RHOA Star Lisa Wu Accused of Real Estate Scam

Lisa Wu, formerly of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta,' is disputing claims that she engaged in a fraudulent scheme to deprive a friend of a home. A DeKalb County police report, filed on April 9, 2026, outlines allegations of theft by deception dating back to November 2025. The report mentions Wu's boyfriend, Donald Jacob, as potentially involved.

According to a nephew of the accuser, Wu allegedly facilitated the acquisition of the home through an LLC with the understanding that the deed would be transferred back to the friend after resolving a lien. The nephew claimed Donald Jacob had no intention of returning the property.

Wu, however, adamantly denies any wrongdoing. She stated that she assisted a friend who could not secure a loan independently. Wu alleges that after making a few payments, her friend stopped communicating and is now occupying the home without proper legal standing.

Text messages from early April 2026, allegedly from Wu to the friend, were obtained, reminding her about payments and water bills. The accuser disputes Wu's account, asserting that Wu bought the house and then attempted to resell it at an inflated price.
