I first encountered Sean Peden in Florida for a fund raising event for a local child. He professed to be a big Hollywood producer. After we produced the funds he escaped to Hollywood. I located him for a short period when I was involved with the MGM in Las Vegas when he came to us for a project. In Hollywood he uses his wife Dana Ceres-Peden now Waters to attract the eyes of those who want more than to invest in his projects. When the intended victim realizes the fraud Peden-Cesers-Waters uses electronic media and stalking tactics to harasss and disparage others. He is a dangerous sociopath who has been reported to local, state and federal authorities. Just take a quick look under the various names and discover these are the same people. The photos are conclusive, the info verbatim and their deceit obvious. Use caution.

First off, I had dealings with the man that took money from me only on the phone so I did a search and honestly thought I had the right person when I put the photos up and did a bunch of reports. I also thought this mans wife was in on it to. Come to find out, I was way wrong and I am so sorry for putting the wrong photos up. Since I can't take anything down on ripoffreport I am uploading the actual photo of the one named in this report. I am so sorry for any inconvenience and hope that this does not hurt your reputation. The name is the same, just had the wrong photo of the person and just found out the photo and identity of the REAL A-Hole that took my money. HERE HE IS!

Me & my people had a chance to invest in a film that they were involved with as "executive producers". We received a business plan & the thing that turned us off, was missing information from the Peden's/Waters. In the business plan, it stated that the above mentioned has Universal Pictures secured to distribute the film. Me & my people wanted to see actual documentation proving this & the response that we received was "You need to FIRST provide proof that you have money ready to escrow". That's not how investment into a business works! You have to prove to the potiential investor that they're going to get their money back PLUS interest and these two weren't able to provide that proof. It's not that they didn't want to, it's because they couldn't. If you have a major studio like Universal interested and wanting to distribute your film, PROVE IT, don't just say that you have them on board because that's shady and unprofessional. Me & my people weren't willing to invest with these two on board because we ignored what others were saying about them online and we paid attention to them and everything that they had posted. These two are just shady and act nutty. Recently, they lost all of their credits on IMDB and their websites domains become available to purchase. They were also terminated from the film project that they were involved with, I guess that the exectuive producer realized that they couldn't produce anything.

If you are the victim of a crime

Anyone who has been the victim of internet fraud, or fraud in general, can file a complaint with the FBI at this website address: https://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx
If you're located within the city limits of Los Angeles, LAPD has a unit that deals with scam artist and white collar criminals.
Furthermore, if you gave money to a business and they cut off connection with you, failed to keep their promises, etc., you can file a complaint with the IRS. If a company scammed you, then they're also scamming the government as well, that's how the MOB was taken down especially Al Capone.
The thing about scam artist, is that they spend the money and they don't report it to the IRS, even if you can prove that you invested into their business/product/etc. A scam artist can get away with scamming you, but not the government. Even Wesley Snipes went to prison for tax fraud/tax evasion. Even people in the entertainment industry are required to file their taxes. This includes actors/actresses, models, and film producers.
If you have been scammed by a business, then you can file a complaint against them here: [email protected]
A lawsuit against a scam artist in the entertainment industry would be costly and you wouldn't get your money back, even if you get judgement against them. Furthermore, if a business were to sue you for defamation, just make sure that you have them submit their tax documents that proves that they're running a legit business. If they're unable to prove it, the court won't rule in their favor. The reason for this is because a legit business would be filing their taxes and helps prove that they're in good standing.
FYI, showing a person their ID isn't going to help prove anything, a persong getting a fake ID has been going on for decades which is how minors can get into bars. If you suspect a business of being fraudulent, ask to see their tax returns. A professional and legit business ALWAYS files their taxes. Remember, Al Capone got away with a lot, but it was his tax evasion that took him down.
So if you get scammed by a company, the cops and the FBI may not get into right away or even not at all, but you can bet that the IRS will put forth effort into it. I hope that this info has helped any reader who comes across this report. I do not know the individuals who this report is on, but I just wanted to share my information because slander is also illegal.

Their names are Nick Peden and Nicole Peden. As of July 2016.
I have a copy of their ID. I hired them on a project, they actually did a great job for our company so I highly recommend them and disagree with this ridiculous report filed from a nut. But anyway, thats their real names, the waters thing was a stage name they told me when I hired them because I needed to see their ID.
