Why We Believe Collin McLelland Is Defrauding Investors And Clients

Collin McLelland, CEO of Digital Wildcatters who claims to have raised money from a publicly-traded company, has threatened numerous people with bodily harm and has called them horrible curse words (reply and we'll send you examples), but his downfall will be misrepresenting himself to investors and clients.

Imagine going into Home Depot to buy a 12’ long 4×4 and being sold an 8’ long piece of wood. Now imagine going back to return that piece of wood and being told that no, you’re wrong and your tape measure is wrong and your framer is wrong - it’s really 12’ even when your eyes and tools say it’s 8’.

That’s what Collin McLelland is doing to raise money and make sales for his company Digitalwildcatters and its products, including collide.

It’s wrong because soliciting sales or investments based on misrepresentations, meaning plain lies, is illegal. Let me say this again: if you tell your customers and/or investors that you have sales, users or customers that are not true, you are committing fraud.

Collin McLelland is going around telling people that collide has 5000 users and the ads during his podcasts say he has thousands of users and he does not.

Read to the end of this short email to learn why this really matters.

The truth is that collide has less than 300 people registered on the app, which appears to be 9 years old. In the past 30 days, less than 20 people made less than 50 posts on Collide.io. Most of these people either work for DW, have invested in DW or host DW podcasts.

Now instead of showing evidence that the collide product has thousands of active users, Collin threatens to fight the person behind the account who said he has 20 times less users than he claims.

This is why all of this is important:

Because they are trying to swindle more investors out of more money.

In the weeks to come we’ll try to get to the bottom of where the millions of dollars Collin McLelland claims to have raised have went. It does not appear that any of his products are being used or are even built out. His podcasts don’t have views or many listeners. All we see is wrappers and white labels and millions of dollars down the drain.
