Back in 2012, Highland Titles announced they were going to be part of the official Woodland Trust Diamond Jubilee Woods project, until it was exposed that they were not, and in fact the Woodland Trust had refused their application to take part. The project then turned into the plain Highland Titles Diamond Jubilee Wood project to save face.
The plan was announced in May 2012 HERE
For example on their Facebook about page (archived 07 March 2015) HERE
The plan was announced in May 2012 HERE
"Highland Titles will plant 60 acres of Scottish broadleaf trees in the Scottish Highlands this year, .......... They recently announced their flagship conservation effort of planting 60 acres of broadleaf trees to celebrate 60 years of Queen Elizabeth II."Since then, Highland Titles have stated in several places that all 60 acres which were to be planted for that project, had in fact been planted in 2012.
For example on their Facebook about page (archived 07 March 2015) HERE
"During 2012 we have planted 60 acres of broadleaf trees in celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee"
And again on a Youtube account (archived 22 March 2015) HERE
"During 2012, we have planted 60 acres of broadleaf trees in celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee"
And again (archived 22 March 2015) HERE
"During 2012, we have planted 60 acres of broadleaf trees in celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee"
By now I think most reasonable people would have formed an opinion that Highland Titles had actually fully planted all 60 acres with trees in 2012.
That might be a good thing were it not for one inconvenient fact, they haven't actually done it, They may have planted some trees for the project, but only a fraction of the 60 acres.
This blogger, went to look for them in 2013, but failed to find much evidence of them, only seeing a fraction of the 60 acres actually planted.
They even admit it is not fully planted on their own website, possibly they had forgotten where they claimed to have already planted the whole thing, and neglected to remove the above references.
From the Highland Titles website 1 Mar 2015 HERE
"The Diamond Jubilee Wood is a 60 acre project that will eventually contain approximately 30,000 trees"
This isn't a little bit of exaggeration, it is fabrication of conservation work done.
The people behind Highland Titles have made a career out of deception, I think it fair to say they can legitimately be considered professional con artists, and have ammassed a fortune by their various deceptive schemes.
Their Telephone Preference Register website telephonepreference.org.uk worked by deception.
Their European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) website applyehic.org worked by deception.
Highland Titles told the world that they bought the Keil Hill estate so that it could never be developed, but told buyers of large plots that planning permission might be possible in the future, more deception.
Even the construction of a cycle track over Keil Hill was a deception.
Highland Titles was built on the deception that buyers would own a plot of land and by that ownership gain the right to a Laird, Lord, or Lady title. Non of which is actually true, it's a deception.
The list goes on and on and on ........
Unfortunately their conservation work suffers from the same problem, claims of work actually done are not necessarily true, but liable to be more deception. "Have planted" might actually mean "have started to plant", not the same thing at all.
