HERE'S THE TRUTH,,,Speak against Mark Reyland and this is what you face in order for him to keep you quiet !

Mark Reyland will go to the extreme to silence anyone who speaks out against his con game. Here you will see proof of him contacting inventor Jon Young's employer, LinkedIn group owners, the police, FBI and other's.

Jon young has been the driving force to expose Mark Reylands lies and con game on inventor's.
Mark Reyland wants nothing more than to have him silenced so he can continue lying to inventor's and inventor professionals.

This was sent to us by Jon and asked to be posted as a warning to anyone who speaks the truth.

Recently, I was banned from Linked in, it all started for me when a profile of my name was created with the photo of a penis on my head photo shopped on, the name was Dickhead John Young. Along with this was a group started called Johnny Jack Off. It came after a lengthy battle exposing Mark. I cant prove it was Mark and Roger Brown, but it was very obvious it was because of the message and people he attacked, they were the same as Roger and Marks attacks and words.

I can take a joke and thought it was a good prank and thought it would be soon deleted. I was wrong, it remained and connections were made and groups were joined in that name and profile photo. I had inventors sending me the request for a connection sent to them as Dick Head and them saying, " I hope this is not you doing this, I thought you should know its being sent around ".

At this point I was ready to contact linked in and have it removed, so I wrote them and told them about it along with the fake profiles Mark and Roger Brown share, Johnny Franklin and Al Carson.
They took down the Dick Head profile. A week or 2 later it came back again, so I contacted them again.

At this point Mark Reyland must of complained as well once he was asked about this. As a result Linked in suspended BOTH OF US FOR 3 DAYS while they investigated. Mark Reyland and his UIA Inventor Forum was suspended for 3 days as well as 4 groups I owned and myself. I knew Mark Reyland had 3 profiles, but only 1 was suspended, he had 2 with his name and 1 as The UIA. { Yes linked in lets companies make profiles as members }. So I made another profile with my own name and one of my email addresses but no photo { because it was only temporary } to see what was happening. Well Mark Reyland and Roger Brown must have seen it, { it wasn't intended to be hidden } and contacted linked in because I got a message from linked in saying because you created another profile during your 3 day suspension, you are now suspended for 30 more days additionally.

I replied back to linked in saying Mark Reyland has 3 profiles, so why is it different for me. I made another one as myself and wasn't trying to hide who I was, so if you suspend me for the same thing he has and not suspend him its wrong. They did not reply back.

During this 30 day suspension I still got linked in updates emailed to me. I could see Mark Reyland using this suspension to his advantage slamming me and saying Im posting as fake profiles and my ban is permanent and " he and the UIA were instrumental in obtaining this ban and have been working closely with linked in checking I.P. address to prove it ". Well after the 30 days were up, I still couldn't access my account, so I contacted linked in to ask why. They replied back that they had been alerted that I was making up false profiles and my ban was now indefinitely.

I replied back, " you got to be kidding me, I know you have no proof it is or was me because it did not happen from me. So If I alert you that Mark Reyland has false profiles as Johnny Franklin and Al Carson and I show proof of him doing it in the past, will you lift my ban and place it on him."

So the next day I signed in, it accepted me but my old profile and groups were gone and it asked me if I wanted to start a profile. So I started a new profile and contacted linked in to let them know I had. { because the day before it wouldn't let me sign in and I let them know it accepted me }.

So Linked in must have taken my comment into consideration because I knew they had no proof it was me doing anything wrong and they were just taking someones word for it who had malice toward me. They allowed me to remain as a linked in member and I heard no more about it.

Next was I had to rejoin groups I was a previous member of { because when linked in banned me for the 1 day, I Lost my old profile and groups }, as I joined I noticed Mark Reyland and Roger Brown viewing my profile daily, along with this I noticed Roger Brown joining the same groups I did a day later. I Found it odd and knew they were up to no good, but wasn't sure what it was. Next thing I know is my new groups were blocking and banning me, even ones I never even commented in. And my request to join list remained unapproved { the groups you need approval to join }. Weeks go by and my groups dropped from 20 to 3. I knew it was because of Mark Reyland and Roger Brown complaining and lying about me.

See they failed to get me banned permanently from linked in, so there new strategy was to have me banned group by group. It was working the group owners would ban me and block any messages I could send to them.

I noticed Roger Brown joined another group I joined 2 days prior, but this time this group owner was a friend of mine from before all this happened. I knew what they were doing but couldn't contact any group owners to ask. I tried to message her via linked in, but it said " you are not authorized to contact this member ". I knew they had gotten to her first, so I left a comment on one of her discussions asking her to contact me. She did and said " I was informed you are under review by linked in, is there a reason for this ". I replied explaining what happened and asked for a copy of the message she received. She received this message in the morning and I contacted her in the evening of the same day, and if she didn't know me I would have been blocked and banned.

This is the message Mark Reyland sent to this group owner,

John C. Young (J.C. Young) has now joined your group. Mr. Young is a known criminal stalker and has just been let back on LinkedIn after a lengthy ban.

Additionally, Mr. Young and his friend Troy Dale Robison, have created no less than 11 fake profiles in names such as “Steven Cambell” “Tom Meeks” “Bonnie Lee” “Bill Nelson” and others that we track through the lengthy process of having LinkedIn remove them.

LinkedIn has been helpful in keeping these people under control, however the first line of defense is always the group owner.

Based on the history of this process, and in line with the over 20 groups that have now banned these stalkers from harassing their members, we ask that you take steps to protect your members by banning them and their fake profiles. Please reporting any out of line behaviors to LinkedIn at linkedin_support@cs.linkedin.com case number 121113-003352

Thank you in advance for your help in controlling this issue, and keeping the inventing community a safe place for new inventors to learn.

Mark,

I appreciate the notice However., answer me this. IF LinkedIn is aware of this or these people in which case. WHY in the world would they be let back into LinkedIn with the responsibility of filtering out these people by its busy online member and group hosts such as myself ?



                                        { Mark Reyland replies back }


One word xxxxx…. Lawyers.

LinkedIn is a user management system. They depend on the users to police their own input. In fact, under the law the more LinkedIn gets involved the more liability they have for the content.

It took over a year to get them to act on Mr. Young. He was stalking inventors in (and outside) many groups, creating fake profiles, and making threats against people who did not agree with him. If I’ve learned anything in the two years we’ve been dealing with this it’s that Mr. Young is an unstable and likely dangerous man.

LinkedIn started their process with a 3 day suspension and when Mr. Young violated that they suspended him for 30 days. During that time he created many fake profiles and continued to harass people both on LinkedIn and through emails, phone calls, and anonymous blogs.

Now, at LinkedIn's request, we are working with the group owners while they build the legal case that is needed to permanently ban him. This process takes a lot of time but in the end if we can help keep the inventing industry calm and safe for people to learn it’s well worth it.

Thanks for doing what you can to help xxxx

Mark


NOW LINKED IN DOES NOT A LEGAL CASE TO BAN SOMEONE !
Its all lies to scare her in to complying with his request { notice he says LAYWERS to make her think she will face a lawsuit }

This is not the first time he has contacted people with his lies. He contacted my employer that has nothing to do with any of this, Roger Brown provided him with the screen shot that was sent to my employer, also he had the police come to my door accusing me of threatening him. The detective shook his head as he left my door saying there is no proof here or on your computer { because I asked him to check my computer which he did, all he saw was the Johnny Franklin harassing emails sent to me which was really sent by Mark and Roger }

Here is the email he sent me earlier this year where he says he is contacting authorities and my employer Target .

John,

I wanted to let you know we filed criminal charges against you this morning for Cyber Stalking. Your emails, postings, threats, and rants provided us with ample documentation and left us no choice but to pursue legal action.

Over the past several months your behavior has become not only inappropriate, but increasingly unstable. We have made all the appropriate notifications to LinkedIn, Google, and Target to ensure public safety as you are obviously having trouble controlling your anger and rage. We will also be pursuing a federal protection order for both myself and the UIA at our earliest convenience.

It has always been our hope that you would act rationally and stop your attacks and threats, but unfortunately you have chosen other paths.

Good luck to you John, and I hope you find the help you need.

Mark

Mark,
Go a head and file a complaint, there has been absolutely no stalking. Ive never emailed you other than this time in response to your accusations. Ive never emailed you at work or home and never contacted any of you family and never will. The only communication we have had is on Linked in and we had them back and again until you got angry. after that you said in one of your earlier replies there that I was stalking you and was under investigation by the FBI and local law enforcement. I let this go as you just blowing off steam as we don't agree on things and your credentials . Proof of me not stalking you is our conversations on linked in. If you filed a complaint with the FBI, they would tell you to avoid all contact with me. But you didn't, you had correspondence with me on linked in as recently as last week. Some of the correspondence was friendly and inviting on both of our behalves, and when I question you and you cant or wont answer it, you start this stalking all over again. So know this, my employment has nothing to do with this and disagreement on any topic between us. And if I find out that my employer was contacted by you or anyone on your behalf, I will seek legal council. Ive only contacted you on the phone once by your invitation, other than that we never other than this email had contact with each other. Tell the investigation agents to call me at XXX XXX XXXX and I will be glad to discuss it with them openly and candidly.
Thanks
John young

John,

It's not a complaint - it's criminal charges for "Menacing by Stalking" and they have already been filed. You obviously studied up on the law, but you forgot to read the part about threats and 3rd party threats. Both qualify you as a stalker even without direct communication. Although your following me from place to place online is the same as you following me in person….it's also stalking.

We spend a lot of time going over what you say in your attacks and I'm afraid over time your rants crossed the line. But the real issue was your threats and the latest blog you did about Target. This is not normal behavior John, and you need to get some help.

How long did you think we were going to take these attacks John? You started out as just Troy's stooge and now look at you, you're in deep trouble and he's free and clear. Do you see him riding up to help you? no, he's going to let you and your family take the fall because to him you and Nancy and Pater are just tools…stooges to do his dirty work. Remember John, everything you hate about me came from him - and outside of your little group you don’t see anyone else complaining about me or how I treat inventors. Think about it John, if I was as bad as Troy brainwashes you into believing wouldn't there be others saying so? sure there would be - but there are not. You were used John and you took it too far.

I'm sorry John, but the legal system will take its course and in the end maybe you will learn you can't just attack people with lies all over the internet. I did nothing wrong, and neither did my family. I work very hard to help inventors and I will continue to work hard to help them.

Mark


{ OK this was in April of this year, 7 months later no investigation, His family was never contacted or harassed by me, in fact his Son Phillip Reyland called me on my phone acting as someone else trying to get information about a blog against his Daddy that they thought I was part of. Phillips mistake was not to block his number, I did a reverse number search to find it was him. }

THERE WERE NEVER ANY THREATS MADE TO HIM OR ROGER BROWN, NEVER.
AND HIS FAMILY WAS NEVER CONTACTED BY ME. AND THE ONLY PEOPLE I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ARE MARK AND ROGER BROWN FOR LYING TO INVENTORS.

My only " stalking " as he likes to call it was on linked in when I saw him lying and challenged him on it. He would never addressed the questions, he would lie and say  "John Young is a stalker and stalks " inventors " and if he contact's you to call the police", this is because he knew he was lying and had no way out.

The truth is The only people Ive had problems with is Mark for lying to inventors when I have proof he is and he wont address it or withdraw it and Roger Brown for supporting him and helping him in his defamation of me and his lies also.

The screen shot that was sent to my work was from Roger Brown. Roger made the mistake of sending me the screen shot before it was sent to my employer. I compared the 2 screen shots and they were the same. The screen shot shows your whole computer set up, just like looking at your screen you see the set up and the icons you have.

Mark Reyland and Roger Brown send harassing emails under false email addresses and profiles

Here we will see circumstantial evidence of Many emails being sent by who we " suspect " of being Roger Brown. Roger has always jumped in to defend Marks Lies and con game.

Here we will let you see the emails that were sent by Lance Livingston, someone who knows everything that goes on at linkedIn but has no profile there. He seems to have a love for Mark and Roger and a deep dislike for certain people.

" Lance " was asked several times for a phone call or skype conversation so he could prove he was real and not fake, but never would. He was asked to stop the harassing emails but refuses.

First lets see Rogers comment's in a LinkedIn group conversation.


    Roger Brown •Tom I think you have me confused with John, Nancy and Troy’s buddy Stephen key. He is the one selling videos, not me. Stephen had Troy listed as one of his experts on Inventornotes.com and just recently dropped him off the list and currently has Nancy listed as one of his interviews people can watch.

    I agree you should be asking him why he charges so much for his information. Because John and you should be asking him to give away all his information for free right? Don’t you agree Inventors could do a lot if they had the 1400 companies looking for inventions for free, instead he is charging almost $1,500 for that information. Or you can pay $30 a month for his other program. According to you and John shouldn’t he just post that for free if he truly wants to help Inventors? Or is there a double standard since he is their friend?

                                                                     AND

  • Group: Inventor's Forum
  • Discussion:Add To The List of Terms Inventors Should Know
  • And what about the people that can't afford or are unsure of the $1,500 or $30 a month you don't seem to mind Stephen Key charging? I don't see you making the same requests of him.
    Posted by Roger Brown
                              Now let's see some of "Lance's " emails.

Seems to us that everyone is learning about your group and shying away from each of you. We thought Troy and Stephen were big buddies. I guess the love affair is over once Stephne learned the truth about your group.

                 " Lance " was asked by a lady on this harassing email list to stop.

    And do what. I am not threatening you in any way. This is the same as you getting SPAM. So go ahead. That is your way of handling every situation isn't it. You threaten with the police, a lawsuit, I saw where you threatened to get your brother in law in the FBI to go after an inventor.

    We have done a lot of research of your group and how you act. You are very easy to read. You are one sorry ass bully until you get the same treatment then you whine like a little baby.
     Hey you idiots like to complain about people charging and not giving it away free. Look what your buddy Stephne Key is doing. Why don't you jump his ass? Look what he was giving away free. below
     
     Now look here http://www.ideapow.com/directories and your buddy Stephen is charging $30 a month to see his Free list. You and your group should be jumping his ass for screwing inventors. xxxx likes being the hero of the inventing world until it is someone he is kissing their ass just like Troy did with Stephen until Stephen dropped his ass. Guess there is no honor or ethics among you and your dumbass buddies.
        Steven did not drop Troy from the expert list, its only Roger and Lance that claim this.

    You know xxx you are really a dumbass. You keep saying Roger Mark like a broken record like that makes it real. You need to stop taking the drugs you are on that has you so paranoid you see people that are not there. LOL You really have things mixed up when you say I should stop emailing Nancy because she asked and you say she is a lady. You have a strange definition of a lady. That bitch has a real foul mouth on her, is a bully, likes to threaten people, lies, SPAMS everyone to win a contest and thinks the world has to bend to her wishes. That is why I don't consider her a lady that needs to be respected. Because she isn't a lady. Which is probably why her husband had to get away from her.
    When you talk about what people on linkedin know you neglected to mention they all know more about you getting banned and suspended for your shitty posts and your piss poor behavior than anything else you do. That is why we want you go right back to your shit so you can finally be banned altogether. What will you do without linkedin as your soap box to shout from at everyone? You must still be under suspension since you haven't shown up running your mouth.
    It looks like at least one person is ignoring you and your group. I asked Roger and Mark for any information about you and your group I could use and look what he emailed me back. I haven't heard from Mark yet. Looks like he doesn't consider you worth a shit. I agree.
                 { Notice, there is no email heading, He wrote it and copied it }
    Hi Lance,
    Thanks for writing. As for your request about wanting information on John and his friends I have to decline. You are wasting your time dealing with them. They aren't worth the trouble. Which is why I just don't respond to them anymore. All anyone has to do is watch what they do on Linkedin to see why they keep getting banned or suspended. Put your efforts into getting your products to market and just let John and his friends make fools of themselves by themselves. I hope you find success with your products.

    All our group has seen is your group bitching about the UIA. One of our group said they are having openings for new board members. Why don't all of you fill out the form for a seat on the board? That way you can try and change things the way you want from the inside? My bet is all of you don't have the balls to do it and would rather just be a bunch of whining bitches on the outside. If you don't join then quit complaining. It will be real easy to see if you applied or not
     { yes its real easy to see if we applied if you are Mark Reyland and Roger Brown, not anyone else would know } 
    so put your money where your mouth is. You certainly shoot your mouths off enough now. Lets see you do it. Our group has concluded if anyone will do it it will be Nancy since she has all of your balls in her purse anyway. LOL.

    As our inventor group has proven you and your group make assumptions without any proof and have been proven wrong a number of times. Your pal Peter is the one who nominated you so I guess he wants you to get the crabs as you say. Tell me why I should stop emailing xxxxx just because she asks? It is very clear you have been asked numerous times to stop your bullshit and quit ruining threads yet you still continue. Only after you get banned do you stop.
     { Mark Reyland and Roger Brown got this inventor banned for 30 days with thier lies to silence him. }
     I am just following your example. So if I am being an asshole it is only a reflection on you and your tactics.
    As far as your email address or anyone else's it isn't that hard to find.
     { He is talking about Peter who lives in New Zealand } 
    We do the same as you and your group and share information. I personally know of 36 inventors that have all of your email addresses. So your theory of who looks at your profile is the guilty party is bullshit.
     {{{ Roger Brown went to PETER'S Profile and viewed his profile and got his email address and Peter got his first " Lance " email the same day seen here. " Lance has no LinkedIn profile to see it, " Lance is Fake "

I should ask them and lets see if you aren't doing the same thing. If I was them I would check you out regularly so I would know what piece of shit you are posting about me. You would be surprised at how many people in our group and two other groups are all over your groups movements and postings.
    I see you don't mention how you overlook the methods of Stephen Key charging inventors monthly for his information when you tell others they should give it away for free. I guess that falls under your double standard again. It is only okay if it is someones ass you are kissing. I see xxxxx is already kissing it.
    So, when are you back out on parole with linkedin? { They are talking about the ban that was placed on this inventor that only Mark and Roger know about. } I look forward to seeing your ranting starting all over again. I believe you have sent out emails stating you would get everyone back for your suspension. Lets get it started. Do your worst because it will cost you more than anyone else when linkedin cans your dumb ass. Just like your company you will go down the same drain like the shit you are

    Now you have a man who claims to be " an achieved inventor with years of products in the retail market selling successfully and owns a product development company and is an executive director of the largest inventor resource.....But lives in a home valued less than $200.000, and has an answering and mailing service that He wants you to believe is his Office in the Heart of Washington D.C. where he claims to reside.

    Think about that !!!

    If you want to have some fun call the rental business line and tell them you will be down to the UIA office to see Warren Tuttle and Reyland and meet the staff. Watch them squirm !!!
    I did, they didnt know what to do or say !!!!

    Here is more proof Mark Reyland is no expert !

                                        This is Roger Browns discussion on LinkedIn.

    Roger is teaching the terms but needs to pull Mark Reyland to the side and explain things to him, so he dosent tell a room full of inventors " I never heard that term used "

    Roger Brown
    Roger Brown
    Add To The List of Terms Inventors Should Know.
     
    Kill Date, aka termination date or expiration date.

    A date in which a requirement is not completed by,or a date a contract will end.

    IE. a manufacture contracts to have your product completed on or before 12/21/12. According to the pesky Mayans the world ends on this date and the product is not completed. Your Kill Date terminates your contract so you are free to solicit any remaining manufacturers On 12/22/12.

    A kill date can be placed in any contract,it protects you from unnecessary delays and product's and conditions not being completed by the termination date, expiration date.

    Kill dates are also the dates placed on a licensing contract for the end of a contract term. After your Kill Date you are free to negotiate or obtain a new contract from another company.

      {  Surprisingly enough Mark Reyland doesn't know this term and says, " never heard of it ". The guy tried to explain Mark over talks him, the guy tries to explain with an analogy of a 17 year term to explain. Mark corrects him on the time frames. This guy finally gave up and said OK. This is some of the finest UIA education from its top instructor. Then he goes on to lie about his relationship and inventions for the company PRIM, which is proven on the other posts here. }

    UIA board member owned Invention Home under investigation by Irwin Tools for sending an email acting as Irwin Tools promoting Invention Home.

        New update as of 7/19/13....Invention Home post false licensing stories to have inventors think their licensing success rate is higher than it really is.

    We have spoken to 2 inventors out of 6 contact attempts to inventors listed as licensed via Invention Home. Only 2 replied back to our requests for information about their supposed licensing deals. The 2 that did reply back said they had gotten no licensing deals as posted by Invention Home. The first one was a lady said to have gotten a licensing deal via Invention Home. She told us that Invention Home put her in contact with a company and the deal fell through and nothing ever happened. The 2ND was a man said to have a licensing deal via Invention Home. He told us that no deal ever happened. They contacted Invention Home advised by us to have it removed because #1 its a lie and #2 someone that has interest in their invention may Google it and land in Invention Homes website and see its listed as licensed and pass on it. None of this is good for any inventors, not the ones reading the lies or the ones being lied about. We were told by these 2 inventors that Invention Home said it was a " blurp " and would remove it. Now we wonder how many of the others listed as Licensed are " blurps " also. This is what we THINK they are doing. They put you in touch with a company willing to look and as soon as they agree to review it Invention home at the Invention Home lists it as a successful licensing deal. 2 responded back and 2 had no deals but Invention Home bragged them as successes when nothing ever happened.

    So by this info posted just here alone with the lies about the licensing success and the lies sent to inventors submitting via Invention Homes Submit my Invention story below as companies that never sent what inventors thought they did. Also being a board member own companies by Russell Williams of the United Inventors Association who has executive director has copied an inventors invention for profit and who's president submitted it to the same company the original was licensed to. Should you trust them ???????? We can only post the facts, You be the judge !

    Here is the email this inventor sent Russell Williams owner of Invention Home and Submit My Invention and United Inventors Association board member.

    Hi Russ,
     
    Someone sent this to me last night and asked if I had a global licensing agreement through InventionHome and I replied that I had a short stint two years ago with xxx xxxxxx, who was totally busy with his wife with cancer and was never ever there for me, so I had to let him go. I still have nothing to speak of with you. Is this information on your website, letting people think I have something wonderful with you??? To date, I have nothing. When a license agreement doesn't work out, don't you think that by leaving this information on the site, you are costing me the opportunity for an agreement that may be a winner???
     

    InventionHome announces marketing agreement for "xxxxxxxxxxx".

    xxxxxx designed her unique product, titled “xxxxxxxx”, to provide greater organization for today’s on-the-go lifestyles.  Her storage system provides versatility and adaptability, and both xxxxx and the licensee are hopeful that it will appeal to mass audiences.

    Hi xxxxxxx,
     
    Russ at InventionHome said that it was a blurb about the license deal from 2011. I told him I cannot worry that someone will see that and believe I am all hooked up with a great deal, because that is the farthest thing from the truth. He said he will take it out tomorrow.
     
    Thanks for the heads up!
     
     
    So there is proof of their lies about licensing deals from 2011 until the date above, inventors believed it and the inventor was totally unaware that they posted it on the Invention Home website. Lies or " blurps " you decide !!!!!!

     { Google, Jacob enterprises Invention Home complaints rip off and see what you find , Note not every complaint is valid, some are from competing companies discrediting the other, but discussion groups comments are usually accurate because the person complaining is known and individuals that use their names and contact info. }

     { Note we will not post any stories without proof and anything we speculate will be clearly listed as such, we don't want to loose creditability by posting stories from inventors with no proof }


     { What brought this out to our blog was an Inventor that received the email acting as Irwin Tools contacted us and asked to post the story. }


    I submitted to Irwin Tools via Invention Homes website. I googled Irwin Tools invention submission and it led me there and claimed Irwin was on a product hunt. I clicked the link and it went to an official Irwin website, so I submitted my personal information which I thought would remain private and only for Irwin. Weeks when by and I got this email from  ( Submit my invention ) and supposedly signed and authored by Irwin Tools.

    Hello xxx,

    First I would like to thank you for taking the time to investigate this for me. I would like it if you would forward this email to your legal department.

    I would like to ask them this. Did Irwin Tools author this email to be sent to me to solicit the services of Invention Home { yes or NO please }

    If so What products have been successfully license via Invention home that would warrant this recommendation and positive experience and collaboration with Invention Home. { please provide a list of the inventions successfully licensed via invention Home.

    How did Invention get my contact information that I listed privately on your website via Invention Homes ( Submit My Invention ) that Irwin has a contract with ?

    And why did Irwin give ( Submit My Invention ) my personal information that I thought was privately submitted to Irwin Tools ?

    And since my information that was sent privately to Irwin Tools, was my invention also disclosed to ( Submit My Invention ) ?

    Submit My Invention is owned by Invention Homes owner, were you aware of that before contracting with them ?

    If your answer is no that Irwin is not responsible for this email sent to me below signed Irwin Tools and have no idea of the breach in private information, let me inform you of what my investigation revealed.

    The sent address on the email says Submit My Invention it is CCd to invention home by the owner of both companies. If you google Submit My inventions sent email address it takes you to invention Homes owner. This is a scam to obtain personal information to solicit their company to inventors that Irwin rejected { If Irwin even looked at the invention }. Submit My invention solicits Invention Home for a time, when no correspondence is sent back from the recipient, it goes up for sale and gets sent to companies that pay for the contact information to solicit their companies after Invention Home had their go at them. Now I don't deal with invention submission companies, BUT might consider them if a reputable company like Irwin Tools recommends them so highly. This is misleading to all inventors seeking an honest company like Irwin Tools to work with and if Irwin declines the invention submitted, that should be the end of it. As it is I feel Irwin is responsible for giving my contact information to a questionable submission company and opening the doors for me to get scammed. Russ Williams { the owner of both Submit my Invention and Invention Home } sent me an email trying to explain it. As you will see in his email he did not answer if Irwin authored this email and how he got my personal information or if they saw my invention. He was aware of the accusations because it was posted on linked in inventors groups as a warning along with the sent email signed as Irwin Tools. I sent a reply to his explanation that remains unanswered and no other correspondence and happened.

    I would Hope Irwin Tools takes the appropriate action on behalf of inventors and also so it doesn't damage Irwin's reputation working and endorsing an company like Invention Home that has a long list of complaints. I would Hope Irwin ceases all dealings with Submit My Invention and cancels their contract with them for fraud and deceptive behavior putting honest inventors at risk of the scams of invention submission companies and endorsing them.

    I hope you give me the courtesy of replying with direct answers as I took the time and still pursue protecting Irwin's name and inventors everywhere. Below you will see the emails sent to me by Irwin and signed by Irwin and The owner Russ Williams email explaining it and my reply that remains unanswered.

    Thank You
    xxx xxxxx

    xxx,
    I wanted to follow up on your LinkedIn post from last week. I saw the post with the email below included and since this was the only email I received on 10/11/12 at 11:18am, I figured it was your post.
    Please let me clarify so you don't get the wrong idea about the submission and email from Irwin Tools.
    About two years ago, we had an opportunity to help a large organization streamline their process of receiving and evaluating incoming product submissions from outside sources. As a result, we developed an online submission management system that enabled the organization to accept, review and evaluate their product submissions (i.e.: their own system). The system saved them a lot of time and made the whole process very easy to manage.
    Afterwards, we realized that if we could provide other companies with the same ability to accept and manage product submissions we could create a lot of value and streamline the process for how companies manage their incoming submissions. Plus, it would provide us with a much more efficient way of sharing our inventor client's products with our company clients.
    Today, we have a lot of companies that use this system to manage their process, Irwin is one of them. When you submitted to Irwin Tools, you submitted directly to them through their submission system, linked to their website. Here's the page on their website - http://www.irwin.com/about-us/contact-us (click the "click here" link on the inventor line). We just pointed directly to this submission form from our blog. To learn more about our system and how it works, go to www.submitmyinvention.com.
    Also, please understand that this is an independent system or piece of online software that each company uses and manages on their own. Although, we give them the system, we don't have anything to do with managing the information or the inventors who submitted to them. I believe a system like this is a win/win for everyone involved... Here's why....
    1. We now have a better way to convince more and more companies to embrace "open innovation" and accept outside inventor opportunities by making it much easier for them to manage. Everyone wins if more companies are willing to license inventions from outside sources.
    2. This opens the door for inventors to submit directly to these companies at no cost (i.e.: what you did with Irwin Tools).
    3. We also help promote companies to the inventor community, thus driving opportunities directly to them at no cost. Note: We call this a "Product Hunt" and we do not charge the company to market them nor do we charge the inventors to submit to the companies (it's a win/win). We'd like to start doing more of these Hunts each month.
    4. Once a company begins using our system to manage all of their own incoming innovation, we have a more efficient and streamlined way to electronically submit our client's products directly to these companies with a higher level of attention. Please keep in mind that we do not charge large fees to inventors and we never lock them up into a contract limiting their marketing options.
    Since these companies are able to see first-hand how we're able to share our clients products with a wide range of companies, many of them recommend us to the inventors of the products they pass on. Hence the email you received below.
    Finally, I'm not sure what your invention is but, since it is in the Tool category, I can provide you with some other leads. Both Hyde Tools and Empire Level use our system and I know they are actively looking for new tool products. Not sure how or if yours fits but, you might want to give them a try. Sites - www.hydetools.com and www.empirelevel.com (the submission form links are on their menu bars).
    Thank you and best of luck with your invention.
    Russ

    Russ,

    It was not my post, I'm temporarily blocked from linked in because of all the crap with Reyland. I did however post it as a comment on the Mark Reyland blogspot and it was posted as I asked. Someone picked it up from there. Irwin did not author that email as it was, I contacted them and asked, why do they promote a submission company. They know nothing about it, but their legal department is investigating it. So its to streamline the process? Well would you like to tell me how you got the info I submitted to them on their website. You have my info and I got a call from your company soliciting services, also 2 other companies called me. So you got and gave {well actually you sold } my personal info I sent to Irwin. I know this because I purposely missed their calls and played phone tag and left my email as a contact and show interest in their services. I learned they bought my info by acting interested in their services and being buddy buddy with them. I have it in an email with the name of the company that sold it. Would you like to guess who that company is that sold personal info that I submitted to Irwin ? Also if you saw that from their " site " you also had access to what I submitted. So that's my personal info you got under fraudulent means as well as my I.P. Rights have been violated.

    You cant violate privacy issues to sell and promote for profit. I didn't want a submission company to see my info, it was for Irwin, and its fair to say they are less than pleased with you using them to defraud  inventors.
     




     



     






    { Now Warren Tuttles defence of Mark Reyland, his accomplishments outweighs his lies and deception, seems to be what Warren is saying }

    From the UIA Board President




    My name is Warren Tuttle and I am the President of the Board of Directors for the United Inventors Association.
    It is my sincere pleasure to donate a considerable amount of volunteer time and effort to the pursuit of non-profit inventor education. For those who do not know me personally, I have never accepted a dollar of upfront money from any inventor that I have ever assisted…and there have been many thousands with whom I have helped one way or another along the way. I have been incredibly blessed to participate in the launch of some highly successful and innovative products over the years. I also direct a cutting edge Open Innovation Program for a dynamic, inventor friendly company. Perhaps this will help explain why I have never charged an inventor a fee for my time or advice. I wish only the best for every aspiring inventor in this country, and like many other professionals in the industry I do whatever I can to help.
    I am writing this column because there are a few things you may not know about the UIA and in particularly Mark Reyland, the Executive Director of the United Inventors Association.
    I am here pledging my support and personal reputation within the greater inventor community to help explain several behind the scenes things about Mark that many of you may not be aware of, and the tremendous accomplishments he has initiated during the past two years as our Executive Director.
    First and foremost, Mark is the most purely dedicated and passionate supporter of inventors that I have ever met. Hands down. Period. I have met many folks who might qualify as finalists for such an honor, but Mark certainly gets my personal vote.
    I have spent hundreds of hours speaking with Mark about inventor issues. We speak during the day, late in the evening, Saturdays and Sundays; we even find time to talk when either of us is on extended travel around the US or the world. There is never a time when Mark is not 100% up for the call. This does not mean that we always lock-step agree on every topic that we debate. Sometimes I learn from Mark, and sometimes he learns from me. But, we always dissect the issues and arrive at the place we both know we need to be …what’s best for the inventor. This refrain ultimately guides our course of action in everything we do in this community.
    Sometimes Mark’s passion is expressed in unique ways. He is not always a politician. Sometimes people misunderstand his directness. Mark can be very charming, but on occasion, people who do not know Mark inadvertently misinterpret his passion and tremendous focus on getting the task at hand accomplished. For those who know him and see him in action on a regular basis though, we all admire his candor and are always amazed at his knowledge, work ethic and drive. Please know that Mark regularly puts in 60 to 80 hours a week at the UIA and spends upward of 200 days a year traveling between inventor clubs, Washington DC (where he leads the UIA effort to strengthen inventor protection legislation and enforcement ) , meetings, and tradeshows…never complaining.
    When we hired Mark as the Executive Director of the UIA two years ago, he was by far the best candidate for the position. I am not just referring to his resume, though in fact his resume is very impressive. Where Mark truly stood out was in the personal interview process. He was screened several different times by the hiring sub-committee of the UIA Board. I then personally spent almost two hours speaking to Mark. I could tell from the opening discussion that he knew the inventor community very well. He had extensive experience in the commercialization of products and a plethora of great ideas about how to improve our organization and help inventors.
    It was a critical time for the UIA to get back on track performing the mission it was designed for when originally founded as an extension of the USPTO over 20 years ago. We all agreed unanimously that Mark was the right person to lead the revival.
    Mark has not disappointed. He first set about getting our UIA fiscal house in order. He streamlined and cut unnecessary expenses, while immediately setting and executing a course for increasing necessary revenues.
    This came at a critical time when the Board had additionally voted to eliminate all fees for UIA inventor memberships, placing greater pressure on Mark to raise working capital through private donations. After two years, the UIA is today in sound fiscal shape. Our corporate membership criteria have been strengthened and many terrific new outside supporters have been generated.
    I might add that Mark is now setting our sights on even more non-profit donations, and implementing a grant program that will eventually help diversify overall UIA financial support. By the way, our individual inventor membership has grown by over 260% since Mark came on board, so we must be doing something right.
    Mark’s next task was to strengthen a supportive relationship between the UIA and the almost 100 UIA certified inventor clubs around the country. These are real inventors attending club meetings monthly, so this is an incredibly valuable mission. Mark has extended the hand of friendship to these clubs by supplying speakers to the clubs, purchasing Skype kits to allow speakers to present long distance, organizing DRTV product review sessions and traveling himself to over 30 clubs each year to personally thank the club leadership, and make sure the clubs know about the educational tools and the many efforts taking place on their behalf at the national level.
    Next came strengthening our UIA Inventor Showcase programs with inventor booths and educational programs at industry trade shows; an incredibly daunting and valuable effort. The UIA had hosted the National Hardware Show Inventor Spotlight Pavilion for several years when Mark became ED and the Board wanted to expand the template. In less than two years, Mark has lead us to host inventor programs at The Chicago Toy and Game show, The PGA Golf Show, International Housewares Show, The SPREE show, The Global Pet Expo, The Craft & Hobby Show, and expended the Hardware show inventor area from 60 to 125 booths with a goal to host Inventor Pavilions at a dozen major industry trade shows.
    These trade show deals are very complicated to negotiate and execute. Anyone who has ever experienced one of these events knows how valuable they are to inventors, connecting them with industry leaders and getting actual licensing agreements signed. Today the Inventor Spotlight Trade Show Program is a bell weather asset for the UIA and a successful educational program for inventors.
    Here are a few other UIA projects Mark has put a great deal of passion and leadership into over the past two years.
    He organized the UIA’s involvement in the current QVC Sprouts program; a big time effort to allow inventor’s easier access to one of America’s finest TV retailers. He has arranged with Auburn University a college level accredited course in inventing that, after initial testing, may be rolled out to universities around the country. He has researched and supported efforts to expand crowd funding financial models to assist inventors in raising capital for start-up ventures. He has helped improve UIA relations with the USPTO and other inventor dedicated non-profit groups and individuals. He has initiated inventor friendly PR campaigns around the country and advised on developing virtual internet inventor clubs to reach more rural communities. He built the UIA Inventor Education Forum, The UIA Education Linkedin Groups, and, he writes a daily inventor blog 5 days a week, in a continuing effort to educate those folks new to the inventing process. These are just some of the things Mark has been responsible for developing.
    So, the next time you hear something said, or written, about Mark Reyland, please take a moment to consider all Mark does for the inventor community. These are Real projects, productive initiatives, and results oriented endeavors. I can assure you he is putting his time, day and night, into helping aspiring inventors. He has my respect and that of many other professionals in our industry.
