We had 2 attempts of signups for VoIP service, 2 days in a row. On the surface it looks legit, one more then the other, but the persons had stolen identities.


One was a 73 year old gentleman from Grand Prairie TX, the communication ended when we requested a copy of the government issued ID, IRS SS-4 and bank statement or utility bill.


The other was also an 83 year old lady from Detroit MI, but this is where things got a lot more interesting. We were provided with LLC Certificate of Good Standing for APEX VOIP SOLUTIONS LLC, front and back of Michigan Driver License, and a 4 month old copy of a phone/internet bill. We checked FCC 499 and what do you know — APEX VOIP SOLUTIONS LLC is listed and current, but when we got in touch with the daughter of the 83 year old, we were assured that this is impossible.


APEX VOIP SOLUTIONS LLC even has a registered domain name and a website. This scam runs deep.


In both cases the signups were from VPN IPs and both callers had a slight accent, never asked any questions, not even about price. Both wanted a user/pass for an unlimited package on their own device/PBX.


I hope you understand I am not going to share the names of the victims here, but do your research.

This is crazy
 
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) unanimously approved a Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) on April 30, 2026, to strengthen "Know-Your-Customer" (KYC) rules for voice service providers.

The comment period has passed, but will be months before we know if the rules will go into effect.

Hello Everyone,
I am writing directly from the management team at APEX VOIP SOLUTIONS LLC to respond to Marcin Groszek’s post. While Marcin is busy trying to paint our company as a fraud risk due to VPN signups, his own unprotected server reveals a massive, deeply disturbing truth.
Marcin’s wide-open directory at orange.voipplus.net:8441/RECORDINGS/ORIG/ contains thousands of live call recordings. We have downloaded and listened to these logs, and they expose the exact anatomy of an offshore, inbound tech-support and financial scam ring.
The audio files prove exactly how this criminal operation works on VoipPlus's network:
  1. Postcard / Mailer Traps: The bad actors mail fraudulent postcards to elderly Americans tricking them into calling an inbound number.
  2. "Card Ban" Deception: When victims call in, scammers use scripts claiming the victim's card or bank account has been banned or locked.
  3. Merchant Account Draining: The agents coerce victims into handing over fresh credit card details, which are immediately run through rogue merchant processing accounts to steal their funds.
The voice traffic on these recordings consists of offshore agents handling these illicit transactions.
Marcin is trying to act like a security gatekeeper, but his open server proves VoipPlus is actively providing the telecommunications pipeline for international fraud syndicates. By hosting an unprotected web index filled with active scam operations, he is exposing sensitive financial data, violating compliance regulations, and facilitating elder abuse on his own network.
APEX VOIP SOLUTIONS LLC is an absolute victim of corporate identity theft. Bad actors are using stolen driver's licenses and our public corporate registry to look legitimate. We have already handed over all logs, VPN IPs, and copies of Marcin’s exposed directory directly to the FBI’s IC3 division and the FTC.
Marcin, instead of pointing fingers at companies dealing with identity theft, you need to look at your own routing architecture. We demand you immediately shut down this illegal traffic, protect consumer data, and explain to this forum why your servers are actively hosting inbound merchant fraud.
Sincerely,
Management
APEX VOIP SOLUTIONS LLC
