Please be advised that Geoffrey Hull (real name) a.K.A. The Carlyle Motor Club a.K.A. Luxotic Motoring a.K.A. Red Carpet Motoring a.K.A. Michael Brantley is the EXACT same person: Geoffrey Hull, real, legal name with last know home address of 5350 Playa Vista Drive, Playa Vista, CA 90094. Geoffrey Hull is actually an African-American male and is in his late 20's of medium build. He graduated from USC (what a shame!) with a B.S.in business (yes, he is an accredited Bull Sh*er) and is thus a smooth-talking scammer.
It would be in your best interest to avoid any business with this entity as soon as possible and report him immediately to the authorities listed below:
*If you have been contracted by Geoffrey Hull (real name) a.K.A. The Carlyle Motor Club a.K.A. Luxotic Motoring a.K.A. Red Carpet Motoring a.K.A. Michael Brantley a.K.A. David Van Patten*:
1. You are probably have a listing on Swap-a-Lease.com or other lease assumption website. It is interesting that Geoffrey has scammed so many people from Swap-a-Lease that they have sent out an email to all of their customers warning them about his scam. See below. Call Swapalease and tell them Geoffrey Hull now as The Carlyle Motor Club is again running the same illegal auto subleasing scam and is using their site for leads again.
2. He probably told you your vehicle has 'negative equity' in these 'tough market environments.' Tell him you did some research and found out what that he is a criminal and is running an illegal subleasing scam. See below.
3. He'll act like your best friend until he gets the car, after that - he's scammed you. Say goodbye to that luxury automobile because it's being shipped to future wanna-be Pablo Escobar Drug Dealers, Pimps or Las Vegas Strippers and Prostitutes. All of whom will abuse the car, not make payments, drive uninsured, get the cars impounded and worst of all get into an accident with you still being the legally responsible Owner of your vehicle for all damages. Can we say multi-million dollar liability lawsuit from injured parties?
4. Disregard the website. It's a hoax like he is. He'll say he has a boss, he doesn't. He's the head of an illegal scam. The BBB rating he uses was fraudulently obtained through a bribe to a BBB Representative because his scam is of course neither "licensed, insured and bonded" in CA or Kalamazoo. (See consumer complaints on the BBB to see the unscrupulousness of this PRIVATE company - no the BBB is not a governmental agency.)
5. Delete his e-mail and MOST IMPORTANTLY follow the "5-POINT GEOFFREY HULL F*K YOU PLAN below":
*guidelines to some resolution if you were scammed*
1. Revoke your Limited Power of Attorney IMMEDIATELY.
2. Demand Geoffrey to return your vehicle IMMEDIATELY - otherwise report the car as stolen/embezzled (see Point 5 below). It is absolutely imperative that the vehicle be recovered. If you have Lojack, put that knowledge to use!
3. Please be advised that Geoffrey does not pick up any phone #'s - he's got the one listed above, and the following on his Blackberry: 310-880-5990 or 310-880-2240. He won't pick up unless you're one of his mid-level goons/people that he sends cars to, or people he sends to pick up new cars (watch out for Alvin Ellerbee 818-694-2052).
4. File the amount you deserve (up to $10,000) in your state's small claims court and identify Geoffrey Hull as the Defendant and Liable Party. Any amount in excess of this, a civil lawsuit is necessary.
5. GOOD NEWS: There are plenty of the good guys looking for this THIEF and SCAMMER (CA D.M.V., LAPD, FBI, etc to name a few). If you have any information or have been scammed (latter is likely) please call the lead investigator on this case who actually arrested Geoffrey and is aware of his identity:
George Zosimo
California DMV Investigations
(818) 266-9988
Or
Detective Lopez
Los Angeles Police Department - Auto Crimes
(310) 482-6351
*since geoffrey hull is in violation of his probation and a warrant is already issued for his arrest there is a bounty on him so if you cooperate and he is arrested you will be rewarded*
6. Notify the attorney general. Try the Secret Service ECTF, FTC, BBB, LAPD, your local PD. Feel free to warm call them - they're job is partly to put away sleazebags like Geoffrey Hull.
7. Remind him he's a THIEF and SCAMMER and that you will gladly testify at any trial set-up to prosecute him. People like these don't deserve to steal from other people's hard work and success.
8. As an FYI - the District Attorney is aware of this scam artist. Feel free to check in with the district attorney's office.

*BELOW IS AN E-MAIL PREVIOUSLY SENT BY SWAPALEASE TO THEIR CUSTOMERS on April 10 - You can verify the validity of this e-mail by contacting them directly*
Dear Swapalease Customer,
It has been brought to our attention that an outfit known as Red Carpet Motoring has been contacting consumers selling vehicles via online listing services including Swapalease.com on a fraudulent basis. As it applies to lease transfers they are essentially writing their own lease transfer contracts, as opposed to the proper way of transferring a lease under the supervision of the leasing company.in fact this method of transferring ones lease or subleasing is often a breach of contract and may be illegal.
Thankfully, this practice is easy to spot because the only way to properly transfer a lease is through the leasing company with no exceptions. Put differently, anyone who tells you they have another way to officially transfer your lease outside of or without the knowledge of the leasing company should not be dealt with. Note that even though the Swapalease.com New Lease Program process differs from a typical lease transfer, the transaction is handled in conjunction with the lease company.
Please note the following when transferring your vehicle lease that will ensure the transaction is ultimately handled properly enhancing Swapalease.com user experience
1. Contact Swapalease.com when initiating a lease transfer and we will explain how to properly transfer your leased vehicle.
2. Not only does contacting Swapalease.com help make certain you are transferring your vehicle lease correctly, but also aids legitimate lease buyers from an availability perspective.
3. Lease transfers properly executed will always be completed under the supervision of the leasing company.
Thank for your business and please feel free to contact us should you have any questions.
