Linda Modlinski - Senior Vice President, Minnesota Association of REALTORS®
On behalf of the Minnesota Association of REALTORS® I would like to offer our sincere appreciation for the exceptional
job you did last Thursday at the education conference for our members. We are still continuing to receive calls
thanking us for the program and bringing your message to them. Mortgage fraud issues are on the rise and you
helped many agents understand how easy it is to get caught up in these illegal and fraudulent activities. Your
message also clearly identified the implications that went along with engaging in these types of activities, including the
personal loss of family. friends, business, respect and reputation just to mention a few. Thank you for sharing your
story to help others make better choices!
Greg Strohm - Regional Director of Quality, Stewart Title Guaranty Company
Your personal stories and your message captured and entertained the audiences at two of our biggest corporate
events of the year. You really drove home how seemingly innocent rationalizations can land us in big trouble -
especially those of us entrusted with "other people's money."
Randall S. Bueter, Esq. - Real Estate Section Chair, Arkansas State Bar Association
I thought your talk was very informative and entertaining at this year's Arkansas State Bar Association's Annual
Conference. Having been to many a CLE convention, I could tell you really connected with the crowd and held their
interest. You may use me as a positive reference any time you wish.
Mark Luttrell – Chairman, California Society of Certified Public Accountants (CPA - Litigation Section Steering
Committee)
I wanted to thank you for one of the most enlightening and interesting presentations I have heard in years. You did a
wonderful job and our members had overwhelming positive feedback.
Christina F. Taylor, Esq. - Florida Training and Publications Director, LandAmerica Financial Group
Jerome Mayne’s story is compelling and real. As the director of training for our agents throughout the state of Florida, it
is challenging to find a topic that is practical, a speaker who is believable and a message that endures. Jerome meets
all of these - and then some! It was truly a pleasure working with Jerome and we are proud to have featured him as a
guest speaker for our training seminars.
Fred Pasteur - President, Middle Tennessee Chapter, Association of Certified Fraud Examiners
It was a pleasure having you at our conference. Your message was well received by the attendees; mainly because
you not only "talked the talk", but you've also "walked the walk." Feel free to use our chapter as a reference for any
future speaking engagements you have.
Larry Ruder - Fraud Risk Management, Wells Fargo Home Mortgage
The staff found your presentation very compelling. I still believe this is the message our production folks need to hear
about.
Joseph C. Wells, CFE, CPA - Chairman of the Board, Association of Certified Fraud Examiners
I wanted to send a short note to express my appreciation for you participating in the ACFE's 17th Annual Fraud
Conference in Las Vegas. In addition to record attendance, many, many participants told me that this was our best
event ever. This was made possible only by our staff and by volunteers like you. Thank you so much for all you've
done. We hope to see you again next year in Orlando.
Lee Kaplan and Deborah Nells-Porter, Director - October Research October Seminars
On behalf of October Seminars, we'd like to thank you for being a panelist on our recent Mortgage Radio Show,
"Detecting and Combating Mortgage Fraud." Your participation enhanced the success of the show, which was one of
our highest attended shows to date! We wish you luck in your endeavors to educate industry professionals on the
consequences of fraud and look forward to working with you in the future.
Lisa Bryant - Program Marketing Communications, Women Venture
Saying "thank you" to you just doesn't seem to effectively tell you how much we at WomenVenture appreciate your taking
the time from you busy day to participate as a volunteer presenter at our Polish Your Pitch half-day seminar. The
responses from all those who attended - guests, volunteers as well as the day's presenters - have been
overwhelmingly positive.
Teresa Grove – VP Marketing and Predictive Methods Conference Coordinator, First American Residential
Chilling. Your message was exactly what our people needed to hear.
Chuck Abramson - Sales Manager, Coldwell Banker Burnet Realty
The feedback we received was incredible. I've never seen the room so quiet and attentive in any other presentation.
You've created an awareness here we probably wouldn't have achieved without you. It really got everyone thinking and
much more aware of what can happen if you choose to ignore the red flags that you thought were someone else's
problem. I know you made a huge difference in the way agents will look at transactions from here on out. Word of your
excellent presentation is spreading throughout our company.
Joanna Belanger, CSEO - President - Orange County Escrow Association
Thank you so much for speaking at our Orange County Escrow Association Dinner Meeting. Your riveting and insightful
presentation on the Consequences of Fraud was very well received.
Daniel C. Diaddigo - President, the Jarvis Street Group - Co-Founder, Georgia Real Estate Fraud Coalition - Author,
"The Truth About Lies."
Jerome’s story is ripped from the pages of mortgage loan production shops all over the country. His message is at the
same time entertaining and tragic. I recommend Jerome to any company that is serious about stamping out mortgage
fraud.
Sheri Murrah - Fannie Mae
Thank you for attending the e-Business Forum and participating on the panel discussion, "Mortgage Fraud: The Silent
But Serious Issue". The feedback thus far has been tremendous from this panel session and in large part that was
due to you sharing your story with the audience. Thank you again for contributing to the success of the Fannie Mae
eBusiness Forum!
John Snell - Dallas/Fort Worth Association of Mortgage Brokers - President, Integra Mortgage
The feedback I have received was overwhelmingly positive. When you started talking about the concurrent time lines it
was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Jan Grant – Executive Director - Escrow Association of Washington
The presentation was outstanding and received the highest marks on the critiques from our attendees. What I
personally liked about the presentation was that it was heartfelt and personal, and I believe that many in the audience
could see themselves being drawn into a similar situation if not vigilant and willing to stand their ground.
Christopher Spaker - President, Mortgage Bankers Association of New York - Genesee Region
All the feedback I received was very positive. I looked around the room as you spoke and every single eye was on you
the entire time. I felt you easily could have gone another hour and still kept their interest. I also asked my board of
directors last week what they thought and everyone who attended agreed it was well worth the time and money
investment to bring you in. In fact, we talked about bringing you back next year sometime to speak again. That in itself
is a huge testament to your message. Thanks again for everything. You’re a true professional and you were a real
pleasure to work with. I hope to have that opportunity again. I wish you the best in all your future endeavors. Please
feel free to use me as a reference if needed.
Deborah James - Senior Vice President, Flag Bank
The feedback I've received has been very good. Several folks said they could have listened to you talk for two more
hours. Many of us have already read your book and really enjoyed it. Everything you say in your book and what you had
to say to our group, really caught everyone's attention.
Mike Zwerner – Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, Interthinx Corporation – leader in fraud
detection technology
I have been extremely pleased with our relationship over this past year. We have had great reviews from all of our
clients who have seen you. Your presentation and story on the true life consequences of fraud has definitely made an
impact. The quality of your presentation and your professionalism are the reasons we hope to work with you well into
the future.
Michael Palmer – Vice President, Nova Home Loans
On behalf of Nova Home Loans it was a privilege to have you visit and share your experience with us. I did not learn
what I thought I might learn about from you; we had expectations that you would come and teach us about the latest
tricks, traps and techniques of loan fraud. What I got instead, was a lesson in ethical values, and an appreciation for
the personal misfortune that a person experiences by making wrong choices. You made clear to me that loan fraud is
a symptom of distorted ethical values. That lesson will still be there in my mind long after the current trends are
obsolete. You also made clear that the price paid could not possibly compare to the potential ill gotten gain. Both
more enduring lessons, I think, than just what’s going on around us right now. The audience empathized as they
listened to you talk about the damage in your life, I think you got through to us.
Elizabeth Emmons - Mortgage Banker, First Commonwealth Mortgage
Thank you for telling your story. It really hit home with a lot of us. You have a lot of dignity for being able to tell what you
did and I think you should be commended.
Peter Spalthoff – Executive Director, Connecticut Society of Mortgage Brokers
Jerome, it was a real pleasure meeting you. Your presentation put the human touch on the perils of "fraud" in our
industry. Your experiences are those that I am sure many of our Brokers today still come across. I hope that your
message about the cost of fraud committed by a Broker is far greater than the rewards and that at least those in your
audience who heard you can now relate to those costs. Thanks again.
Jeffrey L. Zeltzer - Executive Director, National Home Equity Mortgage Association
Thanks again for all your support and assistance in making the NHEMA Western States Mortgage Conference and
Mortgage Fraud Workshop an overwhelming success. Our association and the attendees of this conference gained
valuable information and we appreciate your generous contribution of time and energy in making this program such a
triumph. Thanks again for your support and interest.
William L. Armstrong, III - Colorado Mortgage Lenders Association
Great job last week at the CMLA luncheon. We've heard nothing but positive feedback.
Carl Jones - President, Minneapolis-University Rotary Club
I just wanted to add my personal thank you for addressing the University Rotary Club. Our members truly enjoyed
hearing about your experiences and how each of us needs to keep a very strong eye on the ethics of our work and
relationships. Certainly your remarks tie very nicely to a Rotary Cornerstone called the Four-Way Test. I hope you will
carry the four-way medallion with you and use it as an example of how organizations are focusing on ethics. Please
feel free to visit us anytime, you will be welcome.
John B. Norman – Executive Director/General Counsel, Utah Mortgage Lenders Association
Thank you for attending our conference Sept. 8th. It was great to have you. Your presentation was riveting. You painted
a very vivid picture that will stay with me & every attendee for a long time. Your talk is of immense worth to our industry.
Thank you.
Marve Stockert - Executive Director, Illinois Association of Mortgage Brokers
Thank you for helping us make the 15th Annual Fall Conference and Commercial Symposium held at the Phoenix Run

knowledge enabled us to host the most successful conference ever.

We enjoyed your presentation and I trust that our loan officers learned a valuable lesson. Thanks for coming and
making an interesting and inspiring talk.
Rick and Shelly Akatyszewski - SRA Mortgage (ComUnity Branch of Hollis, NH)
Thanks so much for the training in Vegas. You are a good man. We need more people like you in this world to share
the info you do so that we all understand and know why not to do the things we shouldn't. We loved your definition of
fraud. Any chance you could e-mail it back to us? And again thanks for all you give.
Jayson A. Stebbins - Sr. Vice President, ComUnity Lending, Inc.
I want to say Thank You on behalf of Leadership here at ComUnity Lending and on behalf of our Retail Support Team.
You were a wonderful addition to our meeting, and I believe your story will help us be a better company. Your
presentation was fluid, on point, and pitch perfect. We are so glad we called and invited you into our Annual Meeting.
Thank you so much and please be sure to include us in your "endorsement" section or as a reference for anyone who
might like to hear you speak.
Michael J. Williams – Fannie Mae
I would like to personally thank you for speaking at the 2004 Fannie Mae e-Business Forum. Thanks to your
participation, our program this year was diverse in subject matter and rich in content. The feedback we have received
so far has been extremely positive and complimentary. I believe this was the best Forum ever. Thank you again for
making this year's event a success and I look forward to seeing you at the next eBusiness Forum. Thank you, again,
for making this year’s event a success and I look forward to seeing you at the next e-Business Forum.
Beverly Wender – Interfirst – ABNAMRO
Your seminar was very well received and most were quite amazed by your compelling story. The message is clear and
my team will communicate it out to our industry. We appreciate what you are doing to help "clean up" this industry and
spread the word.
Terry W. Clemens - Executive Director and Susan Cataldo - NCRA Conference Chairperson,
National Credit Reporting Association
On behalf of NCRA's board of directors, staff and members, we wish to extend a sincere "Thank You" and our deepest
appreciation for your presentation at our recent 12th Annual National Conference at the Omni Tucson National Golf
Resort & Spa. Your message on Mortgage Fraud was well received and your input was valuable to our members.
Thank you again for speaking to the members of the National Credit Reporting Association.
Deborah Rose Allaben – Account Executive, United Guaranty Residential Ins. Company, Member – Indiana MBA
Jerome gave a great testimonial. Most of the audience was management and everyone felt [that] every loan officer
should hear him speak. His presentation along with some of our Fraud information would be very powerful. I would
definitely recommend it to National Accounts for National Sales meetings.
Michelle Heine – Excel Title
I thought that the presentation brought home the reality of turning a blind eye to unethical business practice. Our staff
thought that the presentation was both informative and fascinating. Our staff also said that they could have listened to
you all day.
Kathy Cheney – MN Department of Revenue, Withholding Division
I was looking for speakers for our off-site training meeting. I heard about Jerome through a friend who had just
attended one of Jerome's presentations on Fraud. Jerome sounded like a very interesting speaker and the topic was
intriguing. So, I went for it even though I knew the cost may be well over budget. Jerome's presentation was
humorous, real, and a bit scary to think something like this could possibly happen to anyone.
