The Florida Scoop Investigates

William And Julie Knote Add To Their Corporations

Our ongoing investigation into what appears to be fraud perpetuated against the American people from William Knote, Julie Knote, Theodore Knote, Howard Zimmerman and assisted by Attorney Jeffrey Berlowitz. A total of  22 victims from around the country have had their money stolen under the guise of buying a product. The bald man to the left is Howard Zimmerman the attorney is Jeffrey Berlowitz.

  

The four individuals form Florida corporations, take deposit money under one company name and claim the company goes out of business to Florida authorities. The Florida Division of Business Regulations told the Florida Attorney General,  United Steel Building, Inc. (USB) was broke and bankrupt. Where did the Florida Division of Business Regulations get their information? It appears from William Knote, Howard Zimmerman and Attorney Jeffrey Berlowitz. When I called United Steel Building today, they answered the phone United Steel Building. How can they be out of business if they are answering the phone?

Now Jeffrey Berlowitz is calling people offering to give them back their money in monthly installments, interest free. He claims it shows William Knote and Howard Zimmerman are “good guys”.  What Jeffrey Berlowitz isn’t looking at, his friends committed crimes. Even William Knote admitted, on video, what he did was wrong and Julie Knote set up shell companies. Jeffrey Berlowitz and his friends came to Florida from New York. Is it a wonder Jeff thinks these people are “good guys”? After all they all came from the same place and who knows how many people in New York were taken advantage of from similar tactics?

William Knote has started two new Florida corporations which you can read about here. These two new corporations are in real estate. That makes (7) steel companies William Knote has started or is a principle of, (1) broadcasting company, (1) towing company and now (2) real estate companies, all within eight years. Is Willie in business to sell products or take money?

These individuals set up websites through copy and pasting  their other company information, give the website a new company name, solicit business over the Internet, take your money for “deposits” in the name of one company.  When they can not perform on their agreement (like a ponzi scheme) they say they are going out of business so people leave them alone. They open the same day under another company they hold and continue business as usual. Their victims?

From: Mike Lassner
Date: Tue, Jan 5, 2010 at 12:14 PM
Subject: your posting on United Steel Building

Doing some research on the competition I came across your site. I am thankful that this information is finally getting out. I would however appreciate you dissociating my name with them, in particular the ‘brain child’ it was clear early on how these guys wanted to do business and within 2 weeks of the start of the company I left them to pursue my own interests. Clearly this brain child was there own and I would appreciate either the removal of my name or the clarification of the facts. Thank you.

Verichip now Poitive ID and Linked with IBM

Verichip is now called PositiveID! Verichip/PositiveID is a provider of RFID systems for health care. It appears microchipping is experimented on Alzheimer patients without their knowledge.  Verichip stock plummeted after reports circulated the rice size implants were causing cancer. The FDA reports a series of potential problems with implanting Verichip/PositiveID in humans see here.  Now Verichip/PositiveID has started a new public relations program with a new public relations team.



The company taking over Verichips/PositiveID media relations and corporate communications is Gibraltar. A company who has close ties with the Clinton administration, expertise in biotech, energy and of course as a company who has excellent inroads into government, Gibraltar even has the mandatory Washington office!

When Verichip/PositiveID started the seed money came from giant IBM. Looking at connections we found a great article by Greg Nikolettos. Read his complete article here. We have taken a few snipets of the article and posted below.
“$60 million is chickenfeed to a company who turns over 100 billion US dollars a year. Yes sir, the IBM Hollerith Machine Punch Card system was very profitable in WWII, cleverly “leased” to the Nazi regime to create enabling technologies to identify and catalog non-compliant peoples.

IBM custom-designed and constantly updated the Hollerith Machine using the punch-card system and thus Hitler was able to automate his persecution of the undesirables. Hitlers remedy? Zyklon B, the brand name of the cyanide-based pesticide used in the Holocaust gas chambers !

The Zyklon B patents were owned by a little company called IG Farben who was also in bed with John D. Rockefeller’s United States based Standard Oil Co. during the reign of the Third Reich.

Agfa, BASF, and Bayer continue today after the buyout of IG Faben Western Assets, showing that you can’t keep a good criminal company down. But let’s remember, we all need to be more forgiving as BASF manufactured excellent magnetic recording cassette tapes in the 80s-90s as acid house music merged and fused into techno.

Verichip/PositiveID is manufactured by Raytheon Microelectronics España/ECLAN from Tomahawk Missile fame thus creating a synergy between the fifth largest defense government contractor and the human implantable microchip.

VeriChip Corporation acquires Steel Vault Corporation to Form PositiveID Corporation thus creating a synergy between identity theft and the human implantable microchip⁷

VeriChip Corporation acquires credit monitoring company, NationalCreditReport.com, thus creating a synergy between credit monitoring and the human implantable microchip⁸

Verichip includes the VeriPay System which is designed to be used as a swipe and go payment method for cash and credit-card transactions as seen at the Baja nightclub, thus creating a synergy between “scan and go” electronic payments and the human implantable microchip.19

Verichip can be linked to Google Health and Microsoft HealthVault, thus creating a synergy between the Electronic Health Records Government stampede and the human implantable microchip.

Verichip/PositiveID/RECEPTORS LLC manufactures Virus Triage Detection System for the H1N1 Virus thus creating a synergy between the WHO hyped flu pandemic and the human implantable microchip.

Verichip/PositiveID announced it would expand its HealthID division with a range of products, including an implantable RFID microchip in phase 2 development which can detect glucose levels in the body, thus creating a synergy between HealthCare , Diabetic Patients and the human implantable microchip

Verichip/PositiveID announced it is working closely with HealthScreenDirect, a company that offers screening for diabetes and high cholesterol . We soon predict a cholesterol sensor announcement via the Verichip Receptors alliance thus creating a synergy between the 106 million Americans who suffer from high cholesterol and the human implantable microchip.⁴

Verichip/PositiveID formed VeriGreen Energy Corporation, to invest in the clean and alternative energy sector.Following the recently signed stimulus package, which invested $79 billion in renewable energy. Verichip/PositiveID created a synergy between their new marketing company Gibraltar , the stimulus bill , cap and trade, the global warming agenda and the human implantable microchip.⁵

But relax…after all these acquisitions, name changes and synergies created, Scott Silverman CEO of Verichip/PositiveID states to the market with a straight face:

“Using the chip to relate to the credit-reporting services of NationalCreditReport.com, or even using it for financial transactions” has not been a part of our business model for five years or more, since Sullivan’s been gone, and is not part of our business model moving forward.”

Scott Silverman continued “I can tell you that” putting [the chips] into children and immigrants for identification purposes, or putting them into people, especially unwillingly, for financial transactions, has [not] been and never will be the intent of this company as long I’m the chairman and CEO,”

Reuters reported in May 2009, “Verichip had been granted an exclusive license to two patents, which will help it to develop implantable virus detection systems in humans. ” See the article here.

It appears IBM invested $ 60 million to help Verichip/PositiveID and IBM, it appears, played a roll in WWII helping to identify the enemies of the Third Reich. One might want to question buying any IBM products, wouldn’t they?

Riddle – What Do 8 Steel Building Companies Have in Common?

The riddle – What do eight steel building companies have in common? The answer – the same corporate owners.The next question has to be, Why start up eight steel building corporations? What if you order a steel building from one company and another company calls you about your order, how do you respond? What if you write a check for your steel building to one corporation and when your check comes back, you notice it was endorsed by another corporation you never did business with? What if you ordered your steel building and gave a $7,000. deposit to find your local building department would not accept the building plans due to engineering requirements set by local building codes?

These questions are just scratching the surface to what people have been dealing with while innocently ordering, what they thought, a building approved steel building. You think large bonuses for AIG executives is shameful? What about four individuals William Knote, Howard Zimmerman, Julie Knote and Theodore Knote designing a web of steel building companies, taking orders and deposit money from unsuspecting individuals and stating the company you ordered your building from is out of business?  Then what would you say if you discovered these four individuals were open for business under another of their corporate names? What if these four individuals had an attorney who claimed these were good people – what would you think of that attorney?

It appears that William Knote, Howard Zimmerman, Julie Knote and Theodore Knote are just those people. Apparently they have taken thousands of dollars from “customers” and never delivered the steel building ordered. The attorney? It appears the attorney does think these are nice people.

United Steel Buildings, Inc. Engaged in Consumer Fraud?

The Scoop started investigating United Steel Buildings, Inc. based in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida December 2009.  Based on our investigation, we found United Steel Buildings, Inc. appears to be part of a clever web of deceit.
Contact The Florida Scoop at: thefloridascoop@gmail.com or click here
Although many names may be affiliated with United Steel Buildings, Inc. we believe most of the names, including Radlick are sales personnel. The key players in this alleged steel building business are five individuals. Of the five key players, three appear to be the masterminds and possibly guilty of consumer fraud. We will notify the authorities and post our follow-up information here. Our investigation is detailed here.

Clearly there is a pattern of steel building corporations popping up all over south Florida and it appears the same key players are involved with 15 similar corporations doing business with steel buildings. Why would corporate principles need 15 corporations for a steel business?

What is Christmas?

What is Christmas?
Christmas is a time for celebration.  A time we celebrate as the birth of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. There are many references to Jesus Christ being born on another day, but the world celebrates December 25th as a time to formally acknowledge that yes, in the city of Bethlehem, a Saviour was born.

Why would the world need a Saviour?  What does the world need to be saved from?  Clearly, God is holy and mankind is unholy. God Almighty, the Creator of all, sent his only begotten son, Jesus Christ to this world to save us from our unholy nature. We need to repent of our sin and ask the Lord Jesus Christ to forgive us and save us. Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.

Global Government Started

Global government or as some say, the New World Order, has started according to European Union President of the European Council, Herman van Rompuy,

The position to which you have  elected me is a new one. I shall take office on the first of January, 2010.  The Lisbon treaty wanted to instill greater continuity and coherence in the
work of the European Council of heads of state and government.

Six-monthly presidencies for the advantage of involving all 27 member states in the work of the Union. The disadvantage was a lack of perspective. It’s my firm intention to insure that our work develops over a long term period. A perspective that goes
beyond six months would allow us to be better organized where the major
multi-annual dossiers are concerned such as the financial perspectives of
the Lisbon strategy.


I also think that going back to our roots in the European Council could help us to discuss from time to time  in an informal and open way the big questions of the European project.

I’m thinking more specifically of the economic and social agenda, and this is a particularly urgent matter, because of the environmental and energy challenges we face and the aspirations we have for greater security and justice for all our fellow citizens.


We’re living through exceptionally difficult times. The financial crisis and
its dramatic impact on employment and budgets, the climate crisis which
threatens our very survival.

A period of anxiety, uncertainty and lack of confidence. Yet these problems
can be overcome by a joint effort in and between our countries.

2009 is also the first year of global governance with the establishment
of the G-20 in the middle of the financial crisis. The climate conference in
Copenhagen is another step towards the global management of our planet.

Our mission, our presidency, is one of hope, supported by acts and by deeds.”

Herman Van Rompuy
President of the European Council
November 19, 2009, Brussels

America’s Manufactured Crises

America’s manufactured crises is just that – manufactured. Does this mean real people are not hurting? No. Have real people lost their homes, their jobs, their savings? Yes. So what was manufactured? And why was it manufactured?

One thing separates conspiracies from truth – connecting dots of truth. When truth is discovered it is usually attacked as a conspiracy because method one of destroying truth is attack the information as flawed. If that doesn’t work then method two is attack the whistle-blower. You see evidence of this in corporations where whistle-blowers are called “disgruntled ex-employees.” If that doesn’t work, method three, physically attack the whistle-blower. You see examples of this with sudden deaths of individuals exposing information.  A good example may be Vince Foster and his untimely alleged ’suicide’.

An effort to discover truth one must connect dots and/or follow the money trail. The American Congress and many State governments have an insatiable appetite to spend money that isn’t theirs and money we do not have. Why? We know we can’t continue to spend money we don’t have so why does Congress at the federal and state level? And how do we connect the dots to people involved in this never-ending spending spree?

I intend to write a series of reports on America’s Manufactured Crises connecting dots and following money trails and I hope you will subscribe to my feed and feel free to copy my reports. I only ask you link to my blog and credit me with the articles and research.

Let me start with giving you an assignment:

What do Cloward, Piven,  Alinsky, ACORN, Soros, Ayres and Obama all have in common? My next article will cover the connection.

South Carolina’s New Governor Hopeful

South Carolina may have a true Conservative as a Governor hopeful – Larry Grooms. Senator Larry Grooms is running for Governor for South Carolina and what makes him interesting? In the absence of the Senate Chaplin back in 1999, Senator Grooms lead the South Carolina Senate in prayer – and what a prayer it was. It was the last day of a special session and it goes like this:

The last day of the specially called Legislative Session of 1999 ended under unusual circumstances. In the absence of the Senate Chaplain on July 1, 1999 at 1:21 AM, the Lieutenant Governor offered to Senator Larry Grooms the very rare opportunity to lead the Senate in a prayer. Each legislative day begins with a prayer and the pledge of allegiance. Having less than one minute to prepare, he pulled from his desk a copy of a prayer once spoken before the Kansas Senate. As it turned out, this would be come the last prayer to be offered before the SC Senate during the 20th century. The following are the words he spoke and prayed.
“Senators, hear the words spoken by Minister Joe Wright before the Kansas State Legislature.
Let us pray.

‘Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek Your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, ‘Woe on those who call evil good,’ but that’s exactly what we have done.

We confess that:

—-we have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it pluralism;

—-we have worshiped other gods and called it multiculturalism;

—-we have endorsed perversion and called it an alternative lifestyle;

—-we have exploited the poor and called it the lottery;

—-we have neglected the needy and called it self-preservation;

—-we have rewarded laziness and called it welfare;

—-we have killed our unborn children and called it a choice;

—-we have shot the abortionist and called it justifiable;

—-we have neglected the discipline our children and called it building self-esteem;

—-we have abused power and called it political savvy;

—-we have coveted our neighbor’s possessions and called it ambition;

—-we have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression;

—-we have ridiculed time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.
Search us, O God, and know our hearts today; Cleanse us from every sin and set us free. Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent here and direct us to the center of your will. I ask it in the name of Your Son, the living Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.’

Upon the conclusion of the prayer, a recess of the Senate was requested. While in recess, stunned members divided into groups to discuss what should be done regarding the prayer. During this time, several members demanded an apology. Senator Grooms refused. An ordained minister also serving as a Senator, verbally assaulted Grooms for “embarrassing the Senate”. Several members requested Senator Grooms make a motion that the prayer not be recorded int he Senate Journal. He refused. A senior member of the Senate approached Grooms and reported to him that the prayer would never appear in the Journal of the South Carolina Senate, the official record of the Senate.

Although opening prayers are normally printed as part of the Senate record, this one was not. The official journal entry for July 1, 1999, the last session of the century, states only the “the proceedings were opened with a devotion by Senator Grooms.” ———————
We say, Thank you, Senator; hope can get you elected as the new governor to lead South Carolina back to core values and to make a stand for truth and righteousness in this great nation.
