Chris Schafer and QPlus Stole Over $25,000 From Our Company. He And His Girlfriend Are Crooks Running A Major Con Game!

AKA - Chris and Yolanda Schafer (or Scahffer) Hipnostic and Colton Piano Heir (or owner)

My company was charged over $25,000 for IT work we never received.

In a detailed invoice, we were promised and paid for 6 Dell Poweredge servers and come to find out we only had 1 server that was a Compaq and it was SHARED!!!

99% of what was listed in the invoice that we paid for was an outright lie. We never received any of it. Even the co-location we were paying $1,500 a month for was a scam. After the first 2-3 months, once we began getting some serious business to our websites (our advertising was kicking in) we began having nothing but problems. The 24/7 tech support ended up being Chris Schafer and he'd usually either not get back until the next day, or one time, the next week or he'd call drunk.

We had spent over $100,000 on print and TV ads and our site was down!!!

After over hearing a group of business owners complaining about their experience with Chris Schafer and QPlus, we talked to them and a number of others they referred us to. It was unbelieveable the number of small businesses, even churches he was ripping off. Charging for equipment and services that were not even his to sell and then charging hundreds or thousands a month for a $20 per month hosting account.

We finally had to bring in another company and to our horror, we found out that Chris Schafer and QPlus were in fact using a $20 per month, yes that was not a misprint, a $20 per month shared hosting account that they outsourced to a very unreliable hosting company. Our domains and our business, our $100,000 advertising investment, were hosted on a server with over 3,000 other domains, including a porno site that was the cause of our websites crashing 20 times each day.

And Chris Schafer and QPlus told us to sue them, as they have no assets. He rents and works out of an apartment and has now hired his girlfriend/wife Yolanda to scam his clients selling Internet marketing cons. He charged one of my employees $5,000 to manage a Google advertising account. That was 2 months ago and still no traffic. We then found out that anyone can go directly to Google at Google AdWords and do it on their own.

Chris Schafer also runs a band named Hipnostic hipnostic.com and I'd beware of that too. He is very good at getting people to part with money and on at least one occassion he tried to get us, in the beginning to invest in a music video. He said he had a guaranteed deal with VH1 and MTV but no one knew who Chris Schafer or Hipnostic was. He also states he owns Colton Piano company coltonpiano.com and that he is worth millions.

Chris Schafer also borrowed money over the 3 or so months he worked with my company. Anywhere from $20 to $500 from myself, two of my partners and even our employees. Usually saying he needed to buy a piece of hardware or software for our project and he forgot his wallet or credit card.

On one occassion, while we were throwing our launch party (we had spent the $100,000 on advertising) Chris Schafer showed up, knowing full well what he had done to us and that our websites would not be able to handle the volume of visitors because he did not deliver the 6 Dell servers, the backups, the redundantcy promised in writing, giving us a $20 shared hosting account so he could pocket $25,000 and then to make matters worse, our bartender for the evening caught him stealing 4 bottles of top-shelf vodka.

Can you believe this guy?

Stay away from Chris Schafer, QPlus, Hipnostic, Colton Piano, et all!
