Newsagents concerned about My News Plus

Newsagents have reported being approached to participate in My News Plus.  This is being promoted by a business called Commerx1.  The website is www.commerx1.com.au.  Ross Whitehead claims to be a principal of Commerx1 on his Linked In page, although the domain name was registered by a Ross Smart.

Read how they describe their business:

MyNewsPlus.com.au MNP is an on-line department store designed specifically for Newsagents. MyNewsPlus will be licensed and operated on behalf of more than 2,000 newsagents Australia wide. The business will be managed by MyNewsPlus Pty Limited, founded specifically to develop and manage the on-line sales and delivery infrastructure for MyNewsPlus.

Commerx1 has been tasked with the design, development and implementation of the MyNewsPlus technology and logistics infrastructre. Commerx1 is a consulting company which specialises in the development of e-commerce software and fullfillment solutions.

I would be interested to know how they will be licenced and by whom.

Newsagents considering getting involved in My News Plus ought to research Ross Whitehead. Click here to see what Queensland Fair Trading had to say about him.  Then click here to read a story from ZDNet from 2004.

Once you read the two reports above and look at the My News Plus website you can see a pattern.  While newsagents need to form their own view, when asked for my opinion I have said that I would stay away from My News Plus.

    The US scandal about Bernie Madoff as a Ponzi scheme promotor has been written up into book called, “No one would listen” with the lesson on how lazy regulators were despite contant complainst being made about Madoff being a crook. In Australia Consumer Affairs, and ASIC should be pressured to do their job, and demonstrate when fraud occurs prosecutions are commenced, as the crooks will keep going. Sadly small business is too often the target and bears all the costs of the govt inaction, when only a small effort of prosecution could change history. Legitimate businesses also suffer by rogues who can break the law and suffer no consequences.

    John I have read Harry Markopolos’ book. It is a terrific read.

    You are right to mention ASIC. I have found them to be weak and disinterested in regulating when it comes to small business.

    Yesterday if you asked for your nearest MyNewsPlus newsagent on their website, you received a list by postcode of virtually every Newsagent!

    Today though, that has all been removed.

    Mark, I would like to correct some gross inaccuracies and inferrences you have made in this post.

    I am CEO, director and 100% Shareholder in MyNewsPlus Pty Limited.
    Ross Whitehead is not an employee, an executive nor a shareholder in MyNewsPlus and as such does not have any involvement in day to day management of MyNewsPlus.

    MyNewsPlus licences and uses technology designed and developed by Ross Whitehead’s business Commerx1. Commerx1 also, currently host the development and testng servers on which the site currently runs for testing and demonstration purposes. We use this technology because it is proven, it offers unique functionality and it is specifically designed for high transactional e-commerce business.

    You have referred your readers to two sites displaying negative information and comments of Ross Whitehead. While it is not my role to defend Ross Whitehead you have questioned the integrity of MyNewsplus through its association with Ross Whitehead.
    Therefore I feel the need to comment so readers can put the information into perspective.

    In my opinion the information and source documents are grossly inaccurate and were designed to damage the reputation of Ross Whitehead and destroy MyGrocer. I can attest to this inaccuracy with some authority as I was one of the MyGrocer/Mysupercentre licensees who lost money in the MyGrocer venture. In fact I owned and operated 4 territories and lost close to $250k due to the collapse of the company. In my opinion Ross did everything possible to protect the iterests of the majority of licencees and acted in good faith.

    FFurthermore prior to using Commerx1 services with MyNewsPlus, I have used his company’s IT services for the last six years.

    Regarding the comment by Lance, to my knowledge he has not met with any of our team and is misinformed on our system. The existing site is a TEST and DEMONSTRATION Site only. It is not intended to infer in anyway that the agents displayed are currently members of MyNewsPlus. The agents names are there purely to demonstrate to agents. The site is no marketed inanyway to the public at tis time. I understand from a meeting with QNF that this may have been misunderstood by some agents and I have asked Commerx1 to replace these agents with fictious names. Once the iste is live on November 1st only agents that are MNPAgents will be avaialble for selection.

    II am happy to answer any questions personally and my contact details can be obtained from QNF or my email address is Johnb@mynewsplus.com.au

    Mark,
    I have not posted any comment until now. If you are referring to the post above it is from the CEO of MyNewsPlus, and he can speak for himself, and MyNewsPlus. In your post you have inferred that “Ross Whitehead” is the promotor and principal of MyNewsplus and this is incorrect and misleading. You have referred readers to defametory information and comment regarding “Ross Whitehead” with an inference that dealing with MyNewsPlus is dealing with “Ross Whitehead”. This is also misleading and inaccurate. Commerx1 is a supplier of services (including technology and logistics) to MyNewsPlus on a strict commercial arrangement.You recommend that anyone considering MyNewsPlus should research “Ross Whitehead”, once again inferring inaccuarately that “Ross Whitehead” is involved in the day to day management of MyNewsPlus. Since 2005, my business has successfully provided services to Coles Myer, Woolworths, ALH Hotels, Hutchison Communication Services Stream, and News Limited. So using you logic agents should not deal with these company’s because “Ross Whitehead” provided services to them, and that is ridiculous. In regard to the neagtive information to which you refer readers, this is not the forum to defend these defamatory comments. But be advised that defamation action has been iniated against the publishers, and in particular the commenters who feel the internet is the appropriate forum to attack individuals or companies while hiding behind anonymity. I would also ask you to remove the information you have copied from the MyNewsPlus demo site as this is an infringment of copywrite.

    I am personally out of packet $7,500 when the last business E-Biz Solutions went belly-up. I was a software developer working for this business when Ross Whitehead was acting as managing director even though he has been banned from this role in any organisation.

    This looks suspiciously like other businesses Ross has been involved in, they seem to follow the same pattern. You will find a trail of unsatisfied investors who were left out of pocket waiting for broken promises to be fulfilled. Ross is never “running” the company he is only ever a “consultant” providing the technology, same model as myGrocer. John seems to get rolled out at all these events too, one might suspect he has been just as instrumental as Ross in these schemes, or perhaps an unwitting participant.

    According to the ASIC documentation Anne Whitehead and Ross Whitehead are the registered directors for Commerx1 Pty Ltd (ACN 143131588) , now of course there are also three QLD registered business under the name Commerx1 who knows?

    MyNewsPlus Pty Ltd (ACN 145938898) according to the ASIC documentation John Bedford is the sole director but interestingly enough Commerx1 Pty Ltd owns 80% of the ordinary shares.

    My advice spend the $17.80 and do a search and find out who you are really dealing with

    Gentleman,You really need to get a life. I am John Bedford and these are the facts, relating to MynewsPlus.
    1. I am 100% owner of MyNewsPlus Pty Limited;
    2. I am the sole director of the company and run the company, I control the bank accounts and I am sole signatory to those accounts.
    3. It was origianlly intended that Commerx1 would own 8% of the company not 80%, for providing the technology. That is no longer the case as I purchased the rights, due soley to the negativity surrounding Ros Whitehead’s involvement;
    4. I also purchased the rights to Commerx1 software, and the name;
    5. Ross Whitehead does not work in any capacity for Commerx1 or MyNewsPlus.

    Now, James or what ever your real name is. If Ross Whitehead owes you $7,500 I suggest you go to court and get a judgement and prove it, not make defenseless accusations.
    Now, Herman or who ever your name is your inference that I have been instrumental and involved in an so called “scheme” with Ross Whitehead is not only untrue and malicious but defamatory and I suggest you withdraw the comment, or I will take all action available to me to have it removed.

    Dom or whoever you are, your inference that Ross and I are the same person is ridiculous and also I believe defamatory and I intend to seek advice on both Herman’s and your comments on what action I have available. Call Ann Nugent from QNF, she has met the both of us.

    I too am out of pocket for thousands as an ex-employee of Ross Whitehead, Ross Smart or John B or whatever. I was there when Ross came up with the name Commerx1. He knows he is not allowed by ASIC to be an owner or director or CEO of any business, so he creates these fake people to play business leader, when it’s really just him. Since January last year Ross has moved house 3 times that I know of. I can only assume he does this to avoid being contacted by the ombudsman and anyone trying to serve him. Gov’t can’t help if they can’t contact him. I know, I’ve been there and yet he still he finds ways of doing business.

    I was hired by Ross Whitehead in 2010 for MyNewsPlus. We were flown up to Brisbane for dinner and meetings, John was there as well, we were given laptops, documents, and contract forms to sign up news agents. Working vigorously for the territories that Ross designated in Sydney, I started to suspect something fishy when Ross neglected to pay me and kept making excuses for not giving a paycheck. Ross and John, I hope to bump into you on the street some day to discuss the 7+ thousand dollars that I am owed!

    i was employed by ross back in 2008 and had much the same experience as Jason. The first pay check went in after that nothing but excuses. At the time Ross owed at least four of his staff money and from what i know none of us ever got it despite ross providing payment plans and stuff to cover outstanding costs.
    It appears that 6yrs later he’s still doing the same thing.. Surely Asic or somebody should put a stop to this for the benefit of his staff at least!

    This guy will continue to fleece hard working Aussies unless he’s stopped. I cannot believe he’s been rorting and over promising and not delivering for this long and he’s clearly been allowed to. An ASIC slap on the wrist on 4 Sept for running a business as a director when he’s “not allowed to”. Yeah. That should teach this snake a lesson. Then ASIC had the temerity to imply they’d done a terrific job protecting the public.

    Their media release from 8 Sept 2015 stated:

    “ASIC Commissioner Greg Tanzer said that acting in breach of a disqualification order was a serious offence and that Mr Charlton had repeatedly demonstrated his disregard for the law. ‘ASIC will vigorously pursue offenders who continue to act in breach of disqualification orders.

    ‘As this case shows, the consequences of ignoring a disqualification order are significant. ASIC will pursue repeat offenders, for the protection of the public and to ensure those involved in managing companies are acting lawfully’, Mr Tanzer said.”

    Just absolute rubbish.

    I argue most of the two paragraphs especially “vigourously pursue”, “consequences” and “protect”… implies they took John Charlton to town for these offences!

    This low life amoeba has no conscience and will continue to fleece the Aussie public – ASIC and the courts may as well just take their pay cheques and not bother going to work. Useless government agencies and have my complete disdain and distrust.

    BEWARE OF MISINFORMED AND LYING TROLLS

    Firstly, I have been a Licensee of JR Bull for over 12 months and I was one of the first. I have an investment of just over $100k.

    For the past 11 months I have occasionally viewed this site to see the latest BS posted here by you people. There is about 20 individuals who have posted here, and while the “Anons” and the “anon” may be licensees, the only licensee seems to be Patrick who I have never heard of. The majority of information posted here is 90% BS obviously designed to cause deliberate damage against John Charlton, his family and respective businesses. I did my own independent research on John when I found out he had a previous name and I confronted him and discussed it with him and I was satisfied with the explanation once it was put into perspective.

    I have met his wife and daughters socially. His wife is a lovely lady and has never been involved nor knows very little about JR Bull Sales & Distribution, she was a director of the Newcastle Brewery in the initial stages but had little to do with the day to day operations. His daughters have NEVER been involved in the business until working at the Crafty Bull as bar attendants (where I met them). To state they are his business partners is an outright lie. To attack his family and defame them as you have here is unconscionable and disgraceful.

    Your deliberate attack and the so called expose of ACA caused the bar to close, destroying a valuable part of the business. The bar was owned and managed by John’s wife, on a 70%/30% split with JR Bull Sales and Distribution. This arrangement was to prove the model that had always been part of the business plan. This arrangement was explained to licensees still involved in the business before the bar opened. Hence why I visited the bar. You actions did not just hurt John and his family, it hurt me and other likeminded licensees. It is clear that you people have an agenda and have had no regard for licensees like myself (yes there are others) who had a vested interest in seeing the business succeed and recouping our investment.

    In December 2015, John was declared Bankrupt due to action instigated by Ms Kellie Gibson who has (” No Skin in the Game” as far as I know, and whose sole motivation is getting money from licensees to take action to recover assets that are not there) and debtors petition based on a default judgement by a Licensee Tracey McNeill. Now like other licensees I received an informal proposal that highlight that total creditors are owed between $5-$6 million dollars and a proposal for a scheme of arrangement that saw all creditors receive 100 cents in the dollar. I have discussed the proposal with John and I have seen his business plan and I intend to support it as has some 50% of creditors so far. Regardless of whether the proposal is accepted I’m advised that at a minimum 30% of profits generated will go to trustee to service creditors. So all you other “posters” to this blog. If you are owed money and can PROVE it, contact the Bankruptcy Trustee. The continued attacks against John and any business he may be working for a simply counterproductive. As a creditor and seeing John’s efforts continually damaged by these continued negative comments, I intend to see if there is action I can take against you people for the damages you caused. If there is anyone that wants information regarding John and my dealings with him please send an email to me at licenseejrb@gmail.com with name and contact and I’ll be happy to call you. In case you are wondering why this is posted anonymously.. I have seen the attacks by you people on licensees that have not agreed with your methods

    Hi Jason – there are a number of people who are in the same boat as you. They have purchased a Jacob Marley delivery run & it now looks like a massive scam. We are trying to get as many of us together as possible. If you would like to be part of this group as we attempt to bring this conman to justice and (hopefully) get some of our money back, then please email us at jacobmarleybwsfraudvictims@gmail.com. The more of us involved in getting this guy, the better.
