George Tran was wrong and still is.

George Tran now admits that just as Creditwrench said, he is wrong. The problem is that he still is in his new book. He is wrong in many, many ways.

Most of what he says sounds very plausible as do most scams. For instance, he says that his name is copyrighted or maybe trademarked. That old scam has been around for a long, long time. The idea that you can copyright your name in any form is simply nonsense. You might be able to trademark your name if you have a business or corporation under that name and nobody else has trademarked it previously.

The courts simply will not go along with the idea of copyrighting one's name. Back in 2004 U.S. Magistrate Judge Bristow Marchant accused me of being one of the teachers of that nonsense and of course nothing could have been further from the truth. I have always railed against such stupidity. As always, people will believe anything that comes along and most of George Tran's nonsense is a shining example.

For instance, in his revised comedy of errors he gives a long list of court cases and claims that they have been unpublished and hidden from the public. Such a claim is simply not true.

George goes into a long diatribe about what a lawyer might ask a banker in a court trial. Such a lengthy diatribe would never be allowed in a court of law. It would be considered badgering the witness. It is nothing more than the inner workings of an overactive imagination. In any such court hearing the only question before the court is whether or not the defendant owes the money. Nothing else is of any importance to the court.

Another reliable indicator that the whole thing is nothing but a scam foisted upon the gullible is the example of the Oregon court case. The problem with that petition is that there is no visible cause of action. There is no allegation that the defendant has done anything wrong. No cause of action means the case will be thrown out of court without ever being heard.
