WARNING to all who might be taken by this con artist asking for 200k 300k
Before you even think about giving this guy a cent, you should look into this guys track record. Just ask around the raw food community, and ask some of the prominent individuals about this guy, you will get the raw truth so fast it will make your head spin. This guy is a dangereous sociopath so be warned. I have talked to several people who have had first hand experience with this fraud. He has bilked many people out of literally hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars. Ask him to give you references of people who have made money with him, or even invested in his scams, watch him squirm and change his tune quicker than you can blink.
Can you spot a con artist? if not, simply do your research, you will uncover the truth very quickly. Don't get taken, spread the warning. He is a danger to the raw lifestyle community.

This con artist also claims to have a cookbook that won first place in the US, this is NOT so, research will show differently, read the last post in his post entitled:
Amazing News: A Raw Organic Recipe book just WON THE #1 Best Vegetarian Cookbook in the USA Award!
Here is the truth about that claim:
Actually, your claim misreperesents the facts and the truth.
You book did NOT win first place in any catagory.
First place Vegetarian Cookbook went to Germany. You were actually Fourth place.
A clever play on symantics. But nevertheless a misrepresentation of the truth.
I have seen many books on raw food preparation. Yours just happens to be the most ridiculous. It's the worst I've ever seen. What an absolute joke.
How many entries were there, from the US (vegetarian cookbooks) for the Gourmand awards? Anyone want to take a guess? you probably were able to guess that one correctly.

Next time you should apply for the Pulitzer, there is no actual qualification for that, and you could possibly win that one and have done absolutely nothing at all.

....Sorry, looks like someone has beaten you to that one.
