Reliable Home Buyers Complaints About Unsolicited Mail

I’m FED UP with getting Unsolicited Mail from Reliable Home Buyers in Deerfield Beach, FL wanting to buy my home when it’s not for sale. I’m on the Direct Marketing Association’s do not contact list and consider their persistent Unsolicited Mail to be harassment.

This is the address which is on their envelope;

Reliable Home Buyers
550 Fairway Dr #103B
Deerfield Beach, FL 33441
866-392-2177

If I was interested in selling my house (which I’m not) they would be the LAST place I’d consider. IMO, places like ‘Reliable Home Buyers’ are looking for GULLIBLE people who needs quick cash so they can buy houses at below market prices.

I’ve refused their letters with notes on them telling them to leave me alone and called, demanding they take me off their list numerous times, but the letters keep coming. So today (11-15-2023), I filed complaints to the Federal Trade Commission, the Florida Attorney General and contacted attorneys about filing a Class Action lawsuit. Something needs to be done to make them stop harassing people with these unsolicited letters.

Post your complaints in the comments area below and I’ll include them with my complaint to make them leave people alone to the Federal Trade Commission and Florida Attorney General.

 

Hey, I want to buy your house: Homeowners besieged by unsolicited offers

Lots of speculators are jockeying to get in on the hot market. Sometime they call homeowners multiple times a day. It can be an invasive nuisance, or worse.

Homeowners nationwide are being besieged with postcards, letters and phone calls from persistent “house flippers” wanting to make a quick profit from GULLIBLE homeowners.

Per the above article: “Oftentimes, the solicitations offer a free no-obligation written offer,” says Michael Froehlich, an attorney with Community Legal Services in Philadelphia. That might sound harmless enough. But he says predatory outfits do that to get a homeowner to let them in the door.

“These guys get into their house, and they use these high-pressure and deceptive sales tactics to sort of hammer and hammer and hammer the homeowner until the homeowner signs the documents.” He says he has seen elderly or lower-income residents sign away their homes for half of what they’re actually worth.

And sketchy speculators are operating in other cities too. Gabriela Raimander is a homeowner and real estate agent in St. Petersburg, Florida. She recently got a postcard in the mail that looked particularly worrisome.

“THIRD NOTICE,” it reads. “I am hoping that this card catches you in time.” She says it looks designed to scare maybe an elderly person into calling the number back. “For whoever is going to fall for it, I guess.”

Gabriela Raimander got this card in the mail. She crossed out her address and other personal information. She assumes it’s designed to trick perhaps elderly people into responding.  She has also been getting some of those homemade postcards with pictures of her own house on them. “I live on my own,” Raimander says. “That’s just creepy as all get-out. I don’t want to have some stalkers stalking my property or, you know, essentially me. It’s just, blech.”

 

New city law aims to crack down on real estate ‘wholesalers,’ seen as exploiting underinformed property owners

The law, set to go into effect two months after passage, is a response to those who quickly profit in long-disadvantaged neighborhoods, where property values are often worth more than owners realize.

Per the above article; “The city of Philadelphia recently passed a law to crack down on the sketchier practices. It includes a local do-not-call list specifically designed to block cold calls from home buyers”.

A similar law needs to be passed in congress to stop these assholes from harassing homeowners NATIONWIDE.

Microplastics in Bottled Water: Poisoning to a Cellular Level

Featured Video Play Icon

“Microplastics are already in your body. You’ve swallowed them & inhaled them. Carcinogenic plastics are already poisoning you down to a cellular leve”

Per various articles (such as below), recent studies show bottled water containing excessive levels of microplastics – small pieces of plastic debris less than five millimeters in size. According to research conducted by Orb Media, 93% of the 11 bottled water brands sampled, all showed traces of microplastics. The study included companies such as Aquafina and Evian, with Nestle Pure Life having one of the highest levels of contamination. Their research also showed bottled water contained about 50% more microplastics than tap water.

 




Scientists Issue Major Warning About Micro Pollution

 

Bottled Water: The Human Health Consequences of Drinking from Plastic

Next time you reach for the bottle of “pure” water, think twice as popular brands may be selling you water contaminated with microplastics and toxic chemicals from their plastic packaging.

Per the above article; “Most bottled water is sold in plastic #1, also known as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Research shows that PET may be an endocrine disruptor, altering our hormonal systems. Although this type of plastic is BPA free, phthalates in bottles can still seep into your water, especially when exposed to high temperatures or stored for an extended period of time. Some companies, such as Poland Spring, use plastic #7 for their 3-gallon water bottles. This type of plastic contains BPA, which has been banned in countries around the world, including the European Union and China, due to its toxicity. BPA exposure is linked to multiple health effects including fertility issues, altered brain development, cancer, and heart complications”.

Roku Youtube Error: Youtube could not be run because it could not…

 

Our Youtube had been working for years on Roku until about September 14, 2021. Then when we’d try to launch Youtube, we’d get this error; Youtube could not be run because it could not be installed from the network.

We tried these fixes and none of them worked;

1) Network connection reset (Settings/System/Advanced system settings)

2) Change theme to Roku Default (Settings/Theme/Theme packs)

3) Change screensaver to a Roku clock (Settings/Theme/Screensaver)

4) Check for updates (Settings/System/System update/Check now)

Uninstalling Amazon Prime fixed the problem. Hope that works for you!

TN Attorney William Shea Forgety – VERY BAD!!! Don’t Use!

I used this attorney in a civil case at my expense of over $30,000. LOTS of problems with him:

#1. He lied to me regularly about what he did and was doing for my case regarding his legal work.
#2. He billed me (a lot too) for work he never did.
#3. He went to court totally unprepared and more than once also – to include once when he never bothered to show up – actually he never seemed to show up on time and always blamed it on “Nashville traffic.”
#4. It took him literally weeks to answer emails although he worked out of his home – resulting in me never knowing what was going on in the case much less what the other side was doing.

I tried to figure out how the h— he still can have a law license in Tennessee? So I Googled him and guess what? His father is Telford Forgety – a sitting Tennessee judge since 1997. Wish I would have known this in advance before I picked this loser as “counsel” (which I am using very loosely here).

Googling him also shows that his license was even suspended for not paying his dues.

Any idiot can figure out that nobody is going to do anything whatsoever to “Shea” as he goes by – no matter how egregious of any lawyer violation – when his father is a longstanding judge. Avoid this lawyer like the plague and don’t repeat my very expensive mistake!!!

Cox SUCKS for Eliminating Email Services

Cox Announces Cutback of Email Service

Per the above article, “Cox Announces Cutback of Email Service”, effective August 15, 2019.

I think this is an outrage. Cox charges a TON of money for Cable TV and Internet services. Like other ISP’s (Internet Service Provides), they SHOULD offer reliable email service. If they’re incapable of doing this, they should sell the company to another entity which can!

U.S. Army Lawyer Matthew Fitzgerald – Promoted Out Of Corruption!

“A fish rots from the head down” is the saying.  And that surely pertains to the US Army legal system – and their entire corrupt and inbred organization starting with the 3-star general/lawyer running it at the top.

I personally lost over $40,000 when Captain Matthew Fitzgerald threatened me to do something totally against US Army regulations which he was totally aware.  This was solely for his own self-serving and career enhancing reasons as flaunted on his annual rating as his biggest “success.”

First I reported this to his Army lawyer superiors.  What a joke that was!  One of his admittedly personal friends did the faux investigation and found no wrongdoing.  Then I reported him to his licensing state bar and he flagrantly lied about what happened when formally questioned in writing.  His licensing state bar said anyone else would have been disbarred for what he did – but their hands were tied since the US Army lawyers as a federal agency were clearly protecting Fitzgerald.

So I tried to take Fitzgerald to federal court but could not literally even get my foot in the door because of something called the Feres Doctrine which has been around since 1950.  Fitzgerald has been promoted TWICE since this event.

But it gets even worse and this is the real travesty of justice:  Fitzgerald was an Army prosecutor for over four years since this event occurred.  He sent soldiers to the Fort Leavenworth prison for violations LESS than what he is unquestionably guilty.  Lying to the feds is a crime punishable by prison.  Look at what happened with what Robert Mueller has done in 2018 and 2019.  Fitzgerald should not be a lawyer anywhere.  One day he will also draw a military pension.

This is really a public service announcement to put out the word on this person. Previously known as Sharon Anthony. Affectionately known by all in our town as “the starf–ker.” Fraud, lies, and schemes all attempting to damage both men and women drives her daily existence. This is an insecure and desperate woman with history going all of the way back to high school.

Men beware! Her favorite is telling the town that you two are emotionally involved and going to spend the rest of your lives together despite having never once slept together or dated. She spins stories only capable from a very sick mind.

Women beware too! She is also a home wrecker as most of her adult life has been spent sleeping with married men knowing they will never leave their spouse. Woman is really trouble so stay away!

2019 Infiniti QX50 Commercial SUCKS

https://youtu.be/NbLE6Xv9CPU

We hit the MUTE anytime this annoying ad plays.

The “music” the HICK is “singing”, As you travel by The Tallest Man is the most annoying I’ve ever heard.

 

This is what I “see” when I hear that awful music… a drunken, backwoods hillbilly who has no teeth (LOL). IMO, the above photo matches the voice.

HICK “music” doesn’t go with high-end, expensive cars!

Infiniti Motors needs to get a NEW Ad Agency!

We’re not alone in our disdain for this gag-me ad. Here’s more complaints found on the internet about this commercial…

Joseph Mattaino
Where the h___ did they get THIS singer to advertise their product? I remember Simon Cowell on American Idol saying to an auditioner named Keith that he had the worst singing voice in the world, that NOBODY could sing as badly as him. Well Keith met his match. The guy who sings in this commercial beats Keith’s record as the worst singer who EVER walked the earth. NOBODY can sing as badly as this guy. I hardly believe Infinity sold a single SUV because of this ad..
Ray Lepper
I hate this music SO much I can’t begin to describe it. Nasal, droning, the worst of country — for a modern car? I could put a great score behind these visuals. This song is NOT it. I’d pay money for it never to appear on my screen again.
Randall Cunningham
This song for your recent commercial makes absolutely no sense, it’s an absolutely horrible choice. I turn the volume off the moment it comes on. Please remove from Google Ads.
Ladodado Day Davis
This song so sucks. I really wish they would stop playing it every damn commercial break on my IDGO app.
Doris Parlette
I hate this commercial! Worst on television. Noise pollution. Who would want to hear this???
Laura Elise Schwendinger
HATE the music. It sounds like a copy of the “Oh Brother” film music Man of Constant Sorrow (Soggy Bottom Boys) It’s clear this guy is singing with an affectation, and somehow the company is trying to appeal to rural buyers. Feels VERY forced. Yuck!

Absolutely the most horribly sung song ever! The “vocalist” is mocking style singing and the advertisers don’t even know it.

Maybe Infinity is correct in asserting that “Luxury should be lived in”. But if they are after buyers of luxury automobiles, I don’t know how they figure this music will help.

I absolutely HATE that song. It is depressing. It sure doesn’t make you want to go out and buy an Infiniti. I think it would better serve an advertisement for an old Beverly Hillbillies type of vehicle. Surely doesn’t say Infiniti. It also could be used for a tourist ad touring the most depressing poverty stricken area. Very sad.
Marc Pondel
The horrible sound of this guys voice sends shivers of pain down my entire body every time the commercial comes on. The stupidity of the company to employ this commercial with a “fake” country/bluegrass/folk singer makes me steer clear of their cars.
Rick
Disgusting song, the woman and her cuck boyfriend are annoying.
Zhana
Absolutely DREADFUL commercial! The annoyingly self-absorbed characters are unwatchable. And I mute the volume to avoid having to ever again hear quite possibly the WORST song in the history of western civilization. (An ice pick through the ear would cause less pain.) What was Infiniti thinking? I don’t know anyone who has anything good to say about this ad.
Dale
OMG! Every time I hear this commercial come on tv I have to leave the room. Why was this sound track chosen for this commercial? It’s horrible! Such a terrible choice.
Chet
Infiniti marketing folks: Ever hear of a focus group? It’s apparent your commercial and accompanying “mood” music is not well received. In terms of the song, it’s absolutely inaudible, grating to the ear and with lyrics impossible to decipher. If you need a lesson in class and what a winning automobile commercial looks like, pay attention to this Chrysler ad with J. Ralph background music
Millicent
UGH HATE THIS SONG always hit mute asap….
ILikeTennis
Thank you for the opportunity to declare how much I despise this song. It is the most DEPRESSING song on a commercial I’ve ever heard. The Tennis Channel broadcasts this awful, dreary ad a zillion times a day. Kills enjoyment of tennis. Mute button to the rescue.
Baron Harkonnen
This song has to be the worst decision by an advertising agency ever. How could Infiniti approve such “Nails Raking a Blackboard” screeching mess. I wouldn’t buy an Infiniti, afraid I couldn’t get this horror song off my mind. Commercial Disaster!!

VICTORY! As of July 5th 2019, they stopped running this annoying ad!
