This is quite a site Sir/Madam. Certainly not very flattering to me. You paint a very distorted picture of me on this page. I have engaged in certainly some risky entrepreneurial activities but have been ripped off myself by both individuals and companies. I am sorry that I have not been at the forum lately. I get tired of holding everyone's hand while they blame me for all of their problems. Yes I take responsibility for a great amount of the troubles but we are all held accountable for our own actions. I did some dumb things. While testing the waters many months ago I used my middle name (Benjamin). Guess how much I received in investments? $0! I guess I feared my friends and family who have nothing to do with any of this to suffer. Was I wrong? More recently I went to a venture capital site to see if I could get any responses. No responses other than spam. I gave a rather inflated number (as did you on this site) to try to generate a response. God forbid I try to fix the broken hearts of everyone involved. I have lived in poverty for a very very long time now. I am not nor have I ever lived off of anyone's money.
When things were going well I was 28 years old an offered an opportunity. I really expected things to go better than they have lately. Do you really want to blame all of your troubles on a stranger across the country? I didn't force you or anyone else to do anything. You made a high risk investment and it has not gone well. Does this website help rectify that? Why not kick your dog or beat your wife like real men do when life doesn't go their way?
Sincerely
Hugh Benjamin DeNeal
Accepting people's money as investment (in two separate stages) without making any returns, and then claiming no personal gain whatsoever on your part from the entire scheme while providing no accountability - well - if it sounds like a duck...
Hugh:
You ripped off the wrong people. Rest assured the proper authorities have been notified.
Just like Johnny Cash you will be doing a concert at Folsom Prison. But in your case it will be every day for 7-10 years. No parole for a Federal offense. Want to know how serious the Government considers Internet fraud? Do a yahoo search.
OK, let's cut the cheap talk. Has anyone reported Hugh to a Federal agency? NO BS, give us the details. The way I see it there must be some serious tax evasion issues here. Did he declare all income? I bet not. Unless we really report him we are just full of hot air and Hugh knows it. He figures he can out wait and out wit us. If no one has done anything let me know, I am more than willing to get IRS involved for a potential reward.
Unless Hugh can provide us with the information we have been requesting I see no other choice.
Hugh was sentenced to 34 months in federal prison and ordered to pay back restitution in the amount of $601,246.62 on September 14, 2009, by the Honorable Judge Patrick Murphy.
I do have to wonder though, if it wasn't Hugh taking those peoples money it would have just been the next guy. No, that does not make what he did right, but some people are idiots, he just happen to find several of them. You can't blame Hugh for the fact that YOU threw YOUR money away!

Hugh was found GUILTY.
Sorry my friend, I understand you're a friend / Fan of his.. but he also blatantly ripped people off.
Lied , deceived and manipulated.
Uninsured companies still receiving investments and business while failing is nothing new. No entrepreneur knows when to quit. When I've lost money to a person or investment opportunity, that has no guarantee/insurance, and the company/person is bankrupt and has no record of spending money, only a record of using funds to repay investors, and when sensitives who have already had a return are playing the squeaky wheel, I say tough. Man up and try and sue Wells Fargo for dips in your IRA. You are lost on the concept and just want vengeance. A poor businessman that never made any money for himself, now has to pay back some deserving and some undeserving risk-takers. An awful businessman, that put some folks through college, paid off some peoples houses, facilitated a man to have experimental spinal surgery; but all you hear is that some folks bet the farm, literally. It's awful, but he is not solely to blame. I lost thousands. No surprise. He is in jail and is branded forever. Good thing he openly shared all his life and friends with the world for the muck-rakers. He did it because he did not have bad intent. He failed, horribly, but no worse than my commercial investment broker has over the last 2 plus years. Do you think anyone would have largely invested if he did not have a record of success? His shirt business failed. He should have just declared bankruptcy. Lots of lifes are ruined, yeah. BUT AT LEAST HIS IS, right?
"He did not have bad intent".
To friend of Hugh: Shut the FUCK up. He ran a PONZI scheme but he disguised it as a business. He has EVERY intention to cheat people. When Hugh gets out of jail, he better spend every waking minute of his life earning back the money he owes us. It's NOT over.
