One of the tools they use is Craigs list to identify potential people to scam.Immediatley Jared gets his parents who are so called "preachers" to set the scene: How great of a son, integrity etc.etcthe invited us to the church. In my case Jared got me to invest $50000 in a auto repo business. Both Jared and his wife Shannon signed separate and individual promissory notes for this loan. My boyfriend was 50.1% owner of the company.Jared and his wife Shannon put very little effort into the company. They refused to produce bank account statements. After three months phone calls became less and less, the lies became evident. The parents who were so warm and fuzzy in the beginning did nothing.They played totally dumb. I later learnedthat the Parents are well aware of other scams Jared has pulled in the past.Jared even scammed his own grandfather of $15000. Jared and Shannon are still in the area running te repo company which they stole and kept the truck which was an asset of the company.Investigation for me is hindsight but i have tracked down several individuals whom Jared has scammed: even his father-in-law who refused to go to his own daughters wedding. At least two or three others are outside of the family circle. As of dec. 30th he was still running ads looking for an investor to go into the repo business. If anyone reading this has been scammed by him: please fill out a report.
