The FTC named
Sereika Savariau and
Lawrence Goodison in a case against a phony debt relief and credit repair scheme that allegedly deceived consumers about non-existent federal programs to pay off their bills and fix poor credit. The case was originally brought in August 2014 against the
American Bill Pay and
American Benefits Foundation. The amended complaint was accepted by the court, and the case remains in litigation. The FTC is seeking to have the scam permanently shut down, and obtain refunds for consumers who paid for the scammers’ bogus debt and credit services.
