A friend took this issue up and emailed CapeTalk, Advertising Standards Authority of South Africa (ASA) http://www.asasa.org.za/ and SABS and it seems to have (eventually) worked. SolarQuip have removed the logos from their web site.
The previous HTT article was posted on 20 May 2008, so it’s taken over 15 months to get the issue resolved.
Original article: Beware of scammers using false logos eg: SolarQuip http://handytechtips.blogspot.com/2009/05/beware-of-scammers-using-false-logos-eg.html
Here are screen shots of the before and after:
Before (May 2008):
After (Sept 2009):
Thanks to everyone involved! :)
