CREDITWRENCH and trademark registration
CREDITWRENCH CEO Bill Bauer has advertised on his website/blogs and even posted to message boards, the name CREDITWRENCH followed by ®. This would indicate that CREDITWRENCH is a federally registered trademark and properly filed with the US Patent and Trademark Office.
However, the USPTO has no record of any such registration.Quoting from §906.04 issued by the USPTO, "use of a federal registration symbol that is deliberate and intended to deceive or mislead the public is fraud".
Now why isn't it suprising that CREDITWRENCH has committed fraud? Well for one thing, it's his specialty. He advertises that he does credit repair, but because he's not compliant with federal statutes in the operation of a credit repair business, he then denies it. He claims to be incorporated in the state of Oklahoma, however CREDITWRENCH is not registered with the Oklahoma Secretary of State as a corporation.
Those 3 things alone show that CREDITWRENCH is nothing more than a scam indended to bilk unwary consumers of their money.
