Hey all, Just giving support to my local charity: Global Cancer Research Institute http://gcri.blogspot.com/ Adam i have a very large problem with this - adambond3@gmail.com appeared on google this month, never been seen before, posting off of 70.68.178.84 - shaw canada touting a one page blog site, having ZERO factual information as to who/what/where - with a paypal click thru to 'donate' to ??????? there isn't any ifno to show who actaully gets any such donations... blog posted by 'executive director' - profile page is blank this poster has also written similar single posts about 'National Water Conservatory', and 'The World Food Fund' both lead to other single blog pages, also with a donation link, also from the very same 'excutive director' also with ZERO factual information about this n.w.c. or t.w.f.f. three purported charities, three paypal donations appeals, no actual information... makes my nose twitch, it does... since poster is coming in from a canadian source, anyone up there have any knowledge about the purported charity org's he's touting? i didn't spot any citations with a very cursory look around > Hey all, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Adam > i have a very large problem with this - > [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > any knowledge about the purported charity org's he's touting? i didn't > spot any citations with a very cursory look around I wouldn't even bother digging to determine legitimacy, since so many red flags pop up for a legitimate charity: (I am a Canadian, though :) ) 1) Using a gmail account - no no in business and a no no in charitable work 2) Using a blogspot account - same as above - a no no 3) One-off pages for multiple charities - ah-OO-ga, ah-OO-ga! 4) No factual information, other than heart-string pulling 5) Same poster shilling for multiple charities - Scam alert! Flood all torpedo bays! Fire at will! Take no prisoners! (I *really* despise people trying to make money off others' misery)  SignatureMarc Bissonnette Looking for a new ISP? http://www.canadianisp.com Largest ISP comparison site across Canada. know anyone at paypal? > > i have a very large problem with this - > > [quoted text clipped - 44 lines] > Looking for a new ISP? http://www.canadianisp.com > Largest ISP comparison site across Canada. > know anyone at paypal? Can't say that I do, but I do know that they *do* seem to act on fraudulent sites. A recent 'net ko0k extraordinaire recently not only had his site nuked (from a Malaysian host - that was no small accomplishment, either), but also his PayPal account revoked for the fact that he was making money by libelling others online. >> > i have a very large problem with this - >> > [quoted text clipped - 40 lines] >> >> (I *really* despise people trying to make money off others' misery) SignatureMarc Bissonnette Looking for a new ISP? http://www.canadianisp.com Largest ISP comparison site across Canada. hmmmmm - sounds like you're telling me scov. and fss got nuked? - it's always fun when that happens. > > know anyone at paypal? > [quoted text clipped - 53 lines] > Looking for a new ISP? http://www.canadianisp.com > Largest ISP comparison site across Canada. > hmmmmm - sounds like you're telling me scov. and fss got nuked? - > it's always fun when that happens. I *knew* you'd catch on to that reference :) Yep, it was unroutable for a couple of months: Now I see that a default Apache/Cpanel page is showing, so I'm assuming his provider nuked his content, though it's interesting that the domain seems to be routing again... >> > know anyone at paypal? >> [quoted text clipped - 51 lines] >> >> (I *really* despise people trying to make money off others' >> >> misery) SignatureMarc Bissonnette Looking for a new ISP? http://www.canadianisp.com Largest ISP comparison site across Canada. > i have a very large problem with this - > [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > any knowledge about the purported charity org's he's touting? i didn't > spot any citations with a very cursory look around Firechief might know something about him/it Stop smoking is reporting to blogspot; however, he has 2 or 3 other ones. Saved as much info as I could. J |
