"If we are to save the Internet from con artists we need to confront the curse of Market Depravation by Obfuscation"
Having been the first to initiate UMAT training in Australia we often see unqualified and uncredentialled "Amateurs" including university students trying to make a quick dollar from unsuspecting students and parents.
This is tragic and most disappointing for all concerned. Anonymity, reverse quasi anonymity tactics and market depravation by obfuscation are often applied in the hope that "shoppers" don't read critically or check well. Anyone can pop up lists of qualified people including relatives to distract readers attention from the relevant facts omitted obfuscatorily. As an innocent reader one might be tempted to think that such qualified people endorse the products sold at a particular site. Unless you see "clear words of endorsement written by the professional themselves" rather than deceptive and obfuscatory name dropping exercises we say Caveat Emptor - Buyer Beware!
For example on one site: COPY AND PASTE THE FOLLOWING INTO YOUR BROWSER: http://www.medentry.com.au/sponsors.asp
While there are numerous people who contribute to our products and services in various ways, we wish to particularly thank the following professional consultants:
What does this mean?
Why put peoples names and qualifications up in public without clear explanation? How do such qualified people endorse the Medentry course please? What do or did they in truth say?
ICARUS College offers a $5000 prize to anyone who can supply us with all the contact details [address/phone numbers for all these people below] as well as something in writing from any four of them excludng Dr Susie Boyapati and Dr Raj Thalluri relatives of Medentry [ie Dr Nimi Boyapati, Ed Boyapati, Ann Boyapati, Dr Ray Boyapati] explaining the exact nature of their endorsements on the Medentry website. Please email such information to info(at)icarus.edu.au. The winners details will be kept confidential if they so choose. We shall publish the contact details of all these "public professionals" here so the public can easily contact them to confirm exactly what these professional consultants say about Medentry.
