Summary

Key Points:

As a result of a Federal Trade Commission lawsuit, the operators of The Credit Game, a credit repair scheme that cost consumers millions of dollars, face a lifetime ban from the credit repair industry in proposed court orders filed today.
Our proposed orders will permanently ban these fraudsters from peddling deceptive credit repair tactics to struggling consumers.
In its complaint against the Randos and their companies, the FTC alleged that the schemes operators provided false information to credit reporting agencies regarding consumers credit reports.
Additionally, the Randos perpetuated the harm to consumers by pitching their customers a supposed business opportunity to create their own bogus credit repair scheme.
