It’s hilarious that every time he gets stressed out he pulls his shirt up and plays with his nipple no matter where he is 😂
He's such a weirdo freak!
Lol so true 😂🤣
Yeah, what's up with the nip play?
datz the side business...pimping boys..lol
more like EXIG(aym)EN....lol
As someone who worked with pools for 6 years, the fact that people paid more than 10% of the total cost before any construction is wild
Right.
You’re joking right? Lol it’s perfectly normal for a company to not start a job until the check clears.
The guy you are working for is lying to you when he says “we no got no money yet from client” - 10% is nothing, especially if you getting clients through referrals etc.
@@Trailerwalker Check clears, sure, but not the ENTIRE sum of the job's total payout.
concrete worker here, step brother owns the company and clients don’t pay till work is done 99% of the time. sometimes they don’t wanna pay too then he puts a lien on their house.
Who ever is in charge of making decisions for this news company needs to take notes. We the people love this content. Give us more of you exposing bad people
Seriously this was informative and entertaining. Wish my local news was like this!
Hayyyy Brandon come on in the waters warm here in the halllllll of shame! 😂😂
Well said
It’s actual news instead of propaganda.
@@jamesp1289 That happens when you don't listen to news organizations that are not news channels but rather infotainment and opinion editorials. And that's not partisan one way or the other.
As a contractor who prides himself on doing fair business, I must say this is disgusting. This man should be jailed for 20 years flat. This is people's hard earned money. This is dang near worse than breaking into someone's house and stealing their TV. At least the breaking and entering thief only takes A Tv and not a whole $81k.
This is absolutely way worse than breaking into someones home and taking their TV. Each single case is way worse in isolation.
@@Thor_Underdunk_CaballerialI think he said that in his comment
@@imsuited1658 He said it's "near worse". It's way worse
If that house had a whole 81k the thief will take the money lmao

This reporter really is shining light on problems that affect normal consumers. Kudos to him for his work!
Remember people are just “normal consumers”
Need more of that in my town. Unlicensed? Thats a surprise
ah yes the normal consumers that have 100k to spend on a pool
People who can afford pools aren’t “normal consumers.”
Normal consumers can't afford a pool
I think it is absolutely ridiculous that you can be arrested for stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from people and then use that same money to bond yourself out of jail...
that would never happen in a perfect world. he should be fkn penniless. no way he actually made any money besides stealing it off rich idiots
Reminds me of someone else who made it to the top and still paying legal fees with other people’s money.

This is what I loved about 90s tv. Almost every week you saw a local scam getting busted by local tv personalities. I thought this type of thing died out. Glad to see it still happens.
John Stossil is one of my favorite investigative journalists for that reason. He would always do segments on shady businesses and would confront the owner.
They should start series about political crimes.

Just like those "primitive pool building" videos. Apparently they destroy the natural fauna, dry up rivers, and even build on other people's land without their permission.

I know a car dealer like this with titles. He will take 60-90 days to get people car titles I've even tried reporting him to the DMV and I know others have too and they don't do anything about it lmao
You have to do background checks if you plan to spend that much money, he needs to be sued..he's heading to jail, and bankruptcy, and a beating.
i had a contractor try to convince me a didn't need permits on something, so when i pressed him on it, he relented but quoted me a ridiculous price for the permit, i know this because i contacted the city afterwards. he was trying to charge 10x what the permit cost, just for pulling a permit.
fortunately i'm not a sucker and don't bend to high pressure sales tactics.... don't be in a rush when you have work done, there are respectable tradesmen out there, performing honest work, sometimes it takes a little looking around and talking to people to find them.
You could just not fork over 6 figures to a soft-handed GC. This guy hasn't worked a day in his life. The clients are just as guilty.

John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

I learned my lesson. Any competent contractor will happily provide copy of license, their commercial insurance, and importantly, surety bond.
This is the only kind of journalism i want to see
This report by Rob Wolchek is fabulous. Great investigative journalism, and entertaining!
07:35 I agree and he is willing to go to great depths to deliver~!
Seems local news are only real investor journalist left❤❤❤❤
he is a freak. he speaks like a freak.
reminds me when i was a kid watching 60 min with my dad but for the new age
This man is hilarious
The crazy part of the story is that he really did know how to market his business extremely well. He could have just hired a few people who actually knew what they were doing and still made a lot of money. But he chose the get rich quick, screw everyone over, and live the Instagram lifestyle route.
Nope, it’s definitely a red flag when you have a course in hustling. I don’t even feel bad for the idiots who payed for his course.
Ego for sure, he seems very lost to me.
This is the thing with these idiots: too stupid to calculate they're good enough bullshitters they can hire someone else & pay them peanuts to do the work and still make a ton of money .
i was thinking the same thing. like how stupid can you be, he obviously got a bunch of potentially lucrative contracts and was pulling money in all over the place, all he had to do was turn it into a legitimate business and he would have been making more than scamming people and got to keep doing it, but he decided to be greedy. What a pissed away opportunity
i guess when you have to pay people to actually build the pools that leaves behind less money for private jet trips and new cars to post on da gram
The editing and writing in this is amazingly well done.
Excellent reporting! More of this stuff, please!
This guy is the contractor version of the Tinder Swindler. Also, people need to do their homework before hiring a contractor.
Don’t diss the Tinder Swindler like that
The way they show a clip of him saying “dont walk away from pressure” while he is literally walking away from pressure is amazing
Then he proceeded to run his nipples some more
This is awesome scammers should be shamed publicly
the nipple rubbing is the worst part lol
0:54 Any contractor that calls himself and his henchmen "an intimate group of young hustlers" should have alarm bells ringing with every potential client.
No one in their right mind does buisness with someone who unironically describes their work as a 'hustle'.
@@TheRiiiightSpeak for yourself.
As someone who has worked in pools for more than 10 years I can tell you that this happens a lot. My advice to people who are looking for a pool company always check license and go with the biggest company. Bigger company means more money if they should happen to mess up. Never ever pay more than 10-15 percent before pool is completed. When it’s completed get two different pool inspectors to inspect pool. If it’s good then you pay them the remaining balance.
Good to hear this. Reading thru all the responsive, everybody has their own system, it's all over the map. You'd think there would a national standard, rather than what seems like the wild, wild west.
Respect to you sir. Advice like this this hopefully helps.
How do you go about checking licenses ?
@@eomyenom1 depends which state your in but for me I’m in NY so you go to the City website Department of state city license Center and you put company’s name and info. For any state it should be the same. You can also google search company and do like a background check on company. That’s why I said it’s best to go with the bigger company because 9/10 they will be licensed for sure.
Keep in mind he’s using the money from one project to finish another project he started, this gets out of control really quick
It’s 2023 and people still can’t recognize snake oil.
This is some good ass journalism for a local news network 😂
As someone with a Dad who runs a pool remodeling business, this makes my blood boil. Doing actual contracting work is HARD and takes effort. Some douche who has no clue what he’s doing should not be able to scam people like this, which is why licenses are important and CONFIRMING THEM before you contract is important from the customer side too.
Lol at your blood boiling LOLO
@@frozensunset you probably paid for that dude online course it’s okay to get scammed buddy just think next time olololol
The government should be more involved. As much as they are about our taxes.
As someone whose dad died that lived next to a neighborhood pool, I feel like this is somehow apropos to my situation
Can you build me a pool?
I am completely put off by contractors showing off their “riches”. All it says to me is that they charge way too much for their services. Show offs are usually epic con artists.
Exactly. If you're that obsessed with showing off your wealth, money is likely the only reason you're in the business, and so you don't care about doing a satisfactory job.
If he had like 100 full time employees that wouldn’t bother me.. that’s a Lambo every two weeks in payroll.. but my guess is this scammer has 3 part time employees.
Yeah, I’m really shocked that anyone would hire this guy let alone give him 100% upfront. I have a hard time feeling sorry for people that have $100,000 and don’t have any brains. I am a general contractor and I would never ever hire any subcontractor that flashed money like this guy.
Absolutely!!! I like a contractor with a rusty old truck, pack of Marlboro in pocket T. They usually don't sugar coat
@@jamie.777 😀👍
This gentleman reporting is awesome! Great reporting and is true to what reporting truly is.
Yo props to the video editor on this one. Usually news reports are pretty dry visually (no pun intended) but they're putting in work lol the gags got me cracking up. They need a raise
As a contractor myself, you go into the business knowing you’re probably just going to take a loss for the first 2 years or so because of overhead and you always have to take into account that something could go wrong. Also please to anyone thinking of getting a pool, NEVER GET FIBERGLASS, it’s terrible for the environment and because it’s cheap it won’t last you more than 20 years before a huge issue arises with it. At least with plaster you can repair small cracks that go up to 1 1/2 feet. Pebble is the best overall due to durability IF INSTALLED CORRECTLY if not it will crack and fall apart within a year of installation.
Concrete with tile liner, the last for decades if maintained.
you don't know anything about fiberglass pools if you think that, i service multiple fiberglass pools that are 40+ years old, only thing they had is some refinishes. The problem with most pools is the homeowner has no one take care of it so they go to shit.
Never been a contractor but I studied engineering and also did construction work through my life, my dad owns a counter top business and I have worked with countless contractors on both a work end and business end.
Absolutely agree with what you have said here. It should be common sense but it's definitely not. A lot of people think they know but don't know. I don't know how many customers we had to tell "no, you cannot just set hot items on your solid surface (acrylic material) counter tops without damaging them" even after explaining the type of glue is used and the material that is used. It's a high end and durable plastic resin basically. It looks pretty and it can last forever, but it's not something you can just abuse.
My dad would usually repair one or two issues before charging for solid surface repairs. He also usually tried to talk people that obviously weren't listening into the higher end quartz material, which really is damn near indestructible, instead.
My parents had a fiberglass pool installed in 1982. It started getting black marks on it around 2005 that drove my mom nuts. They called some people out and nobody would work on it. They had to fly a guy in who was an expert. He said if they drained the pool they risked it folding in on itself. Anyways their solution was to sell the house and move to one with a concrete pool.
@@skaughtsmith firstly a fiberglass wont fold, it MAY pop out of the ground but wont fold, the black marks were it just needing to be refinished....idk what the problem was with the companies they called but its really not that big of a deal to fix.

You never pay the contractor up front. It’s amazing. These people are giving so much money upfront to someone they don’t know.
As a good and legal contractor, I raised my upfront to 50% down. WHy? Because people are now professional scumbags that believe they are entitled to everything for free. Look at the retail theft, its out of control. Yeah sorry, that you never pay contractor up front nonsense is gone like the wind
Dumb idea to pay all of it for sure, but pretty much most construction/masonry jobs are going to require around half the cost up front or they wont even start the job or order the supplies needed.
@@someone-ji2zb As a contractor, I 100% agree with this comment
@@someone-ji2zb in a high demand economy, maybe.. the way you get around that is you either place the money with a notary to be released with BOTH signatures, yours and theirs. or as job progress continues. there are ways. But shoddy work that won't pass inspection won't show until completion.

Yeah...makes me ponder who the dumb ones in this story truly are!! lol You're so correct!!
Time to check the books for theft of money!
You can give money if they are recommended to you and are buying material. Another option is upon their arrival on the first day on the job.
@@anthonyrodrigues5032I would never give anymore money to buy materials for me, ask what is needed, buy them yourself. Cowboy builders can easily buy cheap shit and pocket the rest of the money.
This episode was so hilarious I didn't even think I was watching a news channel. Keep it up LOL
He kept rubbing his nipples like the cable company on south park...
This is real journalism 😂
Seriously! 🤣🤣🤣
I would watch the news if it were like this 😂
Cool ass reporter knocking on his car window with the shades and suit looking like a mob boss. I love this shit!
I’m sure Brandon furiously worked his nipples into a frenzy once this aired.
As someone who has been swimming before I can confirm with absolute certainty that those were in fact, unfinished swimming pools. . . And given my unique life skillset of being financially impoverished I cannot understand why anybody would pay for the pool entirely upfront.
Who are You, Who are so Wise in the Ways of Science?
Thank you for that invaluable insight. 😂
You're the man. The Internut thanks you.
man OP me and you have so much in common wanna be friends?
Brandon would have been drowning in one of those. If I paid him $81,000 and he got me
😂😂😂😂
Excactly This guy needs some "persuading"😁
@@Jaja22300 😂😂😂😂
legit
Obviously, he has been dealing with genuine law abiding citizens.Based on what I have seen in that country, people normally shoot people for less than that!
I've never seen so much anger from a local news station that they spent 8 minutes straight of brutally destroying a guy
This reporter is awesome! Give this man a raise. Better yet, take it from Brandon!
All he had to do was hire/partner wither an actual contractor to do the job for a lower rate and pocket the difference. Instead, he was trying to steal all the money from customers. He deserves a long prison sentence.
This guy (the presenter) loves what he does. Even puts in the perfect dad joke at the end. What amazing content actually 😂
I like it 👌
