West One International review: Scam 4

Adam Cohen is a Scam Artist, he still $2, 500 from me, and won't provide a refund

This posting was originally published in August 2013 by a former client. From 1999 thru 2008 I owned a company named Woodlands International; originally started in London, England in 1999, from 2004 thru 2008 the company was located in New York with offices in the Empire State Building. Like many others the recession caused significant losses which ultimately caused the company after nine years in business to close down in 2008. Our bank at that time seized all accounts including escrowed funds from multiple clients. Collectively the affected parties elected to pursue an online campaign posting a plethora of false, negative and damaging information on multiple websites in order to create a conspiracy theory that I had intentionally defrauded them. Their attempts were unsuccessful and no further action was ever taken. While I did come to settlement agreements with several of the affected parties; not all matters were resolved and such individuals including the author of this August 2013 posting continue to post negative information online to this day about myself, my businesses and any other activity I may be involved with. The author of this posting had dealings with Woodlands International in 2008. West One International was not formed until 2010.

On July 13, 2016 a person using a false alias added a negative comment about myself and West One International to this August 2013 posting. That same person also added their own posting on this complaint website titled “Hard Money Loan”. The facts of this posting are as follows:

In January of this year I hired several new sales representatives. Sales representatives generally handle all matters relating to their clients and in this particular case the sales rep had specifically requested that he alone will handle all client communication. All loans are processed by back of the house operations and I personally have virtually no involvement with third party sales rep files except for approving the initial term sheet and final review of the file prior to closing. Our term sheet expressly states that a refund may be offered unless expenses have been incurred. In this case there had been incurred expenses and no refund was available. Unfortunately, we were not able to close a loan for this person as the loan failed to meet the necessary requirements. Both the sales representative and the underwriter for this loan were terminated for poor performance failing to keep clients apprised.

Please take into consideration the following:
1. There are two sides to every story
2. Many pertinent facts are withheld to make their plight seem more desperate and the actions of the offending party more severe
3. People who post on these sites like to use eye catching harsh words such as “scam” and “fraud” to maximize the future damage caused including damage to reputation and loss of revenue
4. People only see their own point of view
5. When posting on these sites people generally exaggerate every issue out of proportion
6. People use these complaint websites as a form of extortion stating that unless their demands are satisfied they will post negative comments online. This is considered a form of harassment and is also a felony.

Adam is a certifiable liar, con-man, and socio-path. He stole 35, 000 from me on a real estate deal in NYC. I was able to recover a good amount, but only after over a year of chasing him and his attorney Jack Aini. He basically did not perform anything that he promised, mis-represented facts, and quite obviously stalled the process in the hopes that people will desperately just give up trying to get their money back from a deal that was always "too good to be true".

I was able to make contact with several other people that he had conned on the exact same property and he stole similar amounts of money from them.

If anyone has knowledge of his whereabouts- please email catchcohen@gmail.com- someone set this email up to help consolidate all the victims stories and help build a criminal case against this irredeemable crook, who belongs in prison.
