AGENT ALERT: Suspicious Client
01/28/2008

A Gwinnett agent was holding an open house at 1056 Eagles Ridge Court in Whitehawk subdivision (off of Tab Roberts) in Lawrenceville on Sunday, Jan. 27 2008. A man showed up and told the agent that he had been in jail twice for raping real estate agents. Though she was scared, she was not physically harmed. The man stayed at the home for over an hour (she got him to go outside), and identified himself as Jeffrey Shumate. He was in his mid thirties, Caucasian, heavy set, had a crew cut, was about 5’ 6”. He wore a black biker’s jacket and was driving an older white Buick Skylark. He told the agent that he “went after” the last agent who reported him to the police.

AGENTS BEWARE! He made a point to tell the agent that he looks for open houses.

A complaint was filed with the Gwinnett County Police.
