Before I moved to Bermuda, I was staying with a fellow named Van Hughes in Charlotte, North Carolina. I was between jobs. I got introduced to Van through a fellow who hired me for a contract in St. Thomas. I spent a number of months with Van helping with some wireless opportunities as well as some voice over ip opportunities.
To help with the cash flow, I was able to land contract work in Bermuda. I spent some
time in Bermuda. That work turned into a full time position. While in Bermuda, I left a
bunch of possessions with Van.
Something happened, and communications got few and far between. I should have picked up
a bunch of my stuff, and packed it off. But silly me, I left it with him for a bit longer.
That bit longer ended with a complete drop in communications with the fellow. Now I
can't find him.
I'm offering a $2500 reward to anyone who can assist with the return of my property.
Partial return of property results in partial reward. For further information, interested
parties can contact me at loststuff@oneunified.net.
Here are things I'd like recovered:
- 1998 Black Dodge Dakota Club Cab 4x4 with Cap, Ontario License ZF6 507, VIN
1B7GG22YXWS688773. I've filed a report with the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department.
- Equipment at Level 3 collocation facility south of airport: 11 1U servers, 1 2U
server, Cisco 3662, 2x24 port Cisco switches (Dan at At-Net.net may help with this)
- Fluke NetTool, Fluke DSP 4000 Tester with Fiber accessories
- Other Cisco gear: 2621, 2611, 6 7960 phones, 2 7940 phones, 2 7912 phones
- A number of tower computers
- Assorted software: CorelDraw, Adobe PhotoPaint, ...
- 2,000,000 shares in ECTA.PK
- Some personal possessions including clothing, books, etc.
Some of the equipment was stored at the old Radio station at the corner of 137 S. Kings
Drive in Charlotte.

NKD. His parents live on/own the golf-course just outside of Selma, Alabama. He has

One person who may know of his whereabouts:
Dan Dunkin:
IP Phone: 704.831.2507
IP Fax: 704.831.2511
Email: dan.dunkin@at-net.net
Also Mike, an accountant, in the building adjacent to 137. South Kings Drive may know how
to contact Van.
I don't have the time to put in a full scale search for this fellow. So I'm willing to
pay someone a finders fee to get my stuff returned.
Thank you to anyone who can help.
