Thanks for the info, Heather, I too signed up and am gathering points for every post (and no junk mail has shown up on my doorstep, and I'm not getting any weird calls either). I just hope that by time we're done with all of this I don't end up earning more from this site than what was due to me from CP. Wouldn't that be a hoot!
Anyway, I'm thinking I may contact one of those investigational reporter guys on the news. There is this man, "Turko" who is on a local San Diego news channel (KUSI) who investigates cases very much like ours. I've seen him expose fraud cases consisting of anything from rip-off cabinet makers (who took the order and the money but never installed the goods), to mail fraud of unsuspecting seniors. He's good too!
I'd love to just call him and give him the scoop on our shameless Mr. Hall. I just know he had this all planned out from the get go (and we alone may be able to prove that). He spent a good amount of time gathering customers (us), taking our money (to pay off our debts... HA!), only to take off with it, leaving us out in the cold with our debts and no money to pay any of them. The man is a menace to society and needs to be brought to justice. I won't rest until I know that this man is behind bars, working hard labor to pay back the State Bar for all the money he stole from us.
Can you tell I'm a little tee'd off? Every time I see a new guest on this site it just breaks my heart. Especially those struggling even harder financially than myself. And especially those who fight for our country only to get paid beans, trying to pay off their debts, only to get ripped off by the unashamed Troy A. Hall!
