I contacted Invention Home Invention Home (Jacob Enterprise) - Inventor & company services to develop an idea into a product line. because I just got an idea about making a product to help people quit smoking. They asked me for the cost of patent check fee which is $319.00 US. After that for 2 weeks, I got the report from another organization name which they claim to be US Patent Agent, reported that so far no body think of it, and with some other patents that's relate to but not the same with my idea. However, the report does not have anything stamp from USPTO.

I called Invention Home to consult about writing the patent to file. They would charge me a lot more if I let them do all the work, or lower cost I want to work with them. I want the second one because I got my idea to cover any other product that will be similar. I want to know all the costs that they will charge me so I can prepare, then they guy didn't hear my voice, then it's disconnected. I called back and he answered, as soon as I say something, then disconnected. I called back so many time again but now there's no more automatic reception system, but just the ring on and on, no body answer. the number is 1866-THINK-12 I'm afraid, whether I got the fraud, or they see my idea can make a lot of money, so they just deny me. What should I do? However, I should keep trying to contact them, maybe it's just the phone system problem.
