He lost everything over a bill he never owed.

If you know Khoa, you know he’s not the kind of man to ask for help. He’s humble, hardworking, and deeply devoted to his family. For the past two years, he’s quietly battled through the most devastating chapter of his life.

Through no fault of his own, Khoa lost his business, his investment property, his savings, and nearly his entire livelihood. All because of an electricity bill he should never have received.

He was charged over $31,000 for just 105 days of usage. It was later discovered that two neighbouring businesses were sharing a faulty meter. While Khoa was actively trying to resolve the issue with the energy provider, the company escalated the matter to court — without ever confirming he had received the court notice.

No phone call. No email. Just a registered letter he never saw.

Because he wasn’t there to defend himself, the court issued a default judgment and appointed a liquidator to wind up his business. The very next day, his landlord paid the bill in full, but it was too late. The process had already started, and once liquidation is triggered, even paying the debt doesn’t undo it.

From that moment on, Khoa relied on legal advice that turned out to be poor and incomplete. The result? Years of stress, loss, and financial hardship that still hasn’t ended.

Over $200,000 of his own funds have been lost in legal fees and liquidator costs.

He’s sold one investment property and is now being forced to consider selling the last one , the one he hoped would secure his daughter’s future.

On top of all this, he’s still trying to run his photo and video business, care for his wife and daughter, pay childcare fees, and manage over $53,000 in personal and business tax debt.

-This isn’t a case of a bad director making poor decisions.

-This is a case of a broken system failing a good person.

-A story of how the legal process and bad advice can crush someone who did everything they could to do the right thing.

He’s resisted asking for help for so long. But now, he can’t keep doing it alone.
