Welcome to R-Slash Pro Revenge, where a scamming cheater gets screwed out of millions and millions of dollars.
Our next reddit post is from Pred King, so for context on this story, I work as a private investigator.
About three years ago, I had been hired to do a personal contract.
The client, a rich, sleazy snob, was apparently stupidly rich. He hired my unit, which is a five-man team.
He believed his wife was cheating on him with other people,
and he wanted proof of this so he could start his divorce process with solid evidence.
He contracted us for a six-month contract and was to pay the company a certain amount of
dollars upon completion. So we set up surveillance cameras all over this guy's large house and in the woman's
car with the client's permission.
We also had at least one member of our team tailing her at all times.
Day in, day out, we watched their lives, and in this line of work, you either get detached
or emotionally invested.
Kind of like watching a soap opera.
As we watched them, we quickly saw that this lady was a freaking
saint. She volunteered at a soup kitchen at a children's hospital. She helped with local churches
canned food drives, those kinds of things. She was the perfect definition of what a good human should
be. On the other hand, the husband was a total bastard. We caught him bringing women to his house on many different occasions.
Sometimes he would bring two or three girls in one day.
And that was only what we recorded in the house.
We arrive at the four month mark, which is basically where we show all of our evidence and
give the three quarters report.
We show them everything that we found and have a six hour debrief with video and audio
support showing
that she hasn't done any wrongdoing other than a speeding ticket and a few double parking
situations.
After we concluded the debrief, he looked stupified.
He said, so you didn't catch your cheating, then what was the point of me hiring you?
My boss, R. Captain, turns to him with a serious stare, which is perhaps
in the most serious and badass looking face I have ever seen in that man, and said,
you hired us to investigate your wife. You're unhappy that your wife is an honest and
faithful woman? The rich snob is visibly annoyed. He stands up to get his jacket, and
my captain says, look, they're still two months
on the contract. We will keep tailing her and we'll meet again after our contract is up to give
you any updates. The snob turns to him and says, don't bother, this is over, I'm ending it.
Come over when she's not home and get your equipment out. So, a week later, we did exactly that.
So, when contracts like his are made, a small portion is paid up for his commission fee,
and the rest is paid at the end of the contract a lot of time.
In this case, six months.
So fast forward to the next payday after the contract is officially over.
My unit gets a call from our office to come in on the next payday because there's an
emergency meeting regarding us in the last contract.
We get there and we find out the snob pulled the funding and refused to pay us for our work.
So we are getting paid some money just not nearly as much as we should have.
We all left super pissed. We went to lunch and we brainstormed how to get even with this douchebag.
Then we remembered all the house footage of his dirty deeds.
At first we wanted to blackmail him, but that's low and we're better than that.
I remembered the wife so I reached out to her.
I said a date to sit down and explain everything to her.
I showed her the videos of her husband cheating, and she cried for a good half hour.
I think I broke her whole world.
It was gut-wrenching.
I then advised her to get a lawyer and gave her all the collected evidence in my business
card.
The aftermath.
Fast forward about 6 months.
I'm called into court because my company is suing him for fraud, breach of contract,
and unpaid dues.
My company wins the case easily because his lawyers' argument was that we failed to deliver
the results that he wanted.
But we weren't hired to deliver a product.
We were hired to observe and report.
But we got paid in the end.
I was contacted by the wife who thanked me for all the evidence.
She got a divorce.
Because of all the evidence I gave her,
she got almost everything. His huge house, both cars, and a huge cash sum. Moral of the story.
Don't try to screw over people who specialize in gathering evidence and reconnaissance.
Then O.P posted an update. So I got back and touched with the wife. She agreed to meet with me yesterday, she
was delighted to hear from me. We met up at a local coffee shop, and I got to meet her
new husband. She also had two kids with him and was pregnant with her third. She had been
remarried for almost two years now. Now, keep in mind that this is what she told me,
so take it with a grain of salt. She told me how the family of the super snob demanded
they get the house back because
it was their family's ancestral home.
And they offered to buy the house from her almost immediately after the divorce hearing.
She had a realtor come to evaluate the house.
The family wanted to give her $250,000, but the realtor concluded the house's value
was closer to 1.5 million.
The family kept demanding she sell them
the house over the following months.
Then she lied to them and told them
the house's value was appraised at 5 million,
but she would sell it to them
for a $3.5 million family discount.
The very next day, they made a cash offer for the house.
Wow, OP, that client is a complete idiot. Like, what did he expect was going to happen?
You basically gave him hours and hours of evidence of him cheating, and then he flips you
the middle finger, so what, you just delete all those videos of him cheating? What a doofus!
Our next reddit post is from Remarkable Youth. I was working in an organization that was super toxic.
So much so that we were a revolving door.
Most employees stayed only for a few months.
To counter this, our management put a three month notice into everyone's contract, including
the existing employees.
I believe the idea behind that was to make it harder for employees to find a job because
potential employers didn't usually win a wait for three months.
However, this didn't work because most people simply quit and waited for a month or two
before starting their job hunt.
I was there for almost four years.
I needed the money, so I put up with whatever abusive stuff was thrown at me.
My boss, Vince, was not particularly good, but he sometimes respected the fact that I was
the most tiniered grunt in this organization.
After working there for two years, I was doing a lot of extra work in addition to my official
responsibilities, primarily because I was the only one who knew how to do them.
Anyone else who knew had already left, this will become important later.
Inter Raj.
Raj was poached from a somewhat infamous company and was literally flown in from a different
continent.
Raj was brought in to strategically improve our division.
This was quite strange, given that our division generated the most profits.
Within months, Raj made the environment even more toxic.
He pulled Vince's team under him and got Vince fired, and he actively encouraged the
grunts to spy on each other.
Raj also headed out for me from day one.
I still don't know why.
He started making my life much harder than the others.
This culminated in him taking me aside and telling me that I wasn't pulling my weight.
Now at this point, I was doing quite well in the organization and I had been doing a lot
of additional work, so I was quite angry.
So I started looking for other jobs.
Fortunately I was able to find a job that was willing to wait three months, so it was my
turn to take Roger's side and tell him that I quit.
And boy, Roger was pissed.
He went from denial to negotiation to acceptance.
At this point, I was called in by HR and told that Raj wanted to be gone now. The insane
part was that they wanted me to pay the company for the two and a half month shortfall in
notice. I obviously refused and then went back and checked the contract. It turns out
that a notice of less than three months could only happen through mutual consent and the initiating party had to compensate the other party for
the shortfall. The next day, I stopped doing almost all of my work. I logged in and logged
out, but past that, I did nothing. I stopped doing any additional work that I'd been doing
and I started taking it really, really, slowly on my primary job responsibilities.
Since no one understood the details of what I did, I knew it would be very hard for Raj
or HR to prove that I was doing any of this on purpose.
Then I just sat back with my popcorn.
Soon there was a complete meltdown all around.
Raj would pull me into meetings and scream and try to bully me, and I would say nothing
but just smirk.
Next, they tried to have someone shout at me so they could learn what I did, but remember
I said earlier how I was the only one who knew how some of the old systems worked?
Well, now I claim that I didn't really remember any of them, so obviously I couldn't
hand over the work.
Raj could do nothing about this, because none of this had been my official responsibility
as part of my original contract.
Since the leadership had been only too happy to make me do this for free, soon my workplace
turned into a dumpster fire.
HR and Rosh Martined up and offered to buy out my notice if I cooperate and help transition
my work.
But I refused.
Then to twist the knife further, I started having meetings
with fellow grunts and encouraged them to leave as well. HR tried to kick me out twice more,
but I ended up serving the full three months. Our next reddit post is from Frisbeen. So, when
the new supervisor came into the department, they were one of those people who wanted to make
a bunch of unnecessary changes and implement a host of tedious rules. He would write people up for being a minute late, for performing the
job in a way that he didn't like, for breathing in the wrong direction, etc. You get the idea.
Anyways, the department that he came into was staffed by very senior members who had
been there for so long that they were making even more money per hour than the supervisor.
They had also been through their fair share of terrible supervisors.
It's just part of the job at the company where we work.
Most of our supervisors are terrible because most of them are fairly young
and this is their first big boy job, even if it is blue collar work.
But we just keep our heads down and do our work since none of us can afford to leave.
Since these veteran workers had been there for so long, they immediately noticed when
their pastubs were smaller than before.
This new supervisor was paying them for one less hour than what they actually worked.
Every single day they worked.
A lot of these guys were making 20 bucks an hour or more, so that's 5 hours a week,
ending up to about 400 bucks a
month less than what they should be paid. Of course, they were going to notice. I seriously have
no idea how the supervisor thought he could get away with it. The veteran workers immediately came
up with a plan. They decided to just keep quiet. They would just let him continue shorting them
until the moment was right, because they knew the company would be forced to pay them the missing time, as well as a settlement
to keep out of court if they played their cards right.
So they waited.
They kept putting up with the supervisor's terrible rules and attitude, and said nothing.
They knew the supervisor was trying to get promoted, which was why he had been moved to their
department in the first place.
By underpaying his workers, he made himself look more productive with fewer hours needed.
Of course, this made him look like the better candidate.
He kept up with the annoying rules and the terrible attitude the whole time,
which only made the revenge even sweeter.
Everyone in the company knew that this guy wanted the promotion that was coming up.
He wouldn't shut up about it. In the break room, in the company knew that this guy wanted the promotion that was coming up. He wouldn't shut up about it.
In the break room, in the office, everywhere.
He told anyone who looked remotely alive how he just knew that he was going to get it.
Seven months went by, and the supervisor got promoted, just like he said he would.
That's the moment the veteran workers chose to come forward, and it couldn't have played
more perfectly in their favor.
Our company uses a time clock system and each employee has a badge they used to clock in.
The supervisor finalizes the time cars on the computer and absolutely everything is
tracked.
Essentially, this supervisor was deleting their punch in and starting them up an hour
later every day for seven months.
Now with our system, you can't just delete punches.
You have to add comments because, like I said, everything is tracked.
So, the supervisor would put in BS notes like,
1, 2, 3, 4, or some other gibberish to get it through.
Every department supervisor also has to keep track of a physical binder
that records what the startup time is for the night was supposed to be
So if there was any issue they can reference the book so when the veteran workers came forward
It took less than 10 minutes of digging to pull up everything and see just how badly he had screwed up
There was screaming crying and a lot of apologies from the supervisor
But the damage was done the supervisor was immediately fired and now all the guys he screwed over were getting back pay
Plus over time and a settlement. The great thing about this story is that since they waited until after he became the supervisor
That means this guy will always think back on that on that feeling of elation and satisfaction
He got when he got promoted and know that he can never get that feeling again. So not only did they get him fired, they also crushed his dreams.
Our next reddit post is from Ha Ha Thunk. So a sweet older lady in our church was a retired nurse.
She never married and she had no kids. She had a heart attack. And while she was in the hospital, her niece and nephew thought
that she was dying.
So they came to her house and took her stuff!
Her apartment was small, but she had some very nice crystal and silver and some lovely
antique furniture.
When she came home from the hospital, she had no dishes and almost no furniture.
Her niece and nephew denied it, but the neighbors had seen them
carting everything away.
Several years later, she passed away.
Her most recent will,
dated after her heart attack,
left $1 each to her niece and nephew.
Everything else went to the church.
Her estate was $9 million.
So I've heard about this.
Apparently the reason why people leave like $1 to other people
in the will is because that way they can prove that they didn't forget about them.
Because apparently people can say that, hey, I'm supposed to get something but clearly
she forgot so something's wrong with the will, but no, no, no, you got $1.
So she didn't forget you, she just didn't want you to have anything.
And beneath that, we have this post from Sublime Dom.
A coworker of mine is in the midst of a situation like this currently.
He used to run errands and do odd jobs for a nice old lady who was in a care home.
She had only moved there initially due to her husband's death, but after he passed, she
stayed.
My coworker would run errands to the post office, pharmacy, her favorite bakery, etc.
twice a week or so while doing his landscaping, and she would always give him like 75 to 100 bucks,
with holiday bonuses being over 500 bucks occasionally. She was rather well off, and her son had died,
so she had no other family around. When she finally passed away, my coworker was told that he was
named as the beneficiary
in her will.
He was flattered and figured that it would be a small but appreciated sum, perhaps a few
thousand bucks at most.
When he got the official call from the lawyer handling the estate, he was absolutely dumbfounded.
The actual cash value at the time of the call was approximately $300,000.
And this was before the sale of some of the investments which was projected to add another
$100,000.
He was well 20% of her total estate.
One of like four or five people sharing various amounts.
The rinko here was the daughter-in-law throwing the will into a legal quagmire since she was
left nothing. She argued that the attorney influenced the mother-in-law throwing the will into a legal quagmire since she was left nothing.
She argued that the attorney influenced the mother-in-law to exclude her, however she
wasn't featured in either of the two previous revisions.
Turns out that, years prior, the son and that daughter-in-law went behind that lady's
back to the husband as he was in declining health and then borrowed a large sum of money
and essentially disappeared moving
six hours east.
When the old lady found out, she changed her will immediately, considering that payment
to be their inheritance.
That daughter-in-law is going to receive exactly what she deserves.
A bunch of lawyer fees for a nuisance suit.
If things go well, my coworker will be able to pay off his house and get a new property
where he intends to retire, as well as provide a nice investment portfolio of his own to
retire on.
