Bank of the West using faked documents and without my fingerprint to make a loan with my house Las Vegas, Nevada

People of interest:

In November of 2008 Ping Cheung (then ex-wife of John Chao, divorce documents stamped by court on October 13th, 2007) preceded to re finance the home without the consent or knowledge of John Chao. She arranged for all documentation to processed and notarized without John ever being present. All documentation was fraudulently signed and notarized making all documents presented to the bank, in order to attain the loan false, as well as she had no legal ties with John at that time. The bank funded the loan. The original mortgage was paid off to original lender and the cash difference was retained by Ping Cheung.

Bank of the West issued a note for $344,000.00. Original amount owed to the Countrywide was: $132.000.00 Approximately on date of payment.

All documentation for the loan is under both parties name. All of his legal identifications are listed under John Chao, including US Passport (number ) copy attached and Nevada Drivers License (number ) copy attached.

The notarized signature on loan docs names Nan Ping Zhao as the signer, which would be impossible since John Chao has no legal Identification to show that name, especially in 2008, when all documentation was signed.

Upon making an attempt to re finance his home; John found out that he could not since the original bank was no longer holding debt for the property. That is when he began to investigate the crime committed against him. He first reported to: Clayton Manning, investigator for Bank of the West in January of 2009.

Clayton Manning has been investigating this for over two years and felt there was enough evidence to alert the Secret Service on the case. He was able to get video of a woman (first thought to be Ping Cheung) making the first three mortgage payment in a bank in California. He presented photos extracted from the video to John Chao in order to make a positive ID of the woman. John was not able to confirm that the woman on the picture was his ex-wife. There were several attempts by members of the involved parties (Ping Cheung and the Notary involved) to make payments to John Chao, in order to remove his complaint and allow his ex-wife and children to remain in the US. For the notary, her family did not want for her to be fined and prosecuted for the fraud. John Chao refused all monies and proceeded with the case.

We assume that the illegal sale of the property was due to her large gambling habits.

There have been several attempts to reach an agreement that is fair, based upon the circumstances. The offer was made thru Clayton Manning to allow for Bank of the West to re finance the home under John Chaos name for the original amount owed and the balance should be separated as the fraud and have them continue to pursue the case against Ping Cheung.

It is important to have the name of Ping Cheung permanently removed from all title documents, in order for John to be able to re finance the house under his name only. Attached in this CD, you will find several supporting documents for this case.

I am seeking to stop the sales of the home.
I am seeking compensation from proven involved parties in the fraud.
I am seeking letters to attest to the fraud in order to clear my credit reports.

I am willing to testify against any perpetrator involved in the fraud against me, if called to do so.
