    Robert, your account has been placed on hold because of an infraction of your signed personal Oath & Code of Ethics. Please email legal.affairs@ipiu.org to request the procedure for possible reinstatement.

    The items you pasted from a mail order company which sells courses were not from any government web sites or legitimate organizations. The "sources" proclaimed are fraudulent renditions aimed at assassinating the characters of the victim names you portrayed by promoting such. If you look carefully at the other companies the mail order company talks about, they also slander anyone or any other school or organization whose mission is to help students, especially their competition. What does that tell you of the mail order school owner's character?

    EXAMPLE: Who heads IPIU? Go to our Contact page at http://www.ipiu.org/contact.php and read for yourself, which includes our government licensing information.

    Why do we have a strict Oath and Code of Ethics? Because we do not want any fraternal union member or private investigator assassinating the good character and reputation of anyone, any organization, or any company out of ignorance, stupidity, or deliberate wrong doing.

    Such an act is a clear violation of a fraternal union member's personal Oath and Code of Ethics Agreement because private investigators do NOT use personal opinions as a means to imitating facts, especially when their testimony can be judged as false.

    Further,

    We have over 50,000 fraternal union members worldwide, many of which are active and retired federal, state, and local law enforcement officers who also perform private investigations.

    The International Private Investigators Union is comprised of BOTH regulated and licensed private investigators & owners as well as unregulated (non-licensed) private investigators and owners. The latter group is typically banned from some other "associations and groups" because they are not licensed or choose not to be licensed or are not required to be licensed. For that point alone, it was why two licensed private investigators in 1989 started the International Private Investigators Union because they wanted their unlicensed investigators to join the same association they belonged to and were banned from doing so! So do not be fooled into thinking that all private investigators and other associations support the Mission Statement of IPIU. Some do not, and some have some very strong disagreements with our Mission Statement. It is a choice a fraternal union MUST make before they post their Oath & Code of Ethics.

    Since IPIU was founded as a non-profit union association in 1989 (seventeen years ago), there has never been a single record of any complaint against IPIU or its officers or its board of directors by any federal, state or local government authority or attorney general.

    The only item in over seventeen years of serving tens of thousands of private investigators were eight (8) courtesy refunds through the BBB in all that time, which were all resolved. Of the remaining faithful 50,000+ members, they have posted their IPIU actual experiences on our public website using their real first and last names, and real locations at the following public link:

    There are, however, additional options for undercover operatives, law enforcement, or government employees who can choose to request a user name change after we verify their true credentials.

    Don Merritt, our 1995-2005 union president is also a speech writer for President Bush. IPIU is certainly not without its fair share of critics, but some have been seen as politically motivated because of what Mr. Merritt does for President Bush, even though his work for the White House has no conflict-of-interest with the affairs of the International Private Investigators Union, which is not a political union.

    If after reading the above links and factual items you find any internet links to legitimate law enforcement or government sites that raise concerns, please email them to legal.affairs@ipiu.org so that they can see what the issue is, or to determine if it is just a fictional opinion.
