Aside from personally being the biggest asshole I know in this world, my brother-in-law was also a loan officer for Wells Fargo and Household Finance. He's only 26 years old, mind you. I don't know all of the specifics, but he was involved in some sort of shitty mortgage scheme where, basically, he was screwing people up the ass on interest rates and raking in a shitload of commission for himself. He and my sister (who's a lazy, unemployed drug addict with 2 kids) literally went from rags to riches within a matter of months. And they're still rich. The "how did they do it?" question however, has yet to be answered.
He quit his job at Wells Fargo, and now he's working at a bank. I don't know if he's a teller or what. All I know is that he got the hell outta Wells Fargo, and right after people started "going down" at that office for all sorts of shady dealings. He was obviously involved, and I can only pray that freckle-faced red-headed stepchild gets what he deserves. He's the most manipulating, cunning piece of human garbage I've ever encountered.
A couple of years ago, he asked me to hand out his business cards, and he'd give me $200 for every person who refinanced because of me. I didn't hand out a single card, because I didn't need the money, and even if I did I wouldn't take it from him. But also because it seemed so fishy and shady I didn't want any parts of it.
