Guest Klaas de Vries Jr Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 FYI the facts and nature of the many postings that have been spammed on Internet boards in conjunction with a vicious smear campaign conducted by the wealthy hot air salesman & criminal gang leader (c'mon and try to sue me for this, fat **thank**) mr. Louis J. Pearlman and his Talent Rock (former Fasion Rock) CEO Mark Tolner. As main cohorts in this ugly campaign are apparently used a bunch of fanatic nutcases like a.o compulsive fraudist Ayman el Difrawi aka Alec Defrawy, Al & Larry Bagwell of justourkids.com and Steven Miller of Federated Financial. Also, be amazed to watch the Pearlman hate sites www.internethatesites.com and its many clones http://www.billrosenberger.com/ / http://www.ezbc.net/ / http://www.ezbcbusted.com/ / http://www.Ezbcexposed.com/ / http://www.transconblackmale.com/ / http://www.transconblackmail.com/ / http://www.Transconscams.com/ / http://www.Transconlawsuit.com/ / http://www.Transconscamblackmale.com/ / http://www.Transconscamlawsuit.com/ / http://www.Transconscamssued.com/ / http://www.Transconscamsued.com/ / http://www.nycpblies.com/ / http://www.sandraslies.com/ None of the libellous allegations (read: dirty lies & slander) about Henderson are true, imho. On the contrary, mr Henderson is acknowledged as being a man of high moral standards and integrity. His site Crimes of Persuasion is one of the worlds most renown resources on fraud cases. In order to form an own opinion on all this, all one needs to do is take some time to do Internet searches on the names provided above (use quote marks) and see what third parties have to say. You may also find my pages a good starting point. http://www.klaasdevriesjr.nl/k-files/talentrock/ Regards, Klaas de Vries Jr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bob noll Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 Urgent Message From Ed Magedson and Les Henderson www.RipoffReport.com www.badbusinessbureau.com www.crimes-of-persuasion.com www.easybackgroundcheck.com www.modelingscams.com www.smartcardscanada.com www.qc123.com/qc/persuasionl/ Dear Consumers and companies we are extorting: We need your help at this critical time to keep this web site accessible to be able to extort money from companies and consumers. We know that you and a few others are using our web site to monitor our fraud and unprincipled businesses tactics. Over 1 to 2 hundred viewers a day on average. Because of our efforts to provide a forum to post lies about companies and individuals, we have incurred and are incurring unmanageable and substantial legal fees in many states as we continue our extortion racket. We are being sued because of the Reports that have been filed ficticously by us (Ed Magedson and Les Henderson) and our ripoffreport investigators. WE will NOT and do NOT ever plan on revealing those here who add and modify the Reports! PURSUING THOSE WHOM WE CAN VICTIMIZE... our absolute dedication to our scam. You may have read about the many highly publicized government actions against ripoffreport (FBI, FTC, BBB, US Attorney General, local police). We were brought to national attention because we change postings on Rip-off Report.com and now we are paying the price. The government targeted us for legal action. The lawsuits that have been filed have merit and must be addressed and paid for. We wish to stress to you that once we take a position, we realize that we place our scam in jeopardy, but it is as a result of our absolute dedication to the extortion racket. RIPOFFREPORT IS MORE DEVIOUS THAN EVER In these unsettled economic times, unprincipled businesses like ours are more devious than ever in finding ways to defraud you, and the demands on us are greater than ever. Additionally, our web site is now getting more than a hundred to two hundred hits a day, and our hosting costs have increased dramatically. Your money is urgently needed. I hope we can count on you at this pivotal time. We have barely been able to meet our personal expenses and the overhead required for the operation and maintenance of our extortion racket web site, and those costs are growing everyday. I bought a new house and car. The bottom line is that money from the companies we have extorted have not generated enough money to support our scam. Now, the additional legal expenses may severely affect the operation of Rip-off Report.com and our freedom . AS FOUNDERS OF Rip-off Report.com, WE ARE DETERMINED TO KEEP THE SITE, NO SCAM IS TOO SMALL! As a possible victim of our web site, if you appreciate the content provided and would like to see this extortion racket continue, I am asking that you do all you can to help -- today. Please don't say to yourself that others will give, for we will take. Also, no amount is too small, send what you can, please, money, food, clothing, bonds, real estate, please, please, please. We have been urged by our crooked lawyers to charge the people to access Rip-off Report, and we WILL. PLEASE HELP US NOW! Here is what you can do: Remember, YOUR DONATIONS are TAX Deductible Please make the largest donation you can to help with my monthly expenses (gas, car, phone, food, vacations, house, drugs).

Federal income taxes Section 7623 of the Internal Revenue Code authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to pay rewards to those who help detect and/or prosecute tax cheats. If you have any information that Ed Magedson has cheated on his income taxes, send it to the IRS. Their tax fraud hot line is 800-829-0433. If they use it successfully, they may pay you a reward. There is no set reward amount, although you often hear the figure 10%. The basic idea is that the IRS wishes to encourage such information. They will acknowledge receipt of your information and tell you one way or the other if they will be rewarding you for it. Inside information trading This is the crime Martha Stewart made famous. In general, persons who have inside formation about a public company may not buy or sell shares of that stock unless they first register that information, which makes it public. The news stories about Martha Stewart have suggested that she knew Imclone was about to be told publicly that they would be denied approval of an important new drug. Arguably, she and others sold before the news became public to avoid the likely decline in stock price. The head of Imclone has pleaded guilty to insider trading. She got indicted for covering up her behavior in that incident. The stock in her company went down by a half a billion as a result. If you report an apparent illegal inside trade by Ed Magedson to the SEC, you are eligible to collect a bounty of up to 10% of the amount of improper profits he is forced to give back. 17 CFR §§201.61 to 201.68 The Web page for the SEC’s Inside Information Bounty Program is at http://www.sec.gov/divisions/enforce/insider.htm. There is a general complaint center at SEC. Their address and fax number are SEC Complaint Center, 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549 202-942-9634 and their complaint Web page is http://www.sec.gov/complaint.shtml. Racketeering As with many laws, RICO has a misleading name. RICO stands for the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (18 USC 1961-4). The name conjures up images of the Godfather. The law is not confined to mobsters at all. Rather, it simply is triggered whenever a person or organization commits two or more acts of mail fraud (18 USC 1341) or wire fraud (18 USC 1343) in a ten-year period. Mail fraud is “…obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises…” involving the mail in any way. Wire fraud is the same, only it requires the transimission of some sound by wire in interstate commerce. I think that’s the Congress’s way to describe a phone call or fax. Nowadays, it may cover Internet as well. If you listen to a dial-up modem, you can hear a rushing sound of the data being transmitted. Arguably, that, too, would be wire fraud. Do Ed Magedson or his companies commit mail fraud or wire fraud? I do not know. I do know that he owns a telemarketing company and uses telemarketing. I also know that he has a Web site. Sale of books, tapes, or printed newsletters generally require use of the mail. That’s part of the requirement. The other question is are there any misrepresentations? The " Better Business Bureau has given Ed Magedson an unsatisfactory rating" is part of a misrepresentations. Do they rated him unsatisfactory because of not giving refunds? To the extent that he or his firm represented that they would give refunds, not giving them when the customer has complied with the refund terms sounds like another misrepresentation. In general, mail fraud and wire fraud are crimes and crimes are prosecuted only by government prosecutors, namely the U.S. Attorney. But sometimes, the government is concerned that their resources are too limited to deter the crimes in question enough. In those cases, they add a clause to the law that enables civilians to become “prosecutors” of a sort by giving them a legal right to file a civil suit for those same crimes and providing a financial incentive to do so. So-called “civil RICO” is such a law. 18 USC 1964 permits civil (private) suits for RICO violations. It also provides incentive by entitling the winning plaintiff to triple damages. I do not want to encourage suits against Ed Magedson or anyone else without good grounds. Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure says it is illegal to file a suit unless you have investigate both the facts and the law and made sure the suit is warranted by both. So if you plan to sue Ed Magedson under RICO or any other law, make sure you have good grounds. False Claims Act Another federal law that encourages private citizens to sue is the False Claims Act. In this law, if you win, you get a large reward. I see less likelihood that Ed Magedson would come under this, but it’s worth looking into. The main chance would be his use of and his advocacy of the use of federally related contacts or cooperations in his so-called “working with the FBI”. The False Claims Act generally relates to persons getting money from the federal government improperly — or not paying the federal government as much as they were supposed to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Joann Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 This guy is certainly a con man and molester. My daughter was conned by him in an interview through a twitter site which is now taken off I am told...He was at a restaurant in Toronto and my husband and me were in a nearby diner and when my daughter called us.. he was already making advances at her to get her to follow him to his hotel room.... That was when my daughter called me urgently and he was being very rough with her.. and my daughter had to make a dash for it... You must be working in cahoots with this molester....
