Hi everyone.
Does anyone know anything about a James White who supposedly leases East Texas properties? He sends contracts under the name of Texas Veterans Hunting or something like it. We paid 1/2 our lease and sent our contracts. Now, no contact whatsoever. He won’t respond to emails, texts or phone calls. Dead silence. I tried to protect us, but feel like I’ve really failed. If anyone has any knowledge or experience with this person, I would great appreciate input. Thank you all so much.

Very sorry to hear you (probably) got taken. The name of the company sounds a little "spot-on" to be a scam. And "James White" sounds like it's not real either. You didn't fail if he's (they're) a low-life meth-head con artist. Don't beat yourself up, but do try to find the bastard. Methinks he might need a little east Texas justice if he's low enough to try to con veterans.

Maybe have a conversation with the local game warden. And a county district attorney's office.

How did you come to contact James White? Did you meet him face to face? Did you look at the lease in person? How did you pay him?

you should have a friend/s contact him to sign up
offer to meet up so you can see property and give him cash deposit on the spot
you show up with the friend, take pics of him, drivers license, truck , tags
call the sheriff then have your way with him....
or call after you give him a little scare

Why are people only willing to send PM's about this? Same w/that Facebook post, only PM's. Post up what y'all know if this is a scam & maybe save others in the future.

To protect against a libel lawsuit is my guess.

I can only speak for myself, but I don't know anything about this guy. I just sent a PM with advice based on past experience.
