Mortgage Consulting Firm, LLC Tom Pfirrman Scammer to Employees and Clients Los Angeles, California

I worked for Tom Pfirrman for just a few days, which was long enough to assess just what kind of business he was operating. I've worked for the good guys before, helping people with their loan modifications, so I think I know the difference between a legit firm and a scammer.

I felt funny telling people that their money would be held in an "escrow account", because I knew it wasn't true, anymore than half the other promises made. We were 1099 employees, and yet we were monitored by camera and had to adhere to a strict schedule, which I had no problem with. What I DID have a problem with was the boiler room environment. Tom would come bursting into the room while we were on the phone and start shouting so loud that a potential client could easily hear the chaos, since we didn't have a noise-canceling feature on the desk phones. All in all, it was just a stressful place to work.

So after 3 days of hell, I called him up and said I wouldn't be coming in anymore, and tried to make it a friendly parting of ways. He said he would get a check in the mail that Friday, which turned out to be a pittance of $120. Well, that was 3 WEEKS ago, and I have yet to receive a check, despite my regular phone calls. Today I finally spoke to one of the ladies in the office, which I should have done in the first place, knowing that Tom is "forgetful"...and I won't go into his private health concerns here....I just want my little check!

I was not fired...I quit on my own accord. So I am not a "disgruntled employee"...or at least I WASN'T when I decided to leave! I just wonder why he risks having these reports from former employees...all it would have taken was a lousy $120 to make me go away.
