I was at the Sportsbook in Durango Las Vegas Nv. This guy was sitting at the VIP section ( You need $350,000 minimum to sit here) I seen him many times. Sometimes by himself or with a lady. Betting on sports. One day I’m there gambling betting on sports & the guy approaches me in a friendly calm manner. He says his name is Sam & goes let me get your number so that we can later do business & I’ll get you on the right path. (Mind you I look young as [censored]) I’m new to Vegas so I’m like alright? Before we can exchange numbers he shows me his STN sports account that has bets of him consistently losing 10k, 8k, 5k, 2k, $700, etc. (he scrolls like 2 minutes of every large numbers) I’m like holy [censored] this guy does something like run a business or a few businesses. So I’m like okay cool, we exchange numbers.

About 1-2 weeks later he invites me out to Bel-Air a lounge located inside Durango casino. I go. He tried scamming a group of girls on a girls night by getting their information on their credit/ debit card when the bill came. I was hearing them go back & forth the girls were like no we’ll pay for our own stuff.

Fast forward the end of the night. I get one of those girls numbers he tried scamming… Behzad is doing his own thing looks drunk & is carried out by 2 girls out of the casino… ( I honestly thought it was a good opportunity for me to mention something to him about my dream of making a casino (NOT KNOWING HIS CRIMINAL HISTORY/ HIS SCAMS OR WHO HE IS)

Fast forward 1 week later the girl that I punched in my phone number on her phone hits me up. Asks how’d I meet Sam. I let her know I was at the sportsbooks & he invited me there at the lounge. She then sends me Scampulse.com [email protected] I see the 2 reports of a “credit card/ debit relief” & a “family/ friend emergency” (Real estate) scam. Then she screen shots the LA times article about Behzad being arrested by federal agents in 1998 for bank fraud, wire fraud & conspiracy to commit bank fraud.

I’m doing my research… I find his Instagram @samypoker it has a picture of him on his profile. & a video of him EVERYTHING ALIGNS WITH WHO YOU GUYS ARE TALKING ABOUT ON HERE
SAME PHONE NUMBER, SAME CRIMINAL BACKGROUND, SAME AREA, SAME GUY.

Same phone number, same face, same name … I don’t know how he has freedom in this country truthfully.

Met “Sam “ the sociopath organically at redrock sportsbook . When losing he would refer to nfl and nba athletes as “[censored]ing monkeys “ this was the first red flag .
“Sam “offered to pay off any bill that could be paid by checking account for 50% cash.

I gave him $500 cash to pay off a $1100 car repair bill . It later declined , before I contacted Sam he msged asking if I had friends or family I could refer to do the same, I said one friend that might be able. He msged daily , saying he wasn’t comfortable giving out he’s account number and if we didn’t give him more cash we would “both have to leave town “.

I posted the story on here ( scampulse ) and sent it him . He offered to pay half if the post was removed and half after . He refused to pay the second half . He also threatened me repeatedly.

Hey...this b[censored] also got me, 7023736622. Text me, I wanna hear more of your story.

- Los Angeles, CA, USA

This guy has called me a few times inquiring about a commercial space to lease. I mistook him for someone else I knew. Near the

end of February 2023 he called me with a cockamamie story that he was living in Las Vegas now and was in charge of a frozen bank

account with a very large deposit but the account was frozen. Although he could not withdraw money, he could make payments on

"ECH" type loans. He did not know what ECH meant and I couldn't understand how Google explained it. I was to pay him only half of

the money he paid on my behalf. He then made two transfers of $58,000 and $70,000 to a credit card account from which I had

borrowed a lot.. Bank of America showed that the deposits had been received and "posted" to my account, So I agreed to send him

$64,000. He asked me to make some of the payment in cash. He gave me me an account name "Golden Sunshine" in Las Vegas to

which I wired $44,000, and he sent a driver to my house to pick up $20,000 in cash. A week after the deposits were posted to my

credit card accounts I received a notification that the payments had been "returned." When I called Behzad to tell him, the guy who

always answered my calls promptly did not answer. He called 2 days later to "explain" what had gone wrong and how he was going

to "fix" it. He still calls me about every other day to promise that he will be returning the money soon. I have no doubt that he was

practiced in his con act and he must have scammed many others. I fell for it because I thought I knew the guy and did not believe

that any Persian would be involved in this type of activity.

His full name: Behzad Tehrani aka Behzad Teranie. He is a gambler (poker player) and known by the nickname Sam or Sammy in those circles. He still uses the same phone number 424/213-0835. He called me recently and said he wants to make amends by putting $55,000 in my account in return for $6000 he needed immediately. I dragged my feet waiting for the outcome and sure enough the payment was rejected about a

Affirmation week later. At that time, I insisted on having the conversation through FaceTime and took some photos which I can send to you. I also found some photos online, Googling his name and have attached the links below. The first link below shows that Behzad Tehrani AKA Franko Nigro was arrested by Federal Agents in 1998 for bank and wire fraud and conspiracy to commit fraud.

The fake payments that Behzad made to my credit card account were made from a

Chase bank account #832710318 The USBank account to which I wired the funds is in the name of a business called Golden

Sunshine (Entity Number: E22650992022-9). The business is an LLC owned by (Managing Member) Merly Ferrera. Her phone

number is 813/408-4226. I found the address 9830 W. Tropicana Ave., Apt. 324, Las Vegas, Nevada 89147. My search showed Merly's

Ex husband to be named Eric Ferrera with the phone number 813/842-3751. Registered Agent for the LLC is named as Marc Gohres

with the phone number 702/628-7279 The business is located at: 9205 West Russell Road, Building 3, Suite 240, Las Vegas, Nevada

89148.
