Scam, but not the real Mark Stevens
ATTORNEY MARK STEVENS - IDENTITY FRAUD - FAMILY /FRIEND EMERGENCY SCAM
On March 10, 2023, a female person posing as our Home Healthcare worker friend caring for my elderly wife called my cell phone just after 8:00 AM in a very distraught, embarrassed, emotional voice saying she had been involved in a car accident with a pregnant woman on the way to work.
She was embarrassed to admit the accident was her fault and pleaded not to tell anyone because the police had charged and arrested her for DWI after testing .09 blood alcohol content at the scene of the accident. She was allegedly calling from the courthouse and needed me to speak with her attorney.
About 20-minutes later, an alleged attorney called and introduced himself as “Mark Stevens” (a/k/a Scam Perpetrator) Case No. 030480G, Phone: 786-724-3588 ext. 541 with an alleged website at: www.byebyedwi.com,
However, the real Attorney Mark Stevens has an office in New Hampshire. Phone: 603-893-0074. www.byebyedwi.com,
"Mr. Stevens" represented himself as a friend of my Healthcare friend's attorney. Both men had allegedly gone to law school together. “Mr. Stevens” represented himself as having specialized expertise in reducing the DWI charge to a misdemeanor as the reason for his involvement.
Next, Bail money in the amount of $8500 would be needed ASAP to prevent our Healthcare friend from spending the weekend in jail. Later that day the pregnant woman was allegedly taken to the hospital with severe abdominal pain and allegedly had a miscarriage. "Mark Stevens" said the pregnant women was not pressing charges. “Mr. Stevens” negotiated a cash settlement in the amount of $10,000. However, she allegedly needed $5000 to repair car damages ASAP.
Next, the Healthcare friend “impostor” came on the phone to repeat her request to please not tell anyone because she would likely get fired if the word got out. "Mark Stevens" said not to worry as the $8500 in Bail money would be returned to me in two weeks and the $5000 would be repaid by check from my friend's insurance policy in one month.
"Mark Stevens" provided specific detailed instructions that must be followed precisely for each TIME CRITICAL transaction. 1) Withdraw cash from the bank, 2) place the money in a small box like a VHS video mailer or padded manila envelope secured with shipping tape, 3) clearly mark the package with the words LEGAL DOCUMENTS and add weight or a couple magazines so handlers wouldn't be curious enough to check actual contents.
"Mark Stevens" arranged for Uber drivers to pick up the first two $8500 and $5000 packages at the hospital where I was visiting my wife who had been taken there for treatment by ambulance.
I took pictures of both Uber drivers and their driver's license for chain of custody purposes. The next request was for $3500 to cover my friend's alleged hotel and vehicle towing expenses to be expressed mailed via UPS, next day delivery, zip code 34208.
"Mark Stevens" final request for yet another $3500 was decisively rejected by me. The progression of this scam was like a dripping faucet. Each request was urgent. Extending a helping hand to a good friend in need has energized my will to report this heinous experience in hopes that the perpetrators will be held accountable.
