#ConManKen - Aways Working - For YOU!



Oh my fucking God! Yes, #ConManKen is working "for you!" Don't worry, he's got it all under control.

You know the following is authentic. Shit, it has Ken's inability to spell written all over it ;)
"As many of you may know, I, Ken “Whit” Whitman, have been a background Actor on The Walking Dead for three episodes. (he means "Extra") I want to start out by saying it is an honor to have worked on the Walking Dead as an extra.  I love to tell the stories of working on set when I am a guest at stores and events.  (in Ken speak - I like to enhance my BS status as an extra into what it isnt)
Recently I bought a Comic Book shop in Somerset Ky called Little Monsters Games & Comics, LLC. (with "no money down!) We sale all kinds of nerd and geek things.  Comic Book, Magic The Gathering Cards, D&D, Walking Dead, you name it. 
Several weeks ago I met a man named King Jones (bullshit name if I ever heard one, and 20 years as an active LEO I heard lots of BS), from Russel Springs KY, who stated that he was the third largest collector of The Walking Dead merchandise in the world. (might I ask who are numbers one and two? I'm beginning to smell something, and it smells like...)  This 67 year old man (because he gave Ken his exact age - frivolous details are the sign of bullshit) seemed very likable and proceeded to show me his collection that he brought to my store.  He brought me multiple Walking Dead  items, including, 4 Scripts signed by actors, a proto type Negan bat, origianl Funko pop drawings, A couple CGC Walking Dead CGC Graded Comics, and Michonne Boots, saying that the boots were all purchased buy collectors from charity auctions. (No, I did not make any of the typos here)
It took us a few days to figure out they were fake (fuck you Ken - WE told you they were fake you lying sack of shit), and I immediatly reported it to the Police.  Thankfully NONE of the items given to me on consignment were sold.  Mr. King was questioned by the police in my store and he was told to never try to sell these items again. (I call bullshit. Simple bullshit.) 
However, due to how the law works, the fake items were given back to Mr. Jones, who I hope hopefuly destroyed said materials, or is looking for the people who sold him the items. (Kenny, would you like to say any of this under oath?)
I am very happy in my decision to work with the police about this unfortinate situation.  I am not happy that the police did not take the items for any type of evidence and only gave Mr. Jones a warning but in the USA everyone is innocent until proven guilty. (holy fuck dude - if there was a crime committed, he would have been arrested. Are these the same police as your imaginary FBI that were to be waiting at my door? I still have the tea waiting on their arrival) But that is the law folks. Deep down in my heart I hope that Mr. Jones is a victom also (I'm sure he is a "victom" - spell check dude, try it, use it, love it - it makes you look less an imbecile), but fell compelled to let people know of my story so this does not happen again. 
They say, If you don't get what you want to get experience.  I now know what a real CGC comic slab looks like.  I now know how to check letter of authentisties!  (right. Whatever. Just make sure the next forgery looks more "authentisties!") And believe me, I am checking any third party materials that comes in my store.   
AMC Networks, & CGC Comic grading systems have been notified and are fully away of the situation. (they were notified, but not by you. Holy shit Ken, you are spinning one hell of a tale) I can only hope that they contine to pursue these fakes and find the people who ruin fandom for the little guy. 
In conclusion, I am truly sorry for my unknowing envolvment in this situation, and appreceate all our local customers who have stuck beside me during this unfortiunate situation. ("I need rubes, damn it!")
Take care!  Ken “Whit” Whitman"

  1. Way to go Whitless! Taking credit for other people's work! Next thing you know, he'll be saying that he gave out the masters for KODT to a 3rd party to work on, and they stole it! And of course, they will be a non-extant company on a faked letterhead, and it turns out that he just used the drives for some kind of porn download.

  2. Man. This clown Ken. He's a fraud and anybody with a brain between their ears or capable of doing a bare minimum amount of research knows it at this point. Stuff like this (telling obvious lies in an attempt to lay his own fraud at the feet of others) is just icing on the cake. To anybody reading this: DON'T GIVE MONEY TO KEN WHITMAN. HE'S A LIAR AND A FRAUD, DOZENS OF TIMES OVER.

  3. the fact that he's not in jail or in receipt of a tremendous beat down is a source of constant amazement to me

  4. How "unfortinate"... Am I the only one here picturing this King Jones character as wearing a pimp hat ? That's how clichés work.

    1. And your point being? Oh... you're suggesting I am the one who created the fraudulent product. Why not suggest I rape people? Or have murdered someone?! I mean all is possible when you just make stories up and pull it out of thin air.

      Hell you guys are less accurate and less entertaining then FOX news.

      I use to worry myself about you Jolly, now I just pity you. What a dark vile man spending hours hating me. Creating misinformation about me so you can get people to troll me and make my life hell.

      You all define yourselves by what you hate, not what you love. When I look at some of you on facebook, its I hate this, and I hate that, and blah, blah, blah

      Many of your trolls hide behind fake names, your paper puppy army has no power over me. Not any more at least.

      I am rebuilding myself slowly, from the bottom of the barrel. A place you tried to keep me. And you know what, I forgive you.

      Now excuse me, As I pull my self back up buy my own shoe laces.

    2. Ken I'm suggesting you've made it a career of ruining "fandom for he little guy". Check your six kickstarter comment pages sometime to see what I mean. You DO remember you ran six kickstarters and never delivered. Right?

      Delete
    3. I know EXACTLY what your suggestion, and using this thread to deflect the Libel for another question.

      You don't get to pose a question, your not in charge.

      You STRAIT up suggested I was the one committing Fraud.

      But to answer your question: I do remember my Kickstarters, I deal with them every day. Do you remember what its like to write inventive funny stories? Kind of hard to do so when you full of vile and hate.

      I don't know much, But I know you spend at least an hour a day thinking about the hate you have for me. I have forgiven you. Now as I said, back to rebuilding my life.

      Haters gonna hate. Lovers gonna love.

    4. Why yes Ken. Based on your long history of lies and the conga line of victims in your wake my first thought was "hmmmm. I wonder if Ken was knowingly selling fakes*.

      Yeah. That was my opinion. Good enough for your lawyer?

      Delete
  6. My guess? Another falling out with Marcus because sales are down and Ken is missing payments. Ken must have needed to fabricate some defense against that accusations of impropriety. If Marcus was smart, there's a morality clause in that contract and he may have threatened to yank the store back.

  8. If someone is in his area, please go to the police station and look at the police report for this incident. If there is one, of course. If not, then we know he’s full of it.

    1. How hard is to find if a police report is filed online? Can we search by city, county, and state? Would it be under the company name or Ken's name. Are there numbers with the police report?

      Delete
    2. there was no report. if the items were returned, there was no crime.

      assuming any of this line of shit is true

      police reports are generally not public although the press may get access to them for crime reporting, often heavily redacted. Remember, you have victims' info on such as well as the accused.

    3. I work at Maddox in London and can confirm the FBI have been in the store on several occasions.

  9. [This is a copy/paste from what I posted on G+ to Erik's public post. Not in any way meant to defend Ken. Just my 2 cents on the name.]

    King Jones could be a real name. To me that is the least unbelievable thing. I once knew a guy named Sterling Silver. I have seen some real doozies of names in current times in my job supporting payroll software. Not to mention weird names I have come across doing genealogy.

    A quick Google leads to a King Jones in Kentucky on FB. Did Ken build this FB as a "fall guy" or is Ken using a real person as a fall guy? Also possibly a coincidence. [Very unlikely.]

    1. "King" is the last name of Whitman's buddy/enabler, Marcus King. "Jones" is a common fake last name, along with Smith. This leads me to suspect that this was just a lame fake name, and any resemblance to a real person's name was indeed a coincidence.

      Even if Whitman did in fact use a real person's name deliberately, I don't believe any part of that story he told.

    2. Ken has thrown so many balls in the air, that what truth there might be is so well hidden, one can never tell.
      I get it, that his M.O. It does indeed look like he grabbed the name of someone he must know. I'm just amazed he hasn't had papers served. If anyone has successfully served him, you'd think they'd shout it from the rooftops.
      Thankfully, I didn't back any of his Kickstarters. I'm just commenting from the peanut gallery.

    3. My M.O. is to tell the truth based on the information I have today.

  11. King Jones is a real person. As noted on FB. He is listed as a friend of Marcus and he lives in the area and his FB page is not a new one. ( https://www.facebook.com/king.jones.568 ) So that part of the story and his age seem accurate. (and I'm not a defender of Ken at all).

    1. I'm sure there are real people named "Holden Caulfield" as well; that doesn't make them the protagonist of The Catcher in the Rye.

      To me it's really a moot point whether Whitman invented a name that happened to be a real person's name, or whether he deliberately "borrowed" the name of a friend of a friend to throw under the bus; either way, I doubt that any part of Whitman's story is true. The name is the least of it.

    1. Civil & Criminal law are two very different things. And it's about what one can prove, not what one believes.

      Many people believe the story's made up about me, yet there is no proof an 95% of these stories. If you search my history... never been to jail, never been taken to civil court, just an average joe.

      So why no Fraud

      Because fraud requires Mens rea, which is hard to prove when someone spent a majority of the money producing a product and then running out of money. Had I a crook, I would have taken said money and done nothing with it, but have a good time. I spent the majority of it producing product. My only crime is being a bad business man and running out of money. ZOE Entertainment, who we all agree is a great company, ask $450K for a 90 min movie. I, being a novice only asked for $120k to produce 120min of film. And to make matters worst, I have had trolls follow me around making it hard for me to live, hell I was nearly homeless and people were telling me I got what I deserved.

      Still I get death threats, and so on. But you know, I try not to live in fear to much. However, I do report people to the FBI, which no one will do a thing about, just like they wont come after me for fraud.

      I hope that answers your question, and keep the faith!

    2. Hey Ken ... you didn't spend any money on the 2 Pencil Dice or Deck Dice KickStarters. So you did not spend the majority of the money producing the product (a majority defined at 51%). You stole the money from those products and fraudulently used it on something else. You cannot produce receipts showing that you spent a majority of the monies for those 3 projects. So yeah ... fraud applies for those 3 projects definitely. So nice try ... but in this case your own words about what Fraud is condemn you for those 3 projects.

  17. Whats funny is that all of you are so blinded by being the WHITE KNIGHT THAT PROTECTS EVERYONE for Ken Whitman that you don't see the laws you break to attack me, on line, where I work. The shit you guys do is just ILLEGAL as hell. But everyone believes they are the good guys. Even the KKK thought they were white nights hiding behind masks. Your mask are just fake internet profiles.

    I am not moving, You know where I am. I have nothing to hide or run from. Im no longer afraid of this paper army or white knights.

    Now, please excuse me, I have a business to grow so I can afford to finish my kickstarters.

    1. oh??? so you are still working on our kickstarters? How about an update on your KS pages to let folks now. I has been 15 months since you've so much as dropped a note there.

    2. "Now, please excuse me, I have a business to grow so I can afford to finish my kickstarters."
      We now have it in black and white. You did not use the money from the Kickstarters to finish the Kickstarters. What you used that money for is irrelevant. You maliciously defrauded people of money.

      Just one more thing. Yes, people know where you live. It's the demi-South. The wilderness of Kentucky. Perhaps you might want to consider relocation to a more urban area where you are more difficult to locate.

    3. @ Jolly... Yes

      @Will.... You act like I have been hiding because that the ONLY reason you can fathom that no one has ARRESTED me or got me for FRAUD. How about its because I'm Innocent of Fraud. How come thats not a possibility? Your black & with view of the world shows your IQ.

      As, for Jolly, his Black & White pictures he paints for you guys about me, you drink it down like Kool-aid from Jim Jones, only Jollys cool aid is anger and vile.

      Everyone needs to be the hero. Jolly is no hero.

    4. Hey, Kenny! If "all that shit" is "illegal as hell', why hasn't people been arrested and charged with it? That fake FBI friend of yours falling down on the job?

  18. I can't defend Whitman, but I did a search at https://www.truepeoplesearch.com and there is a King B Jones Jr Age 67 from Jamestown, KY who did live in Russell Springs, KY. That site sometimes isn't as up to date as I'd like (so he could be in Russell Springs, KY again or perhaps still), but that appears to put a "King Jones" in existence who is 67 in KY.

    1. Oh wait. What if the story I told was ALL true. Would that blow your little minds?!

      The bad part of this, well at least for me is, when it comes out to be true... someone will say.

      Well thats what you get KEN for being a fraud yourself. And to that guy I say... Fuck you. And if you wish bad things upon people... then fuck you too. Have a great day!

    2. Like a broken clock is correct twice a day, even a lying, swindling conman can tell the truth.

      But, Kenny's been lying since way back in the day. It's something he's always had a problem with.

      Therefore, with Ken Whitman, the safest, smartest thing is to always believe he is lying. Cause it's what he does.
