Rabbi Lawrence Eliezer Finkelstein Larry Finkelstein Thief Fraud Largo, Florida

Collected funds from Congregents, friends and anyone he could reach along Anthony James Wimmer,  Also known as Tony Wimmer of Arlington, Texas.  Supposedly for the purchase of new automotibles at huge savings.   The funds were supposed to be used to fund a religous organization but the two split all the money collected (over 1 million dollars) between themselves.  They delivered one or two very low cost vehicles of the dozens ordered.

Flydlux .com was an operation run by the same two principals Wimmer and Finkelstein that was supposed to supply airline tickets at very steep discounts.  The vast majority of tickets were never delivered.  "Rizzen" Mark Hopkins was the supposed CFO of the operation and chief defender of Finkelstein, who attempted to place sole blame for the whole affair on Wimmer.  Yet Hopkins knew of the prior debacle in Texas involving the cars.

Finkelstein is also a disbarred attorney in Flordia, partly as the result of skimming funds from the estate of a Widow. He has a long an checkered past not detailed here.

His involvement in Allef LLC and Docaldo LLC is not known,  and he may be partnered with his brother.  His brother Allen is believed to be totally innocent of any involvement in finkelsteins illegal activites.
