ASA Jake steps down
The recent chain of events have left Autosurf Dummy breathless...
It all started when Terry Kurtis, owner of PTSPayPro requested for a withdrawal of $69500 from TSMC. Bob was reluctant to make the payment but what was baffling was how ASA Jake took up the issue with Terry. Here is a skype conversation between them.
For close to eight hours, we see the drama unfold before us. Juicy details were thrashed out like how Jake was a partner of Tri Star and Will, the admin of 24dp was also involved in the fracas. It was also a huge surprise to see the choice words and threats from Jake which were unbecoming of the moderate image the members have come to know of him.
Then a few hours after the skype transcript came out, Bob Krimm also got into the act by throwing a spanner into the works. He announced that he will have nothing more to do with ASA as Jake's announcement of being part owner of Tri Star was absolutely untrue and has hurt his business. He ordered his moderators and supporters to stop posting in ASA's forum with immediate effect.
No, unfortunately, the story doesn't end here. ASA forum was down for a few hours (for a while, Autosurf Dummy thought it was closed after this scandal). This adds to the confusion as many people were hoping to seek more information from the forum and hearing Jake's side of the story. There was some speculation that Wil might have hacked the forum but there was no verifiable evidence.
Anyway, the dust settled and the forum came back up but the bombshell was delivered when Jake made the grand announcement of his withdrawal from ASA. Below is the email.
With this massive reshuffle at ASA, the story has drawn to a close and there is only one winner, Bob Krimm who played his cards well. Jake lost badly and suffered considerable damage to his image while Terry is now more or less confirmed as a scammer whose intention of withdrawing the money is apparent.

To All the ASA Members,
It is with a heavy heart that I write this final mass email. I want to do what I feel is in the best interest for all of the members at ASA. With that in mind I have decided to take a rest from this industry for a while. I have decided to pass the ASA Torch onto Butch.
He will now be the administrator and operator of ASA. Please show your support for Butch and help him keep ASA as the Number One monitoring site.
I also want to express that my actions were solely in the interests of the members of ASA who were investing their money into PTS Pay Pro. After the failings of 12 X 12 and the dismal deception of the admins from 13 Daily Pro, I felt it was necessary to take action and try to protect the funds of the members of ASA.
Please understand that I only wanted to protect each an every member. I really care for all of you very much. Butch has set up a new toll free support line for ASA members 1-866-479-6765
Sincerely,
Jake
ASA
