QUESTION: Is it true that Street UnderGrounD put a stop to a fraudulent organization and their money making fundraising scam ?

 

ANSWER: Yes we did. It was a little biker lady and another woman (a DJ that played in bars local to the Pittsburgh and New Kensington areas and at other events around the area). Both women are from New Kensington, PA and were calling themselves The Riders For Danna organization, a fake group with an unregistered name used to hold fundraisers to scam individuals into donating money that they were pocketing in 2005 and not giving it to the person it was meant for. They did this by finding a local family who had a child with health problems to use as victims for their fundraising scam, but the family didnt know the scammers were pocketting most of the money. It turned out these two women were going round getting money off of people, holding events, and other illegal fundraisers that the family in need knew nothing about.

 

It turns out the one scammer, the one that is the D.J. in and around New Kensington was reported to have been caught scamming welfare as well, for not reporting her income from her work as a D.J. for which she was caught by the system and didnt get away with it.

 

It turns out that these 2 women tried to scam our club, Street Underground which turned out to be their biggest mistake and downfall as we put an end to their fraudulent activity. We also helped the the family they were scamming along with others and some other organizations that we got word to to help out.

 

Does a person by the name of Mr. C run the club ?

 

The answer is no. This person is a member that once joined the club and was later expelled from the club for for mischief in the club that the club does not tolerate.  This person also known as Cecil E. (last name not given to protect the individual) a.k.a. Mr. C. , is not part of our club and does not own nor run the club in any way. The club's original creator and owner is Ed.

 

After this person did try to start his own car club by illegally using our name until stopped, which caused some confusion.

 

Why were there two Vandergrift chapters at the same time there were two Penn Hills chapters in 2004 and 2005 ?

 

There was only one chapter of each at that time. The original Vandergrift and Penn Hills chapters were formed when the club was first created. The second vandergrift and Penn Hills chapters started in winter of 2004/2005 were  brought to us by the earlier mentioned Mr. C. and people he knew wanting to form chapters for Street Underground in those areas, or so he claimed, but they had already asuumed our name without permission of the club. They were given a chance to join our club.

 

Is it true the Vandergrift and Penn Hills chapters never fully became club chapters because they were a part of someones plan to steal the club or club's name ?

 

Cecil, a.k.a. Mr. C. ( the one expellled from the club) did tell people he owned and started the club, thus trying to steal the name, therefore the club as well for unknown reasons. he did this by causing confusion and lying to new members that we granted him permission to bring into the club. His membership in the National Division position was revoked for doing so. He was with us less than one season out of the 2 decades the club existed. He did make the current Vandergrift & Penn Hills chapters unknowing accomplices because of his lies to them to make them think they were forming a new and current club under him rather than under the High Council of our club, the real Street Underground in the winter of 2004/2005 until the High Council investigated and these chapters were shut down due to this matter.

 

This is the first and only time we have had a problem within the club with anyone in two decades.
