twitterLV firm accused of scam
Monday, March 26, 2001 | 11:15 a.m.
The Nevada Attorney General's office sued to stop a Las Vegas company from soliciting and misleading black consumers into believing that a federally mandated government program exists to provide them with alleged billions of dollars in "slave reparations."
In a Clark County District Court lawsuit, the state, which issued a consumer alert saying the program is a hoax, sued Capital Connections Inc., which it said operated a money retrieval business at 9030 W. Sahara Ave., Suite 200, and three of its alleged principals. The defendants could not be reached for comment on the allegations.
