According to Norton Safeweb, the Annuity Sold website is full of 3 baseball lineup cards of malicious java scripts, 27 malicious java scripts in all. Considering that we reported about this 10 months ago and that Annuty Sold leadership has shown no consideration for cleaning flaws identified by a reputable third party site like Norton,  this raises some safety concerns about visiting the Annuity Sold website.

Mind the “Bottom of The Barrel”

Last year AnnuitySold sent legal papers through a process server that were used in an attempt to scam Google. Richart Ruddie, an Owings Mills native who is associated with AnnuitySold, RIR1984 LLC and JRR Funding, is subject to investigation by the United States Attorney in Rhode Island.  All hell began to break loose late summer 2016.

On June 23, 2017 Public Citizen blog cites “the main model employed by Richart Ruddie in such cases as Patel v. Chan and Smith v. Garcia. In some of these cases, the suits were filed pro se, with the signature of the plaintiff forged as well as that of the defendant; in others, such as Smith v. Levin, the presence of a corporate plaintiff made pro se filing impossible, so Ruddie had to recruit a lawyer who was either clueless and desperate for business, or venal and desperate for business, to file a fake consent decree. This fraudulent scheme was so egregious that Ruddie is facing a possible federal prosecution; his agreement to a humiliating and expensive settlement in Smith v. Garcia was hastened by his effort to gain lenient treatment from the prosecutor”.

Here is a June 8, 2017 legal filing in Broward County which refers to Richart Ruddie as a “fraudster”. Also see  April 13, 2017  Download RI Judge Smith Sanctions Order re Richart Ruddie.

Other case documents tie in JRR Funding LLC,  another company associated with Richart Ruddie and Ryan Blank Download Dec 24 2014 Document Re JRR Funding LLC Exhibit to Myvesta Amicus Brief-see #4.  Ryan Blank is listed as the company director on the JRR Funding website.

Commentary Re Ruddie/Blank and JRR Funding ties to Einstein Structured Settlements. The shenanigans associated with the Owings MIlls lads have been up to is well documented for almost 5 years.
