My name is Steve Peterson. I was to invest in Todd Nolettes private equity pool. But, because not enough other investors came on board a backed out. Todd took malicious actions against my partner. Todd is dishonest and a crook. Don't give him any money and don't do business with him. If he continues his evil deeds against me or my associates, I will take further actions to check the behavior.

Some times when you bring forth the truth, there is the possibility of back-lash. I filled a rip off report against a Curtis Brown and shut down his operation. As retaliation, he filed a fabricated report against me under his alias Scott Peterson

Please note: I was the victim of a scam and am being extorted by the author of this report. I lost $5,000.
I hired an associate of the author of this report to draw up a private placement memorandum. I ended up getting a boiler plate PPM I could have downloaded from the internet. I was very disappointed and felt the terms were severely misrepresented.
I later read about the person I gave the money to on the internet Rip off Report so I added a few comment as to my experience with him. Within 10 days this post you are reading was anonymously placed against me and was completely fabricated. There is not one element of truth to this “rip off report”.
-
I was the one that was ripped off by placing trust in a company to handle writing up my PPM in exchange for my $5,000.
- This PPM was never placed with any investor nor would i ever submit it to any investor as it was a sub standard dangerous mess.
-
I have never conned anyone or taken anyone’s money
-
I have been licensed in CA for 22 years with no complaints or problems of any kind
- I hold any investor relationships I made on my own in the highest regard and place there interests before my own!
-
I am a home builder/ developer and ad value to communities and neighbor-hoods.
-
I used Villa Group from northern CA so that I can earn a commission on the land I buy for my company.
-
I have never met or corresponded with the author of this report in any capacity. I was dealing with someone the author referred to as friend. His name is Curtis Brown.
If you have questions or would like clarification or elaboration on anything in this report as it relates to me I would be more than happy to discuss with you. The author of this rip off report was nice enough to leave all of my contact information on his post.
Sincerely, Todd (the true victim)
Ps. I have added the letter sent to me by author of this rip off report. You can see how he was threatening me not to post anymore of my experiences in working with his associate.

Todd, first of all I never signed anything regarding you. Second, yeah you are taking such a big stretch calling me Curtis you may as well just tell the world you are a big scammer. Villa Group should know what kind of coward and crooked agent you are.

Steve Peterson and Curtis Brown are the same person

Curtis- or Steve if you prefer.
If you contine to attack my integrity I will bring you to authorities with a law suite. So far you have been annomous and refuse to identify yourself and the reason for your hostilities. I have done a web search for your name and email and nothing appears anywhere with any point of reference. You did however appear as one of Curtis Browns "investors" that made the smallest pledge of $2,500 dollars. Well, that is equivelant to what i lost. Oddly enough you where the only investor who actually repsonded to Maou lanfor-Ash saying how great Curtis Brown was with his service. There wasnt one other "pledge" that had any validity. So im going to make a big jump here . You are in fact Curtis Brown. So being that he is the only one that can be identified and you attack annonomously . Its is he that I will go after if there is one more false statement placed on this site or any other site for that matter. Further, I would like you to retract your statements about me since we have never met, never done business together as you represent yourself as StevePeterson49@yahoo.com as the only point of contact. Im sure it is an anonymous email for Curtis Brown. You decide where this goes.

Todd, I am glad I did not invest with you. You breach contracts and you try to force parties to extend contracts. You are a terroist in my opinion. Because you are broke and desparate you resort to anything and everything. Guys like you never learn. You are as crooked as they c*m and I hope your boss finds out about your dealings soon. You play the victim very well. Well, it's not going to work. I guess you really don't care about your reputation. It figures. I saw the emails between you and Curtis and your contract. You are so inappropriate. So, you've time on your hands, let's begin our journey from here.
When you've had enough we'll stop.

Interestingly- Here is a letter from the person the wrote report against me
AUTHOR: Todd - ()
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 08, 2013
Interestingly, this is the email that I recieved after filing a report on rip off report. Remember, I'm the only one that lost money here and this is the guy (steve peterson) that has my money---- along with Curtis Brown.
Mr. Nolette,
We have not have the pleasure of speaking directly, but I know much about you from Curtis. I was in fact a potential investor considering investing in your fund pool.
Basically, Curtis and I are very close friends. I had agreed to invest in your company only if certain requirements were met. Those requirements were not met and I did not invest. It's really that simple. It was not Curtis' fault. You can blame me if you wish, but my understanding was that Curtis fulfilled his contract, but you took upon yourself to want to imply Curtis has some "magic" to force investors me and others to invest. And, you wanted to continue to engage Curtis even after apparently you were told there was nothing further Curtis could do for you.
So, you have made assumptions and my understanding was that your contract was fulfilled and completed.
You remind me of a gentleman named Robert Rowe from Florida. He enjoyed Ripoff Report until he found out the the hard way that Ripoff Reports are a two way street. Ultimately he's out of business as a direct result of me. Want proof. Google "Custom Chopperwerks", or "Robert Rowe".
Curtis was away on vacation and when he returned, he told me about your ripoff report. He was not trying to avoid you, but had taking some time off. I suspect now he really has no intentions to speaking to you now, so here I am.
I trust we are communicating. I sent a similar email to Robert Rowe and he thought I was bluffing. That is until Paypal's legal dept and other entities caught up with him. Go ahead check Custom Chopperwerks BBB record. I was responsible for taking down the fake A+ Rating.
The message is: Stay off online with your comments and I'll do the same. To make sure you understand me - you now have your own Ripoff Report and I will post a new one everytime time you think about posting negative comments about anyone. I will also add youtube videos. So that anytime someone types in Todd Nolette they will my comments.
I've done some checking and you are not "squeaky clean" and you got debt. I will not hesitate to air your dirty laundry and put it on youtube. Curtis was only trying to help you and "dog piled" on my friend. SHAME ON YOU!!!!
I trust this discussion was productive and complete and you enjoy working in real estate. If not, I don't mind to extend further the lesson I gave to Robert Rowe and two others.

The Facts
AUTHOR: TODD - ()
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 08, 2013
IF YOUR LOOKING AT THIS REPORT YOU KNOW HOW RIPP OFF REPORT WORKS, ANYONE CAN WRITE ANYTHING ABOUT ANYONE. FROM A PRACTICAL FORMAT, IT CAN BE VIEWED AS A RELEVENT WAY TO VENT PROBLEMS YOU MAY HAVE HAD WITH SOMEONE.
SIMPLE FACT IS IM THE GUY THAT OUT THE MONEY
IM THE GUY THAT WAS SUCKERED INTO AN UPFRONT FEE OF $2,500 -
BASICALLY I PAID A CONSULTANT (CURTIS BROWN AND ASSOCIATE STEVE PETERSON) TO HELP ME FORMALIZE A BUSINESS IDEA. I ENDED UP WALKING AWAY WITH A WORTHLESS PIECE OF PAPER AND A HOSTILE CON MAN MAKING UP STORIES ABOUT ME FOR INTERNET PLEASURE- REAL FUN.
