Digsound Paul Martin Paul Martin is a con man/scam artist Venice, California

Like many fraudulent operations, this one (digsound) probably started with good intentions, but at some point, it became nothing but a scam. Creator, Paul Martin, took investors' money, (.investments in his penny stock, personal checks, cash or wire transfers) and then spent most of the money on his personal lifestyle. He restored and leased cars, hired dozens of prostitutes for himself (I'm probably being conservative on this estimate) and enjoyed a bicoastal lifestyle (apartments in Santa Monica and Manhattan).

Of course he responds to people's criticism on these sites, boasting about his "legitimate" company and brags/aspires for sympathy for all of his terribly hard work, but this is exactly what scam artists do.  Scam artists wouldn't succeed at all if they didn't have a product that "appears" to have potential for success.

It's true what other posters have reported on these websites that are dedicated to revealing scam artists. Despite Mr. Martin's responses and supposed willingness to communicate with his accusers, he is being pursued by many victims of this scam and possibly other shady enterprises. Where there's smoke, there's fire. DO NOT communicate with him. DO NOT "invest" in him.  I hope that more people who have experienced any form of financial or business impropriety with Mr. Martin will come forward and share their experiences on these boards. My hope is that the FBI will finally begin investigating him. He is a criminal and should be charged for his multiple crimes that have been occurring for over a decade.
