American Liquor Alliance is a SCAM!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 2, 2009 -- Abraham Lincoln was once quoted as saying, “You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.” This statement, in a nutshell, describes American Liquor Alliance, LLC, a company featured on the Go BIG Network and countless other investment-seeking websites. Please, take the time to read this message carefully – you’ll be glad you did.

This message is intended as a public warning to anyone considering doing business with or investing in American Liquor Alliance, LLC (ALA), Keith A. Lawes (Keith Lawes) and/or Andrew H. Tasker (Andrew Tasker or Andy Tasker). The statements contained here are opinion and you are advised to draw your own conclusions after performing due diligence on the company and the opinions expressed here. This message pertains to both ALA and all sister companies operating at its 140 Fountain Parkway, Ste. 220, St. Petersburg, FL 33716 address and under the direction of Mr. Lawes:

• American Liquor Alliance, LLC (ALA)
• Rogue, LLC
• RSVP Wine and Spirits, LLC
• Global Wine and Spirits, LLC
• FullLiquor.com
• Global Financial Investments, LLC
• Stone Commerce, LLC
• Next Level Advantage, LLC
• Next Level Management Services Organization, LLC
• Next Level Staffing, LLC
• Next Level Strategies, LLC

American Liquor Alliance, LLC (ALA) has repeatedly made false statements to employees and creditors regarding payment of monies due. The history of ALA’s officers, Mr. Lawes and Mr. Tasker, is highly questionable. The business is on the brink of bankruptcy but is continuing to hang on and make repeated promises they can’t deliver on.

Payroll

Employees were notified Thursday, October 23, 2008 that the paycheck they should be receiving the following day, Friday, October 24, 2008 was “unavailable”. Mr. Lawes and Mr. Tasker, in conjuction with Kerry Roberts, Vice President of Human Resources, proceeded to notify all employees that they would simply be receiving a paper check rather than their usual direct deposit. Not thinking anything of it, employees went on working diligently and productively. However, when the paper checks were printed and handed out, Ms. Roberts notified all employees to hold them and not cash them as the checks were no good and would bounce.

This went on for another week when, finally, employees were told the true story: the company was broke and couldn’t pay them. A story was contrived that mentioned the poor economy, no investment activity and no cash flow. While the situation was dire and grim, Mr. Lawes and Mr. Tasker made it out to seem that there were investors “on the hook” that were just itching to write that million dollar check to breathe life back into the company; this turned out to be another false statement. Know that during this time, and more than likely still today, Mr. Lawes and Mr. Tasker continue to drive around in their brand new Hummer
