Unfortunately, our company is one of many victims that have been identified through an investigation into money raising activities made on behalf of Mr. Austin Veith. Victims include a few investors in UsedTunes (also known as uMedia), Jon Nordmark who is UsingMiles CEO, Wambo Commerce, and a number of other individuals who have invested in Austin or his companies in the last 5 years. Mr. Veith has no current association with TravelFli / UsingMiles.com, not as an employee nor a shareholder.

The situation has no effect on UsingMiles.com day-to-day operations, and our passionate founder and employees are 100% focused on building a wonderful new world-class travel service! In fact, UsingMiles.com is the ONLY frequent flyer travel tool that was just named one of Entrepreneur Magazine’s “100 Brilliant Companies.” We are honored to accept this accolade.

Moving forward, we intend to fully cooperate with the law enforcement and hope that the innocent people involved in this situation can find justice. We thank you for supporting us through this process.

Wow. This reads like a press release. At the very least it was copy-pasted either here or at [1].
