I worked for Brian K. Davis for two weeks.

 

Davis's company was dissolved by the state two years ago. He still lies to clients and claims to be incorporated.

Davis bills out $150 an hour for divorce investigations. What his clients do not know is that the workflow relies 100% on new hirees with no credentials, training or other qualifications. Investigations are performed by people hired from craigslist for a net wage of $6 an hour or less. He offers $10 gross pay, but the applicant must pay for their own vehicle expenses. Recording video from a vehicle is most of his business. He openly admits applicants will have to drive all over the state.

He lies on craigslist that he is seeking "trainees". the fact is that without 10+ years in  law enforcement the state of MA will not issue anyone a license. The only  way to be a trainee is to get hired as a police officer, and you must make the rank of sargeant.. These employees will never be licensed.

You pay Davis big money, and a poor naiive fraud victim with zero training or experience performs surveillance for him for less than minimum wage.

He claims to have half a dozen non-existent offices. He has ONE.

His website is a huge fraud. The company he adverties no longer exists, and he  spews boastful stories about his credentials. 

He isn't going to do your investigation, so his credentials don't matter!

He also tells applicants they will make more money in the future. But that's obviously a lie because he's been advertising on craigslist  every single week for 4++ years. He simply fires employees after 60 days.

He refuses to provide a PI license to applicants or even his name. Craigslist users routinely remove his ads by flagging and he has a mob of disgruntled rip-off victims spamming the board with warnings.

I took the job to see where it would go, and left  when he was proven to be extremely dishonest and sketchy.

I since read state regulations and discovered that NONE of his employees were "trainees" ; we will never be licensed as a result of this job and would have to seek police work for 10+ years to get a license.

The text of his fraudulent ads will be posted here soon.

fake legal notice de-bunked

AUTHOR: Barry Brown - (USA)

POSTED: Wednesday, August 19, 2015

howard davidson of arlington claims to have taken legal action. apparently no judge has agreed with his lies because he is unable to subpoena any identifying information and knows posters only as "john doe".

in contrast, one user provided details from oDesk which prove his claims.  that person  is not lying

also i contacted the law firm several times. they do not respond.

howard davidson is a resident of massachusetts claiming to be suing residents of massachusetts. the ohio court he mentions has no jurisdiction.

 

de-bunked.

David Wu, AI Squared, Sitecues of VT, Howard Davidson of Arlington MA

AUTHOR: Jimmy McPhillips - ()

POSTED: Monday, August 11, 2014

David Wu did not return communications from a citizen whistle blower for more than a year. Finally this month his office extension forwarded to his cell and he picked up. He attempted to question the motives of the whistle blower and refused to view the mountain of evidence.
Howard Davidson clearly views each employee job or independent contract as a criminal enterprise. From stealing personal data to financial fraud to unwanted sexual advances to males 30 years younger than he is, Davidson has been on a rampage of workplace misconduct for years and has burned through many jobs.
David Wu was offered screen saves of posts, emails, SMS text via VOIP, etc going back several years.
David Wu couldn't care less about the safety ,privacy, or well being of his employees or the reputation of AI Squared and Sitecues.

 

To follow: More evidence, that David Wu refuses to see.
