This post is not without merit. It appears this writer paid for a membership in order to engage themselves with the firm. If the project presented wasn't something they were interested in perhaps they could have either returned a few calls, or refund the membership fee.
IndieVest, Inc. began with investors contributing millions of dollars in an "innovative" new business model concerning the procurement of viable screenplays and other film projects, raising capital for financing of each, providing professional film production, marketing and distribution
It's track record is dismal. The firm is near liquidation, it's first film project grossed less than $130,000 in box office theatres and the second is, after nearly 3 years, a project that most could view as "in limbo" at best.
For more information you can always look to other reports here at ripoff.com about IndieVest.

Unfortunately, the potential benefit of a site like this is outweighed by the abuses that occur when an individual is given a non-recourse soap box to dafame another individual (and their employer) with absolutely no checks or balances in place to confirm any of the accuracy of an alleged event. I responded to this false posting more than four months ago- with absolutely no response from the alleged victim. This posting should be taken down in its entirety as this is obviously a personal problem between these two individuals and has absolutely nothing to do with our firm- which has never had any complaint.
