Security Alert: Verify Communications from First Pier

Scammers have been impersonating First Pier for over a year, using unauthorized lookalike websites that include our real company name and Portland, Maine business address without authorization. They contact people through WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook, Instagram, SMS, and email, posing as our employees and running several scam variations: fake remote work and "tasks," fake unpaid wages, and fake website sales under a sub-brand called "AI Revolution."

For additional information about this type of fraud, please see the Federal Trade Commission's alert: Task Scams Create the Illusion of Making Money

How to Know You've Been Targeted

  • You were contacted on WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, or SMS by someone claiming to work for First Pier.
  • The website you were sent to is anything other than firstpier.com (no hyphen, no extra words).
  • You were offered remote work, "tasks," wages, or commissions that required you to make deposits, buy products, or send cryptocurrency first.
  • You were told you were buying a website, a "website package," or a product called "AI Revolution" from First Pier.
  • You paid for any deliverable through cryptocurrency, wire transfer, or to a personal account.
  • The person you spoke with used one of the aliases listed below.

Known Scammer Aliases and Fake Brand Names

The people impersonating First Pier have used these names. None of them work for us. We have no employees or contractors by these names, and we do not sell any product by these names.

People:

  • Alex Haber
  • Alex
  • Idan
  • "Support floor manager"

Fake products or sub-brands:

  • AI Revolution
  • Any "website" being sold under the First Pier name (we do not sell pre-built websites)

Known Fraudulent Websites

The following domains are not affiliated with First Pier. We did not create them and have no control over them. We are actively working with hosting providers and law enforcement to remove them, but new ones appear regularly.

  • first-pier.com (note the hyphen — our real site is firstpier.com, no hyphen)
  • firstpierppc.com
  • firstpierai.com
  • firstpierpcpincpro.com
  • firstpierpcpincpro.cfd
  • firstpierpcpincpro.icu
  • firstpier-dataseo.com

Our only website is firstpier.com. Any other "First Pier" website is fraudulent.

Known Fraudulent Contact Details

  • Email: alex.h@first-pier.com (any address ending in @first-pier.com is fraudulent; our real addresses end in @firstpier.com)
  • WhatsApp: +1 555 8181 218
  • Any phone number, email, or social account not listed on firstpier.com/contact

Protect Yourself

  • Check the Official Website: Our official and only website is FirstPier.com. Always confirm you're on the correct site.
  • Official Channels Only: First Pier exclusively communicates through verified email addresses ending in @firstpier.com, clearly listed on our website. We never use @first-pier.com (with a hyphen).
  • Ignore Unsolicited Contacts: We do not initiate contact via social media, messaging apps (including Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Telegram), SMS, or third-party websites. Please disregard and report any unsolicited messages from these channels.
  • No Cryptocurrency: We never accept payment in Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency. If you were asked to pay in crypto for a First Pier service, it was a scam.
  • No Pre-Built Websites: We are a custom agency that works with verified clients on contracted engagements. We do not sell pre-built websites, "website packages," or "AI Revolution" through messaging apps or unsolicited contact.

Important Clarification

  • We never solicit employment, contractor work, or tasks via external websites, messaging apps, or social media platforms.
  • If you're uncertain about a website or communication, please confirm directly through our official contact page: FirstPier.com/Contact.
