Flavor Flav's former business partner has filed a police report against the rapper ... claiming Flav cut him out of a MAJOR fried chicken deal and swindled him out of a $30,000 check ... TMZ has learned. 
The man who filed the report is Tommy Karas -- who claims he wrangled up investors for Flav's Las Vegas fried chicken project back in April and was supposed to handle the money for the deal.
According to the report, Flav went behind Tommy's back -- telling the investors HE was the money man ... and even getting them to send him a $30,000 investment ... cutting Tommy out of the deal altogether.
Tommy filed a report with the Las Vegas Metro PD -- but law enforcement sources tell us ... "The allegations did not meet the elements of a crime" -- and cops will not pursue the case because, "It's a civil matter."
We're told Karas is meeting with attorneys to weigh his legal options. Calls to Flav's people have not been returned.

First rule of business... Never give out the names of your connects
NICE CLOCK YOU GOT THERE! WHERE DID YOU GET IT FROM, OSAMA BIN LADEN? MICHAEL SALVAGE RULES, LOL.
He could not be reached for comment because he was too busy signing autographs at DFW airport yesterday. While waiting to board a flight to Tulsa, a swarm surrounded him and he was taking pics and signing autographs while the true celebrities (the soldiers heading back for deployment) walked by without even a handshake from anyone. Pathetic.
why did Flavor Flav want to start something that he knows he can't finish? Business FAIL! Reality TV Show FAIL! Why hasnt he learned! Poor man o_O
Flav doesnt need more free publicity!!!! What a s***bag piece of a shi*, to think he had a reality show at one point and that chicks gathered to be on it ( for tv purposes I know!) but stil....the sight of him makes me nautious. Less ppl like him would make this world a better place. Someone needs to punch out the remaining teeth left in his mouth so that I never have to see his teeth again. Disgusting, dirty bastard.
you ain't gonna get ahold of nobody like Flav this early in the day. Pahlease. He's still sleep.
And...you went into business with a guy who wears a dime store wall clock on a chain and looks like a skeleton wrapped in electrical tape...why??
what a guy dont know why anybody whould even want a pic with a creep like that
Tommy Karas is the biggest Scam artist in Vegas! He use to own screwballs and that shut down because he did not pay his taxes.
Ya that Tommy Karas is no good!! He scammed people a few years ago at Pure Night Club. He has a very bad reputation in Las Vegas. I am surprised he was not be run out of town yet. I use to go to screwballs also. Tommy Karas is a joke...LOL
Tommy Karas will do anything for a dollar. I would put my life on the line and say that Flavor Flav was set up by this guy. I use to know that guy back in Chicago when he ran XL. He was run out of Chicago because he pissed off the wrong people. Looks like he is doing the same in Las Vegas. I hope that place opens up in Vegas!! FLAVOR FLAVVVV!!!
