Warning to investors who are seeking funding

[Carmelo Alba]

This is just a warning for those investor who are seeking  funding.  If a certain Michael Ghadis ( or Wahl Bradley, Concorde  Finance and Investment Inc) connects with you, offereing to help you with funding, please avoid them. They are scammers.

@Carmelo Alba Thank you for posting that Michael Ghadis and Wahl Bradley from Concorde Finance are scammers. This is very very valuable information for BP nation. We simply do not have enough posts like this.

However, @Edward B. is right. Without actually providing evidence you are smearing someone. I know it is always a long story but if you posted this to help others which again is so important that you do that, you must share your long story.

Personally, I am truly disappointed in BP as a site becoming the "motherload" of a site where scammers can pick off unsuspecting investors. And I am just as disappointed in BP posters (whom I admire greatly) like @Jay Hinrichs and others who know this very well but are not really doing much about it. I am including myself in this group.

We spend a great deal of time posting and reading about success stories. But we spend very little time with posts and discussions about all the failures and truly spend very little time talking about those on our site that take advantage of others. Why do we not do as a good of a job policing ourselves as we do teaching others how to do real estate investing correctly? We are an unregulated industry, and if we do not regulate ourselves the government will. 

We are pretty good about helping a newbie get started. But we are very hush hush about it when one BP member harms another even if it is done fraudulently. We should be very transparent about this so that we can keep such people out of our Community. We should use the power of social media that BP is to protect ourselves. But we should also be very very careful about sticking to the facts and not make things personal. 

We should really have a Forum Category titled "Scams on BP." And if you happen to have someone post that you have hurt them you should be given the opportunity to correct the situation to protect your reputation. It should go both ways.
