Ok then this Jerry David Greene you speak of has never been mentioned in regards to Petro America Corp that I know of.
Found this:
(B) The second crook is even more sleazy than Bazzoli, a Dave Greene (originally from Georgia, amusingly). After I got rid of Bazzoli on the building project, I brought in what I thought was a friend -- Dave Greene. Last known address is 1340 Bonito Ct. in Gilbert, AZ, 85223.
Greene basically did the same thing to me as Bazzoli did (shame on me). Greene conned too much money out of me. (More loans from family.) $113,000 to him and a plumber friend of his. For $113,000 we got about 30 to 40 thousand dollars worth of work done.
Greene lied in many ways. For example, when I told him we needed a registered contractor for the job, Greene brought in a "Don Barrett" (whom I believe was also conned by Greene) and represented Barrett as the registered contractor for the job. After I figured out Greene was a thief and a liar, I called up Barrett to inform him about the problem. Barrett told me he was brought in by Greene as a consultant, not a contractor.....fraud on Greene's part.
Greene's lies and fraud are too voluminous to mention here. If you wish, I'd be delighted to show you his written conflicting statements or "lies." Some real "whoppers."
Greene no doubt put the bulk of the monies given him into a pyramid scheme called "Friends Helping Friends" which is illegal and constitutes racketeering. How do I know this? After a point, the pyramid scheme was all Greene would talk about. It was his new "toy." Greene even told me he had a $12,000 gift each for me and my dad from said pyramid scheme......."Hmmm" I thought. I never put any money into his pyarmid scheme. Why is Greene offering me monies from said pyramid scheme?Hmmm. (No $12,000 gifts, of course.) Since then I know of one other individual, a Tony Muir, who told me he lost $3,000 to Greene's pyramid scheme.
Like Bazzoli before him, Greene also has a "gimmick" -- a fuel additive called "Clean Air 2000" (see copies of contracts.) which does reduce emissions as Greene claims. However, as someone pointed out to me: "Alcohol put into your gas tank will do the same." As a matter of fact, I realized later that Greene at one point only marketed his fuel additive overseas (where he couldn't be easily prosecuted for fraud). At one point when I believed in Greene, I took it upon myself to try to promote his "Clean Air 2000" fuel additive locally. I wrote to local TV news stations about it. When I proudly told Greene of this, Greene told me in no uncertain terms "not to do any more of that." Hmmm, I thought. Now I know why. His clean air product is fraud --- little more than alcohol.
Currently, I am suing Greene in Maricopa County Superior Court (with funds from my dad). Case No. CV1999-91028. The lawyer thinks we will get a Summary Judgement due to Greene's "weak arguments." However, collecting is another matter. Greene is a predator and "slippery."
Other companies Green and his family own are:
(A) "Engineered Lubricants Services" of 431 S.Stapley, Mesa, AZ 85204
(B) "C & B Properties" P.O. Box 40811, Mesa, AZ 85274
("C & B" means, by the way, "Crash and Burn".......Cute, huh?)
In reviewing the examples of how these scams and con men work.....they seem to have a "gimmick" or "hot new invention" ---to get your interest. They get as much money as they can as quickly as possible; they do about 1/4 to 1/3 of the work promised, and drag the ordeal out as long as possible with lies and more lies. They "know the system."
One thing I've learned is you don't do business here in Arizona.....not until certain policies or realities in our government change. The government here, by turning a blind eye to these con men, is in part responsible.
Thank you for reading what turned out to be a rather lengthy letter. Please let me know if I can help in any way.
