Serial Scammer Exposed: The Shocking Truth About Ryant Connelly & Belen Perez

 How a Couple from Corpus Christi Has Left a Trail of Fraud, Fake Businesses, and Financial Ruin Across Texas

👤 Who Is Ryant Connelly?

At first glance, Ryant Connelly presents himself as a hardworking businessman—a contractor, remodeler, and roofing expert with companies like VIP Concrete Coaters, VIP Luxury Remodels, and VIP Metal Roofing. But the truth is far from that image. Behind the polished social media presence and smooth-talking demeanor lies a well-documented history of fraud, deception, and serial scams—some of which have even landed him in jail.

His Partner in Crime: Belen Perez

Alongside him is his wife, Belen Perez, who plays an active role in many of these schemes—often accompanying him to meet clients in person, helping to gain their trust, and later vanishing without completing any promised work.


💼 The Pattern: How They Operate

  1. Fake Business Setup:
    Ryant poses as the owner of multiple construction and remodeling companies. He hires professional designers and agencies (like mine) to create legitimate-looking websites, brand identities, and business cards.

  2. Stolen Portfolio:
    The content used on these websites and Facebook pages is stolen—ripped from other businesses, Pinterest, and Google Images. None of the projects shown belong to him.

  3. Facebook Ads & Fake Promotions:
    He runs local ads on social media to attract homeowners looking for affordable construction, concrete, or remodeling services.

  4. In-Person Sales Pitch:
    Ryant and Belen visit clients personally to gain their trust, collect a deposit (sometimes in full), and then disappear without finishing the job.

  5. Ghosting & Threats:
    Victims are ignored, blocked, or threatened if they demand refunds. Some have been left with half-finished projects, destroyed property, or no work at all.

  6. Scamming Vendors Too:
    I personally was hired to build six websites, design marketing material, create business emails, and run SEO—all of which were paid for and delivered. Later, he disputed every single payment (over $5,000), forcing me to refund everything or risk losing my merchant account.
