The Plot Thickens - ( !!! and a 5,000 Steem reward !!! )
(that's well over $10,000 US at today's coinmarketcap.com valuation)
In Part 1 we learned there apparently exists an ongoing hostile takeover attempt of BitShares Munich IVS. That's 
Tactics employed by person/s perpetrating
this alleged hostile takeover attempt are, to my mind, so insidious that I had to, in all good conscience as friend and admirer of his, come to Ken's aid. Such tactics included cutting off his pay so that he could not pay his rent, feed his family, school his children, or hire legal help to defend his rights. That was most likely intended to force him into quickly turning over his controlling interest and signing a non-compete agreement. They assumed they had him over a barrel - he needed to provide for his family. Heartless !
But then a new low in depravity
preceded last Friday's "Bitshares Mumble" session. This group conference call/meetup/information session is held the hour before each Friday's regular Beyond Bitcoins Mumble show ( @sykochica/how-and-why-to-join-beyond-bitcoin-mumble). The weekly get together is where interested parties discuss everything happening in the BitShares ecosystem. It is a venue where Ken could have presented facts, to very knowledgeable bitshares investors and insiders, that would refute false and misleading claims being made by the entrenched management apparently attempting a hostile takeover of Ken's company.
What happened last Friday?
Ken, wife and children returned to their apartment from an outing in the park Friday morning Munich time. A concerned neighbor sent them a screenshot of an ad from a local Realtor company. This ad said that the apartment that Ken's family was occupying was now up for rent. The apartment was described in the ad as a very desirable space at an extremely reasonable price. Interested parties were instructed to come in person to the apartment. Ken's correct home address was published. But the description and the photos of the apartment in the ad did not at all fit Ken's modest dwelling.
Almost immediately the family began experiencing strangers at the door and people wandering around the apartment complex. Fearing for their children, Ken's wife contacted the real estate company and told them she had not placed such an ad. She said their apartment was most definitely not for rent and all these people needed to stop coming to their door and quiet neighborhood. The company advised her to report the matter to the police.
So,
that's where Ken was last Friday when he could have been and should have been in the Bitshares Mumble session refuting the erroneous allegations made against him and explaining exactly what has been happening in BitShares Munich IVS. He was at the Munich Police station. He was reporting an ad placed by an unknown person/s which was fraudulently using his wife's name to send a stream of strangers to their door.
As Ken's long time friend, having experienced generous hospitality in his home last year,
I Am Pissed!
And I am therefore offering a 5,000 Steem reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction (and/or successful lawsuit) of the perpetrators who placed that fraudulent ad. That is well over $10,000 US at today's market valuation. May I suggest that one pertinent line of inquiry might be to find out how and by whom the payment for the ad was made?
Here's the ad:

Neither Ken nor I are to be directly contacted. All information, to be evaluated for the bounty, must be in replies to this post.
Furthermore, both @chris4210 and @xeroc obfuscate
and refuse to give information as to the identity and background of the mysterious investor "Constantin Garibaldi." For months this "investor" has been interfering in the affairs of BitShares Munich IVS to the great detriment of the smooth running of the company..... His disruptive influence has apparently brought on the impasse BitShares Munich IVS now suffers.
Therefore I am offering
one of the @stan Larimer supported famous new HERO tokens (valued at over 1000 bts or over $150 US each) for every unique new and pertinent piece of information which helps to give a complete picture of Constantin Garibaldi's identity, background, business affiliations, places of residence, employers, nationality etc. Each significant new piece of information, with a link to source(s) for verification, will get a HERO.
And you will be a hero!!!
Please post any pertinent information that you discover in comments to this post to be eligible for these HERO rewards.
Here's what we have surmised about Constantin Garibaldi so far:
- Constantin said that he loves custom bicycles, and this might be his Flickr page:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/126250023@N08/15168484651/ - Ken first met Constantin on the evening of February 27th of this year, with Chris and Rodrigo present, at the Asado Steak restaurant at Pasinger Bahnhofspl. 3, 81241 München, Germany.
http://asado-steak.de/asado-steak-pasing/ - Supposedly, Constantin speaks native Italian. He speaks German with Chris. He spoke English to Rodrigo and Ken.
- Constantin also mentioned that he has/had a VERY (he bragged about it) expensive home in Switzerland.
- Constantin also said that he works very closely with a large law firm of lawyers, and has many large banking friends in Vienna, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, and possibly Ireland.
- Constantin has an email account: constantin(AT)freed.group
- Every Monday at 10am (Munich time?) they (chris4210, xeroc, Constantin and a few others) hold a "jour fixe" in person and via Appear.in.
- Constantin attended the Blockshow Europe 2017 event in Munich.
- A possible website of his??
