I witnessed in person the illegal solicitation of $80,000 which was never returned.
The instigator was an Orange County real estate agent, Jim Thorne. His business partner was Patrick Chapman. Both gentlemen were at my family's house, as was I. These two men solicited money for a 'high-return investment' in real estate. The company and individual behind what turned out to be fraud was Sylvester Financial in San Diego. Kathryn Sylvester was an individual at that company who ultimately was the agent of fraudulent financial products. 2 months after soliciting money from members of my family, they claimed that the money, along with Kathryn Sylvester, had vanished. Because members of my family were reluctant to aggressively pursue these operatives, I took it upon myself to write letters to the California State Attorney General, The California Real Estate Commission, and the FBI Office Mortgage Fraud in
San Diego. I also wrote to NBC and CBS. I was contacted by a representative of the FBI Office of Mortage Fraud in February of this year. Subsequently, there has been no contact or information. I believe that Kathryn Sylvester has left the country.
