recieved an email stated "per (business owners name) instruction I am forwarding the attached invoice for your Q2 2025 R&D consulting services and executive coaching engagement. Please review and process payment at your earliest convenience. Regards, Anthony L Hearn Business Manager Crest Analytics Consulting LLC 1901 Pennsylvania Ave, Washington, DC 20006. They had added what looked like a forwarded email from the business owner asking them to forward the invoice to our billing department with the email address. They also attached an invoice of $49000.00 for services rendered.

They claim that they successfully completed the specialized R&D Consulting services and executive coaching program as contracted.They pretended to forward an email from the owner of our company with an invoice attached to pay.

- Nags Head, NC, USA • Aug 18, 2025

A company claiming to be CREST ANALYTICS CONSULTING LLC sent an invoice for nonexistent services. They sent a fraudulent invoice requesting $49,780 for "Operations involve comprehensive analysis, strategic planning and implementation of initiatives to boost innovation and growth inside the organization. We also provide marketing and business research and development Services from (April 1st - June 30th, 2025)."

- Boston, MA, USA • Aug 17, 2025

I was forwarded an email chain with the former owner of the company, claiming that we owed $50,000 for Q1 consulting activities. The owner in question has not been involved in the company for three years now, and would not have engaged a consulting firm on our behalf. I some of the data analysis for this company and know we did not engage a consulting firm.

The email thread attempted to get me to pay the $50,000 at the request of my "boss," and gave their banking information for an ACH. The email looked legitimate until you paid attention to emails, and the fact that the owner listed is not involved in the company anymore.

- Mechanicsville, VA, USA • Aug 16, 2025

We received an email from CREST ANALYTICS CONSULTING LLC about the services: "Operations involve comprehensive analysis, strategic planning and implementation of initiatives to boost innovation and growth inside the organization. We also provide marketing and business research and development Services from (April 1st - June 30th, 2025)". We never ordered this kind of services before.

I just got an email from this organization this morning claiming to be a bill for an HOA fee for the month of August. The first obvious red flag is that we don't have any HOAs in my neighborhood, but bill and especially the website look VERY legit.

The website claims that they have been trusted by communities since 1985. Yet, after a little research, I found that their domain name was just registered on July 19, 2025 (probably the biggest red flag that this is a scam).

- Atascadero, CA, USA • Aug 15, 2025

Rec'd email forwarding an PDF invoice for R&D consulting services and executive coaching engagement.and said that my boss had asked for it to be sent to me for payment. We never ordered anything like this. I didn't open the PDF and since I didn't want to save it to my pc, am unable to upload it.

It came from:

I received an email with an invoice attached with our company name put in there. They said and showed me an email chain of our president referring for the scammer to contact me to pay for an invoice for strategic initiatives for Q1 2025. The strange thing about the email was that he used Crest Analytics Consulting LLC, 1901 Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20006, which looks to be a real company, but his emails show to be [email protected] and he used another email where he used [email protected]. Those are the red flags. Completely fake. Basically asked for $49,780. Hope this helps someone.

I received an official-looking letter from my "Lender." They knew the amount of my Home Equity Loan and the name of the bank - PSECU. They also listed a Mortgage ID number, but I don't think that is correct. They say, "We have been attempting to contact you regarding a matter of importance. Please Call 1-800-516-1090." I googled the phone number and it turned up on scam lists.

- Elyria, OH, USA • Aug 07, 2025

A PDF invoice for "...analysis, strategic planning..." was sent with the following email:

Could you please confirm when the payment for the current invoice which includes coaching, development services, and Oscar Perez-Galicia’s premium membership will be processed?

The detailed breakdown is provided in the thread below. If it’s possible to complete the payment today, that would be greatly appreciated. Please let us know your expected timeline.

Details from an earlier email in the thread:

Was this originally sent to [email protected] (a valid email from our company) as discussed during setup? Just want to make sure it went to the right place.

If not, could you forward it there when you get a chance?

Good day,

Attached are the invoice for Business Coaching and Development services and the VIP membership for Dustin Gruetter, as previously requested. I've also included an updated W-9 form for your records.

Could you kindly confirm whether payment has already been issued? If not, we would be grateful if you could provide an estimated timeline, as the amount has been outstanding for some time.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
