Basically it goes like this.

1.The attorney for Plaintiff issues a deposition Subpoena to Epassporte.
Gregory Elias responds by saying "sorry, epassporte is a Curacao co. and doesn't respond to u.s. subpoenas, try a curacao court."

2. The attorney for Plaintiff issues demand for documents to same with same response.

3. The attorney for Plaintiff issues same to Joseph Mccann (mallicks u.s. atty) for 24-7 commerical mktg, Mccann responds that they can't because those belong to epassporte and any documentation that 24-7 CM has is subject to confidentiality ...etc.. you must ask Epassporte.

4. The attorney for Plaintiff issues supoena for Epass employees, Joseph Mccann (mallicks atty) now responds (surprise) that he is the atty for Epass AND 24-7cm, but that Epass has No U.S. employee's and only has ONE EMPLOYEE. Who is Epass' only employee?

Gregory Elias.

A one man company. He must have been so busy.

Based on the documentation, this one had been going on for over a year, and for not much money. The plaintiff just stuck with it because he didn't want to let Mallick rip him off.
Interesting info. Please share links or specific information such as docket or case numbers so that it can be verified.

One thing I will say is that if the US government ever did want to attack this industry it would probably find it very easy. I bet a huge swath could be taken out for fraud related charges alone. I think there are many who operate on the edge of the law and have a false sense of security.
