MEMORANDUM OPINION
WILLIAM D. QUARLES, JR., District Judge.Patricia Mitchell Tracey and Larry Austin (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”), on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated, sued First American Title Ins. Co. (“First American”)1 for violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (“RICO”), 18 U.S.C. § 1962, and other claims. For the following reasons, First American’s motion to dismiss will be denied.
I. Background2
A. Factual Background
This case arises out of title insurers United General and First American’s *833alleged scheme to systematically “cheat” Maryland homeowners by charging premiums for title insurance in excess of the rates permitted by Maryland law. Compl. ¶ l.3 Specifically, instead of charging and collecting a 40% discounted premium— filed with and approved by the Maryland Insurance Administration (the “MIA”)4— for purchasers of title insurance who refinanced their mortgages within 10 years of a previously issued title insurance policy (the “reissue rate”), First American collected the higher basic rate. Id. ¶¶ 3, 23-24. First American split the excess premiums with the local title company (the “insurance producers,” or “agents”) that had procured the policies on its behalf. Id ¶¶ 2-3,17-18,25.
1. Mitchell Tracey
In September 2004, Mitchell Tracey purchased her home for $152,170.00. Compl. ¶ 27. In connection with her loan closing, she purchased an owner’s title insurance policy. Id. ¶ 28. On March 1, 2005, Mitchell Tracey refinanced her home. Id. ¶ 29. The closing and settlement services were provided by Custom Title & Escrow (“Custom Title”), an agent of United General. Id. ¶ 29. The loan amount for the March 2005 refinance was $101,500.00. Id. ¶ 30. In connection with the March 1, 2005 refinance, and acting on behalf of United General, Custom Title issued a lender’s title insurance policy with a face value of $101,500.00. Id. ¶ 31. United General charged and collected a premium of $319.26 for the policy. Id. ¶ 32. According to the Plaintiffs, Mitchell Tracey was eligible for the discounted reissue rate of $153.00 5-a fact that would have been revealed through a title search of Mitchell Tracey’s property. Id. ¶¶ 33, 35. Instead, United General “pocketed” the difference of $166.26, and “refused to credit any portion of it” to Mitchell Tracey’s account. Id. ¶ 34.
2. Austin
In October 1999, Austin purchased his home for $70,000.00 Compl. ¶ 39. On June 19, 2007, Austin obtained a $140,000.00 loan on the property in connection with its refinancing. Id. ¶ 40. First American is*834sued Austin a lender’s title insurance policy with a face value of $140,000.00. Id. On June 16, 2008, Austin refinanced his home again. Id. ¶ 41. The closing and settlement services were provided by Endeavor Title, LLC (“Endeavor”), an agent of First American. Id. The loan amount for the June 2008 refinance was $155,396.00. Id. ¶ 42. In connection with the June 2008 refinance, and acting on behalf of First American, Endeavor issued a lender’s title insurance policy with a face value of $155,396.00. Id. ¶ 43. First American charged and collected a premium of $390.00 for the policy. Id. ¶ 44. According to the Plaintiffs, Austin was entitled to the discounted reissue rate of $250.006 — a fact that would have been revealed through a title search of his property. Id. ¶¶ 45, 47. Instead, First American retained the difference of $140.00, and refused to credit Austin’s account. Id. ¶ 46.
B. Procedural History
1. Mitchell Tracey I
On April 14, 2005, Mitchell Tracey filed a class action complaint in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County alleging violations of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”), 12 U.S.C. § 2607, money had and received, negligent misrepresentation, and civil conspiracy. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 2. The Defendants removed the action to this Court. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 1. On July 19, 2005, Mitchell Tracey amended her complaint to add Milton Brown, Francine Byrd-Brown, and Helen Klatsky as named plaintiffs. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 41. On September 25, 2006, then-U.S. District Judge Andre M. Davis granted summary judgment for the defendants on the RESPA claim. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 91. The next day, Judge Davis granted class certification for:
All persons or entities in Maryland who within 10 years of having previously purchased title insurance in connection with their mortgage or fee interest, refinanced the identical mortgage or fee interest, and were charged a title insurance premium by [one of the Defendants] that exceeded the applicable premium discount or “reissue rate” for title insurance on file with the Maryland Insurance Administration that such persons are entities should have been charged.
No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 93.
On October 28, 2009, the Plaintiffs moved to file a second amended complaint to add claims for negligence, breach of contract, and violation of RICO. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 138. On February 26, 2010, the Court denied the motion as futile, holding that because the proposed claims were dependent on the Maryland Insurance Code, and the Plaintiffs had not exhausted administrative remedies, Arthur v. Ticor Title Insurance Company, 569 F.3d 154 (4th Cir.2009), decided July 18, 2009, would require their dismissal.7 No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF Nos. 141, 142.
*835On March 5, 2010, the Plaintiffs moved for reconsideration of the February 26, 2010 order. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 143. That day, the Defendants moved for judgment on the pleadings and to decertify the class. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 144. On May 5, 2010, the Court denied the plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration and granted the defendants’ motion for judgment and to decertify the class. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 152. The Court held that the Plaintiffs had failed to state a claim because they had not exhausted administrative remedies, and “allow[ed] the MIA to determine whether the Insurance Code has been violated and the remedy, if any, to which the Plaintiffs are entitled.” ECF No. 151 at 11. Because the Plaintiffs were not properly before the Court, the Court decertified the class. Id. at 12.
On May 11, 2010, acting on Mitchell Tracey and Austin’s administrative complaint, the MIA determined that United General and First American violated § 27-614(b) of the Insurance Code by not providing Mitchell Tracey and Austin a reissue rate for settlements conducted on their behalf. ECF No. 3-3 at 2-3. The MIA concluded that Mitchell Tracey had been overcharged by $166.26 for the title insurance premium, and found she was entitled to a refund in that amount, plus six percent per annum interest from February 22, 2005. Id. at 5. The MIA similarly concluded that Austin was entitled to a refund for a $199.00 overcharge, plus interest from June 16, 2008. Id. at 8. The MIA did not make findings as to absent class members on whose behalf Mitchell Tracey and Austin sought relief, concluding that it did not have “sufficient information ... to review the allegations with regard to unnamed and unspecified individuals.” Id. at 3; Compl. ¶ 37, 49.
On May 19, 2010, citing the MIA’s decision, the plaintiffs, in Mitchell Tracey I moved for reconsideration of the Court’s order granting judgment for the defendants and decertifying the class. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 155. On November 17, 2010, the Court denied the motion for reconsideration, concluding that the MIA decision was not new evidence because it arose after judgment. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 168; ECF No. 167 at 6. The plaintiffs appealed. No. WDQ-05-*8361428, ECF No. 169. On August 2, 2011, the Fourth Circuit affirmed, concluding that, on the facts alleged, “Arthur mandates dismissal to allow the MI[A] to assess, in the first instance, ‘whether the Insurance Code has been violated and the remedy, if any, to which the Plaintiffs are entitled.’ ” No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF-No. 173 at 8 (quoting ECF No. 151 at 11). On August 29, 2011, United General and First American issued Mitchell Tracey and Austin refund checks covering the amount of their alleged overcharges and interest. See ECF No. 3-7. According to First American, Mitchell Tracey and Austin have “refused” to cash them. ECF No. 3-2 at 15.
2. Mitchell Tracey II (This Case)
On April 30, 2012, the Plaintiffs filed the present action against United General and First American for RICO violations and other claims. ECF No. I.8 On May 25, 2012, United General and First American moved to dismiss. ECF No. 3. On May 25, 2012, First American sought leave to defend the action as the sole remaining defendant. ECF No. 5. This Court granted the motion. ECF No. 27. On June 25, 2012, the Plaintiffs opposed the motion to dismiss. ECF No. 20. A reply followed. ECF No. 22.
II. Analysis
A. Legal Standards
Under Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(1), the Court must dismiss an action if it discovers it lacks subject matter jurisdiction. The plaintiff has the burden of proving the Court has jurisdiction, and the Court must make all reasonable inferences in the plaintiffs favor. Khoury v. Meserve, 268 F.Supp.2d 600, 606 (D.Md.2003), aff'd, 85 Fed.Appx. 960 (4th Cir.2004). The Court may “look beyond the pleadings” to decide whether it has subject matter jurisdiction, but it must presume that the factual allegations in the complaint are true. Id.
Under Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6), an action may be dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Rule 12(b)(6) tests the legal sufficiency of a complaint, but does not “resolve contests surrounding the facts, the merits of a claim, or the applicability of defenses.” Presley v. City of Charlottesville, 464 F.3d 480, 483 (4th Cir.2006).
The Court bears in mind that Rule 8(a)(2) requires only a “short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to relief.” Migdal v. Rowe Price-Fleming Int’l Inc., 248 F.3d 321, 325-26 (4th Cir.2001). Although Rule 8’s notice-pleading requirements are “not onerous,” the plaintiff must allege facts that support each element of the claim advanced. Bass v. E.I. Dupont de Nemours & Co., 324 F.3d 761, 764-65 (4th Cir.2003). These facts must be sufficient to “state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.” Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007).
This requires that the plaintiff do more than “plead[ ] facts that are ‘merely consistent with a defendant’s liability’ the facts pled must “allow[ ] the court to draw the reasonable inference that the *837defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) 0quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 557, 127 S.Ct. 1955). The complaint must not only allege but also “show” that the plaintiff is entitled to relief. Id. at 679, 129 S.Ct. 1937 (internal quotation marks omitted). “Whe[n] the well-pleaded facts do not permit the court to infer more than the mere possibility of misconduct, the complaint has alleged — but it has not shown — that the pleader is entitled to relief.” Id. (internal quotation marks and alteration omitted). An affirmative defense, such as the statute of limitations, may be raised in a motion to dismiss if clear from the face of the complaint. See Brooks v. City of Winston-Salem, 85 F.3d 178, 181 (4th Cir.1996).
B. The Motion to Dismiss9
First American argues that the complaint should be dismissed because (1) the Plaintiffs’ claims are moot, depriving the Court of subject-matter jurisdiction; (2) Mitchell Tracey’s claims are time-barred; and (3) the Plaintiffs have failed to state a claim under Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) and, as to their RICO allegations, under Fed.R.Civ.P. 9(b). ECF No. 3. The Plaintiffs counter that the restitution they received from First American through the MIA proceeding was insufficient to moot their claims; equitable tolling renders Mitchell Tracey’s claims timely; and each cause of action was adequately pled. See generally ECF No. 20.
1. Mootness
First American argues that the Plaintiffs’ claims are moot, requiring dismissal for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction, because they were already refunded the overcharges. See ECF No. 3-2 at 17-23. The Plaintiffs counter that anything short of an offer of judgment is insufficient to moot a claim; the amount tendered is less than the amount to which they would be entitled under their claims; and the tender includes nothing for the claims of the class. ECF No. 20 at 11.
“ ‘[T]he doctrine of mootness constitutes a part of the constitutional limits of federal court jurisdiction.’ ” Simmons v. United Mortg. & Loan Inv., LLC, 634 F.3d 754, 763 (4th Cir.2011) (quoting United States v. Hardy, 545 F.3d 280, 283 (4th Cir.2008)). A case is moot “ ‘when the issues presented are no longer ‘live’ or the parties lack a legally cognizable interest in the outcome.’” Id. A case can become moot due to a change in factual circumstances or in the law. Id. “Generally speaking, one such [factual] circumstance mooting a claim arises when the claimant receives the relief he or she sought to obtain through the claim.” Id. (quoting Friedman’s, Inc. v. Dunlap, 290 F.3d 191, 197 (4th Cir.2002)).
In support of its mootness argument, First American relies on the Fourth Circuit’s ruling in Woods v. Stewart Title Guaranty Co., No. 10-2104 (4th Cir. Nov. 2, 2011). In Woods, the district court dismissed the case and decertified the class because Woods had not exhausted her administrative remedies with the MIA. Woods v. Stewart Title Guar. Co., No. CCB-06-0705, 2010 WL 786294, at *2-3 (D.Md. Mar. 3, 2010). Woods then filed a *838complaint with the MIA, and the MIA determined that she had been overcharged. Woods v. Stewart Title Guar. Co., 2010 WL 3395655, at *2 (D.Md. Aug. 26, 2010). Stewart tendered a check for the overcharge plus interest, but Woods refused to accept it. The court denied Woods’s Rule 60(b) motion for reconsideration, because the MIA’s decision was not “newly discovered evidence” and Woods had not shown “extraordinary circumstances” justifying relief. Id. On November 2, 2011, the Fourth Circuit dismissed Woods’s appeal of the dismissal and denial of reconsideration10 as “moot.” Woods, No. 10-2104, ECF No. 51 at 1 (4th Cir. Nov. 2, 2011).
First American argues that the Fourth Circuit in Woods dismissed Woods’s appeal because her claim had been fully satisfied, rendering the Plaintiffs’ claims moot for the same reason. See ECF No. 3-2 at 20. The Plaintiffs argue that the Fourth Circuit dismissed Woods’s appeal as moot, not the claim itself, and is thus inapplicable. ECF No. 20 at 20. The Plaintiffs are correct. Woods appealed dismissal on the grounds that she was not required to administratively exhaust. While her appeal was pending, she exhausted administrative remedies by filing a complaint with the MIA-mooting her appeal. As another district court has recognized, Woods accordingly “has no bearing on the question of mootness” here. Carter v. Stewart Title & Guar. Co., No. CCB-12-0167, 2013 WL 436517, at *3 (D.Md. Feb. 4, 2013); Winston v. Stewart Title & Guar. Co., 920 F.Supp.2d 631, 635, No. CCB-10-2425, 2013 WL 436455, at *3 (D.Md. Feb. 4, 2013).
This Court finds Simmons — -not Woods — is instructive. In Simmons, the Fourth Circuit held that an offer of relief that does not include an offer of judgment is inadequate to moot a claim. 634 F.3d at 766. Here, pursuant to the MIA’s decision on the Plaintiffs’ administrative complaint, First American tendered to the Plaintiffs their title insurance overcharges, plus interest. ECF No. 3-2 at 20; see also ECF No. 3-7. First American did not offer, and has not since offered, judgment. Without this offer, the Court “would have no basis to compel [First American] to pay [the Plaintiffs] should the check[s] turn out to be defective in some way.” Carter, 2013 WL 436517, at *4. The defectiveness concern is present here, as the Plaintiffs specifically allege that their checks are now stale. See ECF No. 20 at 13. Moreover, contrary to First American’s assertion that the Plaintiffs have “indisputably” received full compensation, ECF No. 3-2 at 20, the Plaintiffs’ claims additionally seek treble damages (as to the RICO counts), attorney’s fees, and costs. Compl. at 21, 22, 24, 28, 29, 31.11 Because the Plaintiffs may be entitled to relief beyond the amount of the overcharge plus interest, First American *839has not provided the “full relief’ necessary to justify dismissal on mootness grounds. Cf. Carter, 2013 WL 436517, at *4-5.12
First American’s 12(b)(1) motion to dismiss on mootness grounds will be denied.
2. Statutes of Limitations
First American next argues that Mitchell Tracey’s claims are time-barred. ECF No. 3-2 at 23. The Plaintiffs contend the class action tolling doctrine applies, rendering Mitchell Tracey’s claims timely. ECF No. 20 at 22-23.
In Maryland, a civil action must be filed within three years from the date it accrues. Md. Code Ann., Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-101. A four-year statute of limitations applies to civil RICO claims. Agency Holding Corp. v. Malley-Duff & Assocs., Inc., 483 U.S. 143, 156, 107 S.Ct. 2759, 97 L.Ed.2d 121 (1987).13 The present case was filed on April 30, 2012 — about eight years after First American allegedly overcharged Mitchell Tracey for title insurance. See Compl. ¶¶ 29-35. Thus, on the face of the complaint, Mitchell Tracey’s claims are time-barred unless the statutes of limitations have been tolled.
Federal tolling law governs the viability of Mitchell Tracey’s civil RICO claims. Maryland law governs the rest.14 Both parties rely on the federal class action tolling doctrine, as set forth in American Pipe & Construction Co. v. Utah, 414 U.S. 538, 94 S.Ct. 756, 38 L.Ed.2d 713 (1974), to support their respective timeliness arguments. The Plaintiffs argue that the statutes of limitations were tolled while Mitchell Tracey I was pending. ECF No. 20 at 22. First American argues that Mitchell Tracey I did not toll the limitations periods, because the case was dismissed without prejudice. ECF No. 3-2 at 23-24. As discussed above, American Pipe is a federal tolling doctrine and thus does not automatically apply to the Plaintiffs’ Maryland claims. However, the Maryland Court of Appeals has adopted American Pipe and its progeny,15 and the Court will therefore *840discuss the doctrine’s applicability to all pending’ claims.
Under American Pipe, “the commencement of a class action suspends the applicable statute of limitations as to all asserted members of the class who would have been parties had the suit been permitted to continue as a class action.” 414 U.S. at 554, 94 S.Ct. 756. “Once the statute of limitations has been tolled, it remains tolled for all members of the putative class until class certification is denied,” at which point “class members may choose to file their own suits or to intervene as plaintiffs in the pending action.” Crown, Cork & Seal Co. v. Parker, 462 U.S. 345, 354, 103 S.Ct. 2392, 76 L.Ed.2d 628 (1983) (emphasis added). The Crown, Cork & Seal Court thereby “untethered this tolling rule from any necessary connection to the reasons for denying certification.” Smith v. Pennington, 352 F.3d 884, 892 (4th Cir.2003). “The rule should not be read, however, as leaving a plaintiff free to raise different or peripheral claims following denial of class status.” Crown, Cork & Seal, 462 U.S. at 354, 103 S.Ct. 2392 (Powell, J., concurring).
Here, the statutes of limitations began to run, at the earliest, when Mitchell Tracey refinanced her home on March 1, 2005. Compl. ¶ 29-32. The periods were tolled when Mitchell Tracey I was filed (on April 14, 2005), and remained tolled until, at the earliest, May 5, 2010: when the Court granted the defendants’ motion to decertify. No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 152. Mitchell Tracey filed the instant suit on April 12, 2012. Compl.16 At that point, 754 days — slightly more than two years— had run on the statutes of limitations.17 Thus, the action was timely.18
*841First American is not entitled to dismissal on timeliness grounds.19
3. Failure to State a Claim
First American argues that the Plaintiffs have failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. ECF No. 3-2 at 26. The Plaintiffs counter that all claims were adequately alleged. ECF No. 20 at 24, 55, 57.
a. RICO Claims
RICO “does not cover all instances of wrongdoing. Rather, it is a unique cause of action that is concerned with eradicating organized, long-term, habitual criminal activity.” US Airline Pilots Ass’n v. Awappa, LLC, 615 F.3d 312 (4th Cir.2010) (internal quotation marks omitted). Thus, although courts read the terms of the statute “liberally” to “effectuate its remedial purposes,” they must also “exercise caution” to ensure that “RICO’s extraordinary remedy does not threaten the ordinary run of commercial transactions; that treble damage suits are not brought against isolated offenders for their harassment and settlement value; and that the multiple state and federal laws bearing on transactions ... are not eclipsed or preempted.” Id. (internal quotation marks omitted). To state a civil RICO claim, a plaintiff must allege that the defendants engaged in, or conspired to engage in, a pattern of “racketeering activity.” 18 U.S.C. § 1962(a), (c) (emphasis added). “Racketeering activity” includes mail fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1341, wire fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1343, and transporting money converted or fraudulently obtained interstate under 18 U.S.C. § 2314. See 18 U.S.C. § 1961(1) (defining racketeering activity).
Counts Four through Six allege violations of RICO subsections (a),20 (c),21 and (d)22. 18 U.S.C. § 1962(a), (c), and (d). First American argues that the Plaintiffs have failed to plead allegations in *842support of the elements of “an enterprise” and “racketeering activity,” which are “necessary elements common to all three subsection claims.” Proctor v. Metropolitan Money Store Corp. 645 F.Supp.2d 464 (D.Md.2009); ECF No. 3-2 at 27-29. First American also argues that the Plaintiffs’ conspiracy claim is barred by the “intracorporate conspiracy” doctrine. ECF No. 3-2 at 29-31. Because several of First American’s arguments are common to all RICO counts, the Court will address them in turn.
i. § 1962(c)’s “Distinctiveness” Requirement and the Association-in-Fact Enterprise
RICO defines an “enterprise” as “any individual, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity, and any union or group of individuals associated in fact although not a legal entity.” 18 U.S.C. § 1961(4). An “enterprise” requires proof of three elements: (1) an ongoing organization; (2) associates functioning as a continuing unit; and (3) the enterprise is an entity “separate and apart from the pattern of activity in which it engages.” Proctor v. Metro. Money Store Corp., 645 F.Supp.2d 464, 477-78 (D.Md.2009). “[A]n associated-in-fact enterprise is one type of enterprise defined in § 1961(4).” United States v. Tillett, 763 F.2d 628, 631 n. 2 (4th Cir.1985). To satisfy § 1962(c)’s “distinctiveness” requirement, the Plaintiffs must further allege that the RICO “enterprise” is distinct from the defendant “person” alleged to have violated RICO. Levine v. First Am. Title Ins. Co., 682 F.Supp.2d 442, 457 (E.D.Pa.2010); Toucheque v. Price Bros. Co., 5 F.Supp.2d 341, 346-47 (D.Md.1998).23
First American first challenges the Plaintiffs’ allegations of distinctiveness, arguing that “despite RICO’s settled ‘separateness’ ... requirement, Plaintiffs plead a RICO enterprise consisting solely of Defendants and their agents.” ECF No. 3-2 at 28. Specifically, “[b]y averring that Defendants acted through their title agents, Plaintiffs simply identify a ‘person’ and ‘enterprise’ that are one and the same.” Id. at 29 (emphasis added). “[T]o establish liability under 1962(c) one must allege and prove the existence of two distinct entities: (1) a ‘person’; and (2) an ‘enterprise’ that is not simply the same ‘person’ referred to by a different name.” Cedric Kushner Promotions, Ltd. v. King, 533 U.S. 158, 161, 121 S.Ct. 2087, 150 L.Ed.2d 198 (2001).24 The complaint alleges that First American is the liable person and the “enterprise” is an association-in-fact between First American and its title agents in Maryland. Compl. ¶¶ 64-65. The complaint describes the enterprise:
[First American and United General] are the principals in their respective enterprises and have the responsibility for providing title insurance policies. [They] have agent selection processes to select agents to issue United General and First American policies. The title agents act as United General’s and First American’s agents in selling title insurance policies and often act as clos*843ing agents for the lenders in the same mortgage transactions. The title agents, acting on [First American and United General’s] behalf and subject to [the companies’] control, are responsible for conducting the title searches and calculating the title insurance premiums.
The title agents are not First American employees; instead, they are. “non-exclusive agents who work with different title insurance companies.” Compl. ¶ 65. Because First American and the title agents are an “enterprise” separate and distinct from the Defendant First American, the Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged a “person” distinct from the “enterprise.”25
First American also challenges the sufficiency of the Plaintiffs’ allegations as to an “association-in-fact.” As stated above, to plead a — RICO enterprise, the Plaintiffs must show: (1) an ongoing organization, (2) the various associates of which function as a continuing unit, and (3) the organization has an existence separate and apart from the alleged pattern of racketeering activity. United States v. Turkette, 452 U.S. 576, 583, 101 S.Ct. 2524, 69 L.Ed.2d 246 (1981). According to First American, the Plaintiffs’ RICO claims lack the first two elements because they “fail[ ] to identify any common purpose or ongoing relationship among the various title agents,” and lack the third element because they “fail[ ] to identify a RICO enterprise that is separate from the alleged racketeering conduct. ECF No. 3-2 at 31, 33. On the third element, First American argues that the Plaintiffs “describe nothing more than a business relationship between [First American] and [its] title agents.” Id.
To be organized, an association-in-fact enterprise “need not have a hierarchical structure or a chain of command; decisions may be made on an ad hoc basis and by any number of methods.” Boyle v. United States, 556 U.S. 938, 948, 129 S.Ct. 2237, 173 L.Ed.2d 1265 (2009).26 But, “[v]ague allegations of a RICO enterprise ... lacking any distinct existence and structure” will not survive dismissal. VanDenBroeck v. CommonPoint Mortg. Co., 210 F.3d 696, 700 (6th Cir.2000), abrogated on other grounds by Bridge v. Phoenix Bond & Indem. Co., 553 U.S. 639, 128 S.Ct. 2131, 170 L.Ed.2d 1012 (2008). Here, the Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged that there is a hierarchically structured organization, that is, First American’s contractual relationship with its title agents, in which First American is the principal whom the title agents assist by selling insurance policies, acting as closing agents, conducting title searches, and calculating the title insurance premiums. Compl. ¶¶ 66. Allegedly, First American used this association-in-fact to overcharge for title insurance and to mislead the Plaintiffs into believing that it had not. Id. ¶¶ 115-118. Indeed, the association’s common purpose was “to charge borrowers inflated and illegal fees, to defraud members of the public and to give effect *844to the scheme described,” by a distinct division of labor. Id. ¶ 116. Thus, the Plaintiffs have pled the first two Turkette elements (an ongoing organization, the various associates of which function as a continuing unit).
To plead Turkette’s third element (organization has an existence “separate and apart” from the alleged pattern of racketeering activity), a plaintiff must allege that the enterprise is “more than” an association of individuals conducting the corporation’s normal business functions. R.R. Brittingham v. Mobil Corp., 943 F.2d 297, 301 (3d Cir.1991). Contrary to First American’s belief, the Plaintiffs have alleged more than the performance of ordinary business functions here. Instead, the Plaintiffs allege that First American and its title agents deliberately overcharged and misappropriated amounts due for the purchase of title insurance, in violation of Maryland law. E.g., Compl. ¶¶ 15, 15, 32-34, 43-46. Such unlawful acts are not conducted in the ordinary course of business. Cf. Levine, 682 F.Supp.2d at 461 (“The fact that the organization between Defendant and its title agents engages in legitimate functions of performing title searches, selling and providing title insurance, and investigating and paying claims does not overcome the claim of illicit overcharging which is not part of the normal affairs of the business relationship.”). Thus, the Plaintiffs have also alleged a pattern of racketeering by First American and its agents that existed apart from a normal business relationship and is distinct from the enterprise.
ii. Racketeering Activity
The Plaintiffs have alleged three predicate acts of “racketeering activity”: mail fraud, wire fraud, and interstate transport of money converted or fraudulently obtained. E.g., Compl. ¶ 68. The elements of mail fraud are: “(1) a scheme to defraud, and (2) the mailing of a letter, etc., for the purpose of executing the scheme.” Pereira v. United States, 347 U.S. 1, 8, 74 S.Ct. 358, 98 L.Ed. 435 (1954); see also Biggs v. Eaglewood Mortg., LLC, 353 Fed.Appx. 864, 866 (4th Cir.2009) (“Mail fraud occurs when an individual, having devised a plot to defraud, uses the mail in order to further their plot.”). “The elements of wire fraud are similar; applying to the use of electronic or telephonic communication.” Foster v. Wintergreen Real Estate Co., 363 Fed.Appx. 269, 273 n. 5 (4th Cir.2010). To state a claim for interstate transport of money converted or fraudulently obtained, a plaintiff must, at a minimum, allege how or when these interstate transports occurred. See Kerby v. Mortg. Funding Corp., 992 F.Supp. 787, 798 n. 3 (D.Md.1998) (disregarding an alleged predicate act based on nothing more than a “bare allegation” of a violation).
When mail and wire fraud are asserted as predicate acts in a civil RICO claim, each must be pled with particularity. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 9(b). Specifically, the complaint must allege the “time, place, and contents of the false representations, as well as the identity of the person making the misrepresentation and what he obtained thereby.” Harrison v. Westinghouse Savannah River Co., 176 F.3d 776, 784 (4th Cir.1999). However, “[a] court should hesitate to dismiss a complaint under Rule 9(b) if the court is satisfied (1) that the defendant has been made aware of the particular circumstances for which he will have to prepare a defense at trial, and (2) that plaintiff has substantial prediscovery evidence of those facts.” Scott v. WFS Fin., Inc., No. 2:06cv349, 2007 WL 190237, at *5 (E.D.Va. Jan. 18, 2007) (internal quotation marks omitted).
First American argues that the Plaintiffs have failed to sufficiently plead *845mail and wire fraud, because they have not “identified] the circumstances surrounding any false representations, including the time, place, content, and speaker.” ECF No. 3-2 at 34. The Court does not agree. “A scheme to defraud means any deliberate plan of action or course of conduct by which someone intends to deceive or cheat another or by which someone intends to deprive another of something of value.” Levine, 682 F.Supp.2d at 462.27 Here, the Plaintiffs allege that First American’s title agents made the initial contact with the consumer, and each time, they “falsely and intentionally misrepresented to their customers that they would pay only the filed or best rate for title insurance.” Compl. ¶ 118. The Plaintiffs’ HUD-1 Settlement Statements, indicating the unlawfully high premium, were part of the scheme. Cf. Levine, 682 F.Supp.2d at 463.28 The Plaintiffs further allege that First American and its title agents acted with the intent to defraud: specifically, to overcharge borrowers for title insurance, “guaranteeing] a stream of business” for First American. Id. ¶¶ 62, 67. As reward for the title agents’ assistance, First American “reward[ed]” the agents with “illegal payments and kickbacks.” Id. ¶ 67. The Plaintiffs have shown a scheme to defraud.
The Plaintiffs have also shown use of the mails and electronic communications to further the above scheme. “To be part of the execution of the fraud ... the use of the mails need not be an essential element of the scheme.” Schmuck v. United States, 489 U.S. 705, 710, 109 S.Ct. 1443, 103 L.Ed.2d 734 (1989). Instead, they need only be “incident to the essential part of the scheme.” Pereira v. United States, 347 U.S. 1, 8, 74 S.Ct. 358, 98 L.Ed. 435 (1954). According to the complaint, First American “used the United States mails and telephone wires” to submit annual reports to the MIA; the MIA, in turn, relied on the documentation to permit First American to continue conducting business. Id. ¶ 69. The complaint also alleges specific dates when First American used the mail and electronic communication to further its scheme vis-a-vis Mitchell Tracey and Austin. See, e.g., id. ¶¶ 77-78. Distributions of the profits were sent interstate. Id. ¶ 76. More than two such predicate acts have occurred in the past 10 years, as required by § 1961(5).
The Plaintiffs have alleged, with particularity, that First American had a scheme to defraud and used the mail and electronic communication to further that scheme. The Plaintiffs have further alleged that First American transported money obtained through fraud interstate.
iii. Intracorporate Conspiracy Doctrine
Under the intracorporate conspiracy doctrine, “a conspiracy between a corporation and its agents, acting within the scope of employment, is a legal impossibility.” Marmott v. Md. Lumber Co., 807 F.2d 1180, 1184 (4th Cir.1986). The Fourth Circuit has identified two exceptions to the intracorporate conspiracy doctrine: “(1) when a corporate officer has an ‘independent personal stake’ in achieving the illegal objectives of the corporation, and (2) when the agent’s acts are unautho*846rized.” Walters v. McMahen, 795 F.Supp.2d 850, 358 (D.Md.2011) (internal citations and quotation marks omitted). First American argues that the intracorporate conspiracy doctrine renders the Plaintiffs’ § 1692(d) claim “legally infirm.” ECF No. 3-2 at 29-30.29 The Plaintiffs object that the doctrine does not apply to § 1962(d) claims and, even if it did, it does not bar the Plaintiffs’ claim because the independent title agents “were not acting solely as First American’s agents in the course of their actions in furtherance of the RICO enterprise.” ECF No. 20 at 51.
The Court will assume, for purposes of this analysis, that the intracorporate conspiracy doctrine applies to claims under § 1962(d). See Walters, 795 F.Supp.2d at 358 (noting that the Fourth Circuit “has yet to rule directly on this issue,” but applying the doctrine to a RICO claim). The Plaintiffs have sufficiently pled the “independent personal stake” exception to the doctrine. For that exception to apply, a conspirator must possess a personal interest independent and “wholly separable” from the interests of the corporation. Selman v. Am. Sports Underwriters, Inc., 697 F.Supp. 225, 239 (W.D.Va.1988). The exception is triggered when the alleged conspirator will “receive greater compensation from [his or her] alleged activities.” Walters, 795 F.Supp.2d at 359 n. 16. Here, the Plaintiffs have alleged that the agents profited from the unlawful overcharges, receiving up to 75% of the premium collected. Compl. ¶¶ 19, 66. The intracorporate conspiracy doctrine does not preclude relief.
Thus, the Plaintiffs have adequately alleged violations of RICO under § 1962(a), (c), and (d).
b. State Law Claims (Counts One, Two, Three)
i. Money had and received (Count One)
“An action for money had and received is one of what have been referred to as the ‘common counts’ or ‘common money counts’ that developed under English common law as a branch of the common law writ of assumpsit — indebitatus assumpsit.” Bourgeois v. Live Nation Entm’t, Inc., 430 Md. 14, 59 A.3d 509, 527 (2013). “An action for money had and received is a well-established remedy with a long history in [Maryland].” Id. “Maryland cases have found [the cause of action] available to recover money obtained by fraud or false pretenses, paid upon an unexecuted illegal contract, or, in certain circumstances, paid under an executed illegal contract.” Id. at 529. The Maryland Court of Appeals has qualified the doctrine stating that the action will lie to recover money paid in excess of that allowed by statute only if “the agreement pursuant to which it was paid has not been fully consummated, i.e., remains executory. Except with respect to a usurious contract, however, the action does not lie to recover money paid under a fully consummated contract as to which the parties may be regarded as being in pari delicto.” Id. at 530.
First American makes no arguments for dismissal of the money had and received claim. See generally ECF No. 3-2. Moreover, neither party has addressed the effect of Bourgeois — which issued in January 2013 — on the viability of the claim. Thus, to the extent that First American *847moves to dismiss the money had and received claim, the motion will be denied,
ii. Negligence (Count Two)
“For a plaintiff to state a prima facie claim in negligence, he or she must allege facts demonstrating (1) that the defendant was under a duty to protect the plaintiff from injury, (2) that the defendant breached that duty, (3) that the plaintiff suffered actual injury or loss, and (4) that the loss or injury proximately resulted from the defendant’s breach of the duty.” Remsburg v. Montgomery, 376 Md. 568, 831 A.2d 18, 26 (2003) (internal quotation marks omitted). “The mere negligent breach of a contract ... is not enough to sustain an action sounding in tort.” Jacques v. First Nat’l Bank of Md., 307 Md. 527, 515 A.2d 756, 759 (1986). However, Maryland has “approved a few narrow exceptions to this general rule.” Lawyers Title Ins. Corp. v. Rex Title Corp., 282 F.3d 292 (4th Cir.2002). First, a negligence claim may arise from a contractual relationship in circumstances involving a vulnerable party. See Jacques, 515 A.2d at 762. Second, a negligence claim may survive when the defendant owed a duty or obligation imposed by law independent of that arising out of the contract itself. See id. at 759.
First American argues that the Plaintiffs’ negligence claim “must be dismissed” because it “arises directly from an alleged contractual obligation that Defendants issue title polices to their lenders.” ECF No. 3-2 at 40. The Plaintiffs counter that the complaint alleges an “independent duty” under § 27-216 of the Insurance Code, which provides that a person “may not willfully collect a premium or charge for insurance” that exceeds the premium or charge applicable to that insurance under the applicable classifications and rates as filed with and approved by the Commissioner. ECF No. 20 at 58-59.
In determining whether a tort duty should be recognized in a particular context, two major considerations are: the nature of the harm likely to result from a failure to exercise due care, and the relationship that exists between the parties. Where the failure to exercise due care creates a risk of economic loss only, courts have generally required an intimate nexus between the parties as a condition to the imposition of tort liability. This intimate nexus is satisfied by contractual privity or its equivalent.
Jacques, 515 A.2d at 759-60. Here, First American’s alleged failure to exercise due care creates a risk of economic loss only. However, there is an “intimate nexus” between the parties: namely, contractual privity.
The motion to dismiss the Plaintiffs’ negligence claim will be denied.
iii. Breach of contract (Count Three)
“An implied contract is an agreement which legitimately can be inferred from intention of the parties as evidenced by the circumstances and the ordinary course of dealing and the common understanding of men.” Cnty. Comm’rs of Caroline Cnty. v. J. Roland Dashiell & Sons, Inc., 358 Md. 83, 747 A.2d 600 (2000). First American argues that the Plaintiffs have failed to state a claim for breach of contract because the complaint “does not explain how they reached a meeting of the minds with [First American] regarding any essential contract terms.” ECF No. 3-2 at 37. The Plaintiffs object that the “meeting of the minds” is demonstrated by the fact that they paid for title insurance and First American provided it. ECF No. 20 at 55 n. 15; see Compl. ¶ 98. An implied by fact contract can be inferred from the parties’ conduct. J. Roland Dashiell & Sons, 747 A.2d at 606 n. 6. Here, the Plaintiffs have *848adequately alleged a contract, which was breached when First American charged them more than was lawful. Compl. ¶ 100.
First American’s motion to dismiss the breach of contract claim will be denied.
III. Conclusion
For the reasons stated above, First American’s motion to dismiss will be denied.
. The Plaintiffs also sued United General Title Ins. Co. ("United General”), which is no longer a party. ECF Nos. 5, 27; see infra note 3.
. On a motion to dismiss, the well-pled allegations in the complaint are accepted as true. Brockington v. Boykins, 637 F.3d 503, 505 (4th Cir.2011). The Court will consider the pleadings, matters of public record, and documents attached to the motions that are integral to the complaint and whose authenticity is not disputed. See Philips v. Pitt Cnty. *833Mem’l Hosp., 572 F.3d 176, 180 (4th Cir. 2009).
. On February 18, 2005, United General was merged into First American when First American acquired United General’s parent company, United General Financial Services, Inc. Compl. ¶ 10; see also ECF No. 5 at 1. In connection with the merger, First American "assumed all of the rights and liabilities of United General.” ECF No. 5 at 1.
. Under the Maryland Insurance Code, a title insurer must (1) "file with the Commissioner all rates or premiums ... that it proposes to use”; and (2) “hold to the rates or premiums as approved by the Commissioner.” Md. Code Ann., Ins. §§ ll-403(a), ll-407(b); see also § 27 — 216(b)(1) ("A person may not willfully collect a premium or charge for insurance that: (i) exceeds ... [the] rates as filed with and approved by the Commissioner ...”).
. $153.00 represents $1.50 per thousand for $102,000.00, a 40% discount off the published rate in force for United General. Compl. ¶ 33. United General's rate filings provided that,
When the owner of property on which application is made for mortgage title insurance has had the title to the property insured as owner within ten (10) years prior to such application, such owner shall be entitled to the following reissue rates on such mortgage insurance up to the face amount of such owner’s policy, provided this company is provided with a copy of the owner’s policy issued by this Company or by another company licensed to do business in Maryland. The reissue rate shall be 60% of the Original Rate for First and Second Mortgage[.']
ECF No. 3-3 at 3 (emphasis added).
. $250.00 represents $1.50 per thousand for the first $140,000.00 and $2.50 per thousand for the next $16,000.00. Compl. ¶ 45.
. Arthur was a nearly identical case brought by the plaintiffs’ counsel, in which the plaintiffs also alleged that a title insurer had charged them higher rates than it had filed with the MIA. The Fourth Circuit affirmed the district court’s Rule 12(b)(6) dismissal of the Arthur plaintiffs’ claims for failure to exhaust administrative remedies under the Maryland Insurance Code. The court explained:
[u]nder Maryland law, when the statutory text creating an administrative remedy is not dispositive [about whether exhaustion is required], there is "a presumption that the administrative remedy is intended to be primary, and that a claimant cannot maintain the alternative judicial action without first *835invoking and exhausting the administrative remedy.”
Arthur v. Ticor Title Ins. Co., 569 F.3d 154, 161 (4th Cir.2009) (quoting Zappone v. Liberty Life Ins. Co., 349 Md. 45, 706 A.2d 1060, 1069 (1998)). "Moreover, whe[n] a judicial remedy is wholly or partially dependent upon the statutory scheme which also contains the administrative remedy, or upon the expertise of the administrative agency, Maryland courts have usually held that exhaustion is required.” Id. (internal quotation marks omitted).
The Fourth Circuit held that the plaintiffs' claim for money had and received was "dependent” on the Maryland Insurance Code because it would succeed "only if [the] plaintiffs [could] show that [the insurer] violated the Code” by charging higher rates than those on file with the MIA. Id. "If the Insurance Code did not require [the insurer] to adhere to its filed rates, plaintiffs would have no right to recover from [it] for charging an excessive fee.” Id. Further, the plaintiffs' claim implicated the Maryland Insurance Commissioner’s expertise; as the court explained, the Commissioner was in a better position than a federal court to determine, inter alia, whether the insurer had violated the Code and, if so, the proper remedy. Id. Thus, the plaintiffs' claim had been properly dismissed. Id.
Arthur also affirmed the dismissal of the negligent misrepresentation claim on the ground that the complaint did not allege a false statement. See Arthur, 569 F.3d at 162 n. 3. The Arthur plaintiffs did not appeal the dismissal of their civil conspiracy claim, which the district court dismissed because civil conspiracy is not a separate cause of action under Maryland law. See Arthur v. Ticor Title Ins. Co. of Fla., No. 07-1737-AMD, 2008 WL 7854915, at *6-7 (D.Md. Mar. 11, 2008).
. The complaint alleged six causes of action:
(1) Money had and received (Count One);
(2) Negligence (Count Two);
(3) Breach of contract (Count Three);
(4) Investment of proceeds of racketeering activity, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1692(a) (Count Four);
(5) Conducting or participating in a RICO enterprise, in violation of § 1692(c) (Count Five); and
(6) Conspiracy to violate RICO, in violation of § 1692(d) (Count Six).
. The motion to dismiss was filed before United General was terminated, leaving First American as the sole defendant. See ECF Nos. 5, 27. Because United General and First American jointly moved for dismissal and presented their argument as a unit, see ECF No. 3, and First American “assumed all of the-rights and liabilities of United General” when it acquired United General’s parent, ECF No. 5 at 1, the Court will treat the companies as a unit (First American) in analyzing the motion.
. See No. CCB-06-0705, ECF No. 105 (notice of appeal).
. See also Warren v. Sessoms, 676 F.3d 365, 372 (4th Cir.2012) (“Certainly, had [the plaintiff] made a specific demand in the amended complaint for actual damages and the defendants offered that amount or more, the offer of judgment would have mooted [the] action. Similarly, had [the plaintiff] quantified her alleged damages in response to a discovery request and the defendants offered that amount, her case would be moot. But, at this stage of the proceedings, before any evidentiary hearing or judicial fact finding in the district court, we simply cannot hold that [the plaintiff] could not possibly recover more than [actual damages] if her case proceeded to a jury trial.’’); Mitchell-Tracey v. United Gen. Title Ins. Co., 839 F.Supp.2d 821, 826 (D.Md.2012) (noting that the plaintiffs could file suit for punitive damages, even though compensatory damages might be unavailable because already obtained through the administrative process).
. Even if full relief had been provided to the Plaintiffs, the case still would not be moot because no relief has been tendered for the class claims. See, e.g., Pitts v. Terrible Herbst, Inc., 653 F.3d 1081, 1092 (9th Cir.2011) ("Only once the denial of class certification is final does the defendant's offer — if still available — moot the merits of the case because the plaintiff has been offered all that he can possibly recover through litigation.”); Lucero v. Bureau of Collection Recovery, Inc., 639 F.3d 1239, 1249 (10th Cir.2011) ("[A] nascent interest attaches to the proposed class upon the filing of a class complaint such that a rejected offer of judgment for statutory damages and costs made to a named plaintiff does not render the case moot under Article III.”); Sandoz v. Cingular Wireless LLC, 553 F.3d 913, 920-21 (5th Cir.2008) (timely filed motion for class certification relates back to the filing of the complaint so that a precertification offer of judgment does not moot the case); Kensington Physical Therapy, Inc. v. Jackson Therapy Partners, LLC, 880 F.Supp.2d 689, 694 (D.Md.2012) (finding “persuasive” holdings of courts employing the relation back doctrine to allow class action claims to go forward when no certification motion is pending and the plaintiff has received an offer of complete relief). This Court has not denied certification in the present case; indeed, a motion to certify has yet to be filed.
. "The statutory period [for a RICO claim] begins to run when a plaintiff knows or should know of the injury that underlies his cause of action." Pocahontas Supreme Coal Co. v. Bethlehem Steel Corp., 828 F.2d 211, 220 (4th Cir.1987).
. Cf. Wade v. Danek Med., Inc., 182 F.3d 281, 289 (4th Cir.1999) ("[I]n any case in which a state statute of limitations applies — whether because it is "borrowed” in a federal question action or because it applies under Erie in a diversity action — the state’s accompanying rule regarding equitable tolling should also apply.”); see also id. at 289 (collecting cases).
. Philip Morris USA, Inc. v. Christensen, 394 Md. 227, 905 A.2d 340, 355 (2006).
. This Court notes — although the parties have not — that the present action asserts different claims than those asserted in Mitchell Tracey I. Specifically, whereas Mitchell Tracey I asserted claims for violations of RESPA, money had and received, negligent misrepresentation, and civil conspiracy, this action asserts claims for violations of RICO, money had and received, negligence, and breach of contract. Compare No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 2, with Compl. Despite these variations in form, the respective complaints’ factual allegations are practically identical. Both complaints define the class as "a class of Maryland consumers whose property had, within tire previous 10-years, a validly issued title insurance policy — entitling them to a 40% discount off of the premium for newly issued title insurance policies by United General and/or First American — but who did not receive any such discount off of the premium for title insurance.” Compare No. WDQ-05-1428, ECF No. 2 ¶ 4, with Compl. ¶ 4. First American itself recognizes the actions’ similarities, characterizing the instant complaint as having "recycled]” that in Mitchell Tracey I. ECF No. 3-2 at 11. First American was "fairly placed on notice” of the claims now pending, and thus will not suffer prejudice by application of the tolling doctrine to them. Cf. Crown, Cork & Seal, 462 U.S. at 355, 103 S.Ct. 2392 (Powell, J., concurring).
. Forty-five days passed between March 1, 2005 (refinancing) and April 14, 2005 (filing of Mitchell Tracey I); an additional 709 days passed between May 5, 2010 (decertification) and April 14, 2012 (filing of this case).
. First American asserts that "[sjince Mitchell Tracey I was properly dismissed without prejudice, it did not toll any statute of limitations.” ECF No. 3-2 at 23-24. First American cites several cases for this proposition, but none is controlling or even involved the American Pipe class action tolling rule. Id. at 24 (citing, e.g., Quinn v. Watson, 119 Fed.Appx. 517, 518 n. * (4th Cir.2005) (per curiam) ("A Title VII action must be brought within 90 days of receipt of a right-to-sue letter issued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. In instances where a complaint is timely filed and later dismissed, the timely filing of the complaint does not "toll” or suspend the ninety-day limitations period.”) (internal citation omitted)). First American has not cited, and this Court is not aware of, any binding decision applying the above limiting principle in the American Pipe context.
. This Court need not address whether the Plaintiffs’ claims are timely under other equitable tolling principles. See ECF No. 3-2 at 25-26.
. Section 1962(a) provides, in relevant part, that
[i]t shall be unlawful for any person who has received any income derived, directly or indirectly, from a pattern of racketeering activity or through collection of an unlawful debt in which such person has participated as a principal ... to use or invest, directly or indirectly, any part of such income, or the proceeds of such income, in acquisition of any interest in, or the establishment or operation of, any enterprise which is engaged in, or the activities of which affect, interstate or foreign commerce.
To state a claim under § 1962(a), the Plaintiffs must allege that First American (the “person”) (1) received income directly or indirectly from a pattern of racketeering activity, and (2) used or invested, directly or indirectly, any part of that income in the operation of an enterprise engaged in or affecting interstate commerce. United States v. Vogt, 910 F.2d 1184, 1194 (4th Cir.1990).
. Under § 1962(c),
[i]t shall be unlawful for any person employed by or associated with any enterprise engaged in, or the activities of which affect, interstate or foreign commerce, to conduct or participate, directly or indirectly, in the conduct of such enterprise’s affairs through a pattern of racketeering activity or collection of unlawful debt.
To state a claim under § 1962(c), the Plaintiffs must allege First American’s (the “person”): (1) conduct or participation in (2) an enterprise (3) through a pattern (4) of racketeering activity. 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c); Sedima, S.P.R.L. v. Imrex Co., 473 U.S. 479, 496, 105 S.Ct. 3275, 87 L.Ed.2d 346 (1985).
. Section 1962(d) prohibits conspiring to violate the foregoing subsections. To allege a subsection (d) claim, the Plaintiffs must allege that "each defendant agreed that another co-conspirator would commit two or more acts of racketeering.” United States v. Pryba, 900 F.2d 748, 760 (4th Cir. 1990).
. Critically, the "distinctiveness” requirement is limited to § 1962(c) claims; § 1962(a) does not carry this requirement. Busby v. Crown Supply, Inc., 896 F.2d 833 (4th Cir.1990) ("[F]or a violation of § 1962(a), the offender and the enterprise need not be separate. They may be identical.”).
