Complaint Review: Pete Gottschelk Mid-County Mortgage

Pete Gottschelk contacted my grandmother and grandfather, must have gotten their info off of some sort of military records or even something from social security and promised them an opportunity of a lifetime.  It sounded great.  He would do a reverse mortgage enabling them to have money to last them the rest of their life in exchange for the house when they passed away.  I spokw with my grandparents about it and needless to say in this economy they were having problems paying for their prescriptions (grandma) and g-pa was having a problem keeping up with the daily bills and preparing for christmas.  We thought it was a dream come true when Pete Gottschelk contacted them (promising them the money before christmas)  Well needless to say he was a wolf in sheeps clothing.  Pete talked a good game and a long story short he walked my g-parents through a very extravagant process and ending up taking them for close to $600 in costs and fees.  He never followed through on any promises he openly admits he will not refund the money and because he could not get them qualified it is SIMPLY THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS.  It is sick that someone would PREY ON THE EDERLY AND SOMEONE THAT WAS PREPARED TO DIE FOR OUR COUNTRY to make a quick buck.  Ane he took them for a measly $600 which I had to pay my gparents with the money i had set aside for my childrens christmas presents.  I wish Pete could explain to my kids why there is no christmas this year so their great grandparents didnt have to live without electricity This guy should be shut down immediately.  The first sign of BS should have been the gmail account he doesnt even have his own server.  It is our fault I guess we should have known.  BUT NOW YOU CAN BE AWARE
