By
Managing Real Estate Broker with California Coastal Estates DRE 01329427

<REALTORS(R) BEWARE THAT YOUR CLIENTS ARE NOT USING THIS jack As*!!!>

THE FOUNDER, Bernie Pavone,ICR, based in Lavonia, Mich., is one of the biggest in the growing field of credit repair. ICR has a special computer program that can make everything from bad loans to bankruptcies disappear - if there are technical inaccuracies like a misspelled name or wrong address.



In a commercial for ICR, Pavone says the computer program "searches for erroneous information and forces the credit reporting agencies to correct or remove them. There's not a program on earth like this. It's the only one of its kind."

ICR even offers a 110 percent money-back guarantee.

YEAH RIGHT!!!! THE GUY IS AN EX CONVICT FOR FRAUD AND WAS ON THE PENETENTRY FOR 18-21 MONTHS! NOW, DRIVES A BENTLEY AND LIVING A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR MANSION AND TAKING MONEY FROM NICE FAMILIES LIKE THE HANESES READ BELOW:

(CBS)  Sean Hanes is packing up his American dream and moving on. 48 Hours Investigates Correspondent Peter Van Sant reports.

"I am a hard worker," he says. "I love my family. I take pride in what I do. I just want to provide for my family."

But he can't afford to live in the southern California town where he and his wife Patti were raising their four kids.

Two years ago, things were different. Sean, a mailman, owned his own home.

But the Haneses were struggling. Years back, they had declared bankruptcy. They were deep in debt. Their credit rating was in ruins.

So the Haneses turned to a credit repair company called ICR Services.

So the Haneses forked over about $500 for the service - nearly all their savings.

Says Sean, "I thought I was doing something right to improve my credit."

Six months passed. "They took my money," says Sean. "They went away. That's it. They ripped me off."

When they tried to get the money back, says Patti, "Every time I would try to talk to somebody, I'd get a different story."

Adds Sean, "They said that we didn't follow the proper steps."

For Sean and his family, he says, "It's been hard. I'm not going to blame everything on ICR, but it was the start of things. You know: $500 - and then bad things happen and then bad things go, it's like a domino effect."

The Haneses had put themselves in a deep financial hole. Unable to afford their house payments, they've decided to move.

I always assume all credit repair offers are bogus. How wrong was I to assume that?

Oh thanks for the heads up. Why do we still fall for this stuff? There needs to be a new class in schools that teaches us about scams and how to spot them.

This man is a good reason to bring back the paddle benches. Where this scum would be restrained and depanted. Afterwards they would lay a strap on his on his bare buttocks in public view. 

He should feel the humiliation of being shamed like his victims. He backside should hurt for weeks like the people he hurt. 

Maybe he would then go and get an honest job. We are too lenient on these folks. He hasn't spent a day in jail for all the fraud he committed. Older people are most vulnerable. How can people live with themselves they stole from someone already down on their luck. 

It is just amazing he is not in prison where he belongs.

What's annoying is that some moron like this is still out in the streets hurting others and taking nice, kind people's hard earned money and some kids who make mistakes hurting themselves, but learn a lesson, but end up getting jail time for making a stupid 19 year old mistake.... THAT'S WHAT GETS ME!!!!! THIS IDIOT BELONGS IS PRISON!!!
