If your like me, my experience, or the People I have spoken with when it comes to Bills the biggest bitch of the bunch is the Electric Bill. Its no exception here in the Southern Country.
Well there is one chief difference, The Area in which I reside is at the Heart of one of the Longest on Going, BUT SOME HOW LEGAL Scams by the Conmen at POS&MF Electric.
Now if you haven’t noticed I have a sick fascination (bordering on Obsession ) with Scams. I love picking them apart revealing how utterly fucking idiotic they actually are, and then talking shit about the Stupid Scam Artists. I believe I posted a previous Post pertaining to Scams that explains what I’m talking about further so back to the story.
It all started many, many motherfucking moons ago in 2003 when POS&MF announced they were going to build the greatest Electric Plant the World has ever fucking witnessed.
It was billed to the TiTs I tell you. It was going to take 900-1000 archers of land just to built the Behemoth. It was going to provide THOUSANDS of Jobs for a Economically Depressed Area which had the Locals psyched as hell.
The New Plant was going to have the NEWEST Technology available. Thus providing the Highest quality service available to their beloved customers.
It would be run by the most intelligent and qualified experts money could buy. Their genius alone would fuel the endless success that the New Humungous Plant POS&MF proclaimed.
And the best part of POS&MF’s new Mega Plant announcement was that it would end up reducing Customer’s bills as the New Plant would be much more efficient than their current cluster of sub stations.
Now Here’s The Scam:
Now to raise the excessive amount of capital needed not to mention the Bill Gate’s sized Bankroll needed to Build the New Plant POS&MF had formulated a gloriously simple scam.
POS&MF informed their Customers that to raise the funds needed for the New Plant they would be adding a NEW ADDITIONAL CHARGE TO THEIR CUSTOMER’S BILL. The reason for the SHARP (and excessive) increase would go directly for building the New Super Plant that would enrich Customer’s lives and improve quality of life for all according to POS&MF’s endless line of Propaganda and Self Serving Announcements.
Over the next 10 years POS&MF while continuing to collect more money to build the aforementioned Super Station every month from their Customer’s managed to blow $9 BILLION FUCKING DOLLARS. Yes thats a 9 with a BILLION behind it. POS&MF blew a $9 Billion Budget. Who the hell can fuck up to the tune of $9 BILLION??!!! How does one fuck up to the tune of $9 BILLION, I mean thats a rather fantastical fuck up.
HERES WHERE IT GETS REALLY ABSURDLY INSANE…
After 6 years or so POS&MF had epically failed attempting to build its New Electric Plant was now facing being stuck with $9 BILLION tab.
So POS&MF informed their Customer’s that the New Plant Project was officially being cancelled.
Now first off Customer’s WOULDN’T BE REIMBURSED A SINGLE GODDAMN DIME of the Extra Fee they were billed for every month for the last 6 years.
AND HERE WHERE IT GETS REALLY ABSURD AND UTTERLY INSANE…
The Story is still Continuing to This Day.
You see Customer’s are STILL BEING CHARGED MONTHLY UNDER THE GUEISS THAT ITS FOR A/THE NEW PLANT THAT WILL NEVER ACTUALLY BE BUILT.
Somehow POS&MF managed to collect $9 BILLION in additional Fees over 6 years from its Customers and blow it out their collective ass. Then after announcing the Cancellation of the New Plant Project has managed to (under some mysterious pretense) CONTINUE to Bill Their Customer’s the Additional Service Fees for another 4 years for THE FAILED PLANT.
What that means is after a decade POS&MF failed to build a New Plant as they promised, Cost Customer’s an additional total of $9 BILLION over 6 years, Cancelled the Project, and are now continuing to charge the Extra Service Fees to reimburse themselves for the 9 BILLION DOLLARS THEY SQUANDERED.
If that isn’t one of the all time Shittiest and ingenious Scams I don’t know what the fuck is.
