Gino Abbruzzino is a scum-bag piece of s**t. For anyone out there thinking about doing any kind of home improvement like remodeling, roofing, siding, concrete, or having any kind of business relationship with Vittorio "Gino" Abbruzzino please read this first because I am about to enlighten you as to who he really is and not who he pretends to be. Although that is hard to pinpoint since he has so many aliases, but maybe you know him as, Gino, Vic, John, Joe, Vittorio, Gino Abbruzzino, Vittorio Abbruzzino, Vittorio Gino Abbruzzino, Vic Anderson, John Abbruzzino, Joe Simmons and John Anderson. He has also gone as far as to forge his signature as Joe Simmons the poor unsuspecting family man who Gino took advantage of by using his builders license, since Gino had his revoked. But lets not get ahead of ourselves lets start at the beginning: The Beginning:
Gino, Vic, Joe, John, or whatever he calls himself, his real birth name is Vittorio Gino Abbruzzino, born May 2nd 1962. This so called Home Builder first retained his builders license in 1986 when he was 24 years old. He quickly lost his license due to bad workmanship. Soon there after he began finding poor unsuspecting victims in which he promised to pay money if he could use their builders license, which by the way is illegal, not to mention unethical.
His license was revoked in 1990 under complaint # 14175 License # 210 106 3088. See link below: His license has been revoked / suspended 9 times in that period.
Then this guy suckered various family members into pulling building permits under their builders licenses so that Gino aka Vic, John, Joe, or whomever he decided to call himself could appear as a legitimate builder. This brings us to our next point: The Poor Ex-Wife:
Gino met his nave ex-wife when she was only 21 years & he was 10 years to her senior.
He convinced her to get a builders license, although she knew nothing of the trade, or what she got herself into. She got the license for him not knowing that there was anything wrong with what he wanted her to do or what he was really up to. She obtained her license in 1999 and shortly thereafter she was a stay at home mom, while Gino ran the entire operation as the sole owner. During this time he proceeded to run her license, credit and name into the ground. His wife at the time stayed at home with 3 small children and took care of them. The poor unsuspecting wife was called in the office to help while the secretary was out of town. Unknown to her, Heather Catallo from Channel 7 News Investigators was in search of the license holder, which was now suspended, for Bruno Building Corporation aka Advance Building and began to question and embarrass Ginos wife on television while he hid like a coward in his office and let his defenseless wife take the heat. If you would like more information about this story please contact the Investigative Team at 248-827-9252 or e-mail Heather at During this time Gino got 15 sanctions imposed to him on her license to the tune of almost $200,000.00!
The Complaint numbers are as follows: 298055 -95149 300076 301050 298244 300077 299049 93646 88280 89653 11544 85189 85795 11697 11544. See link below: For which Gino claimed No Responsibility for his actions and then stuck her with it during their divorce. He also owes the IRS approximately $170,000.00 in business taxes for Bruno Building Corporation and cowardly tried to stick his ex-wife with this burden of debt too, hiding all the appeal documents from the IRS from her. Then during their divorce, which by the way was caused by 2 things, 1) she finally came to her senses and realized what a low life piece of crap this guy was and 2) he was having a illicit affair with his mother-in-law. When his wife at the time found this out and confronted the sneaky couple, he proceeded to throw his wife and children out of their home and into the street, with nothing. When she decided to move on, he then began to stalk, threaten, degrade and harass her and anyone who came near her, including slashing babysitters tires, keying friends cars, hiding in the bushes outside her house, spying on her, threatening her life and the lives of anyone in her life. She filed dozens and dozens of police reports against this lunatic and had 3 PPOs filed against him in Oakland and Wayne counties. I heard she even had to move herself and children clear across the country to get away from this lunatic. Beware of this Con-Man:
Joe Xuereb , his old friend and used to be his attorney until Joe was convinced to work for free until Gino was able to pay him for all of his legal fees on defending him for his business and his personal life. Gino gave Joe his word and that word meant nothing at all, Joe was never reimbursed for his service to the tune of $62,000.00. Then he filed bankruptcy in 2009 and wiped his slate clean. He also owed his own mother, Antoinette Abbruzzino, $250,000.00 before she passed away from cancer, God rest her soul. Which she could have used that money for treatments to help fight off her cancer. Gino also took advantage of his own father, Salvatore Abbruzzino, who he owes over $100,000.00 to and who will never talk to his son again. If that was my son I would want nothing to do with him again either. He still owes his ex-wife $18,000.00 and counting monthly and she has to support her 3 small children all by herself as a single mom. He also took advantage of National Lumber, Stock Building Supply, Rizzo Services, Square Deal, Detroit Reddi Mix, Allied Building, Kem-Tec, JB Dollar Stretcher, just to name a few. He would even place fraudulent liens on peoples properties to try and embezzle money out of them. Fraud:
Gino or Vittorio also has been fraudulently claiming and collecting unemployment from the state of Michigan for years, did I mention he has not paid taxes in years.
He also has equipment that he hides at Redford Storage Depot. The equipment that he was ordered to hand over in his court cases, he has a dump truck, bob cat, and pick up trucks, etc. He put all of these things under his familys names, Gianni Abbruzzino aka John Abbruzzino, Joseph Grech, Laura Grech, Teresa Policcichio, Mario Policcichio, and Mario Succurro and his friends Frederick Giordano aka Freddy Giordano, Salvatore Giordano, Eddie Paul and Mike Greeb so he can hide his assets and not pay his obligations. He never files or pays his taxes, but when he did file his taxes in the past, he forged his own W-2s and claims poverty so he doesnt have to pay his ex-wife, the IRS, the State of Michigan, his father, bill collectors, nobody! He says he is a Ghost invisible to track. This peach Gino has also taken deposits for work that he sold under one of those companys with no builders license and never performed the work or never finished what he started. Now if this man is this unscrupulous with his own family, then what do you think he would do to you and your family??? No Builders License:
After he destroyed his wifes builders license, reputation and credibility, he went after her best friends husbands license and conned him into using it. Gino said that he would pay to use it, but he never did. And when Joe Simmons severed the business relationship due to Ginos lies and deceit, Gino went and forged Joes signature on a suppliers invoice holding Joe responsible for over $10,000.00! To this day Vittorio Gino Abbruzzino still does not have a builders license, not even a license to build a dog house! So, if you see the name Advance Building, Advance Building Group llc, Bruno Construction, Bruno Waterproofing, Bruno Building Corporation, or Encore Investments llc, or any of the aliases I have named here Beware!! Run!! His Site:
Maybe you have seen him around, he works in the entire Detroit Metropolitan area in cities like Detroit, Redford, Wyandotte, Southfield, Lincoln Park, Livonia, Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, Northville, Taylor, Oak Park, Ferndale, Highland Park, Allen Park, etc, etc, etc. Oh, I hear that he is now soliciting people on Craigs List for suckers with builders licenses who he hopes will fall prey to his lies. He has not been licensed since 1990! If you would like to do any research yourself, by all means please call The Department of Energy, Labor and Economic Growth Licensing Division in Lansing, Michigan at (517) 241- 9288 or e-mail them at The State of Michigan has no intention of ever issuing him a license again, he even took his case all the way to the Court of Appeals and was denied based on evidence from the State of Michigan that he is unethical and untrustworthy!
