Met someone in a store and started texting. he claims to manage some businesses and hold a one billion U.S. dollar bond. Already caught him lying saying he owns a company that owns his $750K house. Public records show it is owned by an individual. When called on that he claims it is a trusted friend that wanted a tax benefit. He said he’s lived there 15 yrs but there’s been 4-5 owners and I said and all were trusted friends? That one he didn’t respond too. He was offering boat storage to me on the property which caused me to look up the owner but I was curious about a billion dollar bond? Do individuals get those?
Con man?

Is his name Jose Diaz, the sociopathic guy who claims to be a doctor ?

Not Diaz...but he claimed to be an expert in geo-thermal and I texted ‘you can’t even spell geothermal.” He responded when he was a university instructor/researcher it was hyphenated.

There are no billion dollar bonds. I think the largest is like $5 million.
I guess he could mean a surety bond--this is insurance--but that would mean he's saying like a 10million premium on it, which seems hardly likely if he lives in a 750k house.
He sounds insane, actually.

I actually emailed a P.I. He said he was from Indiana originally. he talked of two prior relationships who are both dead! One got rear ended in their BMW X5 and he said it was because of the type of tires that don’t skid? He said he wanted the tires changed but the ex wouldn’t. i have a work address of his too where I saw him once locking up and he introduced me to a coworker. the weird part is that the legal home owner shows as a 69 yr old woman formerly of CA. he said his trusted friend wanted a tax benefit and she is a executive V.P. At Chase bank. Well I found a woman 58 with the same name in Columbus OH (where he used to live too) who is a VP at chase there. he said he keeps friends boats on his property (back yard) and I would have night vision security camera access 24/7. He wanted $20 a month. My dad is a former lawyer who said “possession is 9/10ths of the law.

Run from him, Op.
On the subject of con men, my brother worked until recently at the top of a property management firm. It managed the property for a major hotel chain, plus.
They were approached by a gay guy, it happens, who said he wanted to buy something big, and expected to be flown around the country free to see property. (Why would they do that?). So, he turned out to be a very young, 20s, con man. My bro knew, but his co-workers fell completely for it.

I never believed a word which is why I checked thru county records and intelius.com which has public records (much for free). I’m traveling on vacation in his town. I’m was curious what he would say when I confronted his lies. I think some compulsive and/or pathological liars believe their lies. My dad taught me that you can’t really trust people. he wrote that “there are a large number of people that trust their life and livelihood to my judgement. you operate on a different level.”

Some people are compulsive liars. I was at a cocktail party once in Tallahassee, Fl, where this young guy (whom I recognized immediately as a member of the FSU student body), tried to tell me that he was actually a Hollywood producer. When my "oh, uh huh" failed to get the desired response, he upped the story to tell me about all the international block busters he had had something to do with. I can't tell from your story whether the guy is a run-of-the-mill conman or just a compulsive liar. Run away in either case...

Please carry pepper spray or something with you. I'm afraid for your life. He could get angry being exposed by you and you never know what he's capable of. Please take care of yourself and always let someone know where and who you're meeting with.
Don't give him a cent.
And as you have found out for yourself, he's a liar, cannot be trusted. So DON'T be involved in anything with him.

Op here. The guy said to me the first time I met him, Bill Gates doesnt have air conditioning. I’m from Seattle and weirdly grew up very near where Gates lives now (which I did not tell the con man) and know you would want ac from being on a hill with afternoon and evening sun hitting the house. later I texted him an article which specifically talked about Gates high tech “air conditioning.” The guy wrote back he didn’t know why I sent it cuz it confirmed what he said and Gates house had a heat pump not AC which denotes a compressor. I wrote back that the article did not mention any heat pump. at some point the guy claimed he was at Gates house 3 times for functions. con guy wrote back saying it mentioned geo-thermal (misspelled) and that is one of his areas of expertise. All the article said was the home was partially underground built into a hill. I regret calling him out now and this has really affected me and I’ve never contacted a private investigator.

OP he sounds like a pathological liar. A con man would be more savvy. I once worked with a guy who lied consistently. It started with things like college or that he owned a vacation home on cape cod. When he tried to tell me he helped invent Tai Bo I knew he was off the rails.

Let me tell you what your mistake is.
DON'T confront people like this. You never know how they're going to act if they are challenged. If you're curious about how psychos react when they are confronted, there are myriad psychological journals with free articles that you can read online.
When you encounter people like this, you want them out of your life ASAP. They only cause problems. Punch and delete.

At this point I’m done unless he contacts me from another number or worse in person but he can’t drive in where I’m staying as it’s gated with a 24 hr guard. The lesson don’t give too much info to a stranger. I’ve one week left then I leave the state. If the P.I. says he’s dangerous I’ll leave early.

Confronting him means continuing to communicate with him. He will want to explain away what you point out to be falsehoods. Again and again and again. Do you think he’ll change or that the two of you will build a relationship based on trust from here on in? There’s nothing there for you. Just stop responding and move on.

Lesson learned but the p.i. Never called me from fill8ng out an online form. he approached me in the store and I’m younger and considered very attractive...he had a pot belly and I was actually interested in the boat storage...I even drove by the home to see if 5here were boats in the backyard and there were.
