A recent "publication" by Advanced Technology Publishing is www.yourcommunitynews.com which according to the current image on the site will be coming in March 2004 and proposes a "news forum and events calendar chronicling the contributions, critical thought, and accomplishments of African-Americans in Science, Medicine, Technology, Politics, and Business". You can see how that looked before the site changed a year later (as of April 2005).

On the new version of the Your Community News website, David Waathiq has started using a new deception. If you look at this image of the page you will see an (R) registered trademark designation next to the Advanced Technology Publishing logo (top right, we marked it with a red arrow). There is NO registered trademark in ANY of the categories available at the USPTO (US Patent Office) associated with Mr. D. Waathiq or any of his deceptive companies such as AdSalesMark.

This circled R designation can not be used until federal registration is issued. False use of a notice of federal registration can result in the denial of federal registration or refusal of enforcement by a court. This once again shows the deception strategy in which David Waathiq attempts to make his business dealings appear more trustworthy.

All it really shows is that Mr. Waathiq does not even take his own fraudulent activities all that seriously. The site says it will be launched in May 2005 which means that perhaps in June 2006 we will see another design with new void content.

The Watch-Team wonders whether this nebulous "publication" will find itself in the exact same category as the failed publications such as there were (never were, actually, since they were all scams of Mr. Waathiq);

Mr. Waathiq did not change the information phone number and continues to use 1.800.431.0358 again.

We need to urge potential investors and contractors to be extremely careful when interacting with any business that involves Mr. David Waathiq. Especially since he remains active as an illigitimate business that has never registered to do business in the state of California.

If, in the past, you have invested money in land or realestate as part of your IRA pension plan though Mr. Waathiq (or through KEOPS, Inc.) you may want to pay close attention to the following. If Mr. Waathiq and/or KEOPS, Inc. had been managing the investment placed under PENSCO San Francisco or PENSCO Portsmouth the chances are that your investment has vanished and that any distribution of funds and/or land and/or realestate that is due in 2004 will not materialize. You may also find that your account with PENSCO will be reduced to pocket-change or a handful of pennies. You can find more information on KEOPS, PENSCO, Antelope Valley, and Mr. Waathiq on this page.

Disclaimer: PENSCO offers a comprehensive list of IRA permitted investments such as: real estate, private stock, partnerships, notes, annuities, deeds of trust along with common stock, mutual funds, CDs and many more. Please note that PENSCO is not the party undertaking the fraudulent activities described on this page. We received word through our grapevine that they are also a victim of Mr. Waathiq's so-called business activities.

Mr. Waathiq is known to make many fraudulent attempts in order to get you to allow him to manage your finances, financial resources, assets, or pension plan and fund.

Please do NOT EVER allow him to do that regardless of his smooth talk and promises. It wouldn't be the first time that he will forge signatures and paperwork in order to dig deeply into your money and take as much out of it as he can. He will then give you a lot of stories and more smooth talk that everything will be fine while in fact he only does that so that you might not be able to get him to face criminal charges filed by a district attorney.

Please NEVER sign any paperwork with this man, NEVER give him your credit card details, NEVER allow him to know much about you and NEVER give him your SSN (social security number).

If you fear that he may be stealing your identity or using the details he knows about you for further crimes, fraud, or other scams then please read this excellent article on Avoiding Identity Theft and Credit Card fraud by Eve Abbott, Organizer Extraordinaire.
