My story started in mid Febuary of 2011. i saw an ad in Craigslist for rent to own ad on a boat on the apartment and housing section instead of marine or boating. this is so theo can con and scam people whom have very little knowledge of boats like myself.. I entered an agreement for a 1989 bayliner 28' cierra the boat. I later met a nice gentlemen, whom earlier test drove the same boat to be frauded out of the $4k deposit for a test drive. that gentleman has a judgment for $4k againt theo for the fraud. On march 3, 2011, i gave a deposit for 2000 and agreed to pay $560 or more a month for the purchase price of $14,900 so the total first month check was $2560 with the purchase agreement. every month i dillegently paid the 560 and on some paid $`1000 for 4 months. I also noticed he cashed every check within 30 minutes of delievery. i found he did this because he has 54 judgements against him for similar frauds.When the boat was delivered, it was in great disrepair. no reverse and major engine problems . After i reached the purchase price of the boat, I reqeusted a pink slip. at that time Theo D'oro informs me it was only a rental and never a rent to own. Meaning i gave Theo the conman $16k and have been conned. i also found out he has been trying to take possession in order to con another victim. I have numerous threats of sinking the boats. threats to my health and so on.
I then went to the police and marin county clerks office. I found I 'am one of many of his victims and my case is identical to 20+ others. I have informed the Marin D,A.
Theo the con man needs to be stopped. He is freely raping GOOD people on craiglist out of their good money.
