This dirtbag has been scamming people all the way back to the early 90's. His Bio on www.astrallc.com is completely sham. All his claims are a complete fabrication! If you go to Maine he is well known for the basketball team sham where employees and players did not get paid to scamming people out of their money with investment opportunities. ANYONE IN MAINE THAT KNOWS HIM WOULD NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH HIM. He so successful he has been sued several times (judgements against him) and has filed for bankruptcy. He claims to be a former Marine from 1991-1995.....Its 100% not true. Ask him to provide his DD214. Ask him to provide his diploma from the University of Southern Maine. Better yet, call the university because he probably fabricated a diploma as well. Google him its all on the web
