Craigspimp and Eddie Temple are being sued by Craigslist

I'll told you that you had something coming for you Eddie you fucking scumbag, it just took a little longer than expected :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

ouch....

"Mr. Goldman also said Craigslist was arguing that breaking its terms of service was a crime — the same argument that a federal judge rejected in a well-publicized case involving MySpace and a teenager’s suicide. "

good luck with that part of it.

They're pretty fucked on the rest I think.

CL does this with the intention of it never seeing its day in court. They want the defendants to settle. They did this with Mesiab Labs (Easy Ad Poster). Cheaper to settle than fight it. Eddie's sight says he is a UK company so I doubt he has much to worry about. Breaking a sites TOS, in itself, is not a crime.

Silly Craigslist...

No way CL will ever win this one and i doubt that is why they are doing this.
It looks more like they are trying to discurage other individuals from spamming.....scaring off the smaller players.

Easy Ads Poster closed down instead of try and fight Craigslist. At the very least scumbag Eddie will have to do the same. But he is not in the uk, he and his company are physically located in vancouver canada. I have been working with Craigslist to shut his scamming ass down and they have his actual physical address, not the bullshit maildrop he used. He also quantified how much he was making on this forum, which Craigslist has that info. I have inside info on this one and cragslist won't settle for nothing, they want Eddie's ass and will get it.

Craigslist won't win the bullshit argument that violating their tos is a crime but they will win this case against Eddie, trust me I have a little inside info on what else they are going to do. Some of the dating sites that eddie promoted on craigspimp might also be in some deep shit. There are fraud issues here and don't think that angle isn't being pursued.

I can't say I'm surprised, when you build an affiliate program based on spamming a site, you're inviting litigation.

All you fake ass wannabe lawyers can speculate all you want but this lawsuit is the real deal. Eddie's broke ass can't afford the legal fees to begin with, but he thinks he is safe because Eddie Temple is a fake name and he thinks no one knows where he is. Well his affiliate manager Bill is in Lancaster Ohio and he is about to get fucked in this suit himself. Couldn't happen to a couple of bigger scumbags.

wow... why are you so bitter? whats the story behind this?

I agree, I always wondered why he was able to be so openly blatant about it and get away with it for so long. Even building an affiliate program using their name, then stiffing the majority of your affiliates by not paying them.

I'm too lazy to post all Eddie's threads in here, but the guy is a complete ass. I don't know what role DS250 had in helping Craiglist, but I've never wanted to see some guy go down as much as Eddie.

The article is interesting..

I have a very good friend that worked for eddie temple before craigspimp existed. He hired her off craigslist to do a lot of data mining work, finding geo information in every city that criagslist has a section for. She would research bars and coffee shops in each area and street information, and she did a lot of data entry work. She didn't know it but it was intended to make the fake responses seem more realistic with real info from that city. She was 8 months pregnant and very broke, and Eddie stiffed her for a few thousand dollars of work. I promised her i would make his sorry ass pay. I encouraged people on here and other places to email [email protected], my contact, to complain and several hundred did. I hope they sue his sorry fake ass for every penny he has.

I know where you can get some more in depth information on this,
If you're an established person here, and I know who and what you are, PM me..
You're welcome.

eddie makes more than the ceo's yahoo, ebay and apple combined so legal fees shouldn't be an issue.

lol. that craigspimp program was a fucking waste. signed up out of interest and laughed quickly. CL should pummel his ass away in legal fees. that eddietemple blog is funny though. new WP blog full of BS

" Hey folks, I?m Eddie Temple ?


As the title says, I make a lot more cash than you do. In fact, I make more money in a year than the CEOs of Apple, eBay, and Yahoo! combined ?

In fact, I make SO MUCH MONEY that I just bought a new $16,000,000 mega-yacht ?

But look, that doesn?t mean I?m any better than YOU. The only difference between me and you is that I fly in a private jet.

And I get to fuck a lot of hot women (like any girl I want) ? and I drive a Bugatti ? and, well, you get the picture. "


You could have replaced Eddie Temple with Sleazy Dream and that would have fit perfect, at least the way he was talking a couple years ago, not now of course.

well that is lame.. if you are going to run a scam, at least pay the people that help you make money...

i also heard that he screwed a lot of people over...

i guess its time for him to pay the piper...

Yep, didn't fully pay Zuzana for a design and stiffed most of the people from this forum who tried his affiliate program.

Well, finally!
