Global Internet Solutions Not a WebAward winner

We want to warn the Online community that Global Internet Solutions claims “Global Internet Solutions has won the award from the prestigious Webawards competition”. This is in fact not true. They have never received any awards from the Web Marketing Association.

We have received several complaints regarding Global Internet Solutions and it is apparent from their unethical and illegal use of our logo on their Web site that anyone considering purchasing their services should be warned.

We will continue to pursue legal means to insure only Web sites that have legitimate won a WebAward are able to display the logo on their site.

Follow up note: A day after this posting appeared, our logo along with several others was removed from the site.
