Consumer Advocates Group Experts, LLC

For Release: 02/07/2013

Defendants in Alleged “Forensic Audit” Mortgage Scam Settle FTC Charges

Marketers Held Out Bogus Promise that They Could Help Consumers Avoid Foreclosure; Often Charged Thousands of Dollars

The defendants behind an operation that allegedly preyed on vulnerable homeowners have agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that they lured people into paying $1,995 or more by holding out bogus promises that they

could help them avoid foreclosure and renegotiate their mortgages.

The FTC’s settlement order against the Los Angeles, California-based Consumer Advocates Group Experts, LLC, company owner Ryan Zimmerman, and two other related companies is part of the agency’s continuing crackdown on scams that target consumers in financial distress.  It bans the defendants from marketing any mortgage assistance relief or other debt relief products or services.  It also prohibits them from making misleading claims about any financial product or service, or any other type of product or service.

At the request of the FTC, a U.S. district court halted the operation pending trial in June 2012.  The FTC’s complaint charged the defendants with violating the FTC Act and the Mortgage Assistance Relief Services Rule, known as the MARS Rule, by deceptively telling consumers that they could renegotiate mortgages, making payments substantially more affordable; that they could use the “forensic audits” to negotiate with lenders; and that if they failed to do these things, they would provide a refund.  The complaint also charges the defendants with other MARS Rule violations, including collecting fees for mortgage foreclosure rescue and loan modification services before homeowners accept a written offer from their lender or servicer, and failing to make required disclosures.

The settlement also imposes a $3.5 million judgment, which reflects the full amount of consumer injury during the two years before the operation was shut down.  The judgment will be suspended due to the defendants’ inability to pay.  If it is later determined that the financial information the defendants provided to the FTC was false, the full amount of the judgment will become due.

According to the complaint, the defendants claimed on their website that “up to 95% of mortgages may be legally unenforceable due to defects like lost documents, improper notices, appraisal and/or predatory lending.”  Using this claim, they said the results of the “forensic audits” they provided would help consumers avoid foreclosure.  They also promised that consumers could obtain mortgage modifications with reduced interest rates and lower monthly mortgage payments.

The complaint alleges that consumers often did not receive loan modifications or reduced
payments, and often found out from their lenders that the defendants either contacted them and failed to follow up, or never contacted them at all.  The complaint also alleges that the defendants routinely failed to answer or return consumers’ telephone calls and emails seeking updates on their mortgage modifications, failed to provide refunds to consumers who requested them, and put consumers at risk of losing their homes and damaging their credit ratings. Consumers often learned too late that their houses were being foreclosed upon, according to the complaint.

In addition to Consumer Advocates Group Experts, LLC and Zimmerman, the complaint and settlement order name Paramount Asset Management Corporation and Advocates for Consumer Affairs Expert, LLC as defendants in this case.

The FTC has advice for consumers about mortgage modification and foreclosure rescue scams.  For more information see the website Your Home and the publication Forensic Loan Audits.

The Commission vote authorizing the staff to file the proposed consent agreement was 5-0, with Commissioner Joshua D. Wright participating.  The FTC filed the proposed consent agreement in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California January 23, 2013, and it was entered by the court on February 1, 2013.

NOTE:  This consent decree is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by the defendants that the law has been violated.  Consent decrees have the force of law when approved and signed by the District Court judge.

The Federal Trade Commission works for consumers to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices and to provide information to help spot, stop, and avoid them. To file a complaint in English or Spanish, visit the FTC’s online Complaint Assistant or call 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357). The FTC enters complaints into Consumer Sentinel, a secure, online database available to more than 2,000 civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad.

FTC Returns More Than $685,000 to Victims of “Real Wealth” Scam

For Release: 02/27/2013

FTC Returns More Than $685,000 to Victims of “Real Wealth” Work-at-Home and Grant Scam

The Federal Trade Commission is mailing 50,365 refund checks totaling more than $685,000 to consumers who were victimized by a bogus work-at-home and grant scam.  As part of a February 2010 law enforcement crackdown, the FTC took action against Real Wealth and other schemes, alleging that they took advantage of the economic downturn to bilk vulnerable consumers by peddling various products that supposedly helped to generate income.

In an ongoing partnership with the AARP Foundation, the FTC will provide consumers receiving redress checks with contact information for the AARP Fraud Fighter Call Center.  The center staff provide guidance about ways to avoid scams and stay safe.

The FTC alleged that Real Wealth, Inc. and its owner, Lance Murkin, preyed on the elderly, the disabled, and other consumers nationwide with a deceptive direct-mail campaign that marketed and sold booklets supposedly explaining how to earn money by working from home or applying for government grants.

The court agreed with the FTC that these claims were false or unsubstantiated, in violation of the FTC Act, and granted the FTC’s motion for summary judgment against the defendants.

Each consumer will receive $13.63, or 68 percent of the average amount lost, which was $20.  The checks will be mailed by an administrator working for the FTC, and will expire 60 days after they are issued.  The FTC never requires consumers to pay money or provide information before refund checks can be cashed.  The FTC would like to thank AARP Legal Counsel for the Elderly for bringing Real Wealth to its attention.

Consumers with questions about the Real Wealth refund checks should call the refund administrator at 1-888-519-6918.  For general questions about the FTC’s redress program, visit www.FTC.gov/refunds.

Consumers should carefully evaluate claims about work-at-home offers.  For more information see:  Business Opportunity Scams.

To learn about current scams and ways to stay safe, contact the AARP Fraud Fighter Call Center toll free at 1-800-646-2283, or www.aarp.org/wa.  The call center has consumer education materials on a wide range of issues concerning fraud prevention and victim support.  In past years, the call center provided peer counseling services to more than 500,000 consumers around the country.

For Release: 02/26/2013

Identity Theft Tops List for 13th Consecutive Year in Report of National Consumer Complaints

Identity theft is once more the top complaint received by the Federal Trade Commission, which has released its 2012 annual report of complaints. 2012 marks the first year in which the FTC received more than 2 million complaints overall, and 369,132, or 18 percent, were related to identity theft. Of those, more than 43 percent related to tax- or wage-related fraud.

The report gives national data, as well as a state-by-state accounting of top complaint categories and a listing of the metropolitan areas that generated the most complaints. This includes the top 50 metropolitan areas for both fraud complaints and identity theft complaints.

The remainder of complaint categories making up the top 10 are:

Number Percent
Debt collection 199,721 10 percent
Banks and Lenders 132,340 6 percent

A complete list of all complaint categories is available on page six of the report.

The FTC enters complaints into the Consumer Sentinel Network, a secure online database that is available to more than 2,000 civil and criminal law enforcement agencies across the country. Agencies use the data to research cases, identify victims and track possible targets.

Other federal and state law enforcement agencies contribute to Consumer Sentinel, including the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Internet Crime Complaint Center and the offices of 14 state attorneys general.

FTC Warns Veterans: Be Wary of ‘Free’ Pension Advice

 02/25/2013

The Federal Trade Commission warns veterans and their families:  Be wary of dishonest advisers offering “free” help with paperwork for pension claims.

Unscrupulous lawyers, financial planners and insurance agents advise veterans over 65 to transfer their assets to a trust, or to invest in insurance products, so they can qualify for Aid and Attendance benefits.  By following their advice, you could lose your eligibility for Medicaid services and the use of your money for a long time, plus get billed for fees that range from hundreds to thousands of dollars.

Whether it’s through an ad or a website, these offers usually involve a free seminar, often at assisted living facilities, senior centers, or other places in your community.  They may claim to be veterans themselves, and appeal to your emotions to get you to act.  Consider any pressure to act fast as your cue to say no.  Your best bet is to take your time, do some research, and consider all your options, including doing nothing.

HTC America Settles FTC Charges

For Release: 02/22/2013

 It Failed to Secure Millions of Mobile Devices Shipped to Consumers

Company Required to Patch Vulnerabilities on Smartphones and Tablets

Mobile device manufacturer HTC America has agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that the company failed to take reasonable steps to secure the software it developed for its smartphones and tablet computers, introducing security flaws that placed sensitive information about millions of consumers at risk.

The settlement requires HTC America to develop and release software patches to fix vulnerabilities found in millions of HTC devices. In addition, the settlement requires HTC America to establish a comprehensive security program designed to address security risks during the development of HTC devices and to undergo independent security assessments every other year for the next 20 years.

HTC America, Inc., a leading mobile device manufacturer in the United States, develops and manufactures mobile devices based on the Android, Windows Mobile, and Windows Phone operating systems. HTC America has customized the software on these devices in order to differentiate itself from competitors and to comply with the requirements of mobile network operators.

The Commission charged that HTC America failed to employ reasonable and appropriate security practices in the design and customization of the software on its mobile devices. Among other things, the complaint alleged that HTC America failed to provide its engineering staff with adequate security training, failed to review or test the software on its mobile devices for potential security vulnerabilities, failed to follow well-known and commonly accepted secure coding practices, and failed to establish a process for receiving and addressing vulnerability reports from third parties.

To illustrate the consequences of these alleged failures, the FTC’s complaint details several vulnerabilities found on HTC’s devices, including the insecure implementation of two logging applications – Carrier IQ and HTC Loggers – as well as programming flaws that would allow third-party applications to bypass Android’s permission-based security model.

Due to these vulnerabilities, the FTC charged, millions of HTC devices compromised sensitive device functionality, potentially permitting malicious applications to send text messages, record audio, and even install additional malware onto a consumer’s device, all without the user’s knowledge or consent. The FTC alleged that malware placed on consumers’ devices without their permission could be used to record and transmit information entered into or stored on the device, including, for example, financial account numbers and related access codes or medical information such as text messages received from healthcare providers and calendar entries concerning doctor’s appointments. In addition, malicious applications could exploit the vulnerabilities on HTC devices to gain unauthorized access to a variety of other sensitive information, such as the user’s geolocation information and the contents of the user’s text messages.

Moreover, the complaint alleged that the user manuals for HTC Android-based devices contained deceptive representations, and that the user interface for the company’s Tell HTC application was also deceptive. In both cases, the security vulnerabilities in HTC Android-based devices undermined consent mechanisms that would have otherwise prevented unauthorized access or transmission of sensitive information.

The settlement not only requires the establishment of a comprehensive security program, but also prohibits HTC America from making any false or misleading statements about the security and privacy of consumers’ data on HTC devices. HTC America and its network operator partners are also in the process of deploying the security patches required by the settlement to consumers’ devices. Many consumers have already received the required security updates. The FTC encourages consumers to apply the updates as soon as possible.

The settlement with HTC America is part of the FTC’s ongoing effort to ensure that companies secure the software and devices that they ship to consumers. Earlier this month, the FTC introduced Mobile App Developers: Start with Security, a new business guide that encourages app developers to aim for reasonable data security. In addition, on June 4, 2013, the Commission will host a public forum on malware and other mobile security threats in order to examine the security of existing and developing mobile technologies and the roles that various members of the mobile ecosystem can play in protecting consumers.

The Commission vote to accept the consent agreement package containing the proposed consent order for public comment was 3-0-2, with Chairman Jon Leibowitz not participating and Commissioner Maureen Ohlhausen recused. The FTC will publish a description of the consent agreement package in the Federal Register shortly. The agreement will be subject to public comment for 30 days, beginning today and continuing through March 22, after which the Commission will decide whether to make the proposed consent order final. Interested parties can submit comments electronically or in paper form by following the instructions in the “Invitation To Comment” part of the “Supplementary Information” section. Comments in paper form should be mailed or delivered to: Federal Trade Commission, Office of the Secretary, Room H-113 (Annex D), 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20580. The FTC is requesting that any comment filed in paper form near the end of the public comment period be sent by courier or overnight service, if possible, because U.S. postal mail in the Washington area and at the Commission is subject to delay due to heightened security precautions.

Twitter Chat
FTC staff will host a Twitter Chat today from 12-1 p.m. ET to answer questions about the HTC America settlement. Follow @FTC and tweet questions with the hashtag #FTCpriv.

NOTE: The Commission issues an administrative complaint when it has “reason to believe” that the law has been or is being violated, and it appears to the Commission that a proceeding is in the public interest. The complaint is not a finding or ruling that the respondent has actually violated the law. A consent order is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by the respondent that the law has been violated. When the Commission issues a consent order on a final basis, it carries the force of law with respect to future actions. Each violation of such an order may result in a civil penalty of up to $16,000.

Robocaller Banned From Telemarketing in Settlement with FTC

For Release: 02/19/2013

The architect of an operation that allegedly distributed illegal robocalls offering credit card interest rate reduction programs, extended automobile warranties, and home security systems, is banned from telemarketing under a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission.

The FTC settlement against Roy M. Cox, Jr., is part of the FTC’s ongoing efforts to stop illegal robocalls.  In December 2011, the FTC charged Cox and several related companies with illegally failing to transmit their name or their clients’ names on consumers’ caller ID displays when making their telemarketing calls, using generic names instead, such as “CARD SERVICES,” “CREDIT SERVICES,” or “PRIVATE OFFICE.”  The FTC also alleged that they knew, or consciously avoided knowing, that they called phone numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry, and made pre-recorded sales calls to consumers without their written consent.

The settlement order bans Cox from telemarketing and imposes a $1.1 million civil penalty that will be suspended due to his inability to pay.  The full penalty will become due immediately if he is found to have misrepresented his financial condition.  The FTC and DOJ have asked the court to dismiss five of Cox’s co-defendants who could not be served or are defunct – Castle Rock Capital Management S.A., Capital Solutions Group S.A., Transfers Argentina S.A., Public Service, and Marketing Strategy Group – and will seek to have default entered against a sixth defendant.

The Commission vote to approve the proposed consent judgment was 3-0-2, with Commissioners Ohlhausen and Wright not participating.  The Department of Justice filed the proposed consent judgment on behalf of the Commission in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.  The Court entered the consent judgment on January 31, 2013.

NOTE:  This consent judgment is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by the defendant that the law has been violated.  Consent judgments have the force of law when approved and signed by the District Court judge.

FTC Settlement Bans Telemarketers from Selling Healthcare-Related Products

For Release: 02/20/2013

Telemarketers Allegedly Bilked Millions of Dollars from Consumers Seeking Health Insurance

Telemarketers who allegedly tricked consumers into buying purported health insurance are permanently banned from selling healthcare-related products under a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission.  The case is part of the FTC’s ongoing efforts to crack down on fraudsters who prey on vulnerable consumers seeking health insurance, including the uninsured, the unemployed, and those with pre-existing medical conditions.

In September 2012, the FTC charged Roy D. Hamilton and his wife, Judy M. Hamilton, and their companies, Health Service Providers, Inc., Magnolia Health Management Corporation, Magnolia Technologies Corporation, and Fav Marketing Inc. (HSP defendants), with fraudulently selling bogus health insurance for the Independent Association of Businesses (IAB).  The HSP defendants allegedly called consumers who had submitted their contact information to websites that claimed to offer quotes for traditional health insurance or equivalent coverage.  According to the FTC, after paying an initial fee ranging from $50 to several hundred dollars and a monthly fee ranging from $40 to $1,000, consumers eventually learned they had not purchased comprehensive health insurance, but were deceived into buying an IAB membership that supposedly provided discounts on services such as golf, travel, and some limited health related services and insured benefits.

In addition to the ban against selling healthcare-related products, the settlement order prohibits the HSP defendants from misrepresenting material facts about any goods or services, selling or otherwise benefiting from consumers’ personal information, and from violating the FTC’s Telemarketing Sales Rule, including calling consumers on the Do Not Call Registry.  The order also imposes an $11.8 million judgment that has been suspended following the HSP defendants’ surrender of assets to the FTC.

Litigation continues against the remaining defendants behind the allegedly fraudulent health insurance scheme:  IAB Marketing Associates LP, Independent Association of Businesses, HealthCorp International Inc., JW Marketing Designs LLC, International Marketing Agencies, LP, International Marketing Management LLC, Wood LLC, James C. Wood, James J. Wood, Michael J. Wood, and Gary D. Wood.  The FTC has also sought to amend its complaint against the remaining defendants in the case, adding two individuals as relief defendants who allegedly benefitted from the scheme but did not participate in it.

The Commission vote approving the consent order and authorizing the staff to file the amended complaint was 4-0-1, with Chairman Leibowitz not participating.  The FTC filed its motion to amend the complaint on February 13, 2013, and the consent order was entered by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida on February 19, 2013.

NOTE:  The Commission files a complaint when it has “reason to believe” that the law has been or is being violated and it appears to the Commission that a proceeding is in the public interest.  The complaint is not a finding or ruling that the defendant has actually violated the law.  The consent order is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by the defendant that the law has been violated.  Consent orders have the force of law when approved and signed by the District Court judge.

Colocation America Ownership ~ UnitedLayer

The WhoIs registar does not provide the PUBLIC with the name of the owner. The physical address listed is a mail drop in Las Vegas, NV. The trademark application filed November 26, 2007 list Albert Ahdoot as CEO.

Colocation America and UnitedLayer Management Ownership

  • Arman Khalili is currently the Founder, CEO and co-owner.
  • Peter Preuss[8] – Director of Systems Architecture and co-owner
  • Otto Grajeda [9]- Founder and co-owner
  • Albert A. Ahdoot – [10]- co-owner

Colocation America is own and operated by one Albert Ahdoot aka Albert A. Ahdoot aImage representing UnitedLayer as depicted in ...professional spammer and his business partners at UnitedLayer. Albert Ahdoot at one time operated Net Global Marketing  a firm accused of running a SPAM operation by Earthlink.

According to his sleazeball  Attorney Paul S. Sigelman of Sigelman Law or Paul Sigelman Law Firm, Albert Ahdoot is not the owner filed with Godaddy, the domain registar. He has since rescinded his assertion that Albert Ahdoot is not the owner in other pleadings.

scamFRAUDalert hosting experienced with this individual dba Colocation America was nothing more than a complete disaster. Two bogus lawsuits were filed against scamFRAUDalert.

Albert Ahdoot also goes by Albert Arash Ahdoot. He is the Founder/CEO/OWNER of Colocation America Corporation. A registered Nevada Corporation with it’s primary place of business  Los Angeles, CA who lease  data spaces from the downtown data centers and across USA.

Mr. Ahdoot is a RESELLER of Colocation services as he lease rack space from Digital Realty Trust, Multacom.com, UnitedLayer, Above.com, Cogent Communication, Level 3 Communications and other ISP providers across continental USA and resells colocation spaces via his websites.

Legal Threats  – Letters

Mr. Ahdoot and his sleazeball Attorney actively seek to remove any negative comments posted online about Mr. Albert Ahdoot business practices and his company Colocation America Corporation.

The standard industry practice for e-commerce companies to silence critics  is  through the legal process, if unsuccessful, they deploy  other means such as spammingDdos attacks, issuing bogus daily press releases or just outright smear campaigns.

Since encountering Albert Ahdoot, our observation so far of Albert A. Ahdoot business practices dba Colocation America Corporation dba Colocation America, Inc. dba ColocationUSA, dba Los Angeles Colocations dba Colocation America,Los Angeles Data Centers, Colocation America Facebook, ColocationUSA Twitter, datacenterandcolocation.com, colocationAmerica – la.bbb.org  is the  spamming of  search engines  so as to limit negative comments posted online about Colocation America and Mr. Ahdoot from appearing on page one of search results.

In summary, Albert Ahdoot engages in questionable business practice and is not trustworthy.

WhoIs ~ jobbingtree.com

Jobbing tree contacts you saying there is a job for you and that Fraud Alertthey will pre-interview you over the phone to see if you are a good fit for your future employer.

When they start the questions, they ask you if you have a computer at home (first clue it is not for the job offered). Second they say it will take about 20-25 minutes. Then they ask you: Are you interested in pursuing an education? and after you say:NO. The supposed “interview” ends.

My take is they are fishing for candidates to sell them as leads to educational institutions. They are trying to sell a course or courses.
I would sincerely doubt if anyone ever gets a job through Jobbingtree.com.
