Frank Del Vecchio Previously Committed Fraud In Another Company Before AMBER Ready!

Frank Del Vecchio
Deputy Police Chief of Fairview New Jersey, is no stranger to fraud. Before becoming the CEO of AMBER Ready, Mr. Del Vecchio formed a company to pose as the US Consumer Protection Agency. Mr. Del Vecchio's Company was named "US Consumer Protection" to fool subscribers and businesses into thinking they were dealing with the federal agency formed to protect consumers from individuals like Mr. Del Vecchio. Mr. Del Vecchio formed, owned and operated the US Consumer Protection as a side business while he was the Deputy Police Chief of Fairview, New Jersey. Mr. Del Vecchio was also the former Director of Public Safety of Bergen County and used his law enforcement background to get organizations to support his fraudulent business.


Mr. Del Vecchio operated US Consumer Protection from a shabby 2nd floor office that was converted from an old two family house at 42 S. Maple Avenue, Ridgewood, New Jersey; not from the elegant Federal Trade Commission Building located in Washington, DC. Mr. Del Vecchio's company charged consumers to file reports with Mr. Del Vecchio's company, which is a free service offered by the US Consumer Protection Agency of the Federal Trade Commission. Mr. Del Vecchio also charged business to be listed as an approved company from US Consumer Protection and provide companies with logos for their doors and websites. Many business paid Mr. Del Vecchio's company to fool customers into believing their companies were approved by the Federal Trade Commission's US Consumer Protection Agency. Mr. Del Vecchio paid to have his company appear as the first company retrieved in internet searches for "consumer fraud", "consumer protection" and "approved businesses". Mr. Del Vecchio charged business to "Become a USCP Certified Business" and to receive referrals. Companies and consumers that paid Mr. Del Vecchio company were abandoned when Mr. Del Vecchio closed his company in 2008. Mr. Del Vecchio could no longer afford to operate the company as word got out that Mr. Del Vecchio's company was a fraud. Business and consumers were required to contact the US Consumer Protection Agency to report US Consumer Protection to receive a refund. When Mr. Del Vecchio closed down his company called US Consumer Protection, and took the company's website offline. Unaware of internet archives that preserved the website in archived files, Mr. Del Vecchio thought his prior fraudulent operation could be concealed.

Larry Engell was an employee of Mr. Del Vecchio's fraudulent company called US Consumer Protection. Mr. Engell was hired by Mr. Del Vecchio to work for AMBER Ready after the former CEO was terminated for not issuing shares to defraud investors in a stock manipulation scheme. Mr. Del Vecchio forged documents to present to the AMBER Ready's Board of Directors cause the former CEO's termination. Mr. Del Vecchio hired Mr. Engell to work for AMBER Ready after the former CEO was no longer an officer of the Company. Under the management of Mr. Del Vecchio, AMBER Ready failed to develop a replacement working mobile phone child safety application to replace the initial working mobile phone application designed by the former CEO. Mr. Engell was hired to manage the Company while Mr. Del Vecchio worked as the Deputy Police Chief of Fairview, New Jersey. "Mr. Engell had no background in child safety, mobile phone software, internet software, computer networks, sales, public relations, investment banking, accounting, product fulfillment or running a 24-hour call center, which made him the most qualified person to run the Company"; said a former employee while laughing.

Mr. Del Vecchio eventually terminated all of the AMBER Ready employees accept Mr. Engell, who answers the phones during the day and arranges for the calls to be routed to the Bergen County Sheriff's Department in the evening. Mr. Engell is also selling off the Company's assets, including all furniture, computer equipment, copiers, scanners, shredders, telephone equipment, video equipment and televisions. Since the company has none of the 14 million dollars funded into the Company last year, revenue from the sale of the Company's assets well go to pay Mr. Del Vecchio's and Mr. Engells salaries.

In addition to Mr. Del Vecchio committing consumer fraud though his prior company called US Consumer Protection, Mr. Del Vecchio has committed consumer fraud, securities fraud and forgery as the CEO of AMBER Ready. Many of Mr. Del Vecchio's acts of fraud were committed while he was on duty said one former employee in a notarized affidavit. Having committed fraud in two (2) companies, from as early as 2006, will authorities allow Mr. Del Vecchio to continue without being held responsible, because he is a public official?

P.S.

Since this information was posted, John Thomas Financial was been charged with fraud by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and FINRA, Frank Del Vecchio has stepped down as CEO, AMBER Ready's successor company Galxy Media and Marketing Corp has Shutdown, and John Thomas Financial has shutdown. With the help of several former AMBER Ready employees, the more than 35 million shares Frank Del Vecchio issued to John Thomas Financial's hedge fund, which they intended to dump on the market at $10 per share, was prevented by the SEC. CNBC has also recently produced a television story called "Greed and Fraud" that exposed the fraud committed by John Thomas Financial, which was committed with the help of now Fairview Police Chief Frank Del Vecchio (http://bit.ly/1bd4FBq).
