THINKING OF EMPLOYING MICHAEL EDELSTEIN?

Michael Edelstein has been released from his latest stretch in prison - have a good look at this photo (he usually is a good 30-40 pounds heavier, it looks like prison food didn't appeal to him). Michael Edelstein served time for lewd conduct, transmitting harmful materials to a minor and attempted sexual battery. He is now looking for work, claiming to be an actor. If you have encountered this individual, let us know and we will post your story here.

We have had overwhelming response to our warnings about employing mentally unstable Michael Edelstein. It turns out that when he applies for work (remember that he does so only to later either extort money from his employers or to steal from them (or both), he claims to speak three languages fluently: German, Polish, and Hungarian. He doesn’t include English, possibly because his grammar and spelling are at an elementary school level. People that have known him in Poland and in Hungary are adamant that he barely speaks a few words of either language, and one German speaking former employer stated that “Edelstein didn’t even know what the word ‘Gesundheit’ meant.”

Edelstein also claims to have attended “Graduate School of Radiologic Technology,” but the closest thing he came to that was working as a janitor at an LA hospital. It was at this children’s hospital where he was fired for “inappropriate touching” of an underage child. This compulsive liar also often claims that he has an “Associate Arts Degree, Theater Arts” and a “Bachelor of Arts Degree, Communications” – both of which are entirely untrue.

Edelstein also claims to have his own 30 minute classic rock radio show on KCLAFM.com and that he co-hosts a one hour talk radio show on KLAS FM. Contact either one of these stations, and you will be told that neither of them have ever heard of Michael Edelstein!

His resume also includes “working as an on-site courier for Warner Brothers” – he briefly worked as a summer part-time tour guide and was fired for stealing and inappropriate behaviour. He then set out to defame Warner Brothers by flooding the internet with slander – just Google “Wiener Brothers” and you will find countless pages of defamatory material that he has posted. He often uploads posts on YouTube as well, claiming that he is the famous author Steven King, and slanders Warner Brothers and many other companies and individuals.

Edelstein will tell you that he “Owned several on-line businesses to buy and sell vintage military documents, uniforms, badges and photographs from the period of 1900 to 1945 from Budapest , Hungary.” Numerous people and law enforcement agencies are currently after Edelstein, as he would offer items for sale, collect people’s money, and then never deliver. Every so often he would close one online store, only to open another under an assumed name, and repeat the process.

We contacted the Budapest Sun, where he claims to have worked for one year. A representative from that paper told us that he had pestered them for work for several months, and then threatened them that he would publicly declare that they wouldn’t hire him because he was Jewish. He told them that he would not do so if they paid him 10,000 Euros.

Michael Edelstein also claims to be a published author, and that he wrote a book called “Wings of Grace and Valor” on the Austro-Hungarian aviation service and their insignia. After some research we found out that this tome was really a 12 page photocopied booklet plagiarized from a pamphlet from a European war museum, which he used to sell to people for $45.00.

Beware of this individual! His MO is that he applies for work and then attempts to extort the employer for any number of reasons.

MICHAEL EDELSTEIN’S LATEST DISGUISE

Professional internet slanderer Michael M. Edelstein is now using dear.special735@gmail.com for his Google Groups slandering

YOU MIGHT BE THE NEXT VICTIM

The Article that you are about to read about Michael Edelstein is an article about a desperate and mentally disturbed man who was disowned by his family and friends and has gone underground to pursue his crimes over the Internet. This Article was put together by individuals who were slandered, robbed, and defamed by Michael Edelstein.

WARNING: AN INTERNET FRAUDSTER AND VICIOUS LUNATIC

This warning is particularly important for the collectors of German, Austro-Hungarian, Hungarian and Polish militaria. The person in question calls himself Michael M. van Lauesen, Michael parks Edelstein, Michael Mark Edelstein but his real name is just Michael Edelstein. A US citizen by birth (he used to reside in California where he worked as a med tech), he lives at present in Budapest, Hungary. He runs an Internet business site at Bizland.com under the name of Central European Military Antiques (CEMA for short). We have reasons to believe that he is now in the process of moving his business to iPowerweb.com.
Over the last few years Michael van Lauesen has been banned from Manion's International, eBay (twice), ePier, all major militaria shows in Hungary, as well as from several Internet discussion groups for uttering bomb threats, auction interference, shilling, mail fraud, common theft, impersonation and malicious slander. He suffers from acute delusional paranoia which makes him accuse various militaria collectors and dealers of belonging to an "Internet mafia" which supposedly sells fake badges, etc. He is also a compulsive liar and thief.

Still more information can be found by running a Google search under "Michael van Lauesen"
Van Lauesen/Edelstein's growing notoriety may eventually force him to go underground, or assume a different pseudonym. In this case, watch out for the following telltale signs:
- a general delivery/poste restante address in Budapest or generally in Hungary; - personal email address ending in "datanet.hu"; - seller mostly offers German, Hungarian, Austrian and Polish militaria; - seller offers a vanity press publication about the Austro-Hungarian military aviation badges; - his writing style is full of cheap claque; quite often his spelling is very poor and his sentence structure faulty to the point of gibberish; - his website may contain a number of rambling and progressively more and more incoherent rants about "eScam" (meaning eBay), "Internet mafia", "Hungarian mafia", "vanity page", "totally fleeced", etc.; - he may also post some of his more "normal" texts on the Hungarian 1921 pilot's badge, Austria's highest honor (the Order of Maria Theresa), Austro-Hungarian Naval Air Service 1910-1918, the death's heads (on the Hungarian para badges), etc.
Remember: if you don't want to lose your money and get publicly slandered as well, keep away from this individual! Michael M. van Lauesen is one of the worst creeps on the Net. Please feel free to copy and post this warning wherever you think necessary.

In this blog Mr. Edelstein slandered Peter Czink The head of the Hungarian Veterans Society in Vancouver and Bill Combs the President of the OVMS (ohio valley military society) Michael M. Edelstein left Hungary because he was caught by legitimate vendors and people looking to buy authentic Austro-Hungarian Military Memorabilia. He is also wanted by Interpol in Germany. For these reasons he went back to California and applied for a job and was hired by Warner Brothers. After things did not go his way he was fired. He then went on a campaign to defame one of the world’s largest and well known film studios. He blames Warner Brothers see (http://theweinerbrothersvptour.blogspot.com/).
As you will see for yourself how deep Michael Edelstein’s Psychological problems are. On his Weiner Brother blogs you will hear him call himself Steven King, this is not only a sign of mental illness but a way to defame and impersonate a very famous novelist. You will also see that he has made a blog called http://savingmike.com/ where he is begging for Money.

http://savingmike.com/ (scroll down because he has removed the pictures only the text is left.)

In 2006 after saving up enough money to come back to Hungary to try to scam some more people out of their hard earned money with his phony military Memorabilia, it was unsuccessful. After a year of trying to scam people unsuccessfully he became desperate and in more debt. Having a so called friend that worked for WBFI, and getting as much inside information out of that person. He applied for a job with WBFI (Wealth Builder Financial International) with the intent to extort the owner knowing that Ms. Judy Jackson worked with a very large amount of Investors. Judy Jackson the owner of WBFI invited Michael Edelstein for Easter Dinner with the rest of the WBFI employees to see what kind of personality Michael had. During Easter dinner Michael disappeared. One of the employees with WBFI found him upstairs in Ms. Jackson’s bedroom trying to hack into her computer he was caught red handed. He was then escorted from the premises and was screaming franticly like a lunatic “I am going to put your company out of business if you don’t pay me” he then left. The following week Michael Edelstein was waiting outside WBFI headquarters for Ms. Jackson. He approached Ms. Jackson with verbal threats and demands. Ms. Jackson told him that she had already gone to the authorities then Michael fled the scene. According to the police he had left the country the next day. The following week he had started his campaign to try to put WBFI out of business by slandering, libel and defamation of character via posting and blogging all over the internet. If you have gone to his websites about WBFI you will notice that they are all blogged and posted by the same person. He goes under the name fjohnso...@yahoo.co.uk,(wbfi) mrmajestic66yahoo.com (mrmajestic66)and his next posting might be under the alias dockers442...@yahoo.com (mrmajestic). WBFI has been pursuing legal action against Michael Edelstein for his crimes, and he is now running from the law. However, it is small comfort to know that Michael Edelstein cannot function as a normal man, but must live in a foggy fantasy surrounded by crime and intrigue. If you would like to see what this lunatic has written about WBFI please use caution I have noticed several viruses on his postings about WBFI. For any Employer or individual in contact with Michael Edelstein should use a great deal of caution.

Introduction to the online slander tactics of Michael Edelstein


This blog has been created to warn potential victims of notorious internet slanderer Michael Edelstein. Michael Edelstein, aka Michael M. van Lauesen, is currently posing as author Steven King in his latest series of YouTube clips that he posts under the user name mrmajestic66. These video rants are primarily against his latest victims Warner Brothers and WBFI Investments.

Edelstein regularly victimises people and businesses if they displease him in any way – usually when his practice of extortion doesn’t work. In the case of Warner Brothers, they fired him from his job as a tour guide for petty theft. WBFI is a company based in Hungary which fired him only days after he was hired as a gopher because he had given them false documents and work records. He demanded $10,000 from the owner of the company or he would “ruin them via the internet with [his] blog.” She declined to comply, and his rant campaign is the result.

Edelstein has an extensive criminal record. He was born in California, and after high school his parents (who are medical professionals) got him a job at a local hospital as an orderly. After working there for less than a year, he was fired for stealing cash and other valuables from elderly patients. He has had similar brushes with the law, and has served time in jail for acts of violence, extortion and lewd behaviour with a minor. He later moved to Poland where his parents owned property, and it wasn’t long before Polish authorities were after him for uttering bomb threats. He fled Poland, where there are still warrants out for his arrest, to Hungary where he continued his criminal activity. The police there questioned him about his involvement with internet fraud schemes, and soon after the incident with WBFI, he left Hungary and returned to the USA.

If you feel you may be the victim of internet fraud or slander, and Michael Edelstein is behind it, contact us. He may try to apply for work at your business (only to extort you later), so have a good look at his YouTube videos so you can recognise his simian features. We will be publishing an extensive list of anyone who has suffered from his slander, and we would be glad to include your name or the name of your business in our blog.
