I know this guy from IRC from about several years ago. This whole story has actually happened twice now believe it or not. I was a programmer who had also been requested to do work for Jason (called StormFury on EFnet). He got a good bit of people worked up over this Phoenix-Corp crap about satellite Internet, TV, and cellphone bundled like service thingy. It was a huge scam that blew up in his face and he moved on. My friend and I are the ones that hosted his phoenix corp page for some time on an EV1 server where he never payed us. That's how he found out about EV1 and I swear if it wasn't a year or so when I first heard the OSIHosting thing. I felt pretty bad about who he was going to scam next but when I saw this article my eyes about popped out of their sockets. This story describes Jason Macer EXACTLY! And I agree that the use of Linux and other buzz words are luring too many people into junk like this.
What a coincidence
