Pleasure Dynasty Carlos - Scumbag Scammer Theif
 
This scumbag mother fucker promised me distribution through his label and that we would be in contact every step of the way as he released my title. After a press release and getting whatever deals he could with my title "Top Teens" http://www.hotmovies.com/video/21691...ens-POV-Vol-1/ he just disappeared and stopped returning emails and calls. Before the release we talked almost daily.

http://imgcover-2.hotmovies.com/imag...16.cover.0.jpg

This scumbag mother fucker hasn't returned emails or phone calls in 4 months. He hasn't posted on Twitter or any of his sites either. If anyone else has had experience like this with this piece of shit please post on here. We can't have dishonest scumbags that just rip people off in this industry. Boy did I learn a lesson fucking with this guy. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is.


I contacted Hot Movies about removing my title since this guy scammed me straight up. Anyone have a contact for them so I can speak with them directly???? Also is there a way I can find out what other deals he got? What a piece of shit this guy is.

MaDalton 04-24-2013 08:39 AM

man, things like this suck - i have been scammed in a similar way years ago (Robert Donis, i am not forgetting about you!)

good luck getting it resolved!

NaughtyRob 04-24-2013 08:41 AM

Sucks man, do your best to get that shit down and release stuff on your own.

Jay-Rock 04-24-2013 08:55 AM

If I would have only seen this ad about him scamming others as well! http://pleasuredynasty.net/

Jay-Rock 04-24-2013 08:57 AM

Looks like he took his site down. http://pleasuredynasty.com

Jay-Rock 04-24-2013 08:59 AM

Wow looks like he stole $140k this guy is good. http://www.pleasuredynastyfilms.com/

Here is another post I found about him.

Carlos Cavero founder of Pleasure Dynasty
Posted on 03/07/2013
If you are considering entering into any business agreement with Carlos Cavero, Pleasure Dynasty or PD Films please be very careful. You could lose your money, your content or both. You should read below for details or you can contact me at [email protected]. I am Jesse Jama, managing Director of JAMA Entertainment.

On their first attempt, Carlos Cavero and company, conceived the parody of ?Taxi Driver?. It was well made but sales were disappointing. Then gaining the confidence of several other ?investors?, they secured financing for a series of disappointing failures. The padody concept was becoming stale, directors were holding production content, performers were not being paid and the films were too ?dark? in the opinion of the distrubutors and buyers. Subsequent titles did not sell well.

During November and December of 2011, Jama Entertainment made three titles using the pleasure dynasty platform but with a difference. Jama Entertainment produced a lighter form of porn parody with ZORRO XXX, followed by the Super Porn series # 1 & # 2. For the first time, it seemed that some Pleasure Dynasty titles would break even. Pleasure Dynasty had the exclusive right to distribute our films and they did well enough but all publicity expenses were paid by JAMA Entertainment.

The problem was that the distriibutor paid PD Films, but Carlos and company kept the money. They promised many times to account for the funds received, and due to JAMA Entertainment, but they only sent one token payment amounting to less than 10% return on investment. The distributor has advised us that he has paid them about $70,000.00 Dollars as of the end of 2012. We have received none of that money as of the 26th of March 2013.

PD Films has sent us deal memos and reports amounting to over $60,000.00 dollars for broadcast cable distribution, and DVD sales but we have received only a single payment of $11,000. dollars (for broadcast) in September of 2012.

PD Films took our film content and sold it all around the world but they only made one small token payment which was less than 10% of our cost to produce the films. We believe that they have collected at least $70,000. (probably more) of our money but refuse to pay us what is owed.

If that's him, I think that I've tracked down a mainstream contractor business (roofs, cleaning, etc), that he is associated with:

I produced Werewolf in a Women's Prison, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0815258/ with my own money and had a distribution signed contract for $60k for the finished film plus a percentage of everthing sold. The scumbag missed the first payment, and the second payment and guess what the third payment. The FBI raided his home after several complaints from other producers and now he sits in Federal Prison. Stick with your quest put this fucker in jail also. Up side is I have distributed it myself and profited nicely..

Now I think I know who you are... :winkwink:

Looking at your movie catalog, I'm curious if you have ever worked with Annie Cruz?

Although she is a pornstar (AVN awards, 100's of movies), she also appears in a lot of thriller/zombie/B-movie style mainstream movies (she can actually act, and she loves the genre):

http://memoirsofthedamned.com/rambli...e48b_large.jpg

You can find Annie here:

Annie Cruz official website

...and on her blog, Memoirs of the Dead:

http://memoirsofthedamned.com/ramblings/

BTW, Annie is one of the few models/performers that I know who built her own website from scratch (Annie's a bright girl, although you do not want to get on her bad side...she actually started in porn with my website back in 2003/04, when I named her "Annie Cruz").

If you ever cast Annie, tell her I said "Hi"... :)

Hey Jay_Rock, sorry you had the misfortune of working with this ass hat. Jama is my client, I'm helping him with his site, but the features/dvd was all on Carlos' end. He definitely over promised and under-delivered doesn't even begin to scratch the surface.

All of Jesse/Jama's features sold copies, but he has yet to get $1 for PD/Carlos. He FINALLY got the content (that he owns) after months of Carlos bullshitting and nickel and dime-ing him.

We set up the website, among other things to put the heat on him, as well as started legal action.

Far-L 04-24-2013 05:39 PM

I know you are going to hate me for saying this and I am sorry to say it but I have to because others need to hear it before making the same mistake...

You should have done better due diligence before getting into any sort of deal like that with anyone.

In any event, sorry to hear you got burned.

RyuLion 04-24-2013 05:43 PM

Damn Jay, yeah sorry for not making this public earlier, we've been hoping they would pay Jama Entertainment before we announced them..
..bad decision on their end..

Best of luck to you in the future.

JenniDahling 04-25-2013 12:09 PM

I just found out this guy swindled 4 other people. You guys should pool your resources and get legal council to go ofter his ass. I'm guessing he's swindled several hundred k from the various people he's "worked" with.

Dirty D 04-25-2013 03:55 PM

Anyone know any of his "investors"?

You can be sure that none of the investors got paid either.

Haven't been on GFY in a while and it seems I'm not the only one that Carlos owes money to. Last time I saw him was Xbiz last year in Miami. Doesn't owe me as much as he does everyone else but I have 100GB of his content and releases to pay me off.

CaptainHowdy 06-17-2013 06:25 PM

Since you've seen him can you confirm the photo posted is him or not?

Yes that's him- saw him at Xbiz right after Dommy B had asked him for the money he owed him.

I can second that, the pictures including the mug shot is indeed Carlos. I was hoping Xbiz or AVN would run a story on this since I'm sure there are other folks he may have swindled on the DVD side of the world.

Materiaent 12-08-2013 11:53 PM

Sorry, I know this post is getting old but Carlos Cavero had scammed us too and ran off with our money.

We worked with him on two titles back in 2012. South Beach Pickups and Broadcast safe version of the film.

We spent over $25,000 and only received a few thousand of that in return.

He was very good at communicating with me prior and I did lots of due diligence. He was vouched by many producers and distributors until I noticed he lost contact with us and we barely heard back from him again. Then it was too late. I had to track down the person who authored our DVD and the main distributor.

I still having trouble getting in contact with CED (Coastline Distribution), VOD, and several commerce sites that sell our DVD.

WDF 12-09-2013 12:21 AM

If you're in Naples, FL. on 12/11/2013, he will be at the court house answering current charges from his 11/15/2013 arrest.

VikingMan 12-09-2013 01:30 AM

The guys name is "Carlos = STRIKE 1
He lives in Florida = STRIKE 2
His name is "Carlos" = STRIKE 3

Moral of the story: Don't trust guys named Carlos especially if they are from Florida.
