California men accused of peddling millions of nonexistent masks in alleged coronavirus scam face charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, authorities said.
The company incorporated in 2017 as a real investment firm, the complaint says. A phone number listed on the site was answered by an adult telephone service.
The investor alerted authorities, and an undercover agent posing as a businessman visited an office on April 13 in Rancho Cucamonga, east of Los Angeles, where Allen and Revolorio said they had boxes containing 40,000 surgical masks, according to the complaint.
