Miller canceled Lauscher\u2019s hunts four years in a row\u2014sometimes just days before departure\u2014and never refunded him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The complaint names dozens of other clients who suffered similar treatment, including Robert Clayburgh, Eric Fox, and Richard Jordan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-unsafe-and-misleading-practices\">Unsafe and Misleading Practices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The lawsuit alleges Miller misled clients about success rates, advertising a \u201c100% trophy rate\u201d despite state records showing no successful moose kills since 2021. Regulators say such claims violate Alaska\u2019s ethical standards for guides, which prohibit guarantees of <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-healthy-hunting\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-alaska-sues-hunting-outfitter-over-alleged-660k-scam\" title=\"Alaska Sues Hunting Outfitter Over Alleged $660K Scam\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"113\">hunting success<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even when clients reached the field, conditions often made hunting impossible. In 2023, Miller sent eight hunters into the backcountry with insufficient fuel and too few guides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-leica-geovid-pro-10x42-vs-sig-kilo10k-gen-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-alaska-sues-hunting-outfitter-over-alleged-660k-scam\" title=\"Alaska Sues Hunting Outfitter Over Alleged $660K Scam\">Leica Geovid Pro 10\u00d742 AB+ vs. SIG Kilo10K-ABS HD Gen 2<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Four abandoned the trip early, fearing for their safety. The two who stayed faced 400-mile round trips by boat just to reach <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-safe-act-5300-acres-legal-hunting-ground\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-alaska-sues-hunting-outfitter-over-alleged-660k-scam\" title=\"Alaska Sues Hunting Outfitter Over Alleged $660K Scam\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"112\">legal hunting grounds<\/a>. None harvested a moose, per the lawsuit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next year, Miller dispatched three hunters without a licensed guide. They spent 22 hours traveling upriver before realizing they lacked enough fuel to reach the hunting area or return safely. The group left gear and a boat behind, and none received refunds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-legal-demands\">Legal Demands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Attorney General\u2019s Office charges Miller with violating the<a href=\"https:\/\/law.justia.com\/codes\/alaska\/title-45\/chapter-50\/article-3\/section-45-50-471\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-alaska-sues-hunting-outfitter-over-alleged-660k-scam\" title=\"Alaska Sues Hunting Outfitter Over Alleged $660K Scam\"> Alaska Unfair Trade Practices Act<\/a>. The state seeks an injunction barring him from continuing operations, restitution for affected hunters, and civil penalties of up to $25,000 per violation. The complaint also demands attorney\u2019s fees and full investigative costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Officials noted that Miller has already taken deposits from at least five clients for the 2025 season, collecting $54,000 despite the ongoing allegations. The lawsuit argues his continued bookings pose an immediate risk to new customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The case will proceed in the Superior Court for the Third Judicial District at Palmer. If the court agrees with the state\u2019s allegations, Miller could face massive financial penalties and a permanent ban from Alaska\u2019s guiding industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This story is developing.
