Ripped off website tour - Legals pending
 

I've had someone rip off one of my website tours, then spam it wholeheartedly. Now they don't make contact after I've given them the opportunity by phoning and icq'd personally for an explanation.

Should I:

a. Expose them on the boards
b. Seek legal recourse for various
c. Expose them to the authorities for spamming
d. All of the Above

(PS You guys know I've tried to make contact , and yes you are geographically very close to me, so make contact asap as I'd prefer this was settled in a civil fashion)

Y0 dude call them out man... That really sucks bro...

TOM

oh, by the way, the tour was copied like "file -> save" it wasn't just a similar tour :(

say who it is, so

1.) they have a chance to respond
2.) if they don't respond, so people pull their links

tell me their name on icq :)

What If I posted the spam link and then people can work out who it is ? In the meantime I'll phone them for a final time and see if they will respond now . Does that sound fair ?

All of those answers !

wow
 

I dont know you or anything about you, but you get respect from me in how professionally you are handling a fucked situation. My 2 cents would be give em one last shot to respond, at that point you have gone way above being too nice. i dont know how your tone has been in yuor prior contact with them, but i never make threats or get agressive. most people will just ignore you hoping that you are bluffing or just are afraid cause they know there caught. i just state i am being cool about this but i have exhausted my options from your lack of response and state what you intend to do to remedy the situation. i would also try to find out if they have any money before you go legal. its not worth the time and money to win a case an never collect a dime.

personally i would never turn someone in that might be criminal. let karma deal with that. trust me it all comes around.... but thats your call....

yeah I suppose you have a point there. But I'm not like that. If they do something illegal and includes me without my knowledge , well that's it, they have to deal with that shit themselves,... badluck.
I would have loved to let Karma sort it out but it's too late for that one would think.

that is a fair thing - do that

expose them

Yeah, I hope you didn't take that the worng way about the criminal thing. You gave them the opportunity to right a wrong and they chose to ignore you. They have no one to blame but themselves. But, I hope that if you do try the spam thing you post what the response (by the FTC I assume) is. I have yet to see them go after any spam cases that didnt involve some type of fraud or illegal products....

actually now i know which company is i can tell you they need a shot in the head lol

this is the spam.

( will only work for that tour if you havn't visited another tour recently . ie no cookies )

Nah, I'm not going near the FTC or getting them done for spam in their local market. Well not just yet. They need to get their act together. It's totally shabby.

not even close....














wait, let me get my glasses....












ok, i see some similarities :1orglaugh

lol... haha..

Yep, they didn't try too hard to make changes.
I hope it dodn't take their graphics fellow a week :1orglaugh

thats straight up like NO attempt to even edit it... just downloaded and thrown up on his own site lol

Thats bad, the HTML is almost identical.

I would choose

a. Expose them on the boards

BlueWire Studios

sorry man....

thank you :thumbsup

nice :thumbsup

"Was that wrong? Should I have not done that? I tell you I gotta plead ingnorance on this thing because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing was frowned upon, you know, cause I've worked in a lot of offices and I tell you peope do that all the time."

.......George Costanza

nice rip off, go get them!!

Expose the penis lickers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are in the US you are going to have no luck doing anything legal about this.... they are located in BRISBANE, QLD 4622 AU :2 cents:

and the web server is in china

go bitch at there server - proccessors.

no surprise, they are shady ass bastards and i guess since their own celeb tour isn't converting, they gotta steal one that is.
