January 21 2013 The UIA has a new scam company SOURCE DIRECT from WARREN TUTTLE & MARK REYLAND To the inventors they represent

Well folks it didn't even last a month in to the new year before Warren and Mark inducted a company that lies about its locations all over the world, lies with photo-shopped pictures with a name change in the building different on both the UIA blog spot and the Source Direct website. It lists its testimonial's from clients posted by company associates acting as satisfied paying clients.

Source Direct wants the inventors to think they are a large company with a huge building in locations all over the world...truth is its 1 man in a little suite running 3 small companies from his desk. If you call you get a message to enter the parties extension you wish to speak to but lists no names for you to choose, it says if you don't know your parties extension to enter ext 200 and the call goes direct to the one desk in the office manned by Ed Muaro owner of CLUB CLEAN, DBA { Doing Business As } SOURCE DIRECT. Yes folks this huge company is a DBA.

The owner was asked questions from an inventor about the validity of Source Direct and was told to call on the phone. But this inventor pressed via email and now we have the proof with photos, emails, an unsatisfied former clients phone call.


And get this Ed Mauro of Source Direct claims a 100% profit vs investment by inventors from start to finish. All the other submission companies have a .005% percentage, but Source Direct has broken any record ever set by any invention company, good company or bad company. Source Direct claims 100% satisfaction and profit !

 
 
 
 
                  Here is the real building and its perun components

So get ready for proof of the newest UIA scam against inventors, by Ed Mauro, Warren Tuttle Mark Reyland and the wonderful United Inventors Association.

Lets start from the beginning at the UIA blog spot where Warren and Mark allowed this company in the UIA and endorsed the company publicly to drive inventors to Source Direct
Now notice the name under the Chinese writing. It say's Perun rubber and plastics co


Now look at the UIA blog spot the building is now gone because the scam was discovered and emailed to Warren, But the company that pulled the scam remains as a certifed UIA member !

Now look at the image search. You will see the real company that owns this building  "Perun Components ", also here you will see the stolden images Source Direct uses and the image the UIA used with a different name than Source Direct uses photo-shopped in. And you will see the cleaned up post by the UIA after I made Warren and Mark aware that I found their con game. So do they get rid of Source Direct ? NO they hide the image !


                   And here is Source Directs other photoshopped image on its website !





 
 
So now here you see the full stories of both the stolden image and the cleaned up story after I emailed Warren and Mark and told them I discovered their attempt to scam inventors. Look at the 6th and 7 th story.
 
 
Here is the email sent to then telling of the discovery

Subject: You have got to be kidding me !
I was just sent this from an inventor on linked in. Great job being the watchdog for bad companies, who the hell photoshoped the photo and why. Why is this business owner claiming 100% success. Why is it a DBA and new. Why are the people that say he does a great job all his business partners.
My bet Is that Mark knows this guy from the PGA show and talked him into starting a company and made the website for him and was the one that photoshoped that company photo
Way to go UIA you let the best of the best in for inventors. The guy owns a golf company and security company, so he an expert in getting products to market ?
Joe are you the fool that critiqued this company, I would expect nothing less considering you " don't know who to trust " http://www.edisonnation.com/forums/other/topics/who-to-trust
Wait until Bill gets a hold of this story, he going to blast it and I'm sure he will get a hold of the inventor who posted to get the emails. I cant believe all of you are such fools, so it will be shown for what it is.
This is the funniest thing Ive read in weeks, thanks guys for keeping me entertained.

Has anyone heard of SOURCE DIRECT, I saw them listed and emailed and what I found was disturbing and a clear warning to stay away.
I saw this company listed here http://inventoropinion.blogspot.com/ so I emailed them. While researching them I saw the photo of the building they claim to have as a resource on the bottom of this story.

Then went to their website and saw the same photo of the building , same shot from the same camera but noticed the writing on the sign in front different from the one above posted in that article.
http://www.thesourcedirect.net/about.html Look at the photo of the building on the bottom right.

So I thought this is not right, so I put the photo in google image search and found the source of the real photo. here it is http://www.perun-components.com/contact/.

Someone photo shopped the name in and changed the real name and removed the name from the building on the top right side of it.

WHY ?

So I searched the company name in the Florida business network and found no listing, but the company owner is listed as owning a security company and a company called Club Clean and at the same address listed as the Source Direct website.

So I emailed him after calling several times and getting his answering machine and asked how long has Source Direct been in business. He said since 1993 and all of their clients that started and finished with his company made more money that they spent { all of them } He wouldn't say how many but told me to go to his website and see.

So I looked at his 3 testimonials and googled their names, they are all his business partners or are tied to him in one of his companies. Now I'm really getting suspicious. So I started asking questions via email.

I asked how long his website has been active, he said he doesn't know he doesn't handle that .

I asked for 3 references I can call, he avoided answering that question but answered the ones he wanted to.

Source Direct has recently applied for a trademark on the name, they are A DBA { doing business as } of Club Clean a golf accessory supplier.

The owner of Club Clean DBA Source Direct, is involved with the PGA and now was just inducted in to that organization in the blog posted first. I asked who approved the application to be listed as a creditable resource, His reply was " the Board "

Now does this sound like a company that should be sponsored and advertised to inventors as a good resource ?

I'm kind of outraged that this organization would put me at risk like this by sponsoring a new company that photoshopped buildings and lists them as their resource and Has a 100% claim of success from start to finish and list testimonial's from their business partners as clients and has a voice mail when you call and runs 3 different businesses from a little suite listing the same address and wont provide references.There is so much more to tell but you get the idea.

I asked him about the photoshopped building's and got no reply, I called and only got his voicemail. All communication stopped after that, he never replied back.

Am I wrong for researching and feeling this way, I have all the emails that show it and more !

Should this company be certified and sponsored and advertised as a creditable resource ?

TO BE CONTINUED LATER !
