From Maplewood Police today:
The Maplewood Police Department is actively investigating
a purported debt management company called “TGC Movement”
with a business office located at 1980 Springfield Ave, allegedly
involved in a scheme to defraud clients with promises
to reduce their debt by 35 percent for a nominal fee.
The department has received in excess of twenty complaints
reporting that the proprietor of the company, Mr. Germaine
Theodore, has taken money in advance, from clients in
exchange for a promise to settle their debt without actually
making payments to creditors and other debt holders.
The Maplewood Police Department is urging citizens to report
any interaction they may have had with “TGC Movement” or its
proprietor Mr. Germaine Theodore indicating suspicious or
fraudulent activity.
The Maplewood Police Department has been in contact with
the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office and Attorney General’s
Office concerning this investigation.
In addition, the Newark Star Ledger’s Karin Price Mueller,
who writes a column called “Bamboozled,” has written
a piece on the matter in the Monday, September 23, 2013
Business Section.
