EDWIN BUNSEE is a pathological liar. He committed FELONY Criminal Fraud with Intent ($5,000+) when he stole $4,000+ from us and embezzled $4,000 from another tenant over the course of several months; this was money the tenant was supposed to be paying to me. Edwin's web of lies and deceit finally came crashing down when his so-called business partner, Jagtar Singh Deol, exposed him for who he really is, a professional con artist!

From the moment Edwin arrived at our home as a guest, we welcomed him with open arms. But, it soon became clear that HIS FREQUENT ALCOHOLIC TENDENCIES were becoming problematic. Over the course of several months, we tried to work with him to turn him clean, and it seemed to be working as he pretended to give up drinking and chain smoking. However, during his time with us, he kept throwing out names of people who he claimed to know and said they would come in one second anytime he needs them. Frequently, the name JAGTAR SINGH of FAIR DEAL REALTY was mentioned as being his business partner, and together in their partnership he claimed they owned 9 homes. I had never met Mr. Singh but did speak to him over the phone a couple of times with Edwin present. Thus, I had no reason to doubt his existence.

 

Over the course of several months, Edwin had asked if he could manage one of my tenants; he would deal with her directly and collect the money I wanted as well as a commission for him. I told him it was fine since he claimed to have experience dealing with tenants. The arrangement started off well enough but soon the tenant stopped paying, or so I was told. Edwin claimed the tenant's husband who worked in the Middle-East had wanted a divorce from her so she was now struggling financially but would get the funds to him soon. Edwin told her she needs to pay a daily penalty to compensate us for the delays, which she supposedly agreed to. Again, I was not in the picture so had no idea what was happening and why the tenant was ignoring me. Well, as it turned out, 7 weeks went by with more and more lies being spun involving Jagtar Singh coming to arrange a marriage with a pretend new husband so she could stay in Canada, and getting help for her to obtain funding from the government, etc. I finally contacted Jagtar Singh directly when he was supposed to stop by to meet with Edwin and asked him what time he was coming as I would like to meet him too, but Jagtar told me he was not coming, and the person I had spoken to in Punjabi that morning claiming he was coming was not him. He also had no dealings with Edwin and told me Edwin could not be trusted. He also told me Edwin asked him to find a new place for this female tenant and her 2 daughters since I had not been treating them well. I was shocked to hear all these lies as I had barely said a word to the tenant and her daughters in the previous 2.5 months! Finally, I spoke to the tenant directly to find out what was going on and why her payments were not being made; to my shock, she showed me proof that her payments were all up to date as she had been paying Edwin directly from her bank account to his. Upon hearing Edwin had been embezzling her money, she became distraught. I told her what Jagtar told me about my not treating her well and she told me Edwin told her I did not like her and wanted her out of my home. Finally, the truth had emerged between us about why she had been avoiding me and why I did not see any money. Edwin had also been fabricating lies about why he could not pay me due to his wire transfers and banking issues he was dealing with.

 

All in all, I'm out over $7,200 as I wrote off the tenant's September and October rent since she was the victim here and had already paid Edwin. My brother was also owed close to $800 which is money he lent Edwin along with money Edwin was supposed to cover as part a trip they had taken together.

 

The big issue is Edwin's out of control drunkenness. When he drinks he becomes a different person; Edwin is a mean drunk, has tantrums where he swears profusely and throws food all over the place.
