When dealing with "private" (aka. unknown) finance firms always do you due diligence before paying any kind of due diligence fees.

Thanks.  It was actually just the first link.  I've updated it so you should have no problem going right to the information without a login.

I think I got an email from this guy or maybe his cousin asking for my bank account number and PIN.  LOL.

Taking the stress out of buying and selling.

What ever happened to working with someone you already know and trust.

In this market, if anyone is advertising a deal that seems to be "too goo to be true", it most likely is.

Thanks for the heads up, especially with all the cases of mortgage fraud in Florida, California and Nevada that we keep reading about. Someone in the State should look into this guy. .

Curious George, I have spoken longest and loudest about MGM International & Saj Habib and have never once even gotten a call from a legitimate attorney.

This group is a con. There is not one single loan recording that relates to their "fund" they impose upon.

I gladly accept any lawsuit they wish to push as I have already been compiling evidence for a civil suit against them. My gut tells me that Saj Habib is not a US Citizen and will only flee to his home country when it all comes tumbling down upon him.

Again, longest and loudest, Saj Habib is nothing more than a con-artist scammer!

Keeping it real - Just another part of the Saj Habib scam. Same rhetoric that is spit out on every negative posting I've put up about this group. Why would you think that a lender that is making money is some form of saint? It's a business, not a charity. Even then, taking money with no performance is nothing more than a scam.

Charlie Beck - "REAL" lenders charge due dilligence fees and every developer I work with knows this well. There are costs incurred with commercial transactions that cannot be incurred by the lenders/brokers. This leaves the airwaves open for scam groups such as MGM/Saj Habib to rip people off. The best avenue of approach is referals. I give a list of 14 past clients and a letter of recommendation from the title officer who handles my closings when requested. Try and request this information from Remmington Financial or MGM/Saj Habib.

It's not hard to pick the fruads out of the bunch. They're the ones that say, "I CAN DO THAT" without any research into the deal.

Do yourself a favor and call any title company in Florida. Ask a title officer to check for ANY loan recordings under "MGM International".

You won't find one!

This is the exact, word for word email that I saw over a year ago when I first called out this scam artist.

Saj, I have 17 "turndown notices" that you sent out to 17 different brokers. There is a mixture of 5 different reasons (word for word reasons) on these turndown notices. You're lucky the FBI has a lot on their plate right now, but you're in-line, trust me.

average joe chicago, please tell us what "turndown" reason you get.

I have a list of 7 different canned turndown letters that Saj puts out. Perhaps yours will be the 8th?
