I got contacted by scott radin as I replied to the ad he placed on bizbuysell. I have been interested in getting into the commercial brokerage business in South Florida.
After several days, he started to be very pushy telling me that we needed to move on asap otherwise he would find someone else.
I called him and we went over a couple of issues I had regarding the agreement he wanted me to sign.The deal sounded too good to be true and I became concerned about making that investment.
So I went online and ran into the report that someone had left a few years ago on this website. The person was complaining that the business is a total scam and showed the evidences that she had against him.
Therefore, I decided to walk out of the deal and texted Radin accordingly. He texted back to me saying that i was a moron, that I must have voted for Hilary, that i was an immigrant that should know how to speak English using the F word, threathening me, etc, etc..
I have kept those text messages just in case I need to display them online or show them to a legal counsel .
His reaction to my decision is obviously not the one of a serious business broker or business person. He got very mad because i found out about his scam.
I truly wish to thank the person that left that great report online as I saved myself $18,500 today.
I have a lot to say about slick Scott Radin and his business practices. He runs his operation under many different business names. He does this so that people cannot research him. The many names he operates under include A.S. Radin & Associates, North American Alliance of Business Brokers, NAABB, Envoyz, Envoy Virtual Solutions, Global Alliance of Business Intermediaries, and Belladonna Business Partners. He hides behind Belladonna saying that it is a woman owned company.
The so-called owners are Sarah Odien and Bethaney Bryant. One is his daughter who has no business experience at all. Her only experience is social media and that is mediocre at best. The other is noticeably young and that speaks volumes. Ask what their experience is in! Have either ever sold a business? Have either trained a broker? Make him show proof.
What he does, is take your money up front, train you, promises the world, and then abandons you. Now ask yourself, if one were as successful as he claims, why does he keep hiding behind new names? If you do not cough up the big bucks, he berates you. Read previous posts on this guy regarding that.
I was a broker who he scammed. Luckily, I am smart enough that I am doing well on my own. But no thanks to him. When I was trained, he promised marketing and a mobile app. It was there for a while, then everything crumbled. He provided nothing. I have talked to other brokers who are suing him. Everyone is in agreement. The training was good, but the promises were empty. When they reach out to him, they get no reply.
Before you sink any money into this guy, ask for proof. Make sure to ask for references. But he will tell you that it is illegal to give references. That is so false. He just says that because nobody will give him a positive reference. When I was with him, he was blackballed by the businesses-for-sale listing sites. His reputation is speaking for itself. BEWARE. Do your research. Do not fall victim to his smooth talking. Take your money elsewhere!
This is just a followup to this guy. Now he has formed a new name. Belladonna Business. He claims it to be a woman run business. He uses his daughter, Sarah Odien. She is not a business broker, it is really all him. He will anything to hide from people knowing his scamming business practices. He takes your money but does not deliver.
He will claim he can't give references. It is because he has scammed everyone and nobody will give a good reference. If you are going to be foolish enough to throw your money away, make him first prove what he will/can provide. Because it will be nothing.
