John Amann
Phillips Gallery, Phillips Galleries, Mark Keiser John Amann is a convicted felon currently evading prosecution hiding under the protection of Mark Keiser

Since 1979 John Amann and Phillips Gallery has been stealing from the unsuspecting and trustworthy elite of south Florida. On numerous occasions, Mr. Amann has taken paintings on consignment from some of the wealthiest individuals in Palm Beach, sold them, and kept the money for himself. Most recently, in May of a judge ruled that John Amann and his Phillips Galleries must pay his most recent victim $92,000.00 plus damages totalling well over $300,000.00 for two paintings that were given to him to sell on consignment. Amann neither paid her for the paintings nor returned them to her, despite her asking him to do so several times. Circuit Judge David Crow issued the judgment against Amman.

After the most recent judgment, (and a little bit of digging on the computer will show several) Amann fled the country and hid from prosecution somewhere in the south of France. It was only when Amann tried to sneak back into the United States in order to quickly sign divorce papers that a private investigator hired by another defrauded customer was able to track him. Our legal system is slow, and while Amann may only have a little time before he is arrested or flees for good, it is important that you stay away from him and his Worth Avenue gallery. Amann is dangerous and an excellent confidence man. He has done this many times before and peole have been hurt. Amann is currently operating under a variation of the Phillips Galleries name the judgment is attached to. His current Worth Ave. Gallery is "Phillips Gallery" and he claims to not be the owner.instead, he directs that all inquiries be address to a Mark Kaiser. Mr. Kaiser's telephone number is 917-774-1262. Im sure that once the authorites catch on, both Kaiser and Amann will have a lot of explaining to do.
