New potential scam “Correctional Services Network of America” targeting sex offenders
Members are reporting receiving post cards from a Nevada based LLC called “Correctional Services Network of America” in the same style as “ClearMyCase”.
The company is using the Florida Sex Offender’s Registry as a marketing list to solicit vulnerable individuals, offering a “review” of their registration status for $299… a “savings” of $500 off their regular price of $899.00.
In red letters and ALL CAPS their marketing materials claim, “THIS COULD BE YOUR CHANCE TO BE REMOVED FROM THE SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY.”
Although their marketing materials refer to their “firm”, they are NOT a law firm. They claim to provide “access to SELF-HELP” services at the client’s specific direction. They claim to be “america’s [NOTE: YES, THEY DID NOT CAPITALIZE AMERICA] leading case review, document preparation, mediation and consulting firm.” Ummmm… yeah… America’s leading…. OOOOKKKKK.
Please be weary of these solicitations from businesses claiming they can help get you removed from the sex offender registry!

I wasted $299.00 and a lot of time on this site. Where do I go to report this website as a scam?
Contact your state police and the FBI
I received a letter for a lawyer in Orlando named Joseph Chloupek. He claims to be filing some kind of suit and he wants your money. Anyone heard of this guy?
Yes – Estes-Hightower is the firm. We are advising members to IGNORE this solicitation.
Got one a few months ago here in Texas! Seemed real but were already doing our own process!
$299 says it’s the same guy from Clear my Case !. Just changed some Company Info !!!. This type of stuff should be ILLEGAL and whoever tries it Should be ARRESTED for it !!. But it is AGAINST SEX OFFENDERS, So nobody will care !!. Thank God for people like Gail and everyone in the group !!.
Any glimmer of hope to be removed from the registry can be obtained and/or explained by a reputable law firm operating in the state of your offense. Keep one on retainer and they will alert you to any significant findings that may be worth attention. Other than that, there is no hope. Unless the registry were abolished. And we all know THAT ain’t gonna happen anytime soon.
I believe I traced this website down to a Bail Bondsman in Hobbs, NM. If this is in fact true, it would be highly unsettling. Please read through and try and follow along. I successfully and positively identified the people responsible behind other websites in the past so please understand i’m pretty good at this stuff.
I would like to point out that with a little digging, we can start to get a name associated with this “anonymous” shady website business.
The domain record is open, but it’s showing assigned to New Mexico. This is most likely the webmaster’s/website designers contact info found here which matches the name given on the bottom of the website… not sure yet.
https://who.is/whois/csna.us
I checked for matching alternative business using the same phone number listed on the website.
Virtual office address is:
5940 South Rainbow Blvd
Las Vegas, Nevada 89118
Phone number 800-883-2249 comes back mostly only to this business. However, it does make an appearance on a WHOIS record collecting website at this address:
https://www.legalcube.org/csna.us
The WHOIS record archived on that page shows and address of 420 E Main St Hobbs , New Mexico , 88240, which doesn’t actually exist. Looking at the Google Maps, i do see Main Street does in fact exist, but the address numbers don’t reach 420. It’s a small street.
What is strange to me is the impriusa website mentioned in the current WHOIS record is:
ImpriUSA? Who is that?
http://profile.infofree.com/biz/NM/Hobbs/Impri+USA/11140001781504 (Notice the Hobbs location).
According to this website, an address listed for them which is different from the one reflected on the current WHOIS record for the domain.
https://who.is/whois/impriusa.com
Okay, so who is this?
Well, let’s look further:
Impri USA located in Hobbs, NM
115 E Taylor St
Hobbs, NM 88240
Google street view that location and you start to get confused… i know i did. According to Trulia, Homes.com and other websites that is a house address. The only house in the vicinity is a Bail Bondsman place and that is on the corner. The rest of the buildings are a strip mall and various businesses. So i decided to look at the “2008” version of this location and what do I see? A house. The same business was a house. Same building. But that address is 118. Where the hell is 115? Well.. as it turns out it’s the Strip mall. The B&B Bondsman place appears to have started at one part of that building and expanded over time. When the house went up for sale, they must have purchased it and moved in next door to the strip mall.
The following Search Phrase “b&b bail bonds hobbs nm” clued me into the address structure for the strip mall. It’s not Suite 1, 2, 3 or Suite A, B, C like most places. In fact, each “Unit” has it’s own street number. Starting from 114 and through through 117.
The results show the same business name associated with multiple addresses (the strip mall).
Given the dates of the WHOIS records and other data from various websites and the data I can gather so far, it pretty much points out to me that this directly associated with that Bails Bondsman business.
Now to find out who’s behind that business. Well, someone’s sued in the past, so there’s a name we can glean from that.

Searching the name Erasmo Valles and Linda Rice separately, i start getting a glimpse into their lives. I have found a possible connection between this Erasmo and another in San Antonio, TX being a former Petty Officer, but that might be unfounded. However, the names are connected to both San Antonio and Hobbs, NM leading me to believe this is the same person.
With enough preliminary digging it’s highly likely to confirm the identities of those who are associated with the shady and potentially illegal business.
Here’s a funeral page for his mom which includes the connection between the same person and the two cities.

I hope this information is valuable and useful.
I’m impressed with Your skip tracing abilities. Cudos to you for taking the time to find the source of the scum.
