Yeah, I know a couple of people who have thrown massive peeringdb operations up just to make them look big but their routing table analysis looks nothing like what they say they have.

Subject: Is there an established method for reporting/getting removed a company with 100% false peeringdb entries?

First, take a look at this:

https://www.peeringdb.com/asn/18894

Now look at these (or use your own BGP table analysis tools):

https://bgp.he.net/AS18894

https://stat.ripe.net/18894

The claimed prefixes announced, traffic levels and POPs appear to have no correlation with reality in global v4/v6 BGP tables.

It is also noteworthy that I have inquired with a number of persons I know who are active in network engineering in NYC, and nobody has ever encountered this company.
