Abstract:
A process for registration of a good having a unique code capable of identifying that good by providing a point of purchase registration system consisting of: checking the unique code with a manufacture to verify that it is correct; registering the unique code with a national security agency on a database for a charge from an owner; and registering a name and an address of the owner of the good with the existing national security agency and linking this information to the unique code. Both the unique code and owner information resides in the existing national security agency database and is available to law enforcement officers who recover stolen goods. Recovered stolen goods can be identified by comparing the codes on recovered goods to the security code in the database and when a match is found, and then the name and the address of the owner can be matched up.
