DEMAND FOR COMPENSATION OF DAMAGES 

AND CEASE OF HARASSMENT

Attention Ramon Ontiveros and Floor Ko LLC

This letter serves as a formal demand for compensation of damages and cease and desist regarding your ongoing harassment and interference with my livelihood since my separation from employment at Floor Ko LLC in August 2024.

You have created and used fake profiles, some of which are the same accounts that requested quotes while I was employed at Floor Ko LLC during September 2021 through August 2024. You continued using these profiles after my termination, including while I had moved and was performing professional services in Albuquerque, NM early 2025, fraudulently requesting quotes and lying about your location through these fake accounts and have not stopped to this day.

In an attempt to conceal your actions, you changed the names of these accounts; however, these accounts contain a digital fingerprint that is unique and cannot be removed, clearly linking the activity back to you. Your harassment has been specifically targeted at my provision of carpet and flooring installation services since January 2025 to this day. These actions were intended to waste my time, sabotage my independent business, and prevent me from obtaining legitimate clients.

In addition, you have targeted other services and products I offer, such as container sales and yard cleaning services. You have extracted personal information about me and my family, including phone numbers, names, and addresses, information meant to be shared with close relatives and friends.

You have harassed me through fake Facebook and Instagram accounts, sending pictures with metadata linking the activity back to you and your home address [REDACTED FOR PRIVACY] El Paso, TX 79905 and threatening to pursue court action in a way that constitutes a waste of public resources and an abuse of the legal system on August 7, 2025.

I have also received death threats through a series of graphic images referencing the layout of my previous apartment at 610 Prospect St, El Paso, TX 79902. These images included depictions such as a first-person video game character holding firearms and a skeleton lying in a bathtub filled with blood. While each image on its own may not constitute a standalone offense, when considered as part of the broader harassment campaign, including tampering with witnesses, retaliation, and interference with my professional activities, they collectively constitute violations under Texas Penal Code § 22.01 (Assault), § 42.07 (Harassment), and § 33.02 (Computer Crimes). These threats were delivered via social media and dating apps (Grindr), which I use to promote legitimate services and secure clients, further obstructing my ability to conduct lawful business.

As a result of your actions:

• I have had no work for the past two months.

• I have incurred significant loss of time and gasoline expenses traveling to appointments that were fabricated.

• I have suffered financial hardship and emotional distress.

• I have lost legitimate business opportunities due to your interference.

• I have wasted funds on advertising and marketing efforts for leads that were fraudulent.

• I have experienced repeated harassment through social media, dating apps, and other online platforms, causing ongoing stress and anxiety.

• I have been forced to alter my professional operations, including declining potential clients or rescheduling real appointments, due to fear of encountering fake leads.

• I have had to spend additional time documenting and reporting your actions to law enforcement and regulatory agencies.

• I have been unable to fully focus on growing my business due to the continual threat of harassment.

• I have suffered reputational harm, as your actions could make potential clients doubt my professionalism or availability.

I have documented your actions and filed multiple reports since August 2024 with law enforcement and regulatory agencies, including:

• Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for financial and business-related matters

• Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for harassment and interference with professional activities

• U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for unauthorized use of personal information, threats and defamation related to my immigration status and related issues

• El Paso Police Department for harassment, retaliation, wage theft including wait penalty fees and severance, and related matters

• U.S. Department of Labor for wage theft and employment-related issues

• Texas Workforce Commission for employment retaliation and wage theft including wait penalty fees and severance and other related to hush money disguised as severance

• U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for harassment and retaliation claims including hush money disguised as severance

• Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts for financial and business record matters and others

I have also submitted complaints and legal requests to subpoena other related records through different law enforcement agencies. Once these results are received and confirmed, I intend to proceed with civil litigation while also awaiting potential criminal investigation outcomes.

I have records demonstrating that for over three years I have continuously offered carpet and flooring installation services, secured clients, scheduled and successfully completed projects while working for Floor Ko, LLC from September 2021 to August 2024, [REDACTED FOR PRIVACY] in Albuquerque, NM from January 2025 to May 2025, and as an independent carpet and flooring installer since 2022. These records establish a clear pattern of continuity in my professional activities and demonstrate that your interference, harassment, and related actions have directly damaged my ability to exercise my right to pursue my lawful profession and earn a living.

Apart from this, I also have medical and psychological documentation from licensed providers dated September 3 and September 2, 2025 respectively, confirming the harassment and interference I have suffered, resulting in ongoing anxiety, stress, and emotional distress, which I intend to submit as evidence in court if this matter proceeds.

Last but not least, I have also received the night of September 5, 2025, through the same fake account that you previously used to threatened the use the court system to intimidate me, several messages acknowledging awareness of my distress, including statements such as (translated from Spanish):

“I understand you're hurt and you're defending yourself. I’m telling you to your face, forgive me Samuel… I don’t want to fight. I want this to stop so everyone can live in peace.”

Despite these statements, the consequences of the harassment and interference I have suffered persisted, and I have still not been able to recover the financial losses, lost opportunities, and emotional harm caused by these actions. These messages, combined with the continued use of fake profiles, demonstrate your deliberate and knowing interference with my professional activities and emotional wellbeing.

Accordingly, I am legally entitled to compensation for the damages incurred, including lost income, wasted expenses, and emotional distress, and I reserve the right to pursue full legal remedies in civil and crimina/l forums if these damages are not addressed.

Based on my calculations, the damages I have suffered including wasted advertising funds, gas expenses, lost work opportunities, and emotional distress since May 2025 amount to $10,265.50. I attached a summary table of calculated damages with category, amount, and total for clarity.

Ramon, your creation and use of fake online accounts, combined with threats and interference with my professional activities, constitutes actionable conduct under Texas Penal Code § 33.02 (Computer Crimes) and § 42.07 (Harassment), among other applicable laws.

Based on the foregoing, I, Samuel Eduardo Martínez Roque, hereby demand that you, Ramon Ontiveros, also known as "Ramon Ontiveros Medina," and "Ramon Medina," and Floor Ko LLC, also known as "Angel's Carpet LLC," remit the total sum of $10,265.50 USD within seven (7) calendar days of receipt of this letter. This demand is made as a prerequisite to filing a small claims action to recover damages related to your harassment and interference with my professional activities.

If you fail to comply, I will then proceed first with a small claims court action against you without further notice. This letter and all supporting documentation will be submitted to the court as evidence that you were given the opportunity to resolve this matter amicably and chose not to.

Sincerely,
[SIGNED ON 9/6/2025]
Samuel Eduardo Martínez Roque

Reservation of Rights

The undersigned expressly reserves the right to disclose any document or evidence related to this legal claim, including communications, reports, or records, in a manner permitted by law, as necessary to protect personal safety or support claims arising from harassment, human trafficking, or labor exploitation by Ramon Ontiveros. Such disclosure shall be made consistent with federal and state protections for trafficking survivors, including 18 U.S.C. § 1595(d), 18 U.S.C. § 3771, Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Art. 57D, and Texas Address Confidentiality Program statutes, which recognize the right of survivors to control disclosure of identifying information to prevent retaliation, intimidation, or further harm. 

Truth is an absolute defense to defamation. Statements based on verifiable facts cannot be considered defamatory, even if they are damaging or uncomfortable for the subject. This principle safeguards the public interest by ensuring that truthful accounts of misconduct or abuse remain protected speech.

• “The common law of libel took the view that the defendant had the burden of proving the truth of his statements. We now hold that the common-law presumption is invalid.” U.S. Supreme Court — Philadelphia Newspapers v. Hepps, 475 U.S. 767 (1986)

• “Truth may not be the subject of either civil or criminal sanctions where discussion of public affairs is involved.” U.S. Supreme Court — Garrison v. Louisiana, 379 U.S. 64 (1964)

• “One who publishes a defamatory statement of fact is not subject to liability for defamation if the statement is true.” Restatement (Second) of Torts § 581A (1977)

I state under penalty of perjury that everything I have described is true and supported by verifiable facts, evidence, and lived experience, and no amount of intimidation, threats, or retaliation will change the truth regarding what Human Trafficker Ramon Ontiveros has done to me.
