I think the bigger concern for all involved was the threats made to acquaintances of the girl after they visited the restaurant. Within minutes of the couple finishing their meal they were being emailed by Gabby threatening to deport them (and at the time one was still processing the status of his citizenship). That to me is terrorism and much more important than a dispute over car rental. I personally would never believe someone who "says" they're in the CIA, thus how I put this all together to begin with - but unfortunately for the girl she trusted her roommate and "friend" to the extent of believing "Chris" was caught up in work all the time. When confronted, Gabby had several panic attacks and meltdowns about the girls lack of trust in her. She fell for it, it was silly. But she's still a victim nonetheless. Gabby stating that Chris was her cousin was what made the whole scheme believable. She even had her brother call the girl on occasion posing as "Chris" after feeding him personal info from the text conversations. Bottom line is the girl is sick and she's a criminal. I like Park and 6th a lot, but now anyone who is friends or close to the victimized girl would never be able go there again while Gabby is working. And downtown is an extremely small community. I definitely don't recommend boycotting a restaurant over an issue that wasn't their fault, but at the same time nobody wants a lunatic serving their food and alcohol.

The FBI is a fantastic idea actually. Being that she is claiming to be a CIA agent and making threats of deportation to people I think that could be considered terrorism. There were plans to contact the police once the girls things were removed from the apartment they share. Right now she fears any action will result in her possessions being destroyed.

We even contacted apples HR department asking to have Chris Wagner call us back and were told he doesn't exist.
Then we checked the voter registration website using the info on the ID photo that he posted to "prove he was real" and that person doesn't seem to exist there either. When his name is googled the only information that comes up is links to the sites exposing Gabby. Park and Sixth has been made aware of who they're employing already, but I would take caution if you've ever given this girl any information. "Chris" sent very threatening messages to friends of the girl containing personal information that could only have been obtained from the girls cell phone. When asked how "he" got this info, he told the girl that his CIA connections can hack into her phone at any time and then sent her screen shots of her own text conversations. The situation is very real and Gabby is obviously very ill and a danger.

This is very real. I'll break it down. Gabby and the other waitress who was victimized were roommates. Gabby set her up with her "cousin" Chris Wagner, claimed he worked for the CIA and that is why he always canceled plans. Gabby ran his identity from texting apps, sent photos of a model from Sweden named Kristian Steen and set up a Facebook account under (Gabe Wagner) and an Instagram under (chrswgnr). Gabby and the roommate needed a rental car to move into their apartment, and "Chris" told them he would reimburse the other girls sister for the car as his moving gift to his cousin Gabby and the girl he was supposedly courting. When things never added up and photos didn't match I pointed it out to the victimized girl and we researched it. That's when we found various other women discussing gabby Varga on the internet. She's a scam artist and I hope the restaurant gets rid of her before she strikes again. They lost an employee and a few regulars over it already. I'm glad someone posted this here, the girl who got scammed is a very good friend of mine.

Boca Grande near the Newport PATH has Salsa lessons on Sunday nights. Piel Canela Dance School hosts them, there's no cover and margaritas are $4 during the lessons. I believe they start at 6pm.

She showed up on my porch. Country Village section of Jersey City. we've been feeding her, and she sleeps in the bush outside. She's REALLY skinny but otherwise doesn't appear unhealthy. She showed up wearing a blue flea collar. She's super friendly and affectionate, and if no one claims her I am going to keep her.
If she's yours, pm me. But expect a lecture about keeping your pets fed. Or, if you'd like to adopt a kitty- pm me. I have 2 already. no need to be selfish. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b132/bg13/kitty.jpg ^picture.

I'm sure he did report it. I spoke to him to the extent of "Someone held a gun to my back and took my ipod. I'm home now. Cry. Cry. Why Me, I have to go." All I said was maybe he didn't because he was scared. And sorry, not every youth in JC is "stoned and drunk" all the time. So, I'm sure this wasn't the reason he didn't call police- IF he even didn't. I still don't know. and okay you're correct, so add this to your stats: +1 Wanna be gangster in jersey city with a Gun.

P.S, If the police went out to look for every guy with a gun in JERSEY CITY - I'm sure they'd have no time to be lingering around my shows waiting to find a drunk kid and an excuse to shut it down.
I highly doubt calling and saying "Hey! there WAS a guy with a gun- but he's gone now" Is really going to do anything.

Thank you for letting me know that I'm an idiot for saying I don't know what someone did or did not do after them calling me saying a few things, hanging up and not calling back. Note where i said IDK multiple times in the post- because I don't know.

Yeah. He could have just been really shaken up and ran home. He called me about 30 mins after it happened and he was blocks away from the area. At that point what is there to do. File a report, sure, but he didn't see the guys face so I doubt he thought about it. Idk.

So a friend of mine was just robbed at gunpoint about an hour ago on Vroom street, close to the dead end side. Near house numbers 10-
If anyone lives in that area be careful. I was not informed as to whether or not he called police.

I took a walk around downtown today hoping to find some help wanted signs, and I had no luck.
I had a great job in Old Bridge but I moved back here full time again last week, and seeing as how Janam is not going to poof back into existence, I'm forced to lurk craigslist.com and submit applications at the mall. Any love for a college student with lots of food service/retail/customer service experience?

not us per say, the younger kids. I don't know many 14-15 year olds with parents that allow them to go into the city to see bands play. I guess they're less privileged than I was, but regardless, I'd like to have opportunities open for them too. Basement shows are great, but I'm not looking for shows for the sake of shows.. I started my scene on basement and backyard shows, tea houses, coffee shops..etc. It's gotten way bigger than that. And I've contacted every VFW and hall imaginable- waiting for call backs. and p.s, if you don't care, why are you helping? =]

yeah, i realized how it may have sounded after people were already replying. trying to do all of these things on my own is somewhat frustrating at times, and i am under a lot of pressure. (not really)
The great Dancing Tony told me himself "when we're all gone, you'll be the one running this scene." ha. I can only hope so.

Don't expect much. But let me try and help. While not a lifer, I did go to high school in Jersey City. Back then, when we were all underage, there were very few options for shows. They mainly consisted of basement shows (usually in the heights where basements and some cool parents existed), or venturing into the burbs for other basement shows or VFW Hall shows. You aren't going to get any love from bars in town. Underage means one thing- no liquor sales. If you are into hardcore, and want all ages shows, you may have to venture into NYC. Look into ABC NO RIO. All ages hardcore matinees every Saturday. They have been doing it since the late 80's early 90's. Have you tried Maxwells? You may be able to pull off an afternoon show there if you can show that the bands will draw. I realize I am pointing out places out of Jersey City, and your concern is the lack of options you have in Jersey City. but, it is what it is. I hope some of this helps. Keep your chin up.

Alanwright, I am not looking for some type of war versus my city. I am looking for show venues, clear and simple. I posted my initial thread after reading about 20+ rejection emails from venues i had contacted, all stating that there was no place for such an event amidst the events they were planning- thus the hostility towards much of downtown and the people involved.
and yes, i do believe that many of the bands i work with know their history, because unlike the misinformed children you are taking us for, we are well aware of things around us and what got us where we are today. to clear up my original post completely, I would just like to see jersey city becomjing more involved in the all ages scene, and taking it for what it can become- not just looking at it for what it may have been. there are many great artists here who happen to have a following of non drinkers, and my anger is not with jersey city itself, but with the fact that 90% of the venues here are bars or do not have the means to handle every crowd and ever genre. I am simply trying to spread the know that there ARE young adults trying to make good in the scene. not all of us are partying and sucking up tax payers dollars on wasted educations out here, and that is moreso what i am going for. I love JC. I am proud to have been born and raised here and i do not shun those who were not. I welcome the change and i see the benefits of everything and everyone that has come to build JC into what is is today all i am asking for is the citys trust that teenage kids are in fact capable of doing something right.
