Safe & Sound...

Before I begin, I would like to state that I am NOT Rebekah, but just another someone who's life was directly effected by the actions and decisions of one Keith Kiiroja/Engstrom/Kevin and now BLUHM (this is another alias, so beware). I had let Keith borrow lenses under my name from my job. Accepting all risk, I did this, and in turn, I waited over 2 (TWO) MONTHS for him to return them. These were the excuses (but not all of them: for a list of excuses email me and i will send you the spread sheet) for why he was unable to return my/works gear:

These started around one month after he first borrowed them.....

- MY MOTHER IS DEAD! (Roughly about Oct 26th or end of October sometime)
- I am the executor to the WILL and i need to get it signed over
- I am at the Lawyers in Manhattan (Nov 11th 8:43p m)
- I am in PA with my family to ask my Uncle to take care of the WILL (Nov 12th 3:28pm)
- I am still in PA due to this shit weather (Nov 13th 6:34pm)
- I have to drive a trailer back to NY with all my moms stuff (Nov 14th 6:30pm)
- I am driving back from Columbus, OH to Pittsburg, PA (Nov 19th 9:34pm)
- I had electrical troubles with the trailer by Landcaster, PA (Nov 23rd 10:59pm)
- I am at work (Nov 24th 2:30pm)

and he continued to work "3" jobs until I lost contact with him on Dec 8th, on which date I was supposed to meet him at a diner in Amityville (but you guessed it! He never showed). And it was after this date that he turned his "cell" phone off and left me with no other contact number.


Long story short, if i had not found this blog (with much help from my boyfriend) and Rebekah, I would not have the extremely great news that my gear WAS returned back to me today, Wed, December 16th, 2009 @ 1:45pm (2 months and a week) and with the correct serial numbers and in total working order.

This is far from over though. Although I was GIVEN MY BELONGING BACK (that's my legal disclaimer for this blog post), it is no longer about that. This blog is a public service to the surrounding tri-state area and beyond. I tell my story and list his lies so you know what to look for and are able to read more clearly through this bullshit. He is not going to stop taking advantage of people and there kindness. He lays the pity and sympathy stories so thick you cant smell his shit, but you can now. If you have any information to lead to a possible arrest and conviction of this con-artist please contact LiSkaEmo@gmail.com or Rebekah.

And a special note to Keith.....

Besides for LYING ABOUT YOUR OWN MOTHER DYING, all the bad things that happen to you in this life, are happening to you for a reason. It is because you yourself are a bad bad bad person, and you should sacrifice yourself to the authorities, just like the samurai of Japan, who when disgraced there family, the plunged the knife in to their own gut and twisted.....This may be the only chance to save your soul. Failure to do so will result in a life full of hardships and despair. But I'm sure everyone is hopping for the latter.....

CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!!!

If nothing else, this blog acts as a public service.

Today, our favorite chubby scam artist came out of his hole and did something right! Well, I don't believe he did the "right" thing; he did what would keep him temporarily out of trouble with the police.

He returned the lenses! Ashley is safe in her job, and all is well... with her. Now where's the rest of our equipment/money/stuff, Keith?

Funny side note: When she told her boss the story, in fear that she may lose her job, he actually knew EXACTLY who Keith was. You see, according to him, Keith had tried to scam equipment off of him on a previous date for his "daughter's charity". Wonders never cease.

Become a Fan!

Seriously?

How is he a professional photographer if he doesn't even have a camera [remember, he claimed to not have a camera and to have given up photography all-together]... I mean, he's sold all the ones he's stolen.

*UPDATE:  IT LOOKS LIKE KEITH REMOVED THE LINK... BOO!*

Never Happened: Disappearing Comments

I still haven't given you all the details of Keith's latest scam, but it involves stolen camera equipment [October 2009] and Keith's never-ending lies and promises to return it.

Since I posted the blog alerting all of you about his newest victim, a flurry of emails [and phone calls] from Keith have been received by his victim and me.

As I'm writing this, we have just passed 1:00pm EST.

Please view the following image of comments that Keith left on my blog and then erased later [he does this often]:


Also, two of the emails I've received since yesterday:

Please pay close attention to the words Keith uses in his written correspondence. Keith is a thief and a liar. His mom is dead, he has cancer, his car broke down, his daughter is in the hospital... I could go on forever. He stole from people by scamming them with lies. He did it on Craigslist, on XBOX communities, by showing up at a person's job and begging for money under false pretenses, by "borrowing" camera equipment and disappearing with it. Don't believe the hype. He belongs in prison.

Alias: No, Not Like Jennifer Garner

In my life, I've had a couple different names... Rebekah Peterson, Rebekah Platt, Rebekah Borucki. These name changes have all been legal and occurred when I got married/divorced.

Our friend, Keith, has also gone by a few names... Keith Kiiroja, Keith Engstrom, Keith Bluhm. Because I'm almost positive that he hasn't been married, I would guess that he's used different names to escape being found out as the true scammer he is.

Keith Kiiroja
Keith Engstrom

and
Keith Bluhm

are all the same guy! Don't trust him. Avoid him. And if you see him with camera equipment, please ask him to return it all to its rightful owners.

UPDATE: new victim!

I received an email yesterday from another NEW victim of Keith Kiiroja. It seems he has stolen camera equipment [under his alias] as little as two months ago. There will be MUCH more info to follow... I've extended an invitation for the victim to guest blog, and I will be posting new emails from Keith in the coming days.

It truly never ends.

Happy Holidays, D-Bags (Keith) and non D-Bags alike!

In the spirit of the Thanksgiving/December holidays, I've delcared a (very) temporary ceasefire on the hatemongering campaign against the assholery of Keith Kiiroja. With that in mind, I'd like to extend the following warm wishes for the upcoming holidays:

Of course to the lovely Rebekah Borucki and her family, Happy Holidays.

To those of you who AREN'T stealing money/possessions from good, honest people:

Hope you had a happy Thanksgiving and have a Happy Chrismahanukwanzakah!

To those readers who are, in fact, lying, thieving, deceitful scumbags. Happy holidays! We hope your completely stress free holiday (mostly due to the fact that you're spending other people's hard earned money) is enjoyable as well. Hope you can finally find a way to sleep at night. And look at yourself in the mirror.

Enjoy, folks!
