On April 6th of 2018 I entered into agreement with Rolfe Auerbach of Brand in Entertainment to provide product placement for my upcoming feature film. Over the upcoming months Rolfe proposed a variety of companies that were supposedly interested in the project, having me write out scenerios of how the product(s) would be intergrated into my film.

Excuse after excuse, deadline after deadline passed, only to be given more excuses and deadlines. Part of the agreement was for Rolfe to provide a statement of work to show the companies that he had been incontact with for my film. After multiple request and deadline, Rolfe finally gave me a waterdowned email statement of work with a list of companies that he pulled out of the air.

None of the companies on the list were the companies that he asked me to draw up scenerios for. Rolfe is a scam artist, a con-man and preys on the vulnerabilities of those that have dreams of succeeding in holywood.

BRAND IN ENTERTAINMENT

As per the email, I too was conned exactly as detailed by Rolfe Auerbach. Having pestered me for the money - 3-4 times a day, insisting he had money to contract over. Once paid, I never heard from him unless I emailed him. BUT he would always ring for less than a minute to say he working around the clock!

Please for the love of God STAY CLEAR.

I have contacted producers, who will be investgating him and his company - that will surely stop him.

Our production recently made the mistake of trusting Rolfe Auerbach and Brand In Entertainment. He took funds up front based on promises of securing product placement deals that he claimed were already on the table, and not only did he not deliver one dollar in product placement securitization, but refused to return the up front fee that he contractually agreed to return if he was not successful. The production has struggled to cover final costs as a result and Rolfe Auerbach continues to either dodge phone calls, or make outlandish promises. Do NOT under any circumstances do business with this deceitful and disgusting snake oil salesman. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Against my better judgment, I hired Rolfe Auerbach to do product integration for my feature film, which we shot in January, 2018.

Rolfe VERY aggressively asks for up-front money, and we ended up paying him 10,000 dollars, but we included in our contract that if he had not closed any product placement deals for our film by January 15th (which was a week before filming was to begin), he was to return us the full 10K.

Well, Rolfe did not close any deals, and he did not return our money. It is now May 1st, we have still not been paid back, and he is in CLEAR breach of his contract. For the last month and a half, Rolfe has been saying he is "working on getting our money back to us", but has not done so. We have filed a small claim against him, as well as a second case for damages.

Whatever you do--filmmakers, DO NOT USE THIS GUY. He is a full criminal, and will take your money and you won't see it again.

You don't know how relieved I am to find out I am not alone here! It is now THREE years since Rolfe Auerbach conned me into a totally bogus branding arrangement for my web show - with absolutely zero return or accountability for any work he may have done. Like all professional con-men, he is totally aware of the legal system and manages to stall me on payment with every excuse in the book. Simultaneously he committed serious crime by stealing a significant amount of money from me. I am available to discuss this in person with other victims as I am preparing to go to the media with this story as well as all relevant producers guilds, SAG Aftra etc - to avoid him continuing his path of destruction. His wanton greed and lack of conscience regarding this fraud has had a devastating effect on my business and personal life.

Rolfe took a $5,000 refundable comission in order to deliver contracts on a TV show. He signed a deal memo to pay it back at the end of 30 days if the contracts didn't happen. At his urging, we extended the term by 180 days, as he was always saying the contracts were about to happen. They never did. We have been trying to get the money refunded for 60 days now and he has not paid, always telling us he will pay the next day. We will post an update to this report the minute he pays us back in full.

Concerned

I only wished we had seen these reports prior to transferring 15k over!!!!! Producers of the documentary ''The rise and fall of Harvey Weinstein'' (BBC2 production) would love these reports.

Rolfe Auerbach Is A Racist

If anyone want to do business with Mr. Auerbach, he's a racist son of a bitch. He is prejudice against people of color and doesn't deliver for people on financing for producers. He will give movie producers extensions and nothing happens. It's not recommended to ever do business with guy. A selfish minority hating son of a bitch. He called a black person the N word once.

If you are looking for someone to work hard for you, earn their money and make your production flush with product placement cash, look no further than anywhere but Brand-In Entertainment. Hiding behind the veil of Samuel B. Moses as the person you pay, Rolfe Auerbach will blow smoke into places that make you feel as if having it blown up your keister, would be a kindness.

He will throw names at you and say, "Do this work and I will submit it to them for review." "This Work" being - How you would showcase a product. And "I will submit it to them for review" being - I am keeping you busy so you don't keep calling me while I spend the money you gave me and I am not doing squat for you.

Ask for an email from the client - Nothing

Ask for the names of his Connections - Nothing

Ask for a copy of his submission - Nothing

But, God forbid you don't pony up cash on the barrelhead!

And I don't buy the "I'm an Ordained Baptist Minister story. Jesus never said, "Do unto others BEFORE they can do to you."

Stay away from this HACK!

I urge everyone to avoid this CON ARTIST

Just like everyone else and as everyone has stated about this man Rolfe and to avoid him. As he gives the same speech to everyone to draw them in about not being allowed to take commission due to his agreement with Rupert Murdock and Fox and that you have to pay him an upfront fee of $25,000 for him to get the product placement. As stated before by everyone as I do not want to repeat what everyone has said about him that is all true. He is a first and fore most a con artist that preys on people and has multiple lawsuits and cases filed against him. Thankfully though I did not fall for his tricks when I first met him at his "office" if you can call it that. Everything everyone has is true. AVOID THIS CON ARTIST AT ALL COST.

Talk off-line?

I'm currently in negotiations with Rolfe and he's said that your claim is a lie as you haven't given your name. Would you be willing to have a talk with me off-line about your experience with Brand In?
