I am writing this hoping that some unsuspecting person will not fall for this con artist. His Name is Robert T. Valles Jr. (Aka Bobby) who plays the part of a dying man and requests that you front him money for lukemia treatments or a life saving operation. He claims that he will be able to pay back the money shortly after receiving a large check from a client of his.
He approached everyone he befriended over a 12 month period for money. Some fell for it and some did not. After getting the money from myself and several other people, he moved out of his apt in the middle of the night and defaulted on a co-signed loan that a neighbor of his helped him get for the operation.
I researched him for over a yr & found that not only was he not self employed, he has not paid income taxes in yrs and lied about the disease, I found tons of people who he claimed the same story to - some that fell for it and he took all of their money and some that realzied he was a scammer and are willing to testify - dozens. There is a police report filed under theft by false pretenses.
I am currently contacting the news & Dateline NBC to warn other unsuspecting people - so if anyone has ran into this con man and will be willing to come forward to stop him, please reply. Otherwise, don't fall for his stories, they are all lies - even if you think you know him after a yr or more.
His family lives in Camarillo and are part of his scam & will claim ignorance. He has has moved on to more victims in Ventura County CA.
BEWARE and do not give or lend him any money. Do not hire him for any jobs - he will skip town eventually. I am hoping anyone who reads this will pass this on to the unsuspecting men and women. He will be sent to prison eventually. But he has been hiding and skipping town after town.
