Hi everyone,
Just wanted everyone's opinion and view on Carrier-4/DataDatum. I am looking to buy one of there servers from them and let them collate it for me but I have seen this recent thread about them and wondered if anyone else has been scammed by them. http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1643242
Thanks!

That's Joshua Prout. He's a very well known scammer. VyprNetworks, IgniteServers, GoNode5, DataDatum and now Carrier-4.

Most of his names are a play on of companies with very good reputations e.g Carrier-4 is a play on of Carrier-1. GoNode5 is a play on of our brand. I think he also went by PrivateColo too. I would advise not dealing with him. There are plenty of references of the things he's done on LowEndTalk such as this.

Would never go with them, have heard very bad things and they seem very sketchy. Know someone who purchased hardware from them and never got it.

At Carrier-4 we own everything we touch in this data center you can keep up with us on twitter below.

Let our operations speak for itself social media and other reports can say what they want to say but spending almost 97k on APC cabinets also speaks for itself.

Carrier-4 is an honest and transparent company. Clients of ours have 24/7 live feeds to our facility and can see everything we do in the facility as well as our 24/7 noc office we have on site.

Regardless of what any media says we run an honest company we offer 24/7 access as well as tours of the facility see it with your own eyes as well as meet our CEO.

You have still not addressed how an "honest and transparent company" is involved with Joshua and VyperNetworks. Stating the cost of the APC's doesn't really matter, spending money does not determine if a company scams or not.

Let me tell everyone about Joshua Prout, he is not educated, and he knows just enough lingo to take you to the cleaners.

You want to loose your money for servers and services, sure go ahead the 25k he got me for should not make you hesitate one bit.

Matter of fact just send me you money, and not Joshua because you'll get the same thing, NOTHING. HE IS A CON ARTIST.

DO NOT BE A FOOL, DO YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE ALL THE FORUMS AND ALL THE PEOPLE ARE LIEING ABOUT THIS FUCKED UP PERSON.

There's some silver lining for you and that's the fact the Assistant District Attorney of Harris County is investigating him.

A fair few members of another site were contacted by the Assistant DA with the following message:

If you have been defrauded by Joshua Prout, d/b/a Carrier-4 Data Centers, or GoNode5, please contact Assistant District Attorney Valerie Turner at the Harris County District Attorney's Office: 713/274-5555 or [email protected]

I would recommend you contact them and continue your battle for justice with them. Prout has been known to use names similar to reputable companies to try and defraud people of money e.g Carrier-4 is a play on Carrier-1.

Miss Turner is a wonderful person and will actually listen to what you've got to say. It is not an easy job staying on top of someone like Joshua Prout due to the fact that he is so slippery; however, those days are about to come to a complete standstill.

I would ask any and everyone that Joshua Prout played the same exact game on all of use, send the servers and no up time. I paid a year in advance and many thousands for Admin work, which he told me he knew nothing about after he cashed the check.

He is very forgetful and cannot remember his own lies.

That poster Steph is his partner in crime, they work and collaborate together to rip clients off.

They fabricate different departments with different emails as pose as different people and their one in the same.

I would go as far as to say his family is helping him out as well, since you got to admit this is a very good con.

I cannot post the link because I do not have three post yet; however, just type Joshua Prout in and see what comes up under the department of Justice. The Victim is was a 9 year old boy not a 9 year old girl which is still sick.

Currently He is leased under GONODE5, but will bill you under Carrier-4 Data LLC.

Unfortunately he is not allowed on the property so all his clients equipment for his current scam is at that location and no one has access to anything.

I highly recommend everyone taking at least a little time out of your day some day very soon while Miss Turner is collecting information and report exactly how Joshua Prout scammed you, because it is the same pattern at every data center.

It's just a call, 15 minutes and you will have your payback; however, we all have to work together and don't just let this ride.
