PRESS RELEASE Defendant: Ricardo O Gonzalez (9/20/1959) 177 Crest Drive Tarrytown, NY 10591... Subsequent to an Investigation, the below pictured defendant, Ricardo Gonzalez, a 59 year old male resident of Tarrytown, New York was arrested by Irvington Detectives and arraigned in four unrelated fraud cases. In all cases, the defendant misrepresented himself as a licensed real estate broker to renters of properties located in the Village of Irvington. The defendant utilized Hotpads.com Trulia.com Craigslist.org and Zillow.com to bypass MLS (Multiple Listing Service) to find potential victims. On April 1st, 2019 a 46 year old female, interested in an apartment rental on Main St, provided the defendant with a broker’s fee of $2300 and an application fee of $100. The victim subsequently learned the defendant is not a licensed broker and not entitled to those fees, but was able to rent the apartment from the owners. On April 23rd, 2019 a 26 year old female, interested in an apartment rental on N. Eckar St, provided the defendant with a broker’s fee of $1800. The victim subsequently learned that the defendant is not a licensed broker and not entitled to those fees but was able to rent the apartment from the owners. On July 18th, 2019 a 42 year old female, interested in an apartment rental on Main St, provided the defendant with a brokers/holding fee of $2200 and an application fee of $100. The victim did not get the rental apartment and when she requested the $2300 in fees to be returned, the defendant, provided her with a check which was denied because of insufficient funds with which the victim incurred additional fees. On July 26th, 2019 a 57 year old male, interested in the same apartment rental on Main St as the third victim, provided the defendant with a broker’s fee of $2300. The victim did not get the rental apartment and when he requested the $2300 in fees to be returned, the defendant refused to answer call, texts and emails. The investigation is ongoing and other potential victims are being asked to contact police if they feel that they were defrauded. This department is investigating a claim that undocumented immigrants have been defrauded by the defendant but are afraid to report the crimes to the police. The Irvington Police would like to stress to those victims that their status in the United States would not be of any concern nor will they even be asked their status. It is believed that the defendant operated in numerous jurisdictions throughout Westchester and victims should report any crimes to the police agency where the crimes occurred. The defendant was remanded to the Westchester County Jail on $15,000 cash bail or $50,000 bond. Any victims in Irvington are requested to call 914-591-8080 or come to the Irvington Police Department at 85 Main St Irvington, NY 10533
