More On Catholic Online

April 30th, 2008

In case you have missed the ongoing saga with Catholic Online, you can read past problems here.

For those who still aren’t convinced that this organization (which still owes us several hundred dollars and is due in court in August on multiple counts of fraud) is bad, you can read the compiled list of liens filed by various government agencies here. Between the IRS, the state of California and Kern County, Michael Galloway and Catholic Online owe over $300,000 in back taxes and fines. This is apart from the money owed to various dioceses, organizations and religious orders that Catholic Financial Services has been holding for a couple of years. If you want the nitty-gritty of the whole case, here it is.

If you are actually paying this organization for advertising, I would recommend you stop. The local tv station is planning on airing an expose on the whole situation soon and being associated with the company when that happens won’t be beneficial to your image.
