Scammer's address 5043 Graves Avenue Suite H, San Jose, CA 95129, USA
Country United States
Victim Location AZ 85024, USA
Type of a scam Phishing

Scammer found my new business and sent a letter (actually a form) in the US mail requiring me to register the business. They cited the US Corporate Transparency Act that requires the registration. This letter oversimplifies the reporting requirement since I know that I was not required to do this reporting. Also, the actual government organization responsible for this reporting is not referenced. The form also claimed a civil penalty for non-compliance. This form requests EIN, name phone number and email of the submitter. It also requires the names and address of all business owners.

The return envelope shows no government markings and requires postage.

I discovered that the address is not a building containing any US Government organization, or even a private business by the name "US Records Management", to whom checks were to be made payable.

I am the current resident of the address associated with this business. I have owned the home since May of 2023. The business continues to receive mail at my address and when searched, it shows that the business was opened and registered in February of 2023 and is still active. I believe it is a scam because the name Juan Carillo who is the registered owner is associated with over 200 businesses that were opened across many different states within the last year. I want their business to stop sending me mail and I don’t want that business or any business for that matter registered at my address.

First class mail item with an official looking form from United States Records Managment seal in the top left of the document, a notification ID on the top right, and then a standard set of penalties for not complying including $500 per day, addition fine of $10,000 and up to 2 years in jail. Only by reading the very small print at the bottom of the form, do you see a note that your signature is your acceptance for The US Records Management to act as your paid preparer to file the BOI on your behalf. I am going to complain to my Senator and Rep as well as this type of scam should be shut down.

received email from supposedly Norton with an invoice attached for 459.99 saying someone ordered Norton, which no one did. had to go through the whole process of canceling even though I never ordered it, They tried to tell me I had to tell them how much was in my bank account. The number I called them on was 877-653-4637

They said my order number was NOR3247jk527. I believe them to be phishing. They said I had to answer the phone if their supervisor called. I did not order this service that they said I did.

I received a letter in the mail from the "US Records Management, Division of Corporate Reporting" addressed to my LLC (single owner, not a corporation). It used threats of fines, imprisonment, citied congressional laws, requested tax information and corporate ownership information (name, address, email). Required a payment of $119 in a check made payable to: US RECORDS MANAGEMENT to be sent to an address in San Jose, CA. The address is for a commercial building with an insurance agency, acupuncturist and heath store/spa. Clearly a scam. My LLC is registered in Colorado, so they are sending scam letters over state lines via USPS.

I received a call from someone about my rehab from a foreign speaking lady about having supplements for me and where do I want them to be delivered. I asked her what rehab and got no response from her, she just kept saying I got your supplements and when do you want them delivered. I did go to rehab but it was for cardiac rehab. I kept asking her what rehab and she would not respond to me.

A mean man in a mean tone calling from an area code (423) said he was from Hamilton County Sheriff's Department and that I had to be in court this afternoon or pay court fees to avoid court. He had my old street address. He said I was in trouble. All of this in a voice message, but then he called again from an area code (205). This time, I talked to him and said, "you just called from a different number, so I know this is a scam." He yelled and told me that "I" was the scammer and that "he" would come to my home on Strawberry Lane and "drag me out of my house and drag me to court." He was yelling, I hung up and blocked his number.

I then called the Hamilton County Sheriff's office to find out if there was a warrant and explain what this man had done. They took my full name and date of birth and then he told me that "No, you are not in the system." He assured me this was a scam and that he'd had about 100 similar calls in the past two years.

I received a letter in the mail for my company from the US Records Management Division of Corporate Reporting. "Pursuant to the United States Corporate Transparency Act, Enacted by Congress. US Businesses are required to report their beneficial ownership information. A reporting company is any corporation..."

The letter then says the filing fee is $119 and provided a bunch of boxes for payment.

Letter's pretty professional. Almost had me.

This company has sent us over 50 phishing emails in the past week regarding what appears to be a fraudulent loan or loans in the name of an employee who has not worked here for over a decade, and who I have personal knowledge has not attempted any business with them ever. Each message urgently requests personal information about a loan that should not exist.

We are being overwhelmed with robocalls on our landline from an outfit called “U.S. Funeral Expenses Company” despite the fact that our landline number has been on the Do Not Call list since September of 2003! We have blocked hundreds of calls from this outfit but they keep calling again using some other number. Many times the company uses fake caller IDs to make it appear that some other business is calling.

Back in Dec 2023 I had called an HVAC repair outfit to fix my furnace that was not working properly. Due to my age, I do not remember who this person or outfit is any longer. And my reason for providing my experience is to inform others from this happening to them. What transpired was the replacement and installation of a "Tempstar" furnace unit valued at only 600.00, and was still charged 4500 for the complete job. Needless to say, the furnace stopped working 3 months later, with new severe problems being observed. Upon this individual's installation of the furnace, instead of the furnace's exhaust discharge being routed outside of the furnace, it was installed "inside" of the unit where carbon monoxide was being blown directly back into the house with the heat. Fortunately, no one was hurt from this obvious faulty installation, and I have no one to blame but myself. But with that said, hopefully there will be someone out there that knows who this is so further information can be supplied to keep this from happening to someone else. There is also picture evidence that can be provided as well.

She posted on social media about a service she was offering. The friend sent money for service and Jade accepted the money but did not provide service. She claimed there was a family emergency so when the lady asked for refund as it was for Easter for her son, Jade Mayo ignored all messages and has not sent money back.
