If any of Anthony Mellone’s companies had ever been profitable/successful – you know we would have heard about it (either by Mellone or “pumpers” on various forums).


FOR 15 YEARS EVERY ANTHONY MELLONE COMPANY HAS FAILED.

Do your honestly think Tri-Star Holdings will be different?



Problem with Anthony Mellone: #2
(Anthony Mellone’s Resume)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone's Resume.

Below is Anthony Mellone’s resume/bio as it appears on his Tri-Star Holdings’ website (http://www.tristarcorporate.com/management.asp )

“Mr. Anthony Mellone Jr, CEO
Mr. Mellone is the founder of Global TV Networks, the "MILLENNIUM ENTERTAINMENT Group, and "Third Coast Teleproductions.". He has been the driving force in the company for the development of a breakthrough design for the worldwide delivery of high-speed Internet services and video on demand.

etc….….

Let us look at Anthony Mellon’s Resume/Bio line by line…

“Mr. Mellone is the founder of Global TV Networks, the "MILLENNIUM ENTERTAINMENT Group, and "Third Coast Teleproductions."
FALSE

Global TV Inc Started in Nevada on 1/23/2002 and ended on 2/1/2005.. Anthony Mellone was the secretary not the CEO or President. Carlos Pichardo was the founder - not Anthony Mellone.

President - CARLOS PICHARDO (CLIFTON, VA)
Treasurer - BONNYE KAUFMAN (GREAT NECK,NY)

MELLONE, ANTONIO SR.President)

Anthony Mellone’s Dad - Anthony Sr. – was the founder of this company – Not Anthony Mellone Jr.

Source: http://www.sunbiz.org/corinam.html (search on THIRD COAST TELEPRODUCTIONS)


“He has been the driving force in the company for the development of a breakthrough design for the worldwide delivery of high-speed Internet services and video on demand.”
FALSE

Tri-Star is not pursuing anything to do with high-speed Internet or video on demand. So … Tri-Star is his own company… so he can pursue what he wants… “Driving Force”… I don’t think so.

Also, Anthony Mellone has been saying for the past 4-5 years that he is doing something in the area of high-speed data transfers – Has never produced anything remotely successful in this area…. i.e – a total failure.


“Over the past few years Mr. Mellone, Jr., has designed and implemented the engineering of the revolutionary RF Video Magic video card that will permit the transmission of DVD quality video entertainment to private residences and business locations.”
FALSE

In January 8 2004, an Anthony Mellone paid press release said….“The patent pending and ownership rights of GLOBAL's RF Video Magic Card (the heart of the technology), were acquired by the company, from its inventor and the founder of GLOBAL Anthony Mellone, Jr., for an undisclosed amount of shares of the company.”

Source: http://www.allbusiness.com/company-activities-management/company-structures-ownership/5562465-1.html

Patent Search for Mellone or “RF Magic” turns up NOTHING.

Source: http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/search-adv.htm and http://www.google.com/advanced_patent_search

What ever happened to the “RF Magic Card? – NOTHING

Google “RF Magic Card” - Nothing but Anthony Mellone’s paid press releases.

Was there ever a “RF Magic Card”? ….. What do you think.


“Mr. Mellone is an accomplished inventor, starting at a very young age by designing and developing the Hydro Ski Disc, the Hydro Skimmer, and his own wet suit line for the water ski industry.”
FALSE

Patent Search for Mellone or Hydro Ski Disc, or Hydro Skimmer turns up NOTHING.

Source: http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/search-adv.htm and http://www.google.com/advanced_patent_search

What ever happened to the Hydro Ski Disc or the Hydro Skimme? – NOTHING

Google “Hydro Ski Disc” or “Hydro Skimmer” - Nothing but Anthony Mellone’s paid Press Releases

Was there ever a “Hydro Ski Disc” or “Hydro Skimmer”? ….. What do you think?

his own wet suit line for the water ski industry”….. Really… wet suit line?.. How many were produced & sold? NADA or pretty close to it is my guess.


“It is his entrepreneurial spirit and feel for deal making that enables him to operate in a multitude of industries and to coordinate human resources to drive shareholder value.”
FALSE

Now this is just plain FUNNY! This guy has never made any business into anything remotely successful. (Can anyone site one of Mellone’s previous businesses that is going strong & generating money? - I don’t think so.)

The “Tri-Star Holdings” company has been around for 8 years (by different names of course) and has never made a dime!

“drive shareholder value” - Begs the question “up or down?”.


“In addition to experience in the entertainment, technology, medical & fitness and metals industries, Mr. Mellone also has more than 20 years of experience in the entertainment industry.”
FALSE

(First of all …this sentence doesn’t even make sense - “In addition to experience in the entertainment, …industries, Mr. Mellone also has…experience in the entertainment industry. “- WHAT? )

Second … Anthony Mellone wrote on 11/25/08 on Tri-Star’s website blog: (http://www.tristarcorporate.com/resource.asp )

Anthony Mellone: “..my stage name in the TV Industry for Acting – Stunts over the last 35 years. “

Wait…. in his resume it was 20 years….now it’s 35 years…..Outstanding!


medical & fitness and metals industries” When/where does it talk about that experience?..... oh it doesn’t…. Because Anthony Mellone doesn’t have any experience in the medical & metals industries.



“He has numerous key contacts in the film industry and has been involved in various film productions including "Scar Face", "Lethal Weapons III", "Dukes of Hazards", Magnum PI, "Terminator 1 & 2" and "The Thornbirds."
FALSE

First of all…
If Anthony Mellone was truly involved in "The Thornbirds” he would at least know how to spell it correctly (“The Thorn Birds").

Again…if Anthony Mellone was truly involved in “The Dukes of Hazards” he would at least know how to spell it correctly (“The Dukes of Hazzard”).

According to “Internet Movie Database” Anthony Mellone was NOT part of the cast & crew for ANY of the films he cited.

(Searched on stunt names/stage names: Anthony Mellone,Antonio F. Mellone, Tony Mellone, Anthony Ferrante , Tony Ferrante, TK Anthony, and all variants)

You won’t find Anthony Mellone (under any a.k.a.) in any of the following films.

Full cast and crew for

Scarface
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086250/fullcredits#cast

Lethal Weapon 3
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104714/fullcredits#cast

The Dukes of Hazzard
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377818/fullcredits#cast

"The Dukes of Hazzard" (TV Series)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078607/fullcredits#cast

"Magnum, P.I." (TV Series)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080240/fullcredits#cast

The Terminator
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088247/fullcredits#cast

Terminator 2: Judgment Day
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103064/fullcredits#cast

"The Thorn Birds"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085101/fullcredits#cast

Maybe Anthony Mellone did some minor work (sweep up, coffee/donut runs, etc. on these movie sets.)….. But really…why put this in your resume/bio?



He has also taught film safety methods for performers, and been involved in production, coordination, and filming.”
TRUE/FALSE – who really cares?

Please… is the best you can write about a 51 year old man?...

(So….If I helped my kid with his math homework – My resume/bio would read:
“Expert tutor in Algebra and Geometry. Volunteered as a tutor for 6 years to help under-privileged children living in the inter-city.”)



“He is an accomplished motion picture and video photographer, with numerous credits.”
FALSE

C’mon… numerous credits…. Here’s your number ZERO. (I can’t find one credit for Anthony Mellone or his AKAs.)

Source: http://www.imdb.com/


So after all this what do we have?

I think it’s fair to say that if Anthony Mellone’s Resume/Bio is full of falsehoods (and maybe some half truths) then…..

Can we trust what Anthony Mellone says? (i.e. “Tri-Star is not a SCAM”)


Hey Anthony Mellone Stop this Charade!




Problem with Anthony Mellone: #3
(Tri-Star Holdings has been around for OVER 8 YEARS)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone's trying to pass Tri-Star Holdings off as a New Company.

Tri-Star Holdings has been around since (at least) April 2000.

Tri-Star Holdings has been around OVER 8 YEARS.

Formerly=Rapid Fitness, Inc. until 8-2008
Formerly=Amore TV, Inc. until 5-07
Formerly=Global Web TV, Inc. (New) until 1-06
Formerly=QOL Holdings, Inc. until 10-05
Formerly=Global Web TV Inc.(Old) until 12-03
Formerly=Liquidics, Inc. until 12-01
Formerly=Future Projects IV, Corp. until 4-00. State of incorporation change Florida to Nevada concurrent with name change
Source http://www.pinksheets.com/pink/quote/quote.jsp?symbol=tshl (under company info)

(Also check here: https://esos.state.nv.us/SOSServices/AnonymousAccess/CorpSearch/corpActions.aspx?lx8nvq=8yvuc4iBOIWYt7mei6no%252fQ%253d%253d&CorpName=TRI+STAR+HOLDINGS+INC )

Tri-Star Holdings in NOT a new company.

Anthony Mellone simply just changes the name of the company …. To suck in new investors.

You can put a new dress on a fat lady…. But you still have a fat lady…


How many times has one of these “Tri-Star Holding” companies been successful/profitable?
NONE

How many times has “Tri-Star Holding” failed to be a successful/profitable company? - ALL
Rapid Fitness – FAILED
Amore TV – FAILED
Global Web TV – FAILED
QOL Holdings – FAILED
Global Web TV (Old) – FAILED
Liquidics – FAILED
Future Projects IV– FAILED
Tri-Star Holdings– ?????

Anthony Mellone changes the name of his company to hide its sordid past.

When will Tri-Star Holding change its name next?

Don’t be taken by another Anthony Mellone SCAM.




Problem with Anthony Mellone: #4
(Anthony Mellone's Lack of Education)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone's lack of education.

A prudent investor would want his CEO to either have experience creating a profitable/successful company or at least have a decent education as a background.

Anthony Mellone has Neither!

For Anthony Mellone’s past experience for creating profitable/successful companies… See Problem with Anthony Mellone: #11

As for Anthony Mellone’s education:

Anthony Mellone spent 8-9 years at the University of Florida (1975 – 1983).
Source: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/6/261/27a

So.. Anthony Mellone.. after 8 or 9 years of college what degree did he receive?
A PhD?... No? …
A Masters?... No?....
A Bachelors?... No?...
Associates?... No?....
Awkward Silence… …

I am not saying, by any means, that you need a college degree to be the CEO of a company…. but it wouldn’t hurt… and it may instill confidence in your investors.

Example:
On 11/25/08 Anthony Mellone wrote this on Tri-Star’s website blog
“…and trying to hurt our shareholders, go f—k yourself

Anthony Mellone doesn’t really sound like CEO material.

Anthony Mellone reminds me of a 17 year old high school kid…. and not a bright one at that.




Problem with Anthony Mellone: #5
(ERHU SCAM)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone and his mobile Emergency Response Hospital Unit (ERHU).

According to Anthony Mellone’s Paid Press Release Nov 2008:

“Mr. Victor Adams of ERHU, Inc. was inspired to develop the revolutionary ERHU …. after designing a similar inflatable mock hospital unit for …"Star Trek." His patented design can be previewed at http://www.erhunit.com/ .”
Source: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_pwwi/is_200811/ai_n30965904

First: I did a patent search for ERHU, mobile Emergency Response Hospital Unit, Victor Adams, Anthony Mellone, and all variants. FOUND NOTHING.
Source: http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/search-adv.htm and http://www.google.com/advanced_patent_search

ERHU is not patented – ANOTHER ANTHONY MELLONE LIE


Second: I checked with all my die-hard “TREKie” fans and not one of them has ever seen this ERHU thing in any Star Trek movie/show. (Have you?)

Maybe a prototype was built to sell to a Star Trek movie…. But they never sold it to the movie studios… and now they’re trying to sell it to YOU!

ERHU WAS NEVER IN ANY STAR TREK PRODUCTION - ANOTHER ANTHONY MELLONE LIE


Third: In 2003 Victor Adams was part of one of Anthony Mellone’s Failed companies “AMORE FASHIONS & SWIMWEAR, INC.”
Source: http://www.sunbiz.org/corioff.html (Enter the search name: Mellone)
(FYI. The company is no longer in existence because “CANCEL FOR NON-PAYMENT” i.e. Bounced Check)

So in 2003 Victor Adams was part of a Fashion & Swimwear Company… and now he’s designing mobile hospitals.


Have you seen the drawing for the ERHU… (pictures at bottom of this post)....it looks like they were taken from some college kids portfolio (who majors in industrial design)

Have you see the pictures of the ERHU…. It looks like a “Moon Bounce” for some kid’s birthday party.























This whole thing is just LAUGHABLE!

How gullible are you?




Problem with Anthony Mellone: #6
($80,000,000,000.00 in Gold – Blatant Lie)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone claiming that they have $80 Billion of Gold and Precious Metals at the Lucky Linda mine.

According to Anthony Mellone – in reference to the Tri-Star’s Lucky Linda Gold mine in Neveda:

“…most recent geological reports and preliminary metals surveys estimate a total possible gold and other precious metals reserve of $80 billion dollars on the site.”

Reference: http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS150713+05-Aug-2008+MW20080805

(It is also posted here in the green text.)










Lets say …

1) it's all gold
2) gold is $900/oz

So..
$80,000,000,000 / $900 = 89 million ounces of gold

According to Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology:

“Through 2006, cumulative gold production in Nevada (beginning with the Comstock lode in 1859) stands at 5,276 metric tons (169.63 million ounces). “

Source: http://www.nbmg.unr.edu/dox/mi/06.pdf (page 6)

So… Since 1859 -Entire State of Neveda: 169 million ounces of gold

Tri-Star’s Lucky Linda’s gold mine: 89 million ounces of gold

Anthony Mellone gold mine contains more than 50% of the gold ever found in the state of Nevada!

This seems so outlandish that…. It’s Blatant, Misleading, Lie... by Anthony Mellone.



Problem with Anthony Mellone: #7
(Gold reserves go from $50,000,000 to $500,000,000 in 4 days! )


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone because his gold reserves from COS 1 & 2 Mines increase from $50,000,000 to $500,000,000 in 4 days! (With no supporting information.)


Anthony Mellone stated:
“Salome Claims COS #1 & #2 are located adjacent to the historic Bunker Hill and Hercules mines and are estimated to contain over $50,000,000.00 in gold ore.”

Source: Anthony Mellone Paid Press Release: October 9, 2008

Just another way to….” PERPETUATE THIS SHARE SELLING SCHEME

“a producing mine …..just after Christmas” (this was implied – not verbatim)

I think it’s understandable to have some delays here and there…..
but….
It sure sounds like someone (Anthony Mellone) is stringing someone (Investors) along.


It’s like a kid who never turns in his homework – but always has an excuse…I don’t have my homework because…..

”I lost it fighting this kid you said you weren't the best teacher in the school"
"I was mugged on the way to school and the mugger took everything I had"
"Our puppy toilet trained on it"
"Some aliens from outer space borrowed it so they could study how the human brain worked"
"I put it in a safe, but lost the combination"
"I loaned it to a friend, but he suddenly moved away"
"Our furnace stopped working and we had to burn it to stop ourselves from freezing"
"I left it in my shirt and my mother put it in the washing machine"
"I didn't do it because I didn't want to add to your already heavy workload”

How long until a prudent grade school teacher says THAT’S IT!

As an investor… How Prudent Are You?






Problem with Anthony Mellone: #9
(Chastain Assay Report – Laughable)



I have a problem with the Assay Report for the Lucky Linda Mine.

The report is shown here and you can also find it here:

http://www.4shared.com/file/71343326/45fa82b6/Assay_Test_Luck_linda_091608.html



The report was done by the company (see header of above)CHASTAIN & Associates Refining from Seminole, Oklahoma. There is no address/phone # on letterhead …. This seems strange?)

CHASTAIN & Associates Refining. Seminole, Oklahoma –DOES IT REALLY EXIST?

I could not find a shred of evidence on CHASTAIN & Associates Refining… NOTHING.


FYI.. The report is signed by a 78 year old treasure hunter/ alien collector named “Dayne Chastain” from Seminole, OK.

“It is an odd skeleton … that Chastain believes may be an alien life form. …..he's carrying it to Roswell, New Mexico, in a plastic bucket full of preserving alcohol.”

Source: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4182/is_/ai_n10117000?tag=untagged


Why didn’t Anthony Mellone use an Assayer from Nevada (where the Lucky Linda Mine is located)?

Why use an Assayer from Seminole, Oklahoma? And why this one?

This makes me feel that Anthony Mellone is not being honest…i.e “A SCAM”.





Problem with Anthony Mellone: #10
(1 /2 mile x 200 feet area contains 1 /2 of Nevada’s Gold - Laughable)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone claiming that their Lucky Linda mine has a gold reserve greater then HALF THE GOLD EVER FOUND IN NEVEADA from a 1 /2 mile by 200 foot area.

Source: Posted above the green text. (also pictured at the bottom of this post… taken from Tri-Star’s website)

Not only is it ludicrous for Anthony Mellone to say he has more HALF THE GOLD EVER FOUND IN NEVEADA in his very in his VERY FIRST GOLD MINE… But to say that all this gold is contained is such a small area (1 /2 mile x 200 feet) is just ….

….Well just seems like a Blatant Lie.





Problem with Anthony Mellone: #11
(Second Assay Report from Tucson – Where is it?)


I have a problem with the Anthony Mellon's Paid Press Release from Oct 30, 2008.

The Paid Press Release said:
Concering the COS #1 & #2 mines…“Samples were extracted and as we speak are being sent to Tucson, where an analyst will determine the quality and the amount of reserves in the property.”

Source: http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/081030/0447914.html


What ever happened to this Assay Report from Tucson?


Did it not show the kind of gold reserves that Anthony Mellone wanted to see?

Anthony Mellone never talks again about this Assay Report from Tucson.


The on Dec 5th (or so) the COS #1 Assay Report comes from Chris Christopherson, Inc….. from Idaho?


This just seems strange …. Like Anthony Mellone is trying to hide something from us.




Problem with Anthony Mellone: #12
(First Assay Report from Tucson – Where is it?)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone's Paid Press Release from Oct 9, 2008.

The report said:
Concering the COS #1 & #2 mines…“Management added that samples have already been collected from both of the properties and are currently being delivered to the assay office in Tucson, Arizona. Management anticipates releasing the assay results and further details next week”

Source: http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/081009/0441706.html

(Note: Anthony Mellone came out with a different Paid Press Release Oct 30, 2008 that said basically the same thing.)

What ever happened to this (Oct 9, 2008 PR) Assay Report from Tucson?

What ever happened to this (Oct 30, 2008 PR) Assay Report from Tucson?


Did it not show the kind of gold reserves that Anthony Mellone wanted to see?

Anthony Mellone never talks again about this Assay Report from Tucson.


The on Dec 5th (or so) the COS #1 Assay Report comes from Chris Christopherson, Inc….. from Idaho?


This just seems strange ….
Two Assay reports from Tucson that were never used?
Why?
Anthony Mellone didn’t like the results so he had them done in Idaho?

It smells like Anthony Mellone is up another one of his SCAMS.






Problem with Anthony Mellone: #13

(No Assay Report for Tri-Star’s only Active Mine - Wickenburg)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone because there is NO ASSAY REPORT FOR TRI-STAR’S ONLY ACTIVE MINE (WICKENBURG)


You always get an Assay Report before staring any type of commercial mining operation.


THERE IS NO ASSAY REPORT FOR THE ACTIVE WICKENBURG MINE
(yet they are mining it & sent in heavy equipment on 12/8/08 for a 200 ton/day operation)


If there was an (encouraging) assay report for Wickenburg – it seems obvious Anthony Mellone would post it.



Some uninformed people may claim that because Wickenburg is a Placer mine – no report is needed. - THEY ARE WRONG.

According Scott Spooner (Tri-Star’s Geologist):

Placer mining refers to the process of mining alluvial deposits for minerals. Tri-Star Chief Geologist Scott Spooner targeted and negotiated the deal and stated that sampling and testing of alluvial materials to determine the quality and quantity of the precious metals reserves in the placer claim”

For placer deposits bulk sampling and bulk testing over a wide area is done to determine the gold reserves. An assay report is done for placer mining.

(Note: This report is specially tailored for a Placer mine in Arizona.)

So Anthony Mellone is willing to ..
- Show the assay report for the Lucky Linda mine
- Show the assay report for the COS #1 mine
- Show pictures on his website of $39.51 of gold,
- Show misleading pictures (on his website & here at ihub) of mining equipment from someone else’s mine
- Send out a plethora of Paid Press Releases
- Show pictures of himself & Mel Gibson (on his website)

But Anthony Mellone won’t show an Assay Report for TSHL’s Only Active Gold Mine……… PLEASE!

This Smells to High Heaven!



(Anthony Mellone will have to get an Assay Report - so this SCAM doesn't smell so bad.)





Problem with Anthony Mellone: #14
(Anthony Mellone's Broken Promise of $20,000/day in Gold)


I have a problem with Anthony Mellone promising $20,000/day in gold revenue and delivering ZERO.

This is what Anthony Mellone said on Nov 25, 2008:
“Azrock Mining should be processing upwards of 35 tons per day beginning this week…. we should be able to maintain processing 35 tons a day, generating at least $20,000.00 a day in gold recovery revenues for the first two to three weeks ($140,000.00 producing seven days a week). “

Everyday ask Mellone …. “Did we get another $20,000 today?”

KEEP ASKING – WHERE IS THE GOLD?

(Eventually Mellone will run out of excuses, press releases, & investors.)
