New York, USA
Gang Wayz today issued a statement addressing an alleged attempt to pressure the company through threats and reputational attacks. The company emphasizes that it has refused to make any payments and remains focused on product development, customer service, and market expansion.
According to Gang Wayz, certain individuals allegedly demanded money while threatening to release videos and other content that the company asserts contains false or misleading information. The company maintains that it has retained evidence related to these communications.
UHMWPE is the material Gang Wayz uses. This product is known to be 40x stronger than steel by weight.
“Our focus remains on building better products and serving our customers. We will not allow threats to dictate how we operate,” said Raphael Ranger, CEO of Gang Wayz. “If you reward extortion once, it doesn’t end there. Intimidation only works if it is allowed to work.”
Gang Wayz continues to expand its presence in the market for bulletproof bags, ballistic sling bags, and protective everyday-carry products. The company emphasizes that the alleged dispute has not affected its long-term plans, and it remains committed to innovation and customer service.
The company distinguishes between legitimate criticism and attempts to solicit money through threats of reputational harm. Gang Wayz states that it will continue to operate normally while refusing to comply with extortion or intimidation.
