In NJ, all advertising MUST have [among other things] the EC's license number.

I know for a fact the number is not above 20,000...this guy ...not so much:

Unbelievable.

Remember in Jersey they played around with the license numbering system a few years ago? I thought to myself, maybe the guy is using the old numbering method (without the "34EI" prefix and the other zeroes). But you look up "Joe" or "Joseph" using the online search at Consumer Affairs, and "144784" doesn't match any combination after the "34EI".

That's a hefty fine for advertising that you're licensed when you're really not. I think it's a $10,000 fine and possible jail time.

Check that. I just reread the post. He already admits he's not licensed.
