आधार नहीं रहता।

धोखाधड़ी की प्रमुख बातें

कानूनी दस्तावेजों की अनुपस्थिति: पीड़ितों ने बताया कि नीरज कभी भी कोई फॉर्मल एग्रीमेंट या कॉन्ट्रैक्ट नहीं देता।

भुगतान के बाद गायब: पूरी राशि मिलने के बाद वह कॉल्स और मीटिंग्स से बचने लगता है।

स्टाफ में बदलाव: हर महीने स्टाफ बदलकर वह जवाबदेही से बचने की कोशिश करता है।

पीड़ितों की व्यथा

रीवा के एक पीड़ित ने अपनी कहानी साझा की: "मैंने अपनी जिंदगी भर की कमाई नीरज प्रताप सिंह पर भरोसा करके उसे दी। उसने मुझे जमीन देने का वादा किया और कहा कि तीन महीने में रजिस्ट्री हो जाएगी। लेकिन पैसे मिलने के बाद उसने फोन उठाना बंद कर दिया। दो साल हो गए हैं, न मुझे जमीन मिली और न ही मेरे पैसे वापस हुए।"

जबलपुर के एक अन्य पीड़ित ने कहा: "मैंने सोचा था कि मैं अपने परिवार के भविष्य के लिए निवेश कर रहा हूं। लेकिन इसके बजाय मुझे एक ऐसे घोटाले का शिकार होना पड़ा जिसने मेरी पूरी जिंदगी बर्बाद कर दी। नीरज की धोखेबाजी पूरी तरह से आपराधिक है।"

घोटाले का असर

यह घोटाला इतना बड़ा है कि इसके शिकार सैकड़ों परिवार हैं। लोगों ने अपनी जिंदगी भर की कमाई गवां दी है और आर्थिक संकट में फंस गए हैं। इस घटना ने रीवा और जबलपुर में रियल एस्टेट सेक्टर पर लोगों का भरोसा तोड़ दिया है, जिससे ईमानदार बिल्डर्स की छवि भी खराब हुई है।

प्रशासन पर बढ़ा दबाव

जैसे-जैसे यह मामला सार्वजनिक हो रहा है, नीरज प्रताप सिंह के खिलाफ कार्रवाई की मांग तेज होती जा रही है। पीड़ित और सामाजिक कार्यकर्ता प्रशासन से मामले की जांच करने, उसकी संपत्तियां जब्त करने और पीड़ितों को न्याय दिलाने की अपील कर रहे हैं। कानूनी विशेषज्ञों ने भी रियल एस्टेट में धोखाधड़ी रोकने के लिए कड़े नियम लागू करने की आवश्यकता जताई है।

खरीदारों के लिए चेतावनी

यह मामला संभावित खरीदारों के लिए एक गंभीर चेतावनी है। विशेषज्ञ सलाह देते हैं कि:

कानूनी एग्रीमेंट लें: हर लेन-देन क�� कानूनी दस्तावेजों से सुरक्षित करें।

बैकग्राउंड चेक करें: बिल्डर के ट्रैक रिकॉर्ड और प्रमाणिकता की जांच करें।

पूरी राशि एडवांस में न दें: बिना रजिस्ट्री या कानूनी गारंटी के पूरा भुगतान न करें।

आगे का रास्ता

पीड़ितों को न्याय दिलाना फिलहाल दूर की बात लगती है, लेकिन जागरूकता और सतर्कता से अन्य लोग ऐसे धोखेबाजों के चंगुल से बच सकते हैं। रीवा और जबलपुर के लोग अब केवल यही आशा कर सकते हैं कि प्रशासन जल्द कार्रवाई करे, इस कथित घोटालेबाज को कानून के दायरे में लाए, और क्षेत्र के रियल एस्टेट सेक्टर में भरोसा बहाल करे।

To everyone who is the toxic relative this year, I have a couple words to say: yes, everyone wants to hear that you got married to a serial check fraudster you met while stealing copper wire to throw in the local water supply. They're very proud that you knew it was true love after five hours. They think your cryptocurrency is hecking valid and WILL buy your NFT, but to seal the deal, make sure you insult their bodies and go on a few incoherent political rants, so they know you tell it how it is

-- Well-known in Mondstadt among the patrons of its bars, and probably has had a few run-ins with the Knights of Favonius because of how he doesn't pay his goddamn tabs or pay back money he's been lent. Still, he's not disliked, and in fact has quite the rapport with many of the people he has met!

-- Identity is influenced by the Shakespeare character Oberon and records of his myths brought over from a different world. How did they end up in Teyvat? Well, Alice brought them over, probably... Still, he's cursed, everything he says becomes a lie, and he yearns for the fictional Titania. Not too different from his canon here.

-- probably more I need to keep thinking and reading more genshin lore to figure out how I can fit him in

First thoughts for Genshin Obie:

-- King of Fairies from a small, secluded forest near the Mondstadt area. The fairies in question are extraordinarily weak ones and he's only a "king" because they decided to call him their king, and he too bills himself as someone without much fighting ability. Anemo Catalyst user, he fights using weapons made of dead insects. Vision is fake and he wears it for appearances. He's not an Allogene.

-- True identity is the Insect of the Abyss/Abyssal Worm, an entity who, if completely unleashed, can destroy Teyvat in a planetary and conceptual collapse. Not an understatement. Nobody knows this except Oberon, and his main goal is to unshackle it so that it can destroy everything.

No, actually, calling bullshit on anything a pathological liar & serial fraudster says doesn't make you worse than said lying fraudster. Some of you dumb cunts would fall for a carrot inside a box propped up with a stick

Matt Gaetz, Trump's former nominee for US Attorney General, is out of work. He resigned his House seat in the 118th Congress and won't take his seat in the 119th Congress.

So he needs some income to pay for typical expenses like food, housing, and hush money. For now, he's raising money by offering his services on Cameo.

The Florida Republican Matt Gaetz has made his first big move since withdrawing from consideration to be Donald Trump’s attorney general – by starting an account on Cameo, the website that lets ordinary people pay for video messages from celebrities, dubious or otherwise. The news website Semafor first reported the move on Friday. The revelation came a day after Gaetz withdrew from the confirmation process, under fire over a House ethics committee investigation of allegations of misconduct including allegedly paying an underage girl for sex – all of which Gaetz vehemently denies. “I served in Congress,” the page said, the past tense pointing to Gaetz’s resignation last week, pre-empting release of the ethics report, and announcement on Friday that he would not seek to return next year. “Trump nominated me to be US attorney general (that didn’t work out),” the page said. “Once I fired the House speaker.” [ ... ] Cameo offers users a chance to pay for messages to mark holidays, say happy birthday, send a pep talk, get advice, ask a question or, perhaps appealing to fans of Gaetz, to “roast someone” with pointed abuse. [ ... ] On Friday, Gaetz began by charging $250 a video but soon raised that price to $500. One social media user noted that Gaetz was thus charging “about the same rate as George Santos” – the serial fabulist, admitted fraudster and elected Republican who turned to Cameo amid the scandal that saw him expelled from Congress last year.

Making money by offering services online is not unusual. But in the case of Gaetz, OnlyFans seems like it would be a much better fit.

"The Hands of Orlac"

This photo from a expressionist movie directed by Robert Wiene, under the title "The Hands of Orlack". Is a 1924 Austrian silent movie, it's based on the book by Maurice Renard, under the title "Les Mains d'Orlac".

This is very good movie (like all those directed by Wiene), it have a frightening style and disturbing moments, that stimulate the imagination. For such an old film that is an expressionist horror it is really well done and thought out. The appearance of the characters and the disturbing thoughts and visions that Veidt sees in the film are brilliantly done and really allow you to get into the plot. the script is also well done, apart from the fact that it is based on a book, I really liked the plot of how Paul Orlac (Conrad Veidt) did not recognize his hands and how he reacted to the fact that he now has the hands of a fraudster and a thief. Of course, the actors also played very well: Conrad Veidt, Alexandra Sorina, Fritz Kortner, Carmen Cartellieri, Hans Homma and other.

I have no reservations about the film, it is brilliantly made, like many of Wiene's films. It is definitely worth your attention and watching, especially since it is another expressionist work of the 20s. I recommend watching it with attention and getting into the role of the titular Orlac.

Musk hired spies to surveil his critics and girlfriend.

Highlights:

"One of those critics is Vernon Unsworth, who sued Musk in 2018 for calling him a "pedo guy" on Twitter. A new Tortoise investigation reveals that the scale of surveillance used against Unsworth was greater than previously known: Musk used at least two sets of private investigators, both of which used deception to try to gather information."

"Musk deployed private investigators to follow a Tesla employee "24 hours a day". A former security operative at Tesla alleges the company also hacked into the employee's phone. Other whistleblowers also allege that they were followed."

"Unbeknownst to Unsworth, Musk's tam then paid about $50,000 to a private investigator called James Howard-Higgins to dig up dirt on Unsworth. Howard-Higgins promised that he would go through Unsworth's bins, pose as a charity worker to get information, and infiltrate his partner's Facebook page.

No due diligence. A Google search would have revealed that Howard-Higgins was a fraudster, jailed in 2016 for stealing from his own company. As the US trial, which Musk won by portraying his Twitter comments as a joke, his team portrayed Howard-Higgins as a one-off. In fact another investigation firm called Orion was also tasked with getting information on Unsworth. Emails show how Orion emailed one of Unsworth's friends, telling him, incorrectly, that they were "working on behalf of Vernon"."

"Musk allegedly placed his former partner Amber Heard under surveillance in Australia having become suspicious that she was cheating on him.

Around the same time a local newspaper received an anonymous tip that an Aussie Rules footballer was "spending many nights at Amber Heard's house" and "leaving early in the morning looking like the cat that swallowed the canary".

The paper traced the message to SpaceX, one of Musk's companies.

When one of its reporters spoke to Musk, he accepted that someone close to him had sent the tip but claimed it was done without his knowledge.

"My personal belief is that [Musk] definitely sent it," says the reporter, Sally Coates."

I've seen other outlets claim that Musk used infrared technology to spy on Heard's home and detect any movement inside, but can't confirm this from a source I consider credible.

Anyway, reminder that Muskrat is a serial domestic abuser and sexual predator as well as a fascist, that his supposed support for "free speech" (as always with the Right) just means "freedom for me to say whatever I want with no consequences, and no one else has freedom to disagree with or criticize me", and that how he conducts himself in his private life and in his businesses is mirrored in his goals for society as a whole.

Also, that this "genius" is so incompetent that he couldn't even use Google for two minutes before hiring a convicted con man.

(Addendum: I know a lot of people have accused Tortoise Media of being part of some grand Right-wing/transphobic conspiracy, but so far as I've found that's mostly desperate Neil Gaiman fans trying to make out that the accusations against him by multiple unconnected women, that he partly admitted to and others in the industry corroborated, are a vast Conservative conspiracy to frame him for being pro-trans. In other words- ridiculous and misogynist. Tortoise has some credibility issues of being fairly new, without much of an established track record and, like many major media outlets, having big business money behind it. But also, far Right psy-op outlets probably aren't inclined to write detailed exposes on Elon Musk and the Saudi Royals.)

Britain's Outlaws: Highwaymen, Pirates and Rogues

Episode 3: Rogues' Gallery

"BBC documentary series. In the final episode, Dr Sam Willis looks at urban crime, fraud and corruption in the 18th century, uncovering a fascinating rogues’ gallery of charmers, fraudsters and villains. Charmers like thief and serial escaper Jack Sheppard, so notorious that almost a quarter of a million people turned up to witness his hanging. Almost as controversial in her lifetime was Mary Toft, a fraudster who managed to convince no less than King George I and his surgeon that she had given birth to rabbits, making her, perhaps, the original 'con' artist."

Another ewanverse ask: mix up the ewanverse guys and drop them into one another’s stories. Who goes where and how well does it work out for them?

Secondly, because I think it would be fun. What’s the best au for each character? Which au would they thrive in most? Which one would they do the worst in?

I would drop Abraham into Osferth’s world. I think he’d do quite well as a blacksmith in the Saxon age. I think he’d be great in a post apocalyptic AU, as he has good practical skills for survival. Would do worst in a regency AU, because he’s ill mannered.

I’d place Aemond into Michael’s world. His love of academia and snobby attitude would mean he’d fit right in at Oxford. He’d suit a vampire AU, as he has the cunty vampire vibes. Would struggle in a sci fi setting because he’s never encountered any form of technology.

Billy Taylor I’d put into Billy Washington’s universe. I think he’d love video games and mucking around on the internet. He’d be best suited to a regency AU, as he’d make the perfect unlikely but absolutely adorable love interest. He’d struggle in a horror AU because he’s soft hearted.

Billy Washington I’d drop into Genyen’s world, because I think it would do his ego some good to bring that little fraudster to justice. He’d suit a serial killer AU best - he’s got those sad boy/falsely accused vibes. He’d do worst in a zombie/post apocalyptic AU. His survival skills are shit.

Ettore - would thrive when dropped into Aemond’s world. I can imagine him being a Ramsay Bolton type character. Would suit a horror/serial killer AU best. Would be horribly suited to anything that’s centred around romance.

Genyen - should be placed into Ettore’s world, as he’s a criminal. Would suit a sci fi AU, can imagine him being some sort of thief/pirate in out of space. Would not suit a medieval AU. He’d have his hands chopped off for thieving.

Michael - would fit in quite nicely in Aemond’s universe; can imagine him fitting right in in the Citadel, due to his intelligence. Best suited to a sci fi AU, due to his love of maths and physics. Would stick out like a sore thumb in any AU where there are mythological creatures - “tHeRe Is No ScIeNcE tO sUpPoRt ThIs!!”

Osferth - would fit in in either Tom or Billy T’s universe, as he’d make an honourable war hero. Best suited to a modern AU - imagine something similar to the priest’s storyline in Fleabag. Woof. Would suffer in a slasher/horror AU, as he’s too pure for all that.

Tom - would fit right in in Abraham’s world, he’d be well up for drinking, fighting and wielding an axe. Best suited to a horror/slasher AU - imagine him taking on the role of secret serial killer boyfriend - yes, please! Would not do well in a medieval AU, his attitude would get him into trouble, as he doesn’t respond well to authority.

Target headed your way. Keep an eye out.

The text the operative known as Tangerine sent not only his brother, but fellow partner in crime. He huffed out a despondent sigh after having noted the target on the tracker go wandering off into the zone that Lemon was watching, way out of his own reach.

This one was a good one, this job. Gang leader, serial fraudster, and a right fucking ladies man, so they say. Except every lady he shacked up with never seemed to shack the fuck back...

Tangerine had been looking forward to blowing the filthy bastard's brains out, although it now looked as if it'd be his twin who'd have the honours. Oh well. He'd still get paid at the end of the day, at least...

Guess now he had some time to kill.

"Slimy fuckin' git..." he murmured, as he recalled to mind the targets face. Suited, collar length hair, and a fellow Londoner. This hadn't been first time the twins had heard about this dirty bastard's bullshit. He felt quite honoured that they would be the ones to have dealt with him.

Amid his musings, Tangerine moved to light up a cigarette, only to hiss out a few more profanities upon realising the lighter was out of juice.

"Ohh, fuck about-!"

He faltered. There was a figure in the hallway. He was quick to turn on his calmer, more gentlemanly manner.

"Oh. Sorry, darlin'. Didn't see ya' there, luv. ...'Ey, don't suppose ya' got a light on ya', do ya'?"

It's everywhere. Boot up Netflix or scroll through the shows on your favorite podcast app and you'll quickly be inundated with lurid accounts of all manner of violent crimes, from serial killers to cult leaders and career fraudsters. But why? Why do millions of people listen to crime as a bedtime story? What is it about violent killers that captures our imagination so much? Who's listening, who's creating it, and, perhaps most importantly -- what does it say about us that we're so often enraptured by terrible events?

Before you write it off as a sure sign of our generation's moral bankruptcy, let's take a peek through history to discover the true roots of True Crime -- and why it's both older and more complicated than you might think.

weird that Paolo Macchiarini is talked about as a research fraudster when he is pretty clearly a serial killer.
