From the FTC's complaint against World Patent Marketing, tied to the acting AG: "For the last three years, Defendants have operated an invention-promotion scam that has bilked thousands of consumers out of millions of dollars." ftc.gov/system/files/d…

The amended complaint, however, does include references to the Advisory Board on which he served. ftc.gov/system/files/d…
