Zeek Reciever not impressed with Douglas & Auction Attics
As first reported by BehindMLM in mid July, Darryle Douglas is gearing up to launch a new penny auction venture he’s calling Auction Attics.
The problem?
Darryle Douglas owes victims of the Zeek Rewards Ponzi scheme over two million dollars… and he’s looking to market Auction Attics with a Zeek Rewards victim database he doesn’t own or have the rights to.
Douglas’ recent marketing efforts have now attracted the attention of the Zeek Rewards Receiver, who is decidedly not impressed with Douglas and his Auction Attics antics.
Identifying Auction Attics as a “new investment scheme”, in a motion filed on the 24th of August the Receiver writes:
Darryle Douglas was a key member of Zeek’s senior level management involved with affiliate communications and relations.
Mr. Douglas received more than $1,975,000.00 from the scheme, and the Receiver has obtained a default judgment against him in the amount of $2,271,239.20.
It has come to the attention of the Receiver that Mr. Douglas has begun promoting a new investment scheme known as “Auction Attics” and intends to use a copy the ZeekRewards affiliate database to solicit investors into this new scheme.
In addition to wanting the funds awarded to Zeek’s victims via default judgement, the Receiver also contends that Douglas (right) should be made to immediately return the Zeek affiliate database:
It is clear that Mr. Douglas has no intention of paying the Receivership the money he owes, and he has now moved on to his next attempt to obtain unsuspecting victims’ money.
The evidence at hand demonstrates that Mr. Douglas intends to or has already begun using the ZeekRewards affiliate database to gain investors for his new scheme.
To that end the Receiver has asked the court to order Douglas
to appear in the Western District of North Carolina for a deposition, and to produce all financial records from November 1, 2011 to the present for his personal and business-related accounts prior to such deposition.
This, the Receiver claims, will aid ‘the return of these assets (the funds owed and the affiliate database) to the Receivership‘.
A Judge has yet to rule on the matter but if the Receiver has his way, Auction Attics might just be DOA.
Stay tuned…

Thanks for reporting this. I am quite certain Mr. Douglas will show up in court and turn all that stuff over. Not.
I was privy to a conversation recently on Facebook by a guy pumping this Auction Attics for Darryle. The guy I was speaking to is a total Douglas supporter and was also in Zeek.
When I brought up the issue about the judgment, he told me that he and Darryle laugh at it. People like this do not care. They are going to ignore any legal action.
The only thing I believe will potentially change them is when things are taken by force. And I am pretty sure whatever they have that can be taken has been squirreled away.
I have said it before and I will say it again but I really believe that the message that is being sent to people like this is they can get away with this for a very very long time with little or no consequences. Harsher action needs to be taken in my opinion.
Men the funny part is the whole idea! this idiots asking for money without even explaining what the money is for!
Means you can become a c o owner, the reason why you want to become one is because he knows what he is doing! In genera this is the dumbest idea I heard in years!
Auction Attics Facebook account has been dead for two weeks.
