Have you been fired or denied employment due to the Auction Insurance Agency's "KO Book" (EKO system) ?

We are investigating use of the Auction Insurance Agency's "KO Book" , Which is now the Electronic KO Book. 

The KO book is used by auto auctions to determine creditworthiness of buyers.  When we did our initial investigation, we determined that in cases where the auction is qualifying the buyers as businesses, the KO book is likely legal because in that context it is not a consumer credit agency subject to the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

We are investigating complaints by individuals  had been involved with a failed dealership and later tries to seek work in the industry as an empoyee of another company who wants to buy vehicles at the auction.  Under the current system, these individuals may be listed in the KO book, with that information used to blacklist or keep the individual out of the auction as an agent of their employer. This effectively keeps these individuals from jobs as buyers. 

We have had two complaints relating to this practice.  If you have been denied employment or terminated as a buyer because of information in the KO book, please call my office at 317-662-4529. 

The information in this post came from multiple sources and is believed to be correcct if you believe any information in this post is factually incorrect, please contact my office.

    1. investing in oil and gas has and is still making a lot of people " very RICH". Investors in oil and gas are getting rich daily. All you need is a secured and certified strategy that will keep your invested capital safe by opting out with no withdrawer crunch. A considerable number of investors worldwide have seen gains of 75,063%, personally I have made over 600%. For example I started investing with $1,000 and I made $3,000, $3,500- $5,000 weekly. Last year at the start of the year, I increased my invested capital to $10,000 and I made approximately $105,000 before the end of year. I've never seen profit opportunities like this before in any market even when other traders complain of losses. Now for the doubters, not only is it possible, it's actually happening right now. All you need is a good and secured strategy, a good investment platform, Appetite and market conditions.
