Ian Mykael Ray, who now goes by “Mike” Ray, is a professional liar living amongst us in Charlotte, North Carolina. The man you may know as “Mike” would have you believe that he is a friendly, harmless guy who is trying to make a difference in our world. However, it’s the things he doesn’t reveal and, in fact, goes out of his way to cover up with lies that will leave you floored with disbelief.

Before 2018, Mike, then known as Ian, made a name for himself as a real estate investor in the Charlotte and surrounding markets. He also spent his days running his consulting firm IR Consulting (Note: IR being his initials for Ian Ray). Now, if you look for IR Consulting, you’ll find that it is ran by Mike Ray.

As a man in his thirties, it’s not that common to start going by a different name out of nowhere. No, Ian started going by Mike only after his arrests in Greenville, SC in 2018.

What was Ian/Mike arrested for? If you use a search engine to look up “Operation Millstone,” you’ll find a horrifying story that tells you just what Ian/Mike was doing before his arrest in 2018. The mugshot pictured below gives a glimpse into his 2018 arrest.

Public records show that Ian was arrested on three charges involving a minor between the age of 11 and 14. They also show that he is out on the streets to this day on $70,000 worth of bonded bail and with a pending status on his case. It has now been over three years since Ian/Mike was arrested, and he has been free to live his life ever since.

So, how has Ian/Mike spent his free time? On the surface, you might think that Ian/Mike has decided to repent for his sins and turn over a new leaf. Knowing Ian/Mike, however, only reveals a disturbing deeper truth.

On May 14, 2021, qcnerve.com published an article boasting Mike’s new involvement with a coffee company titled Coffee Cartel Co. This company was formed in November 2020 and is registered by a Registered Agent company in order to keep the true owner(s) anonymous. The QC Nerve article confirms that the owner(s) of Coffee Cartel Co. wish to remain anonymous. The article appoints “Mike” Ray as the “spokesperson” for the company, with quotes stating things like “Things go easier when you don’t force someone to change their behavior.”

Here’s the creepy thing about Ian/Mike: he has developed such a knack for lying and manipulation that it’s the small details you have to pay attention to...

- Shortly before Ian/Mike’s arrest, he was hiding out at Lake Lure...you read that right...while he was luring children on the internet, he was camping out at Lake LURE.

- After being handcuffed and charged with minor solicitation among other charges and then being released on bonded bail, Ian/Mike set out to form a coffee company claiming to help raise funds for human trafficking nonprofits in the area (his arrest was part of a larger human trafficking sting). He proceeded to create the logo for this coffee company incorporating handcuffs as a visual.

- Ian/Mike makes claims of being married with kids. But a personal account from his ex-wife tells a heart wrenching story that differs from his own:

So when a person such as this says something like “Things go easier when you don’t force someone to change their behavior,” you have to believe him. Believe him when he says his behavior hasn’t and won’t change...

As a citizen of Charlotte, NC, it disturbs me that people like Ian/Mike are roaming the streets cloaked in everyday clothing with the freedom to paint a picture that tells any story he wants, rather than admitting what he has done and seeking help. It begs me to wonder - how many more seemingly normal people are there amongst us each day who are actually hurting children and women and committing heinous acts behind closed doors? With each new detail that unfolds about Ian/Mike, the more disturbing reality becomes about him. Beware of this man, and be careful about who you trust to do business with, become friends with, and let into your daily life. Because I will tell you this: he walks around with confidence, if not arrogance. He will walk up to any stranger with a friendly face and shake their hand, looking for new partners to do business with and friends to take advantage of. He has no shame in covering up what he has done and continues to do, no matter how disturbing or shady his actions are. I’m sure he wasn’t expecting something like this to be shared with the public, but here I am, trying to uncover his lies and reveal his truths to those he has and plans to deceive.
