@Account Closed I have not had any updates or heard anything. Thanks thought she was living at 614 Battistrada…. Is this a different property 


 I believe she had sold that property.    But I've heard so many stories about what she does or doesn't own.   It looks like the only thing she doesn't claim she owned was mobile homes.   Somebody told me that she is "trying" to bring back money from Dubai.  But it could be Dubuque for all we know.


 Does anyone know if the mobile homes we purchased existed?

Has anyone heard from the court-appointed receiver appointed for ORES by

the Comal County Court Judge? On another web site, I learned that there

was to be a meeting with the receiver, Charles Adams, concerning the

progress (or lack of same) on this situation. I received no such notice

and Mr. Adams is aware that I am one of the creditors to this action.

Another notice said that the meeting had been postponed with no date

set.

The residence where Ms. VanGundy has been living, 914 Avery Park, New

Braunfels is no longer on the market. A property search shows that

property under another name since 2013.

My suspicion is that we probably will see little or no money and should

investigate using our losses as tax-write offs (consult your lawyer/tax

advisor). I have a good friend who is one of the top bankruptcy

attorneys in the country (usually corporate). He told me that the only

time in his 30+ years that the scammer paid off is when the crook

unexpectedly died and had a large life insurance policy that was able to

pay off all the creditors.

I believe that perhaps action could be taken against the agents who sold

these "investments." Perhaps they have E&O insurance, but from the

advice I've received, the documents I signed are not normal documents

for such transactions. However, it seems that Ms. VanGundy never

purchased or rehabbed these mobile homes and I question if the agents or

account managers ever did their due diligence and any simple

investigation -- like, "Could I see where you renovate these units?" or

"Could I see where you have installed these units?" or "Could I see some

of the paperwork from your purchasers of these units?"

Of course, fairly we could say neither did we. Or at least I can say it.

Someone had posted this, what do you guys think?

Hopefully we will get a call or email from   Charlie letting us know what’s going on. I’m in the same boat with lawyer, everything is on hold.

Did anyone else email him and get reply today? 

Thanks!
   


I was going to contact him again as he did say he would update and get creditors together. Did he mention anything else? I hope it's all coming together

I heard Chimene's personal bankruptcy has been denied, the receiver Charlie will have a meeting with victims early September, make sure you contacted Charlie and he will notify you about the meeting.


 I have not been able to contact Charlie can you give me contact information.

Thank you John

I also tried many times before Charlie finally replied to my email.  His phone:  (713) 858-1341


Do you know what is going on? I haven't heard of any meeting scheduled.
