Yes, I would encourage anyone that has had any dealings with us to post! Seriously, we are a respected organization and a long standing member of this board. With that said, that site is the best case of libel per se I've ever seen. We do not teach consumers to defraud anyone. We provide a service in which we request re-investigations of inaccurate, incomplete or obsolete information present on their credit reports. We also provide a service wherein we add clients to real, revolving accounts just as a family member would do. We charge a fee for doing so and it is legal as per the FTC. We do not add business tradelines. We do not add anything to Duns and Bradstreet but, we do establish files on rare occasions. This entails establishing a Duns number and an eUpdate password. Thereafter, the client populates the file with their own accounts. A credit reporting agency has never purchased anything from us and even assuming arguendo they did, we have approxiametely 50 accounts from which we provide our services. It would be impossible to tell what is what. In addition, a credit reporting agency is going to report what a furnisher tells them. You statement is much akin to the proverbial "needle in a haystack" and assuming they could be identified, blocking that information would be illegal under the FCRA insofar as the accounts are accurate. It short, you have published untrue statements with malicious aforethought. Moreover, your blog is patent copyright infringement insofar as you are using our business name and you've simply lifted portions of our material contained on our website. It is a verbatim cut and paste. You have done this to distract potential clients which constitutes a diversion of our market. That is copyright infringement. With that said, we've already sent in the paperwork to Google Legal SupportCMA Complaints. Since it was only sent over the weekend, you probably haven't received notice as of yet. I would also encourage the admins of this site to follow suit.
I did check out the website, and this looks like a personal vendetta. I'm not sure what your purpose is, but it appears you are open to legal issues. Note that "freedom of speech" does not allow libel or slander.
Just looking at it, there is no indication of who did it, or what their knowledge is. If I had seen that, I would wonder what's up. I see CreditNet and Apex mentioned. And a note that they report deadbeat consumers and stuff like that. I'd write it off as someone with a vendetta against consumers. But, Apex, since you are personally involved, I'm glad you reported it.
