Breck Waters a.K.A. Doug Pittman (which is his real name), but since leaving FL.in 1996, owing several people large sums of money, he owes one lady in FL. $50,000.00 and a man $18,000.00. He has been going by the name of Breck Waters. Both of them had invested in one or another of his businesses, which never materialized. I have also discovered on the Internet that in the state of FL. Several corporations were formed by Doug Pittman in a short period of time and failed. Another Florida web site shows numerous judgements that have never been satisfied. Also on the Internet in the state of Nevada, there are two judgements one under Doug Pittman for approximately $70,000 and one under the name of Breck Waters for approximately $10,000.00.
I have discovered on the Internet, through My Space, that he has now set up a web site called RaceNFans.com to try to get sponsors for NASCAR #53.in my opinion, hold on tight to your wallets, I would think twice before ever investing in anything this man dreams up.in the past he has used investments for his personal use and does not invest it in his business. The man is a crook and has been for many years. As far as I know, this man has never worked a real job.
This man conjures up an idea to make money and then goes around to friends and acquaintances and asks them to invest. I met Breck while he was living in Henderson, NV. Henderson is a suburb of Las Vegas. I actually met him through a bowling league. I had been a friend with him and his wife for approximately two years. Breck then came up with an idea to start a bowling tournament called the Great Las Vegas Challenge Bowling Tournament. He started the first tournament in November and called it Santas Rollout. Then in January he started a new tournament. I do not know how he did it, but he got several of the Station Casinos and the Coast Casinos to support his effort. The casinos announced the bowling to the league bowlers and also put up banners and let Breck pass out flyers for his tournament. The people that bowled in the tournament paid $5 each time to bowl 20 lanes and had to get an 8,9 or 10. If they did not accomplish this they were out, and had to pay another $5.00 to try again. If they did accomplish it, they then qualified for the final tournament in December of where the grand prize was either $50,000 or a brand new Toyota Truck from one of the car dealers in Las Vegas. This year end tournament never to place because Breck left town in September without paying any of the bowlers back. He had left his wife of 34 years for a much younger woman and he had to get out of town, because he was involved in a domestic abuse incident with his wife. As far as I know at this time his wife is homeless and on assistance from the state.
Breck approached me in September of after he knew that I had received some money in a divorce settlement, and asked me for $4,000.00 to invest in the Great Las Vegas Challenge, to be used to purchase business licenses for his tournament and to print flyers etc. He told me at the time that he would return my investment by December. This guy was supposed to be a friend, so I invested the money to help him out. He never purchased any licenses. He did however do the tournament. The middle of December I called him and asked him when he was going to pay me my money back. He said that he did not have it. Well, to make a long story short, after many phone calls he finally ended up paying me back $1800.00 of the $4,000.00 and he paid it back in small increments over the next year. When he and his wife split up he left town and I called several times asking for the rest of the money. I then found out through bowlers that he had also set up a contract with another couple in Las Vegas for $12,500. The other couple and I met and went to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Dept. And filed fraud charges. We have yet to go to the 8th District Court and try to get our money back. It is very costly and time consuming to pursue this.
I received a letter from Breck Waters at the end of stating that the money had been a loan for his daughter and Son in law. He also has tried to make other people believe that his wife had borrowed the money for a craft business that she did not have. Furthermore, his wife never knew about the money, because Breck Waters asked me explicitly to never mention it to his wife, because she would get upset that he had asked me for money.in hindsight this should have been a red flag for me. I thought that he was my friend, but I now realize that he was using my kindness and good heart.
I am tired of the fact that this man took advantage of me and several other investors. I get up every day and work an honest job. I am only trying to warn any investors, not to fall into the same trap that I fell into with this man. He is a good talker. I will give him that. He is also a liar and a cheat.
