Fraudulent expeditor continues to operate


MYFOXNY.COM - Things got a bit rough when Fox 5's Arnold Diaz went to confront Queens businesswoman and convicted criminal Marah Howard.

Arnold wanted to ask her questions about a job she promised to do for a chiropractor and physical therapist.

But Arnold and his crew got a rude welcome from a guy inside the office, and even the NYPD got involved.

The sign outside Howard's office says they are licensed expeditors, but according to the Department of Buildings she surrendered her registration in 2007.

If you'd like to check out an expeditor, you can call the New York City Department of Buildings at 212-566-4120.

do you have a legal department?? Because, if you noticed, FOX took that video OFF THEIR WEBSITE and OFF THE AIR because they realized they made false alligations and falsely reported the story in a way that caused defamation to bother Marah and her business!!! You raelly should check these things out when you post stuff, before you get sued too...I would be careful not to post just ANYTHING you want on here...and I know for a fact there are several lawsuits filed against Fox for their inaccurate reporting, so if you dont want to be added to those suits, I would take off your pathetic attempt for newsreporting.

Why didn't she just tell that to the reporter then instead of throwing him out?

Sounds like bullshit.

Indeed, in 2007 she surrendered her registration to be an expediter - it's easy to look up on the DOB website. So apparently that means she can no longer do this business, so she is fraudulently representing herself as an expeditor and ripping off people. Sounds like she's the one that will need a lawyer!!

Are you kidding me??? If someone showed up to YOUR office, with a camera and lights in your face, shouting at you, its not really an "opportunity" to tell your side!!! Especially when your blind sided and you can barely understand what they are saying, because they are shouting off accusations rather then questions. You cant be SERIOUSLY asking such a stupid question, can you?? People STILL have rights, and they cant be taken away just because they arent able to respond on the spot! what world are u living in?

And if you search further, you will see that she can OWN an expediting company without being the expeditor, herself. I have tons of friends I know that work for expediting companies, and the owners dont do ANY expediting. They dont even know how to. But they dont HAVE to in order to own the company. Her license status is irrelevant to the company. You really should check your facts before you say stupid things.

Do you go and report a pizza place, because the owner doesnt know how to make pizza himself? Isnt HE falsely representing himself? ummm i dont think so. The same way he is offering the best pizza because he makes sure he hires the best pizza MAKERS, is the same way she would offer the best expediting by hiring the best expeditors. Some people are so naive...

I agree with anonymous... lol i guess that doesnt help much...
I dont know what happened for real, but I hate these shows because i know what its like to have an angry customer, and its not fair that news stories can do this. Maybe shes a sweet girl and just misguided. But if she has a business open, she should still be given the benefit of the doubt, and the customers issues should be worked out privately, not on public tv where it could destroy her business if they are wrong. no? it just seems wrong and I feel bad for the girl. There are real criminals out there. shouldnt they be wasting their time on them? it just doesnt seem fair, also since she already paid her dues from her past discretions. Thats just what i think..

All she had to do was explain why no one showed up at the BSA hearing, and if someone did, provide proof of such. If there was another person in the office qualified to expedite, then that person should have been produced.

I think we all know that Marah and her cronies are posting here.

without a doubt she's the one posting and trying to defend herself. and as far as the man who threw the reporter out he's an ass. he thought he was so big afterward and calling people up on the phone. someone should kick his ass.

Arnold Diaz, you've been doing investigative schtick for decades now. This is as high up the corporate ladder you've come. A guy your age getting thrown out on his ass? How long can you keep this up?

PS I am a White Male.

The reason why she surrendered her expediters license is due to pulling the same deceit for a plumbing company located in Manhattan at the time.
