Nesiamotu 2: Electric Boogaloo
So I was curious and decided to check out Greg's company again. Turns out it's no longer dissolved! He's started it all right back up again with a few updates to his information, and fixing some big fat lies I mentioned in my initial post
So to start off, he has now fixed whatever caused his company to go delinquent. Things that could cause this in a company include not paying fees or not submitting a profit report at the end of the year. He left his company delinquent long enough that it had actually been administratively dissolved
Sometime between my last post on this and now, he reactivated his company and updated his name as James Jackson (he did not update this when he changed his name so the company was in the wrong name until now) and also updated his address which was his previous address despite him having moved from that address within a month of creating this company. The phone number associated with the account also contains the same digits as Greg's, I don't remember if this was an update on an older number or not
This Alexander Vace person is still supposedly involved in the company however, his email address is no longer the primary address for the company, it's now Greg's laughable "Onision" Gmail (how professional). Vace's address is a virtual office and is likely an employee of The Grady Firm who uses the same virtual address for their Beverly Hills branch. The Grady Firm is an online lawyer firm which has a department designed to help people create LLCs much like Nesiamotu is. Considering Vace's email is no longer associated with Nesiamotu, and the fact that the firm seems pretty strictly on the "consultant" side, it's possible he barely had any real involvement in the whole thing and Greg just included his name because he was an idiot enough to think he had a real lawyer and business partner. I'm now thinking that maybe it wasn't nefarious at all that Greg didn't keep his company up, it was likely his total stupidity on how the world works which caused him to think this Vace guy would handle everything and didn't actually know his company was delinquent because his email was not associated with the company for correspondence and neither was his actual address preventing anyone from being able to contact him for a while. I can find no records of an Alexander Vace at the company though so either he's faked it, or he's just one of the lawyers/consultants who work there and are not listed (according to LinkedIn they have 1-10 employees but only three are listed, two are the faces of the company it seems from their yelp reviews and one's a random other guy) and/or also potentially uses an alias
Also also they have a section on CPAs, my guess? Greg found and used them to try and sort his IRS issues instead of going to a proper lawyer in person then decided to make a company. He was potentially upsold by the guy acting as his CPA considering Alexander Vace was listed as a CPA at one point. Potentially, as I suspected initially, this company really was a way for James Jackson AKA Onision to try and cheat the IRS
