Another scam by Brandon Ackerman
So it appears that resident repeat scammer Brandon Ackerman is at it again, this time in a deal attempting to fraud Doug Markwith he tricked a performer named Keilani Kita into allowing him to use her PayPal account for a transaction. He paid her $50 on a $1000 money transfer and then after receiving the funds and failing to comply and provide on the deal left Keilani with the full $1000 removed from her account and making no efforts or intent to repay her. We contacted up Doug and he had no idea that Brandon had been using someone elses account and we don't fault him at all for attempting to recover funds from PayPal and of course you should never let someone else use your accounts so it's a lesson learned but I'm shocked that this known shyster is still being able to trick people, both by attempting to sell content he has no license for or straight up bait and switch leaving others holding the bag for the loss.
We're helping her now go through the process of filing the police reports but since the last address on file is his mothers repossessed home in Virginia any likelihood of actually being able to collect is low. Though hopefully he will face justice soon enough.
We had recently also heard of Brandon attempting to reach out to a number of small producers claiming that he was going to pay them for referrals or content shot, these people obviously also never actually received their promised payouts.
So consider this yet another warning that any deal with the self proclaimed "porn king" Ackerman is never going to go in your favor.
If any others have been affected by Brandon and would have interest in collaborating with a class action lawsuit, feel free to reach out to me directly with any details as we continue to collect information to be able to hit him as hard as possible.
