Profile Info

UCC-1 filed without consent and no contract. I have reached out to Fleetsmart for a termination letter, which Mathew Ama, the supervisor, tried to extort me into cash payment and signing a contract to just 'test them out for 60 days.' Phoenix Freight & Logistics LLC is being subjected to extortion by US Business Services, aka FleetSmart.

FleetSmart filed an unauthorized and fraudulent UCC-1 Financing Statement against my business without consent, without any agreement, and without any legal basis under UCC §9-509. After contacting FleetSmart to demand removal of this unauthorized filing, FleetSmart refused to terminate the UCC-1 unless my company pays money and officially signs a contract with them. This constitutes: extortion, coercion for financial gain, fraudulent encumbrance, abuse of the UCC system, deceptive and unfair business practices, and a wrongful attempt to obtain funds by threatening harm to my business's credit, financing, reputation, and operations. A company cannot legally file a fraudulent lien, then demand payment to remove it.

This is a criminal act in many states and a violation of federal law concerning unfair and deceptive business practices. My business has never signed any agreement, never received funds, never authorized any lien, and never granted US Business Services permission to file a UCC-1. US Business Services' filing was fraudulent from the beginning, and their demand for payment to release it is illegal extortion.

They are changing their LLC name every year to avoid detection, as I have discovered from the extensive Better Business Bureau complaints. I am requesting an investigation and enforcement, as this conduct is causing ongoing harm to my business.
