 Thank you SO VERY MUCH!!!  After many years of being a police officer prior to my 10 years in RE, I am always watching out for this type of behavior and always looking out for others!

I friggen NEW that would happen @Eddie Pietschmann!  He's told quite a few people "go ahead and sue me, just get in line".  So he's not stopping and he has a SERIOUS gambling addiction.  It won't stop until he's doing federal time.

Looks like we finally snagged him, but he of course post 250K bond immediately.  But he was on a Carnival Cruise ship gambling.  Bank was able to freeze his accounts and hold him off long enough so he didn't jump ship at the last port.  They monitored him until he arrived at Brevard county where he was arrested.

Now we just need more people who have been scammed to share and come forward so they can add more charges and maybe snag him again and this time no bond so he remains in jail until going through trial where I'm sure he'll be sentenced for a long time.  

In the meantime, he might be scrambling to scam way more people in a hurry as I highly doubt he's going to stop what he's doing since they already know about it and he's already told people he's scammed to "get in line behind others suing him and good luck".

Attached is the recent image from his arrest incase it helps others out moving forward.

GREAT NEWS!!  I just had contact yesterday with his bank, their fraud and wire department along with some other contacts.  A closing attorney almost just fell victim to Justin and was able to reach the bank in time recalling the wire before losing his money, which then led the bank to contacting me and now maybe the arrest.

More charges are being filed against him since his bank has stepped in, law enforcement and maybe now the FBI are on it.  We might get lucky within 2 days to finally put a stop to this for other people.

If anyone knows of anyone else that was scammed (not attempted, but legit lost money and have reported it) by Justin, please reach out to me ASAP.  I need to put them in contact with the contact from Justin's bank who is trying to get more info immediately for local authorities and the FBI to see if they can snag him while they know his location.

And here we go, now 2 new properties I've not seen of yet from him.  Also another lender reaching out to me to lend on the deal and they aren't even looking into the deal and thats another way folks will get scammed through a broker. I know these guys, but this still means they aren't checking the docs and simply looking to pass it on for a fee and then someone else will get screwed. 

At the end of the day, the purpose here was to share back 2 additional addresses this Justin Nguyen is now using and sharing in hopes this helps others not get scammed!

BTW if EVERYONE who has ever been contacted by him or through a broker related to him would PLEASE report him to the FED's so that there are more reports on him the sooner they will investigate.  I know about 3-4 people including myself have already done so.

 and the second anyone starts looking into it, the info get's even more obvious of fraud... but Justin or the broker (usually the broker) try's to rush rush rush and that's where lenders make mistakes!  It's not the brokers money, they don't care, then everyone rushes the lender and the mistake or scam is made right then.

 I know he got Duane from Best Transaction Funding for 500k back in December.  Another close friend got all this guys bank statements etc and found hundreds of thousands being wired to casinos right after he received wires.  

I just can't believe he's still out there and the FBI hasn't nabbed him yet!  He's going to screw so many more people over in the meantime and I HOPE more people see this to protect themselves

 THANK GOD you saw my message and I HOPE so many others do before they get robbed.  I can't believe this guy is still out there doing this and he's not in jail yet!!!!

We've definitely seen an uptick in the amount of wholesalers that have been reaching out to us for funding their double closings.  Some are calling just to inquire, but definitely an increased number of wholesalers preparing for the change.

@Kawisara Gatsakos

Just as you stated @Patti Robertson they can simply double close.  We lend to a ton of wholesalers for this reason, then no one can question selling your own house.

I'm sure there will be more investor friendly brokers or those similar to New Western to pop up in states like VA as more states follow suite. We're already seeing it happen and be discussed more and more these days.

100% agreed @Tom Gimer, PROBLEM SOLVED!
