A Mid-South woman and her business partner said they were conned by a fake lawyer. Theyâre now warning others, so they donât become the next victim.
The woman said she became suspicious after the supposed âlawyerâ started lying about their court cases and asking for money orders.
After vetting him out, she said she found he had a lengthy criminal history and no documentation that he is a licensed lawyer.
FOX13Â canât identify the suspect because there is no legal documentation tying him to this current case.
âItâs absolutely ludicrous that heâs out here preying on people,â Tora Griffin of Marion, Ark. said.
When Griffin met a man at a family funeral who said he was an attorney, she said she had no reason to think he wasnât telling the truth.
âHe made it seem like he was only charging us for the filing fee for the acquired titles, and we had several properties that needed acquired titles,â she said.
Griffin and her business partner run…
