Scam Alert
He's baaaaaack! Google "Art Stanley Howe" of Perfect Skateboards. This guy will tell you some sob story and eventually talk you into helping him financially. Took me for all my money and put me into bankruptcy. When you question him on any "red flags" that pop up, he quickly has an believable answer. VERY manipulative! Stay far, far away from this horrible human.
Looks like he is doing just fine:

This is ART HOWE - Let me set the record straight . First of all if anyone has ever given me money or helped me , it was of their own accord . Secondly , no one really knows what happened , there is lots of speculation and rumors and it is all one sided! If anyone out there lives without sin or has never made a mistake , then you can judge me . Just because at one point i was single and on dating sites does not make me a bad person , everyone is on dating sites! So is everyone on there bad?
Lastly - I have nothing to do with my friend company which is listed above , he is my friend and always will be but publicly i am stating - I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT !
if anyone has a problem with me then feel free to contact me or email me and not resort to this highscholl stuff of posting online .
Thank you

This is Art Howe , if anyone has a problem with me then feel free to contact me at anytime - The company Taken is not mine but a friend of mines and yes I help him out as a friend but that’s it . Him and his family don’t deserve any of this and all my stuff is in the past ! I’m not hiding and I’m right here for anyone that has an issue .... This crap is getting old , move on or confront me and stop trying to be internet gangsters ....
Art Howe or whatever your name is, stop trying to convince women that you are this sad story. Just last week you were asking me for money little did you know that I did my research and public records show you are listed under another alias for this so called Taken Co showing you live in Ramona. Please be aware of this man he is married, broke and a liar!! You currently live in Escondido to be exact and you meet women online just like you met me and started to threaten me when I confronted you. So who’s the internet ganster and fraud? Report his scams to your local authorities. You will never see your money and he will sleep with you upon your first meeting using no protection.
Art Howe is a sad story...he’s sad sad man..who preys on vulnerable women..I’m surprised it’s taken this long for this serpent to arise..you have no business, no skateboarding company those all dreams..your a dirty con artist..you won’t change but your colors like a chameleon..BElIeve WhAt Yiu ReaD Girls! Fuckin leach!
There is no ex, no child..(with all this would you let him have your child)those are all part of his scam..this guy isn’t hurting ever..he has moved to next stupid girl/women paying for his shit..
I feel like an idiot, I fell for his BS for over a year, met him on POF & the last time I saw him I believed his story that he needed the $2,000 for "us" and an investment. stupid me gave it to him, and I have not talked or seen him since July 2018.
I let him "Borrow" 2G's and he left me a gift, Im 12 weeks pregnant!!! It's 100% his too Trust me.
Im a single mom who feels so betrayed its sick. His poor wife, he said he was divorced finally, liar dude, straight up!
I feel sorry for him, if he does not feel any remorse that is just not human
I can't believe how all our experiences are the same. What a Loser!!!
So, I'm his most recent victim and I’m usually no fool. His sob story this time was that his “crazy ex-wife” had his accounts frozen because she saw his new Benz, which he does have, and he needed money to get gas so he could pick up his kid and feed him. Of course, being human I wanted him to be able to see his kid and not let the kid go hungry.
Now he has Apple products that I purchased and have the receipts for and won't give them back, stating "I don't have anything that belongs to you." along with phones I purchased and have yet to see the money for that "deal" which I have texts about. He’s stuck me with cell phone contracts that now I must pay. I’ve only gotten $1,000 back in the very beginning to hook me which he probably scammed someone else for. I am going to the authorities and the DA’s office to report everything stolen AND including his roommate/best friend and his roommates GF in on the police report since they were home when I dropped off phones at least twice and handed them to the best friend because Art wasn't home AND they were there when I brought my Apple products in from my car. I made it clear when he said he needed to use the iPad Pro and the Macbook Pro for a “web design and make lots of money from it” that it was part of the business deal and they’re not gifts. He acknowledged that in text but of course his word means nothing.
I could go on and on with all the BS he fed me, but it would be a book. He really missed his calling. He’s very convincing, manipulating, and knows how to get you to spend or give him money. He could’ve been a Lawyer or a Politician! He has no integrity… All he had to do was give me my stuff back and pay me for the phones. Simple.
So I met Art/Ash, whatever name he uses now years and years ago via POF. I recognized him because he dated a girl I knew briefly prior. First of all, he truly is pathetic. He convinced me to meet up with him after flirting for awhile. So I met up at his house.....let’s just say his small dick made me lol in his face and I left immediately. He would blow me up saying “he missed me” blah blah blah. Months go by, saw him on Bumble. He’s everywhere. Decided to fuck with him since he missed me sooooo much. I met up with him outside his work to chat on his break, by chat I mean he molested me and I left again. He never asked me for money and as if I would ever give him a dime like some of you. I’ll give him credit he can be a convincing guy, but come on ladies, be smarter than this guy hahaha
So.... Is this the same Howe who used to skate and have pretty solid skate clips online? If so, I remember hearing stories about how he turned to heroin at a young age, stealing from his parents as well in order to fund his drug addiction. I don't think it's a coincidence this guy came up when I searched "Howe, San Diego skating" online. Especially since he has a DrewsDays2 video on youtube.
What a human being with a terrible heart to be honest. I can't believe he's even trying to explain himself out of it.
These women did not give you money on their own accord. You obviously falsified information and defrauded them out of their money, by promising to pay back their loans. I hope karma works out for this guy but yea also a tale that preaches caution to all on dating apps I guess.
