This is a Facebook conversation I had with someone who message me after a post warning others about David Bilbrey.

Hey man, I saw your comment about David Bilbrey on a for sale post of his. Is there someone specific I should call regarding his scams?

Did he do work on your house?
Keith
No, he got me before he started Surably. He “bought” my landscaping company on installments ,made 2 payments and then sold all my equipment and ghosted. I tried to sue, but he fled state for a while and we couldn’t track him down. He owes us $25k, but I know I’ll never get it. If it would help for me to testify on something, I would.
Keith
This was back in 2016 though. I’ve kept tabs on him periodically since then.

Four seasons landscape?
Keith
I don’t remember for sure what his company was called, something creek I think?
You sent
His was creekside. What was your landscape company called that he purchased?
Keith
Yeh, that’s right. My company was Suttle Lawn Care.
You sent
What city and state are you?
Keith
Cottontown, Tn but we lived in Springfield tn when that took place.
You sent
Bilbrey has a massive wrap sheet. Conning people for over 10 years. We are working on sending him to jail
Keith
Yeh, we were really young at the time, and it really hurt us. If I can help prevent that for someone else, I will. The saddest part is that he has 3 or 4 nice kids.
Keith
But I don’t think any of them stay with him.
You sent
Someone just won a judgement of 1 million against him
Keith
I saw that he filed chapter 11 bankruptcy last year.
You sent
I’ve only met 1 kid. I think his ex wife is in Lebanon
You sent
Yeah he filed BK so he can’t do it again. He has actually filed 3 times over the years. He won’t be able to do it again. It’s a pattern of fraud
Keith
Yeh, his first wife is in TN and older kids, his second wife and their son are in Florida I think.
You sent
Pam is here in Murfreesboro now. I think she got in trouble in FL
Keith
Huh. The whole situation is crazy. Is there a class action in the works or is there a detective I should call to give testimony?
You sent
Did you file a police report or take him to court?
Keith
I had a pretty crappy lawyer at the time. I don’t believe I did either. I still have all my purchase agreement documents and did file a lawsuit, but because Rutherford county and the private investigator could never find him, I don’t think he was ever served. I eventually let it go, because we didn’t have the money to fuel it.
You sent
Send me your name and number, and I will forward it to the prosecutor. The amount of people and money is insane
Keith
Keith Suttle 615-xxx-xxxx I hate to hear that he’s gotten so many people.
You sent
Yeah, hundreds at this point
You sent
I just wonder where all this money is going.
Keith
Probably just beer and all his Florida trips lol. He for sure isn’t a family man, and doesn’t own anything. Well, pass my info on to the prosecutor, and thanks for working on this.
You sent
Yeah definitely. The more people we get to testify the stronger case we get against him
You sent
If you know anyone else, please have them contact me
Keith
I don’t know of anyone else, but if I hear of anyone, I’ll share your name with them.
You sent
Thanks. Hope things are better for you and your family.
Keith
Thanks man. We simplified our life and eventually recovered. Hard lesson to learn, but I have shared it with a lot of people.
