    EXACTLY.

    Getting blogs taken down is relatively easy. It's certainly annoying, but, otherwise harmless.

    Finding a "lawyer" to send an official looking threatening letter is also relatively easy.

    The next step, however, puts the complainant right in the cross hairs of both he/she AND their operation being exposed for what they are.

    Reduce the situation to what "is" and not what "could be"

    This is NOT someone suing McDonalds because their coffee was too hot or suing a retailer because they slipped on a grape or one of the many horror stories which have been misreported and sensationalized in the media.

    This is a third party who "claims to be" a "consultant" to an illegal HYIP ponzi attempting to use the law as a weapon of mass bullying.

    Good pick up, laidback.

    You are indeed correct:

    Patrick weighs in on this ever more tortuous situation:

    Site Critical Of Zeek Goes Missing After HubPages Receives Trademark ‘Infringement’ Complaint Attributed To Rex Venture Group LLC — But North Carolina-Based Rex Not Listed As Trademark Owner; Florida Firm That IS Listed As Owner Says It Has ‘No Knowledge’ Of Complaint

    By PatrickPretty.com 8:13 am Jul 28, 2012

    UPDATED 10:23 A.M. EDT (U.S.A.) Using the pronouns “we,” “our” and “us” — while butchering a legal term and implying he had the authority to act on behalf of Rex Venture Group LLC — a purported Rex Venture “consultant” appears to have caused HubPages.com to disable a Hub written by “K. Chang” that is critical of the Rex-owned Zeek Rewards MLM “program.”


    How long the “K. Chang” Hub will remain offline and whether it even will return are unclear. A Hub is an article on a specific topic. The “K. Chang” Hub questioned whether Zeek was a legal and viable business.
    The rest of the article is at the link above.
    So your prophets of finance have fallen on their collective proverbial face, and you hear muffled voices calling: Welcome to the human race.
    You made a killing dealing real estate at NASA selling cemetery plots in outer space til some falling coffins crashed upon your doorstep: Welcome to the human race.

    Open up your heart...

    It appears Mr. Craddock prefers acting a MLM bigshot instead of a computer big-shot that he was

    I think we have an excellent opportunity to expose Zeek for who they really are, and all you have to do is report Mr. Craddock to them and see how they handle it.

    He has no authority to act on Zeek's behalf, and now he has escalated the intimidation/perceived threats to anyone who posts the info will possibly face a lawsuit. Here's a chance for their crack lawyer to show just how good he is and stops this nonsense.

    Then if Zeek does nothing, it is just more ammo for the fire, so to speak against Zeek. It shows that KSChang was willing to provide Zeek with the solution to the issue, and they refused to take action, thus sanctioning the acts of a "consultant" not an employee.

    Then have a "real" lawyer send Mr. Craddock a letter adivising him what will happen if he doesn't retract his complaint and stops the intimidating/bullying Emails.

    I had some formatting issues to deal with before I can get the article up on our website, plus I need Kasey to approve it before posting. Stay tuned, because this could get really interesting.

    EagleOne, he *may* have the authority, as he supposedly works for the new COO. It's just UNCONFIRMED.

    You may put up the hub whenever you're ready. I've made several small edits but they're rather inconsequential.

    I don't care who he supposedly works for. If he is only a consultant he cannot demand anything be taken down on behalf of Zeek. Only an officer or someone in management has that authority.

    I was a business consultant for twenty years, and not once was I ever given that kind of authority, and wouldn't have accepted it if they had offered. Real companies don't give "consultants" this kind of authority. It opens them to all kinds of litigation, let alone regulatory issues.

    They are blowing smoke. Besides, he didn't report to the new COO, or whomever, when he had the site taken down, and they would have to show him as an executive for him to do so. He wasn't any executive when he took this upon himself. A letter from a good attorney will have him apologizing so fast you would almost get whiplash.

    Mr Craddocks' letter implies Mr Chang has violated Zeek Rewards trademark rights.

    BUT, is Zeek Rewards the actual trademark holder ??


    JustiaTrademarks.com doesn't think so:

    Surely this can't be the same Ebon Research Systems which apparently owns the Zeek Rewards trademark rights:



    http://www.ebonresearchsystems.com/

    What would an outwardly respectable organization such as Ebon be doing associated with such an obvious ponzi fraud as Zeek Rewards ??

    Surely I'm mistaken and someone has hijacked the name.

    It seems the connection between Zeek Rewards and Ebon Research Systems is not as tenuous as it first might appear:

    We have Zeek Rewards Print.com with the phone number 407-682-6733



    When we check that number by courtesy of The YellowBook.com we find that number belongs to none other than:



    Investor ??

    Silent partner ??

    IMHO, Ebon got this ZeekRewards business up and running first for something else, then Zeekler approached them for use of their trademark, and name, with the promise to send business their way with the promotion business.

    However it happened, they're inexorably linked now for eternity.
