Well, he wasn't scamming for rent $$...

I got some news today that our good friend, Keith, will be packing up shop and taking his little show on the road. For those of you who would like to pick up all the photo equipment that he sold to you and never got around to sending, you'll find his soon-to-be-former address below.

The following note was sent to me on this previous Friday night [the sender's info has been omitted per request]:

Hi Rebekah,
I heard from a reliable source in the SUFFOLK COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT that an Order Of Eviction and a monetary judgement has been issued against Keith Kiiroja a.k.a Keith Engstrom. Since this is his last known address, let everyone on the post know this will be taking place at 106 Prince Road in Rocky Point NY 11778 (west apt on 2nd floor). Thanks for keeping this post going, maybe it will prevent others from being conned by Keith . I only wish I had found it sooner.
xxxxxxx

This, of course, made my day.

For no reason at all other than to make you throw your hands up in disbelief and beg for someone to please tell you how such a useless excuse for a human being really exists, here is a sampling of the latest emails from Keith... please look closely at the dates of these emails. Talk about pathological lying!

Rebekah,

me at 631-849-2007, **name of someone Keith scammed on craigslist** has had this # all along and I am sure
others have as well. I am willing to talk to anyone who calls and I am not
avoiding anyone. I can not give out my new cell phone # as it is used for my
work. I can also be contacted via email keith@unkphoto.com

Well, I am paying back all the people who feel they were scammed by next Wednesday **[very clever wording, Keith]**. I have everything set in place. I will work things out with you once this is taken care of. I am sure once you see this is done you will finally believe something I say. I want to move ahead in my life for once and put all this behind me.

I will be resuming payments to you next Friday. I have to get caught up with my rent first with the help of a family member then from there I will have a clean slate with my personal finances. I need to keep the roof over Rhiannon’s head and myself out of jail. Anyway, I will be sending you the 400 as promised and I a going to try to make up for some lost time as well. I am also going to start sending payments to the rest of the cavalry. I think I have my list in check and all of their addresses. I will contact you next Friday once I have payment ready for you.
Sorry for the wait and continued inconvenience.
Keith

Keith's New Phone Number

631-512-6351
When you have a minute, give him a call and ask him where that deposit is :)

Update: Since my last post, I have been contacted by two new people who have found the blog. One questioned the legitimacy of what's written here, because *surprise, surprise* Keith has ripped him off, too!!

Here's his blog: Aaron Devon Hill: Blog

I also received a very interesting email from a "friend" of Keith's [I removed the name to respect her privacy]. Below you'll find two emails as well as my response just sent today:

From: xxxxxxx
Subject: Hello Rebekah - In regards to Keith Kiiroja
Date: July 10, 2009 2:10:50 PM EDT
To: rebekah@justinborucki.com

Hello Rebekah,

I came across your site when doing a Google search for Keith Kiiroja. I am a little disheartened by all this since he was a good friend of mine when we were just kids. I was looking for him as I am moving back to Long Island soon and was hoping to rekindle a friendship with him. He ended up being raised in a shit family and felt the brunt of many misfortunes. He was mentally and physically abused by his brother and lost his father when he was just a kid. When we were about 22, just before his daughter was born I helped him out a bit but never really cared about getting it back, till now. He borrowed about 300 bucks from me and I NEVER got it back. I helped him out as a friend but now I see what he does to those he calls friends. I am going to try to reach out to him as a friend and really find out what the hell is going on with him and his life. I will not mention that I know about the site at all and see where that gets me. I want to find out if he will be honest with an old friend who once helped him in a time of need. From what I can remember, I had given him this money when his Mom was going to remarry and he was kicked out of the house by the abusive asshole who was going to be marrying his Mom. He used the money to stay in a local motel or something. I really can't recall all the things that were done more than 10 years ago. I would however like to help in anyway to get Keith back on track. I do not think he is a bad person at heart, he may just need some guidance and if I can be the one to do it that would be great. Let us first see if he opens up about what is REALLY going on and mentions Justin and the site at all. If it does not come up at all and he lies about his life being great or whatever, I will cooperate with you however I can to help him get things squared away with you. I will mention the site after a week or say and say you will not believe what I came across do you want to talk to me about this? You see the good thing about all this is, I ended up becoming a social worker for troubled teens and feel that I may really be able to tackle any of the issues Keith is having. But that is only if he is willing to admit them. I have not spoken to him in a while but I have his email and I think I now have a phone # to reach out to him. Please keep me in the loop and keep me updated to any new occurrences at all. I would like to be in this support group both for your side and also to get some understanding as to how I may be able to help Keith getting this all wiped away. I hope it is possible. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Consider me your true mediator.

Thank you for your time.

Rebekah,

I finally got a hold of Keith this morning and he already knew that what my intentions were. Someone named xxxx apparently shared my email with him. Did you share it with the rest of the group? I can talk to Keith, and when I do I will get back to you. I do not mind but I could have seen this all back firing on me. I told him I am a friend and I am not out to hurt him. I hope all goes well. I am meeting with him for dinner on Tuesday night.

Have a great weekend.
xxxxxxx

P.S. please leave our emails confidential 100%, just between you and I.

I did share your email with xxxx. Keith is a lying, manipulative, and cowardly criminal, and any correspondence from someone who claims to be his "friend" strikes me as suspicious. Keith has posed as other people before to throw us off his trail, so I usually don't answer those emails or share them with the group... which I also haven't in this case. xxxx also questioned the validity of the email and I imagine that's what prompted him to go to Keith.

Your friend is in a LOT of trouble. If there's any message that I would like relayed to him, it would be that I haven't forgotten him and I'm working hard to make sure he is punished severely for what he's done to people. Because you're friendly with this "person", I can't share any information about the group or what we're working on to make sure he's prosecuted. And if the confidentially of these emails are important to you, I would suggest you don't reach out to me or anyone else he's stolen from. Good luck with Keith.

You can also tell him that I have all his new information and will be passing it on through the website.

I just can't believe that there are still people in this world who have compassion for this "person". And FYI, I haven't heard a word from Keith since his last email promising payment on June 16.
