You need to call in the hounds, hoosiermama. May have hit the motherload.

Bruce Gamett if the key person on Reid Bunkerville LLC

Here are the Nevada Secretary of State listings on Bruce Gamett

http://nvsos.gov/SOSEntitySearch/corpsearch.aspx?st=o&ln=Gamette&fn=Bruce+

I’ve gone through the county assessor map listings for the Bunkerville/ Bundy Ranch area. I know at least Welfare Farm is right next to the Reid Bunkerville LLC land, and to the Bunker Farm Land.

Here’s where we go Cowabunga.

Reid is apparently close to Jared Shafer, a business partner, who together ripped off North Las Vegas for $10 million.

Unleash the dogs of war.
Next, link Jared Shafer to Harry reid. Here is one lead.

You need to research CNBC's American Greed segment WRT a huge land fraud in Florida---an elaborate scheme that fooled retirees, seasoned real estate agents and big companies alike. The list of alleged victims is still growing, long after the crooks fled to Russia (their homeland). It was later conjectured that the Wolf's--nor their real names--were frontmen for the global Medusa-headed Russian mob.

=============================================

The Victor/Natalia Wolf story

SOURCE: insuranceupanddown.com

Living the Good Life Selling Fla realty. Police investigating Florida developers for millions in global real estate fraud. They hosted posh yachting parties, drove luxury cars and wore designer clothes and Rolexes...

But now their company, Sky Development Group, is at the center of a huge real estate fraud investigation that started in Citrus County - and could span the globe. Detectives say they think Natalia and Victor Wolf slipped out of the country in October, leaving behind more than 100 victims and taking more than $20 million from fraudulent transactions.

No charges have been filed. Investigators from the FBI, the Citrus County Sheriff's Office and the North Miami Beach Police Department are building a case and trying to unravel how the deals were done.

For a while Sky Development Group appeared to be operating legitimately. But problems with the company's land sales started surfacing in October. Investigators say they don't know whether the alleged scam was part of a long-orchestrated plot or a last-ditch attempt to deal with a plummeting real estate market. One thing is clear: The elaborate scheme fooled retirees, seasoned real estate agents and big companies alike.

The list of alleged victims grows daily. "Everybody believed them. Everybody bought into their scheme," said Alex Hamilton, a Miami real estate agent who sold more than $500,000 of the company's property and bought a lot for himself in Citrus Springs. "We're all trying to figure out how they did this. We're still reeling."

Citrus Springs residents saw the first sign of trouble in August, when the company abruptly left its local office in the community welcome center. But Sky hadn't paid its $9,653 monthly office rent since June, said Sharon Hummerhielm, executive vice president of Deltona Corp., which owns the building.

Detectives say they think Natalia and Victor Wolf are of Russian descent, but they aren't entirely sure. They don't know when the couple came to America, if they came together, how they met or whether they were married. Investigators know Natalia Wolf used a German passport to enter Germany in October. They don't know how she obtained a German passport. And they can't confirm that anyone named Victor Wolf even exists.

Victor Wolf started Sky Development Group in July 2004, state records show. He resigned as its registered agent in December of that year. Natalia Wolf replaced him. The company was based in North Miami Beach, but investigators say they think it also started projects in St. Augustine and Palm Coast, and maybe Texas and Arkansas.

The company bought 149 lots in Citrus Springs in November 2004 for $2.2 million from Deltona Corp., the company behind sprawling communities like Spring Hill and Deltona Lakes. It was Sky's first major purchase in the north Citrus County development, where property values had just started to surge. But it wasn't the last. Sky later purchased 175 lots from Deltona for $2.4 million. And the company bought and sold more than 1,000 pieces of property in Citrus Springs since 2004, county records show.

Sky aggressively marketed the property for months on Russian-language TV stations and newspapers across the U.S. It appears many people who bought property were from the Russian community based in the US.

Sky also played a prominent role in Citrus Springs. Employees handed out free hot dogs and hamburgers at picnics in the company parking lot. They joined the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce and the Citrus County Builders Association. At the welcome center they gave away glossy brochures and led free tours for potential buyers.

"She apologized profusely, saying that things had just gotten past her because she was pregnant," said Deltona's Hummerhielm. "She was so sorry." Deltona didn't realize the extent of Natalia Wolf's deception until it was too late, Hummerhielm said. "Now we're stuck like everybody else is," she said.

Investigators say it appears most of the land Sky sold was in Citrus Springs, though buyers are scattered across the country. Many lived in South Florida. Before the birth of their baby girl several months ago, they celebrated with a shower on a cruise boat near North Miami Beach. More than 100 people enjoyed an open bar, caviar and gourmet desserts, said Peter Madison, an Orlando developer who attended the affair. "It was extravagant, actually. That's why I never questioned them," Madison said. "They knew how to throw a party. It was a baby shower for the rich and famous."

Less than a month later, Victor Wolf called Madison to tell him times were tough for Sky. He asked for a loan. Instead, Madison agreed to buy 129 lots from Sky for $1.3 million. In October they sealed the deal. But Sky Development didn't own those lots, according to fraudulent deed notices and lawsuits filed by several lawyers representing clients across Florida.

"They were actually great people to deal with. They actually did what they said, and they were no problem at all," he said. "Then we found out they had disappeared."The signature scrawled on all of Sky Development Group's corporate filings, and most of the company's property transactions, is simple. "Wolf," it says, with Natalia Wolf's name typed neatly underneath.

"They were the nicest people," said Mona Alley, 53. The Alleys bought a Precious Moments jogging suit for the couple's new baby girl. They bought an $80 bottle of Russian vodka for their anniversary. And in August and September they bought more than $330,000 worth of additional property in Citrus Springs, Mona Alley said. But legitimate deeds for that purchase don't exist, and the money the Alleys paid is missing.

The company where they wired most of the money, All Title and Trust Co., dissolved in August. No record of the company exists in the files of the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation, which licenses all title companies in the state. The company's manager, according to corporate filings, was Natalia Wolf.

The company, owned by Sky Development Group, offered a good product for a great price, so the Coral Springs couple took out a loan and gave the company a $28,500 down payment.

After no sign of construction for months, Peter Mazzarino, a 49-year-old locksmith, grew suspicious and called police. In September, North Miami Beach police Detective Ed Hill went with him to Sky's headquarters, located in an upscale strip mall, for a meeting with Natalia Wolf. But on Oct. 16, after a $28,500 refund check that Natalia Wolf gave Peter Mazzarino bounced, Hill returned to the headquarters. He found unlocked doors leading to an empty office, with papers scattered inside. The scene was similar a few blocks away at the five-bedroom waterfront home in Eastern Shores where Natalia and Victor Wolf lived.

Hill said investigators are looking for Natalia and Victor Wolf's possible assets, including a 37-foot yacht and an Aston Martin. And they're trying to track down as many victims as possible. In Citrus County, billboards still boast that the developer will provide "The Best Home of Your Life." Sky Development Group owns 345 parcels assessed at $9.4 million, records show. But officials don't know if those deeds are legitimate.

Last month a Citrus sheriff's detective received a complaint claiming that at least one deed transferring property to Sky in 2005 was signed by a dead man. Meanwhile, Mazzarino said he's also trying to find as many victims as possible so the group can band together to hire a lawyer and sort out the mess.

============================================== Allegations include claims that the Wolf's Florida-based Sky Development Group:

- Forged deeds and sold more than $1M n worth of property it didn't own in one Citrus County development, Citrus Springs.

- Took millions of dollars for land without turning over the property to the buyers.

- Referred buyers to a fake title company managed by the crooks to close land deals.

- Took money for new homes it never built or never finished.

Bruce Gamett is the link between Shafer and Reid. After retiring as Clark Co. Public Administrator, Shafer opened up Professional Fiduciary Services of Nevada. Gamett and King do all of his accounting, and along with Shafer's crooked book-cooking assistant Amy Viggiano Deittrich, and former guardian Patience Bristol, as well as Patricia Trent, Elyse Tryell, Alan Freer, and others, have bilked old and disabled persons for millions throughout their reign of terror. One of their victims recently filed a civil suit against them to try and recover the nearly $500,000 bled from her account by Shafer, attorneys, and Bruce Gamett. Shafer and Gamett as well as Shawn King have many mutual commercial real estate ventures together, and they were all involved in the VESCORP ponzi scheme a few yrs back. Good luck prosecuting these scumbags in NV. The A.G. is Shafer's best friend's daughter. Many have tried and failed! I have A LOT of info on these people but for particular reasons I can only discuss privately and not on public forum. please send me a private response if interested.
