Hello and thank you for reading my blog. I don't normally do these things. However, after going through everything I have experienced, I feel OBLIGATED to expose these horrible men so that you don't make the same mistake I did.
I want to use this page to coalesce all the data into one central blog which I can back link to so that the reader can easily follow this case.
Much has been written about spencer hoo/steve chen in regards to my situation. More can be read HERE
Since Steve Chen is a dubious man who hides behind aliases/LLCs/front men like Spencer Hoo, etc...it is hard to determine just what his mindset is. He ignores all calls, texts, certified letters, etc. You see, in the real word, when people have problems, they pick up the phone and work it out. In Steve Chen's world, he will not only ignore you when you reach out but he will try to abuse you in any way he can think of.
I, of course, do not wish to sue anyone or cause anyone any problems. However, after 600+ phone calls, texts, certified letters, etc it is becoming obvious that there is no way outside of suing him to get his attention.
Another unscrupulous player involved here is Travis Baron of
Remax Premier Realty
5299 Alton Pkwy
Irvine, CA 92604 (949) 371-5638

He was made aware of Spencer Hoo's unscrupulous dealings. Not only did he do absolutely nothing to reign in Spencer Hoo, he didn't even bat an eye at allegations up to and including Spencer Hoo approving of a CHILD MOLESTER being put into our community and then having said molester's rental SHOT FULL OF BULLETS in the middle of the night by the family of the victim. Shame on you TRAVIS BARON for allowing this man to victimize the public under your name.
I have now completely vacated the premises where I was being victimized by Steven Chen and Spencer Hoo (thank God). I am now prepared to begin a lengthy legal battle. The first case was filed yesterday. This case is going to prove that Steven Chen and/or Spencer Hoo MISAPPROPRIATED my money I paid into an agreed upon account setup by Chen for electricity at the property I leased from him. A week after my first payment, he moved the funds ($309.04) out of the account setup and into a segregated account that I could no longer access on September 5th, 2012. The new account setup for me by Chen did not have the funds and Steve Chen has not returned a phone call in almost two years since this began (CONSIDER THIS WHEN DECIDING TO DO ANYTHING WITH CHEN. HE IS A SLIPPERY CON ARTIST).
The case is filed in small claims court in Santa Ana California. Once it is proven that Chen took the money, we will then move to file a RETALIATORY EVICTION.
I will be updating this and including names of other potential accomplices/family members names. Chen likes to involve family in his dirty dealings. However, just ask yourself the following question: If Chen stole $309.04 and is going to this length to not pay it back, how hard will he work to screw you over in any deal that goes sour for a much MUCH higher amount? Do yourself a huge favor and stay far away from this guy.
