Like many fraudulent operations, this one (digsound) probably started with good
intentions, but at some point, it became nothing but a scam. Creator, Paul
Martin, took investors' money, (.investments in his penny stock, personal
checks, cash or wire transfers) and then spent most of the money on his personal
lifestyle. He restored and leased cars, hired dozens of prostitutes for himself
(I'm probably being conservative on this estimate) and enjoyed a bicoastal
lifestyle (apartments in Santa Monica and Manhattan).
Of course he responds to people's criticism on these sites, boasting about his
"legitimate" company and brags/aspires for sympathy for all of his terribly hard
work, but this is exactly what scam artists do. Scam artists wouldn't succeed
at all if they didn't have a product that "appears" to have potential for
success.
It's true what other posters have reported on these websites that are dedicated
to revealing scam artists. Despite Mr. Martin's responses and supposed
willingness to communicate with his accusers, he is being pursued by many
victims of this scam and possibly other shady enterprises. Where there's smoke,
there's fire. DO NOT communicate with him. DO NOT "invest" in him. I hope that
more people who have experienced any form of financial or business impropriety
with Mr. Martin will come forward and share their experiences on these boards.
My hope is that the FBI will finally begin investigating him. He is a criminal
and should be charged for his multiple crimes that have been occurring for over
a decade. He scams people in different states and wries-transfers money using radio frequencies, via fax transmission and other means... interstate wire fraud.
