To the person who says they met with me in February of 2007 or anybody else who thinks they met with me after 2006. It has come to my attorneys and I attention that Red Rock Corporate Solutions was using an person to claim he was me and siting my CPA license in New York. My attorney and I have proof I left Red Rock in 2006, this proof is in the form of an IRS Wage and Income Transcript for the year 2007 showing no income to me from Red Rock or any of its affiliates in any form such as W2, 1099 etc.
We are trying to get a handle on just how many people met with this man and thought they were meeting with me. If you have any information that can help me and the authorities with this matter please feel free to call me at 702-738-1250. I have been a CPA for well over 20 years and I rue the day I met Jon Montijo and I feel sorry for all the people he scamed but while I was there I rendered solid tax advice based on my years experience and I still have many tax clients from my time there that I have done great work for and if anybody likes I can furnish references. Please if you met anybody posing as Christopher J Provenzano CPA at Red Rock Corporate Solutions after December 31, 2006 then give me a call at 702-738-1250.

The response from Christopher J. Provenzano of him no longer working for RRCS is a blatant, flat out lie. I met with Christopher J. Provenzano when I started my corporations through Red Rock Corporate SCAM Solutions, in February 2007. This company takes advantage of honest people trying to better themselves by living the American Dream of owning their own business and starting out legit. I fell for it, just like the others. When a person has the dream of owning his/her own business, they eagerly bypass their own "due diligence". We've all done it. Jon Montijo's RRCS operates on this simple fault in people's blind hopes. It works well, and the thought of failing before even getting started, entices people to spend a lot more money now, "to avoid expensive lawsuits later" as they put it. They scare the average layperson into falling for the high pressure sales tactics used by Jon Montijo and his little minions.
The attorney working for RRCS, is not a DA, may have been or worked for one at one time, however, must not have been very good at it so he climbed under Jon Montijo's rock in order to keep his title as a lawyer. When I brought my lawyer in to speak with RRCS's attorney, he yelled and then stormed out like a child, promising to go to his office and get my refund check. He never returned and when we went to look for him 15 minutes later, in his office, just a couple hundred feet away, his secretary said that he was gone for the day. What? C'mon! Are you kidding me?
So beware. You can incorporate your own business through your Secretary of State's website for a fraction of the cost. I got scammed out of $2700.00. I do my own incorporations now for less than $400 and found more credit building advice and strategies FREE on the internet.
Good luck,
From one sucker to another.

Jon Montijo's remedy for trying to get around honoring his 100% refund guarantee, was to make a phone call to another banking representative to set up an application for us to get another line of business credit. We had already secured lines of our own after being handed the 3 bank business cards and then being turned down for business credit through their referrals. The question was not to get new lines established, we already had them, but to recieve a refund for the CBRS and BCB package that we did not want. He tricked us into believing that the loans that we personally secured on our own were not the loans that want to have as a corporation. That his contact, which through our application and personal credit history, did secure a business loan for the amount of $20,000 and that it would only report directly to our business credit, NOT our personal credit. This is an incredible farce! Banks loan you start-up business lines of credit based on your personal credit scores. After 6-8 months of good standing, then they stop reporting to your personal credit & then start reporting to your business through services such as Dunn & Bradstreet. I NEEDED TO INCLUDE THIS PART, BECAUSE I DO NOT WISH TO BE ACCUSED OF OMITTING THE FACT THAT JON MONTIJO DID SET UP A CONTACT FOR US WITH COMMUNITY BANK OF NEVADA. We could very well have walked into any bank to acquire the same outcome. In fact, we plan to approach Town & Country Bank, then a Nevada State Bank and then a few more. WE DID NOT PAY JON MONTIJO $2497.00 FOR A BUSINESS CONTACT WITH A BANK. SO BY HIM USING THIS AS A BASIS FOR NOT OWNING UP TO HIS WORD FOR A REFUND, IS ABSURD. We want our refund back for a service that they conned us into purchasing, by preying on our fear of personal financial failure.

THIS IS NOT AN HONORABLE MAN. PLEASE TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE. HE CLAIMS TO BE THE AUTHOR OF SEVERAL BOOKS AND "WROTE THE BOOK ON BUILDING CORPORATE CREDIT". I GOT A COPY AND IT RESEMBLES MORE OF AN EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK FOR NEW HIRES OR JUST A COMPILATION OTHER PEOPLES WORKS AND BASIC FACTS. HE UTILIZES HIS CUNNING FAST SALES TACTICS TO LURE YOU IN THEN INCORPORATES HIS FACULTY TO BULLY YOU INTO JUST "SUCKING IT UP". THEY USE THE BUYER BEWARE BLANKET DEFENSE OF "IF YOU DID NOT WANT THE SERVICE OR UNDERSTAND IT, THEN WHY DID YOU PAY FOR IT"! HE THREATENED OUR BUSINESSES, THAT HIS COMPANY HELP TO SET UP FOR US AND THEN, WHEN WE TRIED TO EXERCISE OUR RIGHT TO A REFUND PER HIS OWN OFFERING, JON MONTIJO, HIMSELF, THREATENED OUR PERSONAL FINANCIAL WELL BEINGS IF WE DID NOT RETRACT COMPLAINTS MADE ABOUT HIM AND HIS COMPANY THAT WE SENT TO THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU. WILL PREVENT THIS MAN FROM CONTINUING TO VICTIMIZE HONEST PEOPLE AND SCARING PEOPLE FROM ATTEMPTING SMALL BUSINESS. BE AWARE That forming a corporation can be done by using any lawyer or certified public accountant(CPA). Other than standard office fees, incorporation should not cost you more than $300. Expediting is a quick money scam. Your EIN (Employer Identification Number) or TIN (Tax Identification Number) are issued by the IRS for **FREE** You should never be charged for this service! Visit irs.gov. We were charged $25 dollars. My friend went to the same place, and they charged him $99, even when we already had EIN's and TIN's established under the names that we had incorporated. INCORPORATION SCAMS ARE QUICK MONEY MAKERS. THEY PROCESS YOUR PAYMENTS IMMEDIATELY IF DONE BY CREDIT CARD. THEY HAVE A RUNNER RUN TO THE BANK TO CASH YOUR CHECK. IN MOST CASES, YOUR CHECK HAS CLEARED SHORTLY AFTER YOU'VE EVEN CLEARED THE PARKING LOT!!!

... I think this lawyer is the real thing. Unlike our ole buddy 'Legal', he does know his phone number and how to spell his own name! (Sorry, just couldn't let that one slide by without a wisecrack. Legal was kinda fun to play with.)

I was told by an industry insider that John Montijo's business partner is a gentleman by the name of Al Rodriguez who is supposedly under investigation in the NADN scandal (likely the aforementioned DOJ investigation).
I don't know this for fact, but I would just say for any business consulting that you just do your due diligence with the Better Business Bureau and also of course check RipOffReport. It also helps to find other customers of the same consulting business who can tell you about their experience.
Bottom line... When it comes to your business - BE CAREFUL!
