What you are about to read is from an "ex-employee" of Taylor, Bean & Whitaker Mortgage..This former employee held a "high position" but claims he was "fired because he tried to do customers right" and believes that is why Mr. Farkas/Founder/Chairman of TBW "fired" him..I as well as hundreds, possibly thousands of "clients" of TBW don't doubt what this persons claims are, due to the fact TBW has committed illegal fraud actions against clients, including "mortgage fraud"..
With "us" my husband and I, our case was/is a conspiracy of "mortgage fraud" starting with Great Commission Realty/Bud Jones Realty/Gilbert "Bud" Jones..Oakstar Bank/Lisa Schupbach & Julie Barker..Their appraiser, Mary Kym Craft a.k.a. Kym M. Craft..Also "fraud manager" Craig Robeson Weitzel for TBW..Taylor, Bean & Whitaker hired an appraiser, Cynthia Speckman to falsify her appraisal report..All the names/companies above falsified listing, lending, and appraisal documents and got caught..
"ALL WERE PROVEN BEYOND A DOUBT WERE INVOLVED IN A CONSPIRACY OF MORTGAGE FRAUD..THE PROOF, TRUTH AND GOD VALIDATE THAT A FACT!!".."NOW JUST TO HOLD THESE SNAKES THAT HIDE UNDER BIG ROCKS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ILLEGAL, IRRESPONSIBLE ACTIONS!!!!!".."THEIR JUDGEMENT DAY WILL COME..HIT THEM RIGHT IN THE WALLET AND WATCH THESE YELLOW BELLY, LIEING, SPINELESS, THIEVING COWARDS CRY!!".."THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR SUPERCEDES THE TRUTH, HONESTY, DIGNITY, AND INTREGITY ABOVE ANYTHING AND ANYONE WITH THEM!!"..
_______________________________
"Companies like TBW, CITI, Indymac, Lehman and others knew exactly what they were doing. Farkas and Bowman and all of the other management are rolling in the millions of dollars their companies make praying on regular people like us. Then, when we try to make it right, they simply turn things over to their high priced attorneys that we can't compete with. I really feel for you. When I was at TBW, I actually fixed several "bad" deals and made alot of people happy. I guess that's why Farkas decided to fire me".

Here is how the FBI describes "mortgage fraud" which is exactly what Taylor, Bean & Whitaker/Craig Robeson Weitzel as well as the other companies/names mentioned above committed..
MORTGAGE FRAUD INDICATORS
Inflated Appraisals
Exclusive use of one appraiser
COMMON MORTGAGE FRAUD SCHEMES
Property is purchased, falsely appraised at a higher value.
What makes property illegal is that the appraisal information is fraudulent. The schemes typically involve one or more of the following: fraudulent appraisals, doctored loan documentation, inflating buyer income, etc. Kickbacks to buyers, investors, property/loan brokers, appraisers, title company employees are common in this scheme. A home worth $20,000 may be appraised for $80,000 or higher in this type of scheme.
Inflated Appraisals. The report inaccurately states an inflated property value.

TBW Con artist
AUTHOR: Tim - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, August 08, 2010
Our Loan was bought out by TBW two weeks after we purchased our home. TBW and A-1 Homes of Natchitoches must have all been in on this fraud. After TBW went down Bank of America got our Loan . BOA sent all copies of the paperwork some of which we had NEVER seen . Pictures of property that was suppose to be ours , showing a black top street in front of cleared land , site ready. Our land was in the middle of nowhere and pure dirt road for four miles. Trees on the land for as far as you could see. In the loan was 15,000.00 dollars worth of wood decks we dont even have. Three different amounts that we were charged for the house , Watch out nothing but CROOKS work out in this business !!!

I do not dispute your claim against TB&W. Recent events have revealed that the owners and officers have been comitting Fraud.
But, please, do not copy and paste every name you've been in contact with to your complaint list.
I worked with Craig Weitzel and he's an outstanding person. He, in no way, had anything to do with any fraud comitted against you. Craig is a fraud prevention and investigation professional. If anything he attempted to help you. I know that you can not provide ANY evidence that he was in any way involved in fraud. I would ask that you amend your comments and clear Craig from any wrong doing. What you have stated about him is WRONG. And unless you can provide proof of his involment I'd suggest you correct your childlike rants against him.
I feel for you that you had problems but trying to ruin the reputation of a man who did nothing but attempt to help you is just criminal.
#1 UPDATE Employee
You forgot...
AUTHOR: 'non - (U.S.A.)

I have to rebut your claim because you forgot Jorge Ruano. Jorge has been instrumental in the past ten or so years for conducting the fraud against not only the consumer, but also against Freddie Mac and the federal government. I can't decide if I want to stick around long enough to watch him walk out in chains and smirk when he looks in my direction, or cut my losses and leave. Taylor Bean's days are numbered though - take it from someone who knows the data intimately from an IT perspective and knows that they are not only in complete violation of regulation; they are willing to support cronyism in favor of doing the simple things required to make things right. The three (Lee, Ray and Jorge) are too dumb to realize that there is more money to be made by doing things right and legally.
Allow me to simplify: if you are an employer and you hire Jorge Ruano in the slight case that he doesn't get a federal prison term, you are a stupid, stupid person. You deserve what you get for your action and I feel no mercy for the results that hurt your professional credibility if take such action.
