Hilton Head Properties, Inc. is a Dallas-based real estate investment company that has been operating since 1999. The company hired Michael Ray Davis in 2007, unaware of his criminal background, to manage their finance department and handle bank relations. However, it was later discovered that Davis had been engaging in theft, embezzlement, and fraud by creating unknown bank accounts, credit card accounts, and loan accounts using the company's information. Davis also posted false and negative information about Hilton Head Properties and its president, Chase D. Fonteno, online, causing significant disruption and confusion within the company.
Despite these challenges, Hilton Head Properties successfully relocated to a new office and underwent investigations by the IRS and the Dallas District Attorney, both of which were initiated based on false claims made by Davis. The company was able to provide extensive documentation to disprove these allegations, leading to the eventual dropping of the investigations. Additionally, Davis attempted to shift blame onto a former employee, Wes Giliand, by falsely implicating Fonteno in Giliand's questionable business dealings, resulting in a misleading news story by Channel 11 News. However, Fonteno's attorney was able to present evidence proving the story to be untrue.
