JASON RICHARD RASHLEY - Convicted fellon,rip off artist, scammer.  

The ripoff game continues... CONTINUED OFF OF 419-215-5465 thread onto this new phone number.

Wow... got a call from Jason out of the blue... Had sent out an e-mail blitz to agencies and contacts looking for booking agent/tour scheduling. The initial call from him was on on 5/11/2011. He talked with me for quite a long time, hitting on all the right buzz words and saying all the things a band looking to tour wants to hear. His number as displayed on my phone was 615-924-4371. He said I was about to miss the Summer window of opportunity along the east coast, and he need to ge tthings hopping. He asked me to send him like $400 as an earnest payment showing that we were committed. He had to convince his partners that we were worthy of being taken on.

There were a few things that made me suspicious. I asked him to send me an e-mail and he did. The e-mail address was jason@universalartistdevelopment.com. I went to the internet header and used an e-mail analyzer to find out where it came from. Several e-mail analyzers said it came from northern Alabama, and several said it came from Nashville, and one said it came from Arizona.

I went to www.universalartistdevelopment.com and looked the website over. It is hosted through Go-Daddy, and I believe it was just created within the last few months (February 2011?). The who-is data is private so no names or contact info. The website is just a shell that never really tells you anything. There are no people listed, nor are there any links to anything that would make you believe this is anything more than a front.

Here is the text from his signature block.

There was no phone number or last name, or fax number. The address in his e-mail signature block was for a highrise out in LA. I contacted the building management and asked if they had anyone with offices there from Universal Artist Development. They replied that there was no such business in this building, nor anyone by name of Jason Rashley.

I knew of this guy because I had found this thread regarding Jason R. Rashley while I was looking for booking and touring assistance. Then, wow... I get a call from a Jason... who wants me to pay to get booked all without any paperwork...

Hope this current information regarding Jason helps someone out there...

he also uses different alias's.. Jason davis, Jason Henricks, Jason Richards....w6h8

Jason "Rich" Rashley (aka Jason Davis) is a total BS artist. He has 0 credibility, has no history of any success (except as a successful thief til he gets caught, which is most of the time), is in and out of prison and halfway houses constantly and is just a total lying clown. Even his "hockey scar" on his face is reported to actually be scars from when he took a beat-down from some other "unhappy clients". He hangs between Tennessee and Louisiana but claims to be an L.A. guy. He took me for $900 worth of music industry-related services. Trust your gut instincts and don't let the fantasy of his launching you into the big-leagues delude you into even hanging out with this [***]. I have spoken to at least 3 other people who he's fooled. Karma will eat him eventually...
