RE: Rob Hoffman.
(Former moderator at No BS Photo Success.)
Rob Hoffman was associated with us through 2005 onto
2006 as a key member and moderator of our forum. Some of our members
started to get suspicious and started looking into certain claims that
Rob made. Namely, they looked into his alleged studio. His business
address and license. His former wife who apparently was killed along
with his parents by a drunk driver. His terminal illnes with cancer.
His 3.8 million dollar home in San Diego. And more.... turns out it
was all made up. Plus, as it turns out from all the research and digging,
that he has a long history with the law, and has managed to steal his
way through the lives of many woman. A former girlfriend, as well as
his former employer, says he is not to be trusted. He will steal, and
lie, and resort to anything to make things go his way. They also say
that his favorite method of operation is through the conning of innocent
woman, and employers and associates.

This information was emailed to us awhile ago
from his old boss, Mr. Feldman. We have been in contact with him on
several occassions
and he informs us that there is more information he will provide.
From his old boss, Mr Feldman:
"Rob is a professional thief and con man. He stole over $30,000 from my studio and a large amount from one other studio that I am aware of.During Christmas one year he did the same at a local gift store by stealing all their incoming checks and lots of cash. They were found by the police in his trailer in Tampa, Florida. He robbed his father until he was close to bankruptsy. He raped a girl in one of our northern states and has stolen many tens of
see full rez file.
thousands of dollars from unsuspecting women who he promised to marry. I know of at least five myself.,He has stolen cars and even a dog from one of his "fiancees" in California. Rob Hoffman should be in jail as a professional thief. If you were taken in by him do not feel alone...."Mr Feldman's email reply when aksed about the integrity of Rob Hoffman.
(Rob Hoffman told all of us that his parents were deceased)
had written, this was sent to us via email.
We have blotted out their names for their privacy
old boss Howard Bossworth
Owner of Colorrich Lab in Sandiego.
This was also sent to us via email, but he have had direct contact with Howard on many occasions now.
Let's not forgot all the stuff he spewed
out on the forums, all the facts of his life, professions, and relationships.
This was the person he made himself out to be, all his lies that he
needed to tell to make people feel sorry for him so that he could look
like he is a very sucessfull businessman.
Let's just cap off a few of them.
No 2 ½ million dollar studio in San Diego
No dead wife
No dead parents
No spent inheritance
No living on the streets in San Diego
No saving grace from the Salvation Army (he was actually kicked out for
missbehaviour)
No 20 % of income donated to the Salvation Army
No fiancé – Kelly
No 2 million dollar marital home
No Porsche
No rich clients
NO CANCER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No ¼ million dollar surgery in April 2006 (because that was the
only date the surgeon was available).
No miraculous recovery from (what was described as) terminal cancer
Etc, etc, etc., etc., etc.!!!!!!!
Our
Favorite is his dead wife Lori, we think this one takes the cake.
"This was posted by Rob H on the original community."
"Lori died right after Christmas, and that year we had an ongoing
joke between us and how I carried myself in my everyday life. At the time
the WWJD bracelets were at the height of their popularity---the "What
Would Jesus Do?" bracelets. Well, our joke was that if I were to
wear one it would be WWLD, "What Would Lori Do?", of course
not comparing her in any way---but more making sure I was just a proper
husband every day. So that Christmas, she got me an ID bracelet with my
initials on the outside, and the inside engraved "WWLD". So,
to this day, I do what I can to make her proud, and being successful,
not necessarily in the financial sense, but as a person and in what I
can share about what I do well, that's all a part of it.
Thanks so much for your kind words, and you're right,
I am happy in many ways today."
This was emailed to us, turns out that her name is not even Lori, she
was not even in a relationship with Rob,
he must have swiped the image from her website and manipulated it.
He even change the color of her sweater, flipped it horizontal, and ADDED
the engagement ring.
(we never discredited his photoshop skills.)
The whole "cancer" thing we figure was a complete lie also,
too many things just didn't add up, and we have been told that he uses
this tactic alot.
For us, he was supposed to co-host a seminar in the DR, but had to cancel
as he was going for surgery the week before.
He did come to Vegas to speak, again this was the same month that he
was going for surgery on his back. He must have been pretty hopped up
on goofballs to be jumping around like this weeks before his surgery.
