This company was closed down in 1990 by the Federal Trade Commission and his owner Anthony J Prall Jr moved to the island of ST Maarten after a judgement of $500,000.00 agains him was awarded in a lawsuit, because he has sold the exclusif territory not to one but three different persons. He mentions on his internet site that he is situated in Boston MA. To this day he continue to promess territory and sell Breathalyzer from the Iland of ST Maarten. Beware because you will be sending him money and he will not delivers the products.

I have spend hundreds of hours and $$$$$$ to promotes a company products that i will not get.

American Alcohol Analyzers & Anthony J Prall

AUTHOR: Gwen - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Saturday, December 30, 2006

Anthony J Prall and his company are frauds. They have 19 complaints with the Better Business Bureau. We had bought some machines from him after we wired the money we never heard from him agian. Until I contacted the FBI, BBB, and every other organization that would help us. We finally did receive the product, that was half put together, not what we had ordered, and looked nothing like what they advertise on his site. The machines also never worked. We of course tried to contact him, but never heard anything back. I can only warn people about this company. It seems strange that he will only contact you after you leave a message and you can never contact him directly. He will not accept check or credit cards. I have found out through much research and talking to others that have been scammed from him that he is in the Netherland. All I can say is that he seems like a nice man but he is a fraud and beware. He doesn't sell over 500 machines a week. He has people in the US who help him and I am sure get a cut of what he steals.

I do have what I think is his address - I obviously don't know if he is still living there or not or if he even did live there.
35 Canoe Shell Road, Guana Bay, St. Maarten N.V.
I was told by a St. Maarten citizen that the place is like a fortress and a mansion. I am sure he is getting awfully rich stealing peoples money.

Unfair Compitition sales methods

Mr. Prall;

Since you have not answered any of the last 7 emails I have sent, maybe you can answer my concerns here?

(1) Why did you annotate on your web site "Jeffery Carrano C.E.O." when Mr. Carrano indicates he no longer is associated with AAA and was let go under the assumption he owes you $2500.00+?

(2) Why do you ONLY accept a bank transfer as payment when other Alcohol Analyzer companies accept all forms? Is it also true you are NOT located in the US (Physically) and the bank account is Island of ST Maarten?

(3) Why has the location of your supposed factory changed from 881 Huntington Avenue, Suite 2, Boston, MA 02115 to 1248 Forest Street, Marshfield MA to 23 Shanon Drive Epping New Hampshire ??

(4) Why has no one called me back OR answered my emails in the past 2 months??

This may help clear some things up. Thanks

Unfair Compitition sales methods

AUTHOR: Anthony J. - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, August 02, 2004

Hello from American Alcohol Analyzers. Well we are still the biggest Coin operated breath alcohol analyzer manufacture around today. We shipped last week over 500+ machines to current and new distributors World wide.

It is bad business of our comptition to keep slandering us any way with false reports.

In 17+ years we had 3 or 4 other Companies say bad thing about AAA, but the real deal is with a good
company like the Massacusetts Better business bureau. They have a clean file on AAA.

WE have many Sole Master Execlusive Distributors
World Wide. We must as a good Company protect there teritories.

We get over 200 inquries by telephone and e-mail
per week. Most of them get returned bu AAA staff.

Some are just jokers, not real serious.

Sincerely

Anthony J. Prall Jr.
Owner

Possible Conspiracy?

AUTHOR: John - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, August 01, 2004

I see some negative posts concerning American Alcohol Breathalyzers, and though I do agree some of their actions seem a little suspect (Accepting money transfers only, no one ever answers their phone or retures any emails, the CEO has receitly changed from Anthony Prall to a Jeff Carano, etc. I research and see SEVERAL have claimed to have been ripped off, yet when I go to this site (http://www.aaanalyzers.info/) and click on the Better Business Bureau link posted, it states that AAA has been clean (ZERO Complaints in the last 36 months) as of 01 Aug 2004. "COULD" this be the work of a rival company selling similar breathalyzers? Maybe a coincidence and AAA is really as shady as mentioned? Do your own research folks, and please post ANY dealings with AAA here (Good or bad)
