The-Trap.com Receives United States President Excellence Award

    IRVINE, Calif. - The Secretary of Commerce William Daley Tuesday announced that The-Trap.com was selected to receive the coveted US President Excellence Award.

    The-Trap.com, a division of Ampro Electronics, Inc. of Irvine, has created the proverbial better trap -- a unique anti-theft device protecting any vehicle and its contents, requiring absolutely no installation.

    The problem until now was that most people ignored car alarms. Steering wheel locks and tracking devices do not protect the contents inside your car, often the reason for the break-in. According to FBI crime reports, a car is stolen or burglarized every 2 seconds -- the chances of this happening to you is one in three.

    "People want to protect both, their car and its contents," said Founder & Chief Executive Officer Rami Lazarescu, "and they don't want to go to car dealers or installers anymore. We provide a total solution and a better way to get it -- direct over the Internet."

    "This award is in recognition of your company's outstanding performance in expanding U.S trade," said Daley. "You have created demand that had not previously existed. Congratulations on winning this well-deserved award."

    The-Trap.com has created a new, no installation direct to end-user market. The end-user is every fleet owner or consumer, with or without other anti-theft systems, worldwide.

    THE TRAP(R) is the breakthrough device capable of protecting the car and its contents (www.The-Trap.com). As outside help is not coming anymore, THE TRAP(R) works from the inside of the car by generating intolerable sound waves. It makes the stay inside the car impossible to the would-be thief, without inflicting any damage. The concept is simple but effective -- if no one can stay, no one can steal.

    By eliminating the costly installation and middleman, The-Trap.com is operating with healthy profit margins while offering its clients significantly better value and increased convenience.

    The-Trap.com, one of very few profitable dotcom companies, is debt free and with 930 million potential users, is still courting investors and business partners to help with its explosive growth.

    The US President Excellence Award is the nation's highest recognition for demonstrated excellence and superior performance in exports. "This award validates our goal of providing affordable peace of mind to every vehicle owner, worldwide," said Lazarescu.
