Dear business entity. This letter is to inform you that upon examination of your Employer Identification Number (EIN), an incorrect business code was used to describe your primary business activity. It is important to ensure that your business code accurately reflects the nature of your business for proper classification and compliance purposes. Complete this amendment and return by the due date. This will not change your EIN, and you may continue to use your EIN.

I received a letter in the mail. Stating it was form 8061. Stating that it was from the US business regulations. The form states that is for employer identification number amendment. It stated that an incorrect business code was used to describe my business and for me to fill out the form below and attach it with a check of 107 dollars. And to make this check payable to the US business regulations. And it ask basic questions such as does my business sell goods offer service or both? And I'm to Mark a box saying goods or services or both. It has about eight questions attached to it and it asked me to give a brief description of my primary goods and services of my business.

I am a SDVOSB (Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business) and I purchase items for the government and do small contracted labor. I have mainly been working with the VA and recently expanded out and took a job with the Corps of Engineers. Being a small company I do not do too much at one time, so I waited till this job was underway. In that time I had received a solicitation from a Dennis Smith, Procurement Director, MBDA (Minority Business Development Agency), requesting laptops for one of his facilities. I submitted a bid for the job and after waiting like most contracts it came back that I had won the bid and the Director would issue me a PO for the purchases. The original amount of laptops was 40 and they needed to be shipped to Atlanta, GA (1755 The Exchange Suite 138 SE Atlanta GA 30339 USA). After the wire transfer was made to purchase the laptops, they were then shipped. Once this was confirmed the Director stated that he needed 60 more for another facility and stated to combine my two invoices and he would pay Net 30 based on the first purchase. I again purchased 60 laptops and had them shipped to a different location (64 East 98th street store B Brooklyn NY 11212, USA.) My 30 days form the first purchase had came up and I requested payment information. It was stated that there was an issue with payment, so I reached out to the National Office for MBDA and they stated that here is no Dennis Smith that works for MBDA. All total I spent $166,515.02 on laptops that were delivered to a guy that does not exist.

MY BACKGROUND/CURRENT SITUATION:

I currently have Direct PLUS Parent loans for my son. I contacted the assumed fraudulent agency thinking it was contracted by the U.S. Department of Education. I thought this was another effort to consolidate my loans for loan debt forgiveness, which I had to opt-out of last year with Nelnet, before my loan transferred to Mohela. I contacted the agency to only declare my opt-out from what I thought to be a consolidation and not to have any debt forgiven. I did not provide SSN or DOB, but the report I provided to the agency included my name, address, email, phone number, and redacted Loan Award ID number.

FRAUD REPORT:

Received a letter in the mail titled “Final Notice – Time Sensitive: One Time Account Adjustment Available For: (my First & Last Name). A Benefit ID# and Reference ID (both the same number) was provided. The letter stated I may be eligible for student loan forgiveness and provided instructions on how to create a new student FSA ID.

I called the Student Loan Assistance Department at 1-800-486-6045 provided on the letter. Someone answered sooner than I expected, considering I have had to deal with student loan service providers before. I spoke with a gentleman named Bryan and told him I was calling in regards to the letter received and which loan forgiveness plan the letter referred to and told him I request to opt-out. He then asked for my Reference ID (SP3112002575) on the letter. When I provided it, he confirmed my name and correct current address, and also asked if the number I was calling from was a good callback number. He then continued and confirmed a ball-park figure of my loan balance and asked if I was a past or current student. Since I replied I was a current student, he said I would have to wait until completed with school before I could apply. At some point, he also asked what year I planned to graduate.

He then asked if I had an FSA account and instructed me to send him information, so they could update my most current loan into their system. He directed me, once logged in to FSA, to click on my name on the top right-hand side of the FSA webpage, then scroll down the list and select ‘My Aid.’ He then told me to click on the ‘Download My Aid Data’ button, and send him a copy of the Notepad as an attachment to his email at [email protected]. When I asked him to spell out his email address, he did not use the traditional phonetic alphabet and used uncommon words to describe the letters, such as indigo for “i” and elephant for “e.’ He stayed on the line until he received my email with the attachment, but then put me on a brief (10-15 second) hold once he received it. When he returned from the hold, he stated or explained the reason why I was sent the letter was because my recent loan states ‘LOAN ORIGINATED’ for Current Loan Status, and mentioned again I would have to wait once I (in this case- my son) graduated from college. I continued to ask him a series of questions in which he could not answer, or kept recommending me to contact Mohela. Before hanging up with Bryan, I asked if I would receive a confirmation email or reference number for the conversation and/or actions that took place between us over the phone and email, but he said no there would not.

This is the second one that has come in the mail. To me the envelope is looking like one from the Social security office. This family member does not investigate their mail well and being 78 year old Vet, things like this looks convincing to him

I received a call from the “Sheriff’s Office of San Diego.” The initial caller said I had missed jury duty and that I had a warrant out for my arrest and could be picked up any time. I told them I filled out an excusal, but they said it must have been a clerical error and they wanted to “clear” it up right away. I was forwarded around to a few people. I ended up on the phone with a man who asked me if I wanted to post bail. I told him I wasn’t going to give financial information over the phone. He threatened me saying the offense was 2 years in jail and/or a 5,000 dollar fine. He asked me if I wanted to plead. I was crying, since I was frustrated that I had filled out the excusal and was frustrated. He was openly hostile and mocking me. I told him I was going to get a lawyer. He eventually hung up on me ( I guess I was that annoying!)
