Florida First Financial
Lee Alan Reed & Associates
Lighthouse capital solution

all owned by Susan Lienhart and Reed Lienhart

My name is Keith White - alias bill williams, chris wall, john good. I worked for Florida First Financial for about 15 years. I left on good terms and the deal was that we would part ways in peace. Without you really knowing Reed you wouldnt understand this but he has to be the biggest and loudest, he is so bad he give a B.S. story about playing for the bucks, Yes Reed if you reading this I know your full of crap you dad told me. He just couldnt leave things alone, so he started telling people he fired me. First of all he didnt fire me, I quit because Im 65 years old and quit the day I got my SSI check.

Im here to say that most of these posts are correct. Reed collects payments on average about 35/45/6. This means an account that is 0 to 6 months of age he gets 35%. Reed would often hold payments not showing clients until it passed to 45%. As this is bad enough records in the system show Reed is only paying out on average 5% to 7%, this means he is keeping around 95%.

Clients were always calling wanting to know where their money was. Reed would tell me to get on the phone and lie. He would have me tell clients that it was never paid to us and make debtors find proof, most of the time they didnt have proof and Reed would get paid twice.

He would have me tell clients that they paid them 4 months ago and the check was cashed. It was all lies 1/2 the time clients would never check with the banks or research it, so it was just more money Reed would get to keep. Reed would change the Date of Service dates on accounts so they would stay on the credit bureaus longer. Here is the question, I wonder how much money Reed and Susan Lienhart have on hold that has never been reported to their clients.

I have been hearing that Reed is laundering money from Florida First Financial into a dummy FFFG account. I was told Reed now has two Florida first bank accounts, so that when the courts ask for his financial records he can give them the one with dummy books. He is depositing into the FFFG account about 1000 a week originaly then keeps bringing is down in small steps in hopes to prove he is pennyless. He is also laundering money into the Lighthouse Capital solutions with 10K checks and also now depositing most of the money into Lee Alan Reed.

Yes FRED is still his counsel and works for reed despite what Reed trys to claim, Fred is there all the time. Both Reed and I were both in the office every single time a process server came to serve him.

Reed just instructs the girls to say he is not in or that they work for a temp service and cant except it. He cant pay clients because he spends to much with a house in Mt dora and a house on franklin, a mercedes, two kids in private school, a new ford pickup, hummer, 20 mopeds, boats. He is living high on hog while screwing over all his clients. He may never have played for the bucks but he has laundered enough to live like one.. Go Bucks

Keith White - I will testify in court

#2 Consumer Comment

In regard to Reeds fraud

AUTHOR: The Others - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, February 26, 2009

God have mercy on Reed , if he thinks he has problems now, think of when the other two members that quit his office find out Reed gave KW a 5000$ check and they didnt received their back pay also. IMO Reed is not a smart business man. A smart business man would take care of all loose ends and chalk it up to the cost of doing business. I wonder what would happen if the other two member came forward and posted everything KW said was true and accurate.


Hey other two guys, You know Reed is going to lie to his clients for example he may try and say he owes "Jody" 10K to 15K which we know isnt true. I wouldnt wait for him to settle post the real amounts online and take this fool down!

LIGHTHOUSE CAPITAL FRAUD SCAM COMPANY SUSAN LIENHART

AUTHOR: Keithwhite - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, January 08, 2009

On 12/23/08 Reed Lienhart showed up at my home around 7:30pm I was sleeping and awoke to a loud pounding on the door so hard I thought the door was going to come off the hinges. At first I thought maybe there was a fire, or maybe an emergancy, so I quickly answered the door. When I answered the door it was Reed Lienhart. I asked him what he wanted and he stated he wanted me to delete my postings off rip off dot com and to change any further testimony in depositions about Susan Lienhart recieveing money from Florida First. I informed Reed that wouldnt be done, and his comment was that the attorneys wont find anything anyhow because cash is not traceable. During this conversation Reed kept receiving phone calls on his cell phone. After the fourth call coming in on his cell phone, I asked if he was going to answer the phone or just keep letting it ring. He said it was Susy and he wasnt going to answer the phone or leave my house until I changed my mind about changing further testimonys and removing rip off dot com reports I posted before. I told Reed to leave my house and he said you know I have a consealed weapons permit and always carry a knife, things can happen. At this point I was fairly scared because Reed has been backed into a courner by Susan and when people get backed into a courner they only have one option and thats to come out fighting. I dont like to lie about things but I did tell Reed ok, let me call rip off dot com and see if I can have it removed now please just leave my home. Reed said I will expect a call from you in a few days to let me know when you removed it and he left.
