BBB reports on known significant government actions involving business' marketplace conduct.
On April 10, 2019, owner and operator of Freedom by Faith Ministries LLC - Anthony Carta of Detroit plead no contest to seven felonies for his role in a racketeering scheme as a habitual offender. Carta pleaded no contest to the following:
• One felony count of Conducting a Criminal Enterprise
• One felony count of False Pretenses, $20,000 or more but less than $50,000
• Five felony counts of False Pretenses, $1,000 or more but less than $20,000
Because Carta plead guilty to all charges as a Third Offense Habitual Offender, this may allow his sentence to double the maximum. The Attorney General states Carta and the business defrauded approximately 100 victims of more than $300,000 by employing a Ponzi-type scheme with promises of short sales, mortgage modifications and other real estate scams. Carta has agreed to pay restitution of $658,626.17. Sentencing is scheduled for 5/5/2019 in the 6th Circuit Court.
UPDATE:
Anthony Carta was sentenced 5/15/2019 as a habitual offender to nine to 40 years in prison for his role in a racketeering scheme that robbed more than 100 victims of nearly $660,000.
