Liberty Land Services, Robert Hurlbert
Liberty Land Services Real Estate Scam by Telemarketers

My husband received a an unsolicted phone call (11/19/08) from this company wanting to sell some property in New Mexico. My husband is elderly and didn't understand all that was said and told Mr. Hurlbert to call me on 11/20/08. Mr. Hurlbert called me and said that my husband had agreed to $86,000 as the sale price for the property and that they would handle everything, including back taxes if there were any. They wanted me to give them $1,200 to start the process for their costs. I told him if Liberty Land Services were going to sell the property they could take the $1,200 out of the proceeds of the sale. We don't pay for services up front on unsolicted phone calls. Mr. Hurlbert appeared to be a very fast smooth talker. He said they had to have the money upfront, because they provide the financing for the buyer, and they can not appear on the closing statement showing they are owed funds from the buyer and to the seller. This is illegal. At this point I told them if it was illegal to do this, then it was illegal to take money from the seller upfront. He than began suggesting that I contact the Better Business Bureau they would give the company a good recommendation. Wanted me to have the address and wanted to fax me a confirmation sheet to look over and return with my credit card number so they could start the process. When I said no he said that I could just give him the property for free and he could make the money off it. Tried to intimidate me with his statements.

My husband is 86 years old and I felt this was just another scam artist who had gone thru property records and with this information will prey on the elderly who sometimes don't think the whole process thru. So beware of what they have to say and why they want your hard earned money.
