    A German court found him guilty of improper business practices: When one of his companies went belly up, he sold its inventory for no money to another company he controls to save the goods and screw his creditors. Now he has to pay roughly $ 800k and has one year of probation.
    However that's not the end of it, there is another case pending with 9 counts of similar accusations.

    Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. :)

    He reminds me of the trickster Puck.

    What's that I hear?

    Is that the sound of Ron crying in the corner? ;)


    Ron, IIRC you said you or someone you know did biz with Willy Weber. Hopefully the sheyster didn't shaft you... apparently it's a trend with this guy.

    If that's true, then that's funny, because that means Ron associates with two shiesty businessmen, Webber and Teddy bear. LOL!

    What's so funny/ironic/bizarre about Weber is the fact, that he risked going to jail for the value of less than 2 million US. When the guy as Mr. 20% is worth probably around 60 million US.
