Post: NC LLCs & anonymity

Hi y'all- I'm getting my legal structures & privacy in place and own an STR in NC. The LLC would be owned by an anonymous LLC in another state. It looks like no matter what, my actual name will need to be filed on annual report with the NC LLC (even using a registered agent). Has anyone found a workaround to that?

Glad to hear someone is finally taking this up, but I'm curious why it would be Homeland Security and not the SEC?


I'm not sure Dan.  I reached out to the SEC too and have not gotten traction yet.  Homeland Security is also working on the Norada cases. 

Homeland covers: Stopping financial fraud, illegal trade and the sale of fake goods to protect the U.S. economy, American businesses and your money.

      This one has been going on a while. I think BP is a great place to get people publicly together and then they can create a private group. We are seeing that with investors in Norada, David Zook ATM investments and others are posting on forums like BP and reddit and creating private groups to try and stir the pot and get actions taken. In this instance the judgments (20+/-) are already issued, now its a matter of collecting while the individual continues with their training programs and buying loans. If someone can get the SEC or another financial division to take notice then that could change the playing field dramatically. 


     Homeland Security is taking the case!

     Yes, he is slippery.  I don't want him to victimize others either.

    Blows my mind how he is out there still teaching classes and going on as nothing happened but it sounds like these debts are not getting substantially paid down.


     Yup! It is ludicrous!

    As many of us know, one of the main reasons he's able to continue on is with the help of this other self proclaimed criminal

     Chad - I hadn't seen that before.  Thanks for sharing. 

     I am 1 of the over 20 people owed over $2 Million Dollars.  Are you another one ? Let's work together to put this creep out of business.  The investors duped by Norada are getting traction...we can too!  I won my default judgement against Carson In March 2021.

    I am putting due diligence and know that we have an outsized impact if we band together in a coordinated efforts.  I know that it's embarrassing to admit getting scammed, so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PM me so that we can work together and end Carson's ongoing efforts to take advantage of investors.  Congrats to the investors who have recovered $$ already!! 

    Here is a subset of court cases..... Gerry Cohen, Al Curiel, Beth Hale, Bella Scanland, Chris Frank, Michele Orgell, Kristin Cook, Gar Parries, Ryan Snelson Daniel Flores , Ronald Rohde, Aaron Mazzrillo. Jon Soucy Mike Layne Patrick Folker . Todd LaPierre, Adam Adams , Patrick Desjardins, Ronald Rohde

    No investment will ever guarantee a return - if they do then run for the hills.


     Yes, there is a difference from actually your investing your money and failing....and not investing it at all!

    most of these JV's I see don't guarantee returns.. as that would be a REG A filing. most of them disclose the 50 ways you can lose your money.. ? just curious..

    Yes, cause nos. D-1-GN-19-001705, D-1-GN-19-001694

    received a default on 7/23

    @Ronald Rohde i see that you are also an attorney in Texas.  Were you able to recover your money?

    From an appearance on Youtube 4 months ago: 

    "Imagine transforming a financial crisis into a beacon of hope. That's the journey of Scott Carson, our remarkable guest this week, who invites us into his world of distressed debt investing. Scott, affectionately known as the note guy, shares his transformative leap from mortgage broker to an industry titan post-2008 financial crisis. His billion-dollar success is not just about the numbers; it's about the lives changed through his commitment to keeping families in their homes and guiding investors toward financial independence. We get personal with Scott and unearth the compassion that fuels his business, making profits while making a difference."


     That makes me want to vomit.
