Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes

Over the past several months, the victim/survivor received multiple phone calls informing her that she had won a prize. The first call came from a man identifying himself as "Dave Peterson," calling from the number 516-253-1402 and representing a company called "Winners International." Peterson told the victim/survivor she had won a prize, but that in order to process and release her winnings, she would first need to send a check in the amount of $1,200.00. Peterson advised that the fee would be collected by the company's "Accounting Department" and that she would soon be contacted by a representative named "Jimmy Sloan," who claimed to be a certified CPA. Sloan did in fact call the victim/survivor shortly afterward, instructing her to mail the $1,200.00 check to 884 Beecher Ct SW, Atlanta, GA 30311. In an apparent effort to pressure the victim/survivor into sending the check more quickly, she then received an email from a person identifying herself as "Kisha Melson," who falsely claimed to be a BBB employee. To lend credibility to the scheme, Melson's email included images purporting to be her own BBB identification badge, along with identification for "Jimmy Sloan" (CPA) and "Dave Peterson" (Winners International employee). Growing concerned about the legitimacy of the situation — particularly after receiving what appeared to be official BBB identification — the victim/survivor contacted our office. Staff confirmed that no BBB employee named Kisha Melson exists in our records and that the entire scheme, including the fabricated identification documents, was part of an elaborate advance-fee prize/lottery scam. The victim/survivor had not yet sent any money and lost no funds as a result of the contact.

Home Improvement - My Sons Fences and Landscape Contractors LLC

I am submitting this statement to report fraud conducted by Ulises Diaz of My Son’s Landscape Group, LLC. In May 2026, we contracted with My Son’s Landscape Group to complete a landscaping, fencing, and deck project. The project cost estimate was $26,605. On May 12, 2026, we paid a 50% deposit of $13,302.50. The project work was never started or completed. We made dozens of attempts to communicate with Ulises and gave several options for him to provide project updates. When it became clear that the work was not going to be completed in a timely manner, we demanded multiple times for him to refund our deposit. This was on June 8, 2026. Ulises stopped communicating with us and never refunded the deposit.

Online Purchase - Alcohol Website Purchase Scam

purchased alcohol on website. Waited over a month, with a fake tracking service that claimed to take a long time to process and ship the item (that was bottled in the US) out of Poland. Claimed to have delivered item but it was never delivered. The charge on my credit card was to a Chinese company but the customer service response was that they were never affiliated with Chinese organizations. The day I purchased the bottle on the site, my credit card number was used in other states and we had to block the card and get a new one. I waited on the transaction for the bottle to see if it was actually shipped and if the company was responsible for the credit card hack and after the item was not shipped like it was claimed, reported the firm as a scam.

Phishing

For the past couple of weeks, I've been receiving almost daily phone calls from people claiming they're calling "from the Marketplace" regarding our health insurance plan. It feels very spammy, and every time I start asking questions or challenging them, they hang up. The caller has a foreign accent and follows what appears to be the same script each time. They ask whether I received our health insurance packet containing our insurance card and a letter. The most recent call, I engaged more than I had in the past calls just to find out what information they had. They went into more detail claiming that government shutdowns and President Trump's "Big Beautiful" legislation caused problems with people receiving their packets this year. They asked me to verify my ZIP code. Instead of confirming it, I acted like I had forgotten it because we moved (didn’t say when). When I questioned why they wouldn't already have that information if they were calling from the Marketplace, they gave me the ZIP code from our previous house (where we lived last December/January), which doesn’t necessarily help since I haven’t updated our address everywhere. I said I need to call you back, what’s your number? They said they didn’t have a callback number. At that point, I just flat out asked why their call was showing up as a local phone number—previously it has even displayed multiple Mercy Hospital numbers and once used a local attorney's office (Neale & Newman)—and why they didn't have a number I could call back if they were really with the government. It confused the guy that I went from playing dumb to asking how to get off this list, so once again, they hung up. The calls almost always come from different local-looking numbers, most commonly beginning with 417-841

Online Purchase

I was looking online to renew my passport. The website I click on looked very much the the State Department's website that I have used in the past. I clicked on a link and it had me fill in all of my information. It was only recently when I went back to my email to do more digging (I had yet to receive my passport in the mail) that I found that the service had described that I was really only giving them the info so that they could "fill out the form" for me that I could otherwise have done for myself online for free. Another deceiving piece of it was that the amount I paid was exactly what it should cost me to renew my passport plus a credit card fee (which I've seen happen with other state agencies like the State of Illinois when I go to renew my registration every year). And now I can't get a human to answer the phone or an email and I've had to dispute the charge with my credit card company.
