A notorious couple ( Mark Snider & kristal snider) from based at Naples, FL, originally from Plymouth who sold Christamas Trees and Wreaths from home in their previous business ( Snider's Christmas Trees and Wreaths) are now involved in mass trafficking of illegal military and commercial components by way of networking piracy from China among American companies and providing them escrow service.

Kristal Snider and Mark Snider claims their profit company as ERAI is a privately held global information services organization that monitors, investigates and reports issues that are affecting the global supply chain of electronics. But their intention is to make as much money as possible by networking counterfeit and pirated military components in america, China and rest of globe. There are over 100 to 200 Chinese counterfeters in China are enjoying affiliation of ERAI in terms of certifying their counterfeit merchandise to be exported to America. Read more news in Business week by topic Dangerous fakes.

Recently ERAI network has supplied many counterfeit and pirated military components to various OEMs across the world and have been caught red handed.

Besides Florida brokers attached with ERAI network are well known for smuggling of counterfeit/pirated electronic parts.

There are over 200 independent American ERAI brokers in Florida and other provinces alone who import millions dollar worth of pirated components from china which is possibly meant for American military organisations. Recently many fighter jets, space satellites have been found tainted with those counterfeit chips.

Most illegal importation work in affiliation with ERAI and IDEA who provide them improvisation, marking and labelling technic for pirated components for easy smuggling in apart from escrow services and certification. It is easy to sell 1$ worth fake part for 100$ with ERAI lable along with merchandise. Many Chinese counterfeiters use ERAI affiliation on their website to promote their fake/ pirated/ counterfeit and substandard military parts.

See pictures of few fradulent parts traded over erai.com network by googling "erai scam" or "erai fraud" or by typing "dangerous fakes" . Recently authorities have started cracking these bad elements but yet limited to very few cases where as America is biggest buyer of military counterefeits made in china.

It is a sad story though, a couple Mark Snider and Kristal W.Snider from plymouth, who were basically selling flowers from their Diane's Duxbury home came into this business starting in a dingy room at 19R Main street Plymouth, MI. Later moved to Florida in 2006.This couple is so greedy they left no table unturned whatever gave them money without doing much work. Kristal Snider started with Nurse work, later shifted to over dozen businesses along with her husband,  right from printing fliers, business cards, selling cargo insurances, web designing, and so on. Basically they had no technical background to be in electronic component industry.

Now coming to her venture ERAI, which is basically a membership organisation of brokers across the world, but its main objective was to help  network American brokers and Chinese brokers where chunk of business comes from.  Brokers not having access to many parts in open market often resorted to Chinese made fake/counterfeit and pirated parts including military and aviation grade parts.  This networking helped her bring millions of dollars in membership. She and her husband also carried out multi million escrow processes between Chinese flea market suppliers and American buyers, knowing that 99% parts sold in open chinesemarket are pirated and hence counterfeits. She kept on networking counterfeits to boost her revenue, while to attract more and more international members other than china, she harped on her love for anti-counterfeiting theory. She developed few ways to improvise counterfeits which is been taught to Chinese suppliers so that the components do not get intercepted by layman or even border officials.  Thanks to Kristal snider who has made America a biggest buyer of pirated electronic components. America consumes over 75% of pirated components made in China, which no other industrially developed countries like Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan or India would buy. 

 It is often the greed of fat margin of Americans brokers and their lavish lifestyle , encouraged Chinese to produce more and more counterfeits.  Networking power, improvising visual aspects and escrow services by ERAI helped this trade rocket to its peak level.   No wonder there are big brokers who openly bought and./or sold tonnes of counterfeits:   

Few big names are: 
MVP MICRO, 
TYTRONIX, ( EPIC INTERNAIONAL)
COREL IBERICA
TECHNOLOGY TRADING CALIFORNIA
USBID, 
V&C TECHNOLOGIES INC, 
AMERICAN ELECTRONIC RESOURCE, 
GLOBAL SOLUTIONS ELECTRONICS ( NOLEADTIME.COM), 
KIMTRONICS, 
CARLIN SYSTEMS
VISIONTECH ( SHANNON WREN),
OXYGEN ELECTRONICS, 
BIGAPPLE, FORESIGHT,
 FOUNDATION TECHNOLOGIES 
HYPER IC FLORIDA ( CHIP ROUX - CLOSE ASSOCIATE OF SNIDER FAMILY)
 and many more.   
part from these ,there were nearly 500 known flea market vendors in China, joined ERAI network changed their names after selling counterfeits, came back with different names. ERAI happily entertained them , as long as they got their kickbacks in the form of membership and escrow fees. She conducted many booze parties for brokers to market her membership network.

 Among these many of these companies even used ISO and ANAB certifications besides using networking power of IDEA and ERAI.

No wonder today most American military organizations like NASA, PENTAGON, BAE and other companies including aviation companies are struggling with insurge of pirated components in their equipments.
 
Still if someone wants to trust Kristal Snider, Mark A. snider and her close associate Terry M. lively then it is upto you.    We can judge who are those people working behind the screen to link billion dollar piracy network which operates between China and USA. Many American companies in-turn sell those military counterfeits to other countries with their American lables and American advantages along with ERAI, IDEA tags.  Companies like USBID, V&C Technologies, AERI are still churning millions with the sound support of Kristal snider.

Decide for yourself  who is working behind the show besides greedy brokers. This has become epidemic in last 5 to 6 years. Something which could have been at very minor had ERAI not ventured into this illegal trade to pump out money.   Yes there are major B2B sites like EBAY, THE BROKERFORUM, NETCOMPONENTS, HKINVENTORY.COM who provided platform to market pirated products.

(FYI 90% of ERAI members , associates, affiliates are involved in distribution of pirated/counterfeit commercial and military components)

Request to readers : Call Kristal W.snider, Mark Snider on 239-261-6268 or 239-348-3530 and ask them to stop spreading terror in USA and rest of world

The American military faces a growing threat of potentially fatal equipment failureand even foreign espionagebecause of counterfeit components used in warplanes, ships, and communication networks. Fake microchips flow from rural China to dubious kitchen-table brokers in the U.S. and into complex weapons. There are many ERAI and IDOFEA.ORG networked brokers openly trade counterfeits with no control whatsoever as long as these parts pass visual tests. These brokers import improvised counterfeits with the support and guidance of ERAI.COM & IDOFEA.ORG. Few brokers are Global solutions Electronics,Tytronix, Foundation Technologies, MVP micro, IC ELECT, Hyper IC florida ( aka hyper technology), AERI.com, Oxygen Electronics, Stock-point, USBID, and there are 100s similar who are operating from home or small space in Florida, New York, California, Massachusetts etc, while Florida being hub for major counterfeiting of Electronic components.

MESSAGE FOR TRADERS WHO PROMOTE PIRACY: OXYGEN ELECTRONICS, HYPER IC FLORIDA, USBID, PLANO COMPONENTS, CHIP 1 EXCHANGE, HYPER TECHNOLOGY, STOCK-POINT, KIMTRONICS, TECHNOLOGY TRADING, NOLEADTIME.COM, ERAI, IDOFEA.ORG, OTXI, AERI.COM ************************************* These companies buy 100$ worth part from china for 5 $ and then they complain it is counterfeit and China is giving them substandard products blah..blah... But my dear friends, if you buy Windows Vista or XP for 1 $ what will you get? Or if you pay 1 $ for Chanel perfume, you know what will you get? Now you guys have started China referencing site called ORAFEC as well as ERAI.com, tell me what is the use? The best thing for you guys would be to stop buying fake and counterfeit military components from China and stop cheating your own buyers, pentagon, nasa and other OEM's. Only then you will be known honest or legitimate, else in the run of making fast bucks with Chinese counterfeits you are cheating on your country and your buyers. It is not very ethical and bringing pirated parts from China is illegal. Moreover the parts you bring from China doesn;t come under official import as most of the packages come from there come as sample package or under invoiced package. So it also becomes case of money laundering and illegal foreign trade. No matter if you label FAKE WINDOWS VISTA or fake military chips with ISO-9001 label, or ERAI label or IDEA-1010 private labels, they don;t become genuine or licensed. Try labelling fake Chanel perfume with above American lables, if it becomes genuine. Infact many b2b sites in America now offering escrow and business exclusively for piracy trade eg. netcomponents, brokerforum etc. It is Americans who will stoop very low for survival or for an extra crate of beer in weekend. Don't blame China, but it is your greed which has prompted china to make more and more military fighter jets counterfeits, if you do not buy why will they make. It is because America is buying more than 75% of Chinese counterfeit products than any other country. **********************************************************
