Do any of you remember the Laray Carr scam from two years ago? It was the most involved get-rich-quick scam I've ever seen, but apparently it worked, because Quincy Carr is back — this time as Quinn Rhodes of Niche Age Media. Victoria Strauss has posted a very thorough recap of Laray Carr, and the results of her investigation into Niche Age Media, over at Writer Beware.
Back during the Laray Carr fallout, I had the name and number for a detective who was handling the case. At the time he asked me to send any Laray Carr victims his way. I am going to find his contact information (buried somewhere in my archived emails), inform him of Quincy Carr's newest scam, and see if there is still a pending investigation. I'll let you know what I find out!

I was scammed by QUINN RHODES of NICHAGE MEDIA for $750. Who do I send my information to? Can you email me at j.mousseau@hotmail.com
Jessica, I have yet to go through my archived emails to find that information. It's been such a busy year, I just keep forgetting! I'll let you know as soon as I find it.
