Complaint Review: Shawn G Brennan DBA VERITAS LLC

As I write this report, I am the FIFTH unfortunate person to be scammed by SHAWN G BRENNAN.  I have the same story as the other report - Shawn came recommended to me as a person who could negotiate a loan modification with my lender.  I had just lost my job due to the recesssion and was in a vulnerable position.  In early December, 2008, Shawn came into our home, we signed his contract and he took $5000 of our RETIREMENT MONEY. 

Over the course of the next couple of months I repeatedly requested proof of his work on our behalf - he never produced any, just creative excuses and delays.  Eventually we discovered he had NEVER sent anything to our lender.  Then he stopped returning our calls and emails.

The Simi Valley police detectives determined, at that time, that they could not prove INTENT to committ fraud... but I doubt they are aware of the number of victims there are out there now.  Besides the 4 others on this Ripp Ooff Report website, there are at least two other parties I have been in contact with who were also scammed by Shawn / Veritas to the tune of $15,000 (loan modifications on multiple properties).

On October 2, 2009 I won a judgement in Simi Valley small claims court against Shawn.  I have filed a complaint against his DRE license and I intend to lien his property and dock his wages with my judgement... that is before he files bankruptcy in an attampt to thwart the mounting avalanche of claims against him.

It would be a felony to make a threat against this individual, but if I were in his shoes, I would watch my back.
