    Looks fake, or un-believable

    I can assure you that Jared is not the type of person to post something like this unwarranted. He's one of my ISO's and I just confirmed it with them over the phone as well.

    I would assume this is someone fairly new to Coconut Funding that doesn't know any better.

    2015 start date at Coconut according to LinkedIn... so this is likely embedded in company culture. Also telling that he CC'ed Jacob.

    Sounds like you work with some less than reputable shops then. At LoanMe we have a reputation for just how above board we are (some even say to our detriment), and backdooring is something that does not and will not happen with us.

    It's not. Father/son team of Jack and Rob Pearlman heading up the shop, with Rob being the son.

    This happens everywhere, even at reputable shops. It's done on the dl. How on earth is everyone at Loanme supposed to know if someone back doored one of your deals? It's not like someone comes in to work bragging they just funded a back doored deal.

    To me its always a red flag when a company rep says " nobody backdoors here". Its impossible to know and its rampant across the board. I used to label my bank statements in a discreet way and had my reps who i trusted at these funders be on the lookout for subs that come with my labeled statements so I have "busted" even the most reputable shops ( would customize the bank statemnt label for each sub and actually caused a few reps at certain shops to be relieved of their jobs).. But I no longer waste time being a detective as I saw how widespread it is . Of course when I find out with certainty its happening I limit my subs there unless despite the backdooring I am still converting alot with said funder. But no matter what you do security wise all it takes is one rogue employee to want to make alot of extra side money for the backdorring to happen. My advice is keep your focus on the shops that convert for you and dont just blast out every sub. Limiting the exposure will limit the backdooring.

    One rogue employee, one rogue merchant, one rogue broker.

    One thing I have noticed is that once a deal gets submitted anywhere, it will spread to others somehow.

    If I can recall, don't some funders have on their agreements the right to solicit after X amount of days?

    Another observation is the amount of employee turnaround shops have, I'm sure there can be a rogue individual as well.

    A "super" broker deal is also something to look at where you would assume a "backdoor" practice occurred.

    You had a rep that worked at multiple companies. Do you still allow that ?

    Rob is one of the biggest losers in this industry, it does not surprise me that he tried to steal data from a company.

    i like how his signature says "Dedicated to Excellence" yet they ask for backdoored files. Talk about practicing what you preach. Do better Rob Pearlman and Coconut Funding or just remove that phrase from your signature so you dont look like such a clown.

    I tried subbing to coconut.

    No offer for 2-3 days.

    Sold the deal elsewhere. 2 weeks later deal gets sent to debt consol lawyers. I requested it and the merchant showed me a group text where they referred him to a debt consol company. It is the mca space as a whole that is toxic.

    Golden State / Coconut Funding (stupid name) are the type of people you don't want in this industry. They've been around many years and always have the same reputation. A lot of us will probably get threatening private messages knowing them.
