(Alabaster, Ala., July 15, 2012) ----- Mr. Steven Schurmann, CEO of PowerConcrete Building Technologies, have claimed to be a victim of a major Plaswall franchisee fraud conducted by Mark Taylor, CEO of Sterling Construction and Development Corp. According to Mr. Schurmann, Taylor has scammed him out of $750,000 in total. The money was laundered by Taylor in commissions and franchise fee for a Plaswall franchise, which Mr. Schurmann later found out to be non-patentable in the US.
Lackluster quality of Sterlings product and Mr. Taylors unethical and corrupt business practices forced Mr. Schurmann to resign as Plaswall franchisee in the US. Mr. Schurmann now strives to warn public and investors to be aware of risks involved in doing business with Sterling and other allegedly fake ventures by Mark Taylor. Briefing about his experience in his own words, Mr. Schurmann explains, I dont expect to get my money back. My own business is going strong right now. Yet, I just want to spread awareness to protect consumers and people who wish to invest in this fraudulent Plaswall franchise.
Mr. Schurmann has officially reported Mark Taylor and his "Character Assassination Associate" Richard Waters, AKA "Dr. Thomas Jennings" operating under more than 7 other FAKE ID's on LinkedIn to the FBI for franchise fraud, patent and trademark fraud as well as for cyber harassment. According to him, he has been a victim of threats and harassments from Mr. Taylor and his associates for over one year. According to Mr. Schurmann, the attempts are not just limited to maligning his business reputation using 7 fake LinkedIn IDs and business profiles. In addition to these attempts, Mr. Taylor and Richard Waters have also pulled smear campaigns and personal attacks against Mr. Schurmanns character and his family as well as more than 900 LinkedIn business associates.
When I initially refused to agree to Taylor's suspicious and seemingly corrupt business activities, he threatened to revoke my franchise and "donate" all the commission money I earned to Nigerians. After resigning as the master franchisee in July 2011, I received threatening phone calls. They started to discredit me as a scammer but that was not what they resorted to. They crossed all ethical lines and posted negative content regarding my family, including my four year old son, adds Mr. Schurmann.
Mr. Schurmann insisted that he wants to warn the public at large and also wants them to decide for themselves. He defines his experience with Mr. Taylor and Plaswall as a big blow to his finances, as well as psychologically traumatizing for his whole family and business partners.
Backing his claims and accusations, Mr. Schurmann has created a website where he shares his story as well as concrete evidences against Mr. Taylor, Plaswall and his associates. In this regard, he has created a series of videos to expose the lousy quality of Plaswall products. An authorized document from Mr. Schurmann's Patent attorney asserts that Mark Taylor does not have any Patent protection for his Plaswall design or product in the US.

Mark Taylor, CEO of Sterling Construction and Development Corporation Swindles United States Master Franchisee out of More than $750,000 in Fees and Commissions
Plaswall Concrete Form System Franchise Program Bilks Investor
(Alabaster, Ala., July 15, 2012) ----- After making a heavy investment into what looked like a promising franchise opportunity, Steven Schurmann was recently swindled out of a significant amount of his initial investment and commission fees. Plaswall Concrete Form System Franchisor Mark Taylor, CEO of Sterling Construction and Development Corporation, a company based in Manila, Philippines, promises a legitimate franchise with great potential for its franchisees.
In addition, Sterling Construction and Development claims that the franchise product itself "has created revolutionary solutions for every challenge in whole building construction." Yet, former Master Franchisee for USA Steven Schurmann insists that the claims about its product are unfounded and that the entire operation is a shady enterprise preying on franchisees and customers alike.
When Schurmann first heard about the Plaswall Concrete Form System franchise opportunity, he visited a Plaswall factory in the Philippines and then made the decision to purchase the rights as Master Franchisee for the United States in November 2010 under a $1.5 million contract with a $150,000 down payment. This allowed him to be the sole franchisee to market the panel building products throughout the United States. What at first looked like a hopeful enterprise became a financial disaster for Schurmann. He received the components of his Plaswall Manufacturing Plant in a 40-foot container without any supporting materials and was then left on his own without any training and zero phone support. "When I asked for support and assistance as promised in the contract," says Schurmann, "the CEO simply responded by saying he was not my babysitter and that I needed to take care of my own business."
Schurmann operated his franchise under the name of Plaswall Manufacturing & Development Inc. and spent an additional $200,000 in startup costs. In spite of working hard to recruit a team of agents and then generating over $1.7 million in business transactions for Mark Taylor in a very short amount of time, Schurmann insists that the franchisor failed to provide the promised support to his franchise operations and that Taylor then began threatening to revoke his franchise. Later, Schurmann realized that the franchisor was assisting a Nigerian franchisee to launder money. In addition, Schurmann soon came to believe that the product itself was of inferior quality contrary to the "high standards of quality" claim in the franchise contract. Already beginning to get suspicious, Schurmann further learned that the franchise rights he purchased were for a product that was not patented or trademarked in the United States. Schurmann resigned as Master Franchisee for the USA in July 2011 and never received hundreds of thousands of dollars in contracted commissions still owed by the franchisor.
Though Schurmann has filed complaints with various government agencies, his money has not been returned and the Plaswall Concrete Form System franchise program continues to operate with franchises at a variety of locations all across the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom, India, Mexico, Nigeria, Africa, Australia, Ireland, Dubai, Trinidad, and many other locations. What is most disturbing is the fact that the new Plaswall representative for USA, Richard Waters, is using more than 7 fake IDs on LinkedIn to promote their shady Plaswall business in USA.

PRESS RELEASE
Plaswall Franchise Fraud uncovered
You are about to learn the MONEY LAUNDERING activities of Mark Taylor as "FRANCHISOR" of the Plaswall Building System and his
Character Assassination Techniques AFTER he has been able to rip you off for your hard earned money!

(Alabaster, Ala., July 15, 2012) ----- According to a recent study by the US Department of Justice, fraud has increased more than 30 percent over the past 24 months, but thanks to an Alabama-based company, residents locally and nationwide will now be aware of the alleged Plaswall Franchise Fraud.
Plaswall is a non-patented and non-trademarked third world building system and Mark Taylor, CEO of Sterling Construction & Development Corp. originating from the Philippines is trying to enter USA markets to rip off Americans with selling non-patent protected franchise agreements for Plaswall, said Steven Schurmann, CEO of Powerconcrete Inc., who is an ex-master franchise holder for Plaswall USA and an alleged Plaswall Franchise fraud victim.
Schurmann explained that although he has allegedly been victimized by Mark Taylor, losing a total of $750,000 in franchise fees and commissions, his No. 1 goal is to provide information in the field of consumer protection against Plaswall Franchise Fraud.
The CEOs decision to take his findings public could prove to have perfect timing.
According to Patent Attorney Donald J. Ersler, patent searches, both for pending or issued patent applications filed by Mark Taylor for any Plaswall spacer design, have turned up nothing, even a year after Schurmann resigned from his Plaswall franchise.
A United States patent application must be filed within one year of the publication of a disclosure document or within one year of the first sale of the invention," Ersler said in a written statement. Mark Taylor has been selling the old Plaswall spacer design, at least since the filing of the Philippines patent application in 2009.
Ersler went on to say that Taylor does not have any protection for any spacer design in the United States.
However, Mark Taylor could have an unpublished United States Patent application pending, which was filed within one year of the first sale of his invention, Ersler noted.
According a letter from the US Patent and Trademark office, the referenced Plaswall trademark application is being returned to you because it does not meet the minimum requirements for receiving a filing date for the reason(s) stated below.
This is a clear warning for everyone that Mark Taylor is trying to sell Plaswall Franchises in the USA without any patent rights and without any trademark rights, Schurmann stressed.
The bottom line, Schurmann said, When people see the brand Plaswall, Mark Taylor, his Character Assassination Assistant Mr. Richard Waters from Nashville, TN and Sterling Construction and Development Corp., they should run the other direction.

WOW, this man Stephan Schurmann sounds crazy, you can clearly see where he is writing in the third person about himself, then making up emails with Mark Taylors name on them. A normal sane person can see right through this.
It must be true this Stephan Schurman is a con man who is spiteful and has nothing but PENDING patents, a nother lie he posts..Pending and Approved patents are two different things.
He has no building to prove his so called PENDING patents work, why not... the only thing one can assume is that his product is a total fraud and can do nothing, so all Stephen SChurmann can do is blast horrible things on line about this Richard Waters and Mark Taylor, who both are GOOD MEN!
Stephan Schurman with Powerconcrete has no offices, the one on his website he was evicted from for nonpayment of rent. Mark has several offices and factorys. Richard Waters has two location for his office. Both Richard and Mark has staff, Schurmann has his ego as his staff and his made up people in his mind. One really must worrie about such a person.

Riji,
If Mark Taylor wants to work out an agreement he is old enough to contact me directly.
You, Richard Waters, Ken Brown have nothing to do with this, so stay out.
What is your motive to become suddenly an "arbitrator "?
I am looking forward to a written proposal from Mark Taylor. What could he possibly give me I don't have yet?
I have a better product!
I have 7 patents pending!
I have a better business model!
I have Financing programs for anything!
I have a better brand name and global appeal!
I have high integrity clients and team members!
And I have few more things you will find out soon....
What do I need Mark Taylor for? And why do you even give Richard Waters the time of the
day after all the backstabbing that had transpired?
I considers this lack of loyalty and integrity and have taken you with immediate effect off our

I wish you all a great success!

For all the business professionals out there who are reading this; one has to question this Man STEPHEN SHRUMANN if he's truly got the educational background he so proclaims. To begin with, his incredible lack of professionalism and character Assasination of the inventor of the Plaswall building systems, MARK TAYLOR. Everyone, and I mean anyone on the net can see the success Mark Taylor is having in the Philippines and now India and other parts of the world, by going onto YOUTUBE and seeing the actual building, and development of communities using this new green and eco-friendly building technology. Oh and by the way, how coincidental? Steve Shruman's X-business partner, RIJI left Stephen Schrumann because he saw what kind of Fraud artist, Shyster, Con-artist, Snake-oil salesman this guy really was! You have to remember, both MARK TAYLOR and RIJI caught this man's hands in the Cookie JAR! This man was cheating, lying, and taking people's money by jacking up the prices to unrealistic levels; during the greatest world Recession in the known modern world, and then got mad at his business partners for asking him to return the money to people he defrauded, and to apologize. Instead, this FIEND, this LIAR, went completely out of his way to destroy any persons that would convict him of his malicious, selfish, sins. HOW can anyone, any business persons out there would dare want to do business with a Man who acts in this manner? So, Stephen Shrumann lost all Licensing rites and ligitimacy of any kind and now goes out of his every way and manner to defame RICHARD WATERS and MARK TAYLOR. This horrible individual who is Godless, soulless, and I must admit....quite mentally unstable it would seem. This attitude of "If I can't have this technology, then no one can!" My, my...reminds me of the kids in my elemtary class that took the only football home because they were sore losers when they got tackled. This man completely goes out of his every way to have zero decency, manners, and professional ethics of any kind. The very truth of the matter, and factual information is that this Man is WANTED by Federal Agents for crimes of CONNING; people out of their money, hard earned money, honestly made money, to fraud people and then leave. He's on a NO-fly list because he's wanted! He's the worse of the worst because he's left PEOPLE, good people hurting by having stolen their money, and their small businesses that they were developing came crashing down. That's what this man does, he BURNS and CHURNS chaos in his wake, and good people like MARK TAYLOR and RICHARD WATERS are left picking up the pieces. I have seen this with my own, very own eyes. AND I have met these good Men, working professionals who are not out to cheat people. GROW UP Stevie...you are not even an American; in fact, he's so unAmerican that it sickens me to the bones. As the late Robert Kennedy stated, "Do you not even have any DECENCY?" No, this man Stephan Shurmann does NOT! He's been doing this, these schemes for YEARS now, and he's going to be caught. It's just a matter of WHEN? Do you think you can go this long, insulting people, cheating people, lying to people? No, for KARMA is very real and this man will be caught, and will be brought to justice. In fact, he's running out of Countries to hide in! And have people seen this man's Link'd In site? Talk about Egotistical and Narcissistic! The man is absolutely in love with himself. Can someone please remove his grotesque picture of himself smiling having stolen everyone's money? The SMIRK he has in that picture defines his immense love of himself! His defammation of Character of MARK TAYLOR is beyond disgusting and unamusing! He sports himself as a sportsman who takes great joy in trying to destroy other people who have completely convicted him of his Selfish Sins! I've never encountered such and ignorant and dishonest Man as this STEPHEN SCHRUMANN. In fact, I don't call him a MAN at all! No not a Man, but a disgusting little Napoleon Complex wannabe called a TROLL! The reason why Stephen Shrumann is so angry at the world and at his X-business partners who gave him every chance to succeed is because of his utter Selfishness to only gratify his own existence at the expense of every other human around him. This is in fact the very nature of a sociopath! He's angry because he was born in the wrong era, the wrong time period, the past REICH! His character and integrity; that is the very essence of LACK-OF he wishes that he had been GOOSE STEPPING with the n**i's of old. That is the very truth of it, the true horror, the true heart of the matter. He feels intectually superior to all races and Americans. The sad truth of the matter is that Americans are generous people, warm people, friendly people, and he has exploited our good natures for his own self-glory and manipulations. But again, HE will be caught, and brought to justice. This I have no doubt, it's only a matter of WHEN!

activities of as "FRANCHISOR" of the Plaswall Building System and my
Character Assassination Techniques AFTER I have been able to rip you off for
your hard earned money!
MY FRANCHISEES HISTORY
Mr. Stephan Schurmann made the decision to
purchase a Plaswall Master Franchise for USA from me in October, November of
2010, promoting a permanent concrete formwork under my crapy brand
"PLASWALL".
Unfortunately, Mr. Schurmann discovered that I,
MARK TAYLOR involved myself in "shady money transactions" with
Nigerians and I offered Mr. Schurmann NO support as franchisor. Mr. Schurmann
was threatened by me on every occasion to "revoke" his franchise,
even though Mr. Schurmann brought me more than $1,750,000 in business transactions
to the table!
After months of "power games" with me,
Mr. Schurmann finally discovered that the Plaswall franchise rights he
purchased where NOT patentable in USA and above all I still did not care to
give him any franchise support as Plaswall franchisor. I had Mr. Schurmann's
money already in my hands, so why would I give a crap to support him?
Even though I tried to manipulate Mr. Schurmann,
to obey to my corrupt business rules, to my surprise Mr. Schurmann resigned in
July 2011 as Plaswall master franchisee for USA. That really pissed me off,
bcause I am a CONTROL FREAK, so I decided to destroy his new business
PowerConcrete Inc. and Mr. Schurmann's family.
I quickly registered a new domain
under www.stephanschurmann.com as part of our Character Assassin and
SMEAR CAMPAIGN and we contacted more than 900 business associates of Schurmann
on LinkedIn to kill him and his new company PowerConcrete Inc. for good.
I am a good Christian. Trust me, because my black
buddy Richard Waters operating under 7 FAKE ID's on LinkedIn wrote me
some FAKE references for you all to see...I am good at using people
including all the nasty prostitutes I go to.Why would I love my fat and bitchy
wife.? I am a good Christian man; my hookers can confirm that Trust me,
because I said so!
YOU MUST LOOK AT MY CHARACTER ASSASSINATION WEB
