Complaint Review: Eric Williamson Credit Repair - DURHAM North Carolina

After reading the same types of complaints, it makes me mad this guy is still out there preying on others.

Some of you have notified the Durham Police Department, this wont really help because the offense is less than $1000. He'd probably get a slap on the hand and spend a few nights in jail.

TAKE IT A FEW STEPS FURTHER!

It is a FEDERAL OFFENSE what this guy is doing. Here is a link to a similar scenario from the Federal Trade Commission website:

Also, he is conducting business in North Carolina. Notify the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigations. This is the North Carolina Department of Justice. Attorney Roy Coopers office number (919) 716-6000. The website is:

Want something else? If he is conducting business in North Carolina, he needs to report his earnings with the North Carolina Department of Revenue. Give the Tax Fraud department a call 1-800-232-4939,  they  will look into it. Of course I have the link for you!

PLEASE NOTE, user Lords Blessings and CREDIT GURU appear to be the same person. Check out the other reports on Eric and you will see what I mean.

If he has your social, I strongly advise for you to notify your credit bureaus to put you on Fraud Alert. 

Sorry that you and others as what it appears are going through this.  I worked in the mortgage business and came across individuals that offered this service. I would never refer someone that I would not use myself.

As for credit repair, this is a government website that might help and point you in the right direction.

As to Eric Williamson, if he has a business name, you can file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. This probably won't help any but at least it will show up if someone googles for his services.

THIS IS WORTH A SHOT THOUGH! Contact the mortgage company that referred him and ask to speak with the broker in charge and tell them what you ran into. If the mortgage company has not been alert about this, they will keep referring business and allowing their customers to get hurt.

Look to see if the mortgage company you are dealing with is allowed to do business in your state. You can normally find it by contacting the Commissioner of Banks.

If they are not on there, call the C.O.B immediately. They regulate all lenders that can do business in your state, and are VERY sensitive to PREDATORY practices. You might be able to tell them your scenario and the lender you have been working with, they may or may not be able to help, but it is worth a shot. If many people have complained about the mortgage company, they may audit the company or revoke their license.

I hope that the mortgage company you are using is not receiving kickbacks for sending business to Eric Williamson, this is illegal in the business.

ERIC WILLIAMSON, I will notify all my broker friends about you. Not once have you responded about the Durham Police Investigation.

  OK, SO YOU JUST SAID THAT THE GUY OFFERED YOU HIS HOME ADDRESS AND INVITED YOU OVER TO HIS HOUSE SO THAT YOU COULD MEEY HIM IN PERSON AND PAY HIM, AND YOU SAID THAT HE DIDNT NEED YOU TO PROVIDE A COPY OF YOUR CREDIT REPORT? IF HE DOES HIS JOB RIGHT, I WOULD ASSUME THAT HE COULD OBTAIN YOUR REPORT ON HIS OWN. HOW YOU COULD TAKE ANY OF THAT AS A SCAMMER IS BEYOND ME. SOUNDS TO ME LIKE YOU ARE JUST BROKE AND LOOKING FOR ATTENTION. PEOPLE SHOULD REALLY READ THINGS BEFORE THEY POST THEM, IT WOULD AVOID MAKING THEMSELVES FROM LOOKING VERY STUPID. YOU JUST SAID THAT YOU DIDNT HIRE THE MAN, AND YET YOU ARE POSTING NEGATIVE ADS AGAINST HIM? GET A LIFE. I HOPE YOU DONT EXPECT ANYONE TO TAKE YOU SERIOUS AFTER THAT IGNORANT AD YOU JUST POSTED.

I have not only hired this same person for his wonderful service, but i have sent him well over a hundred of my friends and family. Mr Williamson has saved my financial life and tons of people that i have sent to him. Reading these negative ads about him makes me sick to my stomach and i hope these false alligations are not believed by anyone. I will gladly stand up for him and so will hundreds of people that i know for a fact he has helped. People should be ashamed of themselves for posting such UNTRUE LIES about such a good god fearing man. He helps people and its sad to see someone try to smear the name of such a good man.

I just got off the phone with Eric Williamson and I was going to send him a wire for $550 via money gram. It seemed a little strange to me that he didnt need a copy of my credit reports like most credit repair companies and how he only required 50% of the money up front. I asked him for a contract and he said that he would send me an email detailing his services. He also offered me his home address in case I wanted to fly in and pay him in person. I am a single mom of four and I can find better things to do with my money besides being scammed by him. Thank you so much for posting your reports, I'm going the build my credit the correct way.
