That would make sense if there was actully a bankruptcy filed. No such action has happened. The Outfitter just closed it's doors and kept the money as of this point. Along with the 168 hunters this year, there are around 150 who had $1250 deposits down for 2009.
This is close to 1 mill.USD
For me...if no one knows what happened,or where the people are that took the money,and nothing has happened yet, then I would call it theft, and I would boycott the enrite industry in that area...gee whiz...how about some criminal action. This just looks more like fraud to me, if the company went belly up and there was money left in the til then those hunters should have gotten a small portion of their money back in good faith.
When people start doing the dissapearing act...then there has to be some fraudulent activity involved...
Man for that kind of money...someone just may be looking down the barrell of a 12ga.
