Fitness Equipment Depot Worldwide (WWW.fitnessplus.com) is not even a registered corporation in the state of NY, but is the main advertised company. FEDWW does business under CAC Fitness and Zachleigh Fitness. It is owned and operated by John Greeley who has incorporated (and dissolved/abandoned/bankrupt) 11 different businesses under various people’s names over the past 25 years to steal and scam people and businesses nationally and internally, evade IRS and NYS taxes, and commit check fraud and kiting, and launder money for personal and business purposes. When the CORP accrues too many financial liabilities it is dissolved, abandoned, and/or left bankrupt and a new corporation is started under a different name, leaving hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid debt. Half of the CORPS have been dissolved by the NYS Secretary for unpaid sales tax. Col-G went bankrupt for $1-$10 million, including $400, 000 of unpaid IRS & NYS taxes. CAC is in a litigation for stealing $300, 000 equipment. Three CORPS are operated at once (FEDWW, CAC Fitness and Zachleigh Fitness) and money is shifted between multiple accounts to hide from customer charge backs, cover personal withdrawals, launder money and kite checks. Other CORP names include Col-G Fitness, Col-G Transport, ZKJ Fitness, ZK Fitness, Z Fitness, KAC Fitness, International Fitness Resources, Weight Management, and John Greeley's Fitness Plus. The company sells equipment not in stock, sends customers wrong/damaged equipment, and charges 20% restocking cancellation fee. They buy inventory with checks that return for insufficient funds after the equipment is in their possession. They overpay for equipment on Ebay/Craig's List & request the customer to pay the shipping company (a.k.a John) with the extra money. After people wire money, the check bounces, leaving them with a loss for equipment and money. There are numerous complaints: Yelp, [redacted], COMPLAINTSBOARD, BBB, Google, Glass Door, & Nassau & Suffolk DA.
