Part of the Federal Commssion’s case against Goodison and her accomplice Lawrence Goodison says:
Through websites and other online and print promotional materials, Defendants falsely represented that their businesses, American Bill Pay Organization and American Benefits Foundation were, or were closely affiliated with, the federal government and official federal government debt relief programs. Defendants touted a supposed program that would provide up to $75,000 in government payments to consumers’ creditors, and misappropriated government agency seals and the President’s image, voice, and signature. Defendants leveraged their false government affiliation representations to convince consumers to use their debt relief and credit repair services, and extracted advance fees from consumers of approximately $1,000.
Defendants extracted advance fees from many consumers but provided no services; their offers
of debt relief and credit repair by way of $75,000 in government payments to consumers’
creditors were entirely false.
Ms Goodison was arrested pending an extradition hearing.
