"A man accused of swindling veterans of their retirement and disability benefits for more than 7 years has been ordered to stop engaging in illegal pension poaching and told to pay $1 as part of a settlement.
Federal law prohibits agreements under which another person acquires the right to receive a veteran’s pension payments, the bureau’s consent order notes.
The consent order said Corbett tried to bypass the law by telling veterans that “this is not a loan, you are selling a product for a set price.”
The bureau found that Corbett’s acts were deceptive, unfair and likely caused “substantial injury;” however, it only handed him a monetary penalty of just $1.
The bureau said Corbett was unable to pay more based on sworn financial statements that he provided and his ongoing cooperation with the agency’s investigation into illegal pension poaching."
"It was not immediately clear if the bureau’s order would affect the federal lawsuit."
So the feds are going to let this scumbag get away with scamming vets for years, taking their money, so he can help identify others he scammed...for what, just to find out who he f*ed yet who he will not have to pay back either?!
Man who repeatedly scammed veterans out of retirement, disability pay fined $1: report
