A novel(ized) scam. Kalispell businessman David Tacke’s high-tech startup company Venue Tech. "Masters’ Con"
| September 6, 2007 |  View for printing |
In late 2001, Lakeside investors Jeff Bradford and his wife, Karen Arnett, smelled something rotten coming from the offices of Kalispell businessman David Tacke’s high-tech startup company Venue Tech. Arnett, who retired to Montana with Bradford after 24 years as an executive at AT&T, took a job working at Venue Tech after moving to Lakeside.
The couple invested more than $200,000 of their retirement savings into the company, but after several months of working at the firm, Arnett began to suspect that Tacke was a fraud, and the couple complained to the Montana State Auditor’s office.
