SCAMMERS, ripoff, RENEGADE LOCAL with no support for victims of the 277 Rocheste

I've been trying to contact officials about a renegade union fraud tied to the Office and Professional Employees International for months now with no results. I've called, e-mailed, left pages, written letters (certified) and nothing is being done. I am convinced that there is no accountability between locals within this union to conform to standard union practices. There is a local 277 that claims to be part of this union but try to find any information about them.
There are no union stewards or grievance forms or arbitrations. There are no phone numbers or addresses on the fake union cards. The only real part is they take your money. There are no benefits at all. When I asked the boss about the union steward he said we are all union stewards. I want accountability and will be writing congressmen and senators soon. The only ddress I was able to find is in Fort Worth Texas where nothing is done. There is a big MLM pyramid scam running where they claim to be union members who are actually out committing frauds against real union members. Try other searches here for some of their scam companies with no union benefits. Some of the are American Income, National Income, Local 277 AFL-CIO, Torchmark. They give real union members and unions a bad name and I would like to see them taken out of their standing with the AFL-CIO. They have been sued and are under investigation now from the NYS Insurance Department. Why won't the heads of the National AFL-CIO look into these complaints and do something about it.
Can anyone open up their own local do what ever they want and have no accountability from the rest of the AFL-CIO? How much does it cost to start a fake union? Can a union charge what ever they want for dues and give the members nothing in return? They are some real bad apples that will tarnish the name of the AFL-CIO when the stories break that the private investigators and attorneys are working on now.
