We received this from reader Sweet Lil Nookie in the middle of August 2011:

Marcus Lavelle Ward is an African-American Male age 36, date of birth August 8, 1974 born in Tennessee, grew up in Chicago Heights, IL. He lives Chicago Heights, IL with his elderly mother Johnnie Ward who works at a local day care in Chicago Heights on Halsted St., and his 4 year old son Alexander Lavelle Ward. He graduated from Bloom Township High school and claims that he went to Harvard, he actually did not and has NO college degree. He claims to be a black belt in Kempo Karate, that is also untrue.

He has a 12 year old son who he has not seen in 11 years and owes more than $40,000 in child support payments to that child’s mother. He has also been in trouble with the law for countless domestic violence crimes over the years. He has been scamming people in all types of ways for more than 16 years. His scams include social security card scams, credit card scams, identity scams, and his latest real estate scam. He owns no real property, nor is he an entrepreneur. He seems charming at first, but it is all a facade. Most of the things that he says he gets straight out of movies, literally, I’m not joking….he uses lines from movies all the time.

There is no Lavelle Organization, it is a fictitious business that Marcus Lavelle Ward made up to con people. Any information you find on-line regarding such business was planted there by Marcus Lavelle Ward himself. Hope my information helped those of you who may happen to run into this person.

All we can say is WOW. We cannot vouch for any information that was submitted to us but we can say that this information is consistent with everything we’ve been able to assimilate on Lavelle to this point. If you know Lavelle or have been in contact with him at all.. the only thing we can say is BE CAREFUL. This person is likely not who he appears to be!!
