More on the ROR saga. I expect Silent will be along shortly to shill for ED in defense.

no, theres really nothing else to say that already hasn't been said. as a remember to johnson and that other schmo these petty lawsuit will be throw out just like the others were. ror is not responsible, those who sue have no leg to stand on.

The Wisconsin Court never told the entire tale. An Arizona Fedral Judge just ruled that threatened extortion and mail fraud by the Rip-Off Report are predicate acts in well pled RICO claims. (Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organizations).

Illinois Federal Court Smacks Down Jurisdictional Objection of Rip-Off Report. his is the same U.S. District Court Judge (Norgle) that has held Ed Magedson and Xcentric Ventures in contempt of court for refusing to delete defamation from www.ripoffreport.com and www.badbusinessbureau.com . Magedson pretends that promoting defamation is the only way he can "retaliate" for being sued. He apparently hopes to advance the fiction that paying him is the only way to cope with harmful defamation on his websites. In fact, Rip-Off Report can be sued, even for third party defamation, where well pled RICO claims are predicated on alleged acts of wire fra ... more >>

What to do if attacked by Ripoff Report,Ultra Dns,Puregig,Prolexic,and maria c. speth!
1. Ripoff report was set up to be a site that is beneficial to consumers, butit is much more than that as you know. it is set up to also extort money from companies. Ripoff Report(ROR) takes annonymous complaints with no regard to the truth,slander or harrasment and post them on the internet. Then ROR puts YOUR COMPANY name in Meta tags and submitts it to search engines. (with out your permission). That is how it gets a high rank on search engines. Now if anyone types in your company's name in a search engine Ed's ROR pops up. Only way to get fixed is to p ... more >>

eVERYONE NEED TO CONTACT GOOGLE AND EXPLAIN THE TRUTH ABOUT ED'S RIPOFF REPORT AND HIS EXTOTION SCHEME. His site was removed about ayear ago due to complaints, but he got it back up there. So if enough of us call and e-mail something will happen. Google is not an unfair company. So they can deindex ed's site. plus ed illegally uses your name in advertising and in his html codes and meta tags. I am sure you didnt give him permission to use your name.

Directnic needs to know the extortion scheme that ed magedson is doing. Alot of people are being hurt by Ed and his scam. Plus do a google search on ed magedson and see for yourself. Ed is not out to protect the little people. How would you like if someone made up lies about you and posted annonymously on ripoff report and then ed made sure that this report(URL) was ranked on the first page on search engines. So if any customer loooked up your name or your company they would see all the annonymous slanderous, malicious, and illegal info. Then the only remedy would be to call ed and pay him thousands of dollars to join his consumer advocacy pr ... more >>

E-mail these people and explain the scam that ed is running.

Thanks ripoff1989! I e-mailed several different addresses with google about this extortion scheme, and will continue to do so. I have wasted thousands of dollars with lawyers who were unable to get ANYTHING done. I think that if everyone continues to e-mail google about this, then they will be forced to investigate. Here is a list of e-mails that I sent my letter to. If you have any other addresses for people at google, please let me know

We have recently been victimized by Rip Off Report. We have confirmed two postings agaisnt our firm are in fact fabricated and most likely submitted by a competitor trying to do harm to our business. This site breeds fraud and allows anyone to post a fabricated complaint agaisnt someone. This needs to be addressed on a local, state and federal level. Since we ourselves are an Investigation firm, we are committing man hours to looking into this site and Ed, who is the reported founder of this web site. Mickey mouse could allege something agaisnt Disneyland and they would post it as fact.

I have used Rip off Report and found it helpful and wish I had known about it before I was cheated once. I don't know about his extortion schemes etc. but I disagree because he DOES have rebuttals that company can put on there. This site- 3 cents can also post complaints about companies so how would it be any different?

ripoff1989 - nice job on this extortion site. Ripoffreport.com is like a communist society deciding what will or will not be posted. What a great scam. Feed off of disgruntled employees, never satisfied consumers and malicious competition to extort money out of companies and individuals. What a gig. I have submitted to the various individuals and places you suggested in hope of some help to control this maniac site.

All people who are attacked by ED's scam(he is in it for the money). Contact his service providers. He may have switched ,but just do a "whois" search on any of his sites. Contact google anyway you can. They remove child porn all the time. The more complaints the faster his whole site gets taken down.
More info: A
The first Site is Ripoffreport.com, which is a site that encourages unhappy customers and employees to post their complaints on the website. In order to post a complaint the victim must post and address, phone number, and valid email address. This is all to make sure the information is legit the company claims.

a Bill signed into law this week it prohibits using a false identity to otherwise annoy, slander, libel or harass anyone on the Internet. Some who are posters on Blogs decry this because they say that that it is a violation of free speech, unfair and it should not be a Federal Crime.
Indeed interesting comments. Yet chances are we have all be slandered and libeled on the Internet by vindictive, nut cases. If we own companies, we have had competitors do this. Most often someone will make up something and make a fake name and try to destroy your brand name, personal integrity out of jealousy, competitiveness or simply spite.

Defamatory postings on the Internet are libel, not slander, under California law and plaintiffs may collect damages for them without demonstrating specific injury, the Sixth District Court of Appeal ruled yesterday.
Justice Eugene M. Premo rejected the contention of two former employees of a Silicon Valley technological equipment manufacturer that the postings were best analogized to radio or television broadcasts, which if defamatory are classified as slander under Civil Code Sec. 46. The section does not mention television, but refers to communications which are “orally uttered, and also communications by radio or any mechanical or oth ... more >>

Re you are your company being attacked(EXTORTED) by Ed Magedson and Ripoff report? If so, here is a way to handle this situation. This got my URL or ripoff report removed. Ed and his service providers will say there is no liability for service providers, but then why did they remove mine with just a few phone calls and a couple letters from my attorney.
Fisrt thing you need to do is to find out who is service providers are. Do a whois search for domain listings. You will be able to see who provides one of his services.
Puregig has his Ip address, but you can check out who provides bandwidth. There are several different options. I did a wh ... more >>

Question: What are the notice and takedown procedures for web sites?
Answer: In order to have an allegedly infringing web site removed from a service provider's network, or to have access to an allegedly infringing website disabled, the copyright owner must provide notice to the service provider with the following information:
The name, address, and electronic signature of the complaining party [512(c)(3)(A)(i)]
The infringing materials and their Internet location [512(c)(3)(A)(ii-iii)], or if the service provider is an "information location tool" such as a search engine, the reference or link to the infringing materials [512(d)(3)]. ... more >>

Ed is at work here in that last posting. I took the post down because I found where Magedson lives and how he is making his money. There are judgment creditors that I have contacted to see if they want to execute against him. Any other people here saying they want to serve him are greatly exagerating because no one responded.
Ed lives at 2033 W McDowel Blvd in Apache Junction. This is Pinal County. Ed is the trustee of Sylvia and Martin Magedson Trust which owns the property. In September he borrowed $417,000.00 from the bank on a refinance. In April he evicted Eric Skelling (Frenchy) from the house. Frenchy is a well known meth user and I ... more >>

I have seen and talk to many people trying to protect their name and reputation and so far they have not had much luck against rip off report. The reason why is the all go down the same path.

Just use the same letter and just explain the truth. One letter to one of service providers got his extortion scam off a google for a wh ... more >>

Hello all
I would like to announce a Victory by the Defamation Action League in getting ED Magedson and the Rippoffreport Shut from their Hosting company.
As part of the agreement I cannot divulge the Name of the hosting company and DDOS protection company that shut him but it was done today February 1, 2007. We are now going after his current hosting company and I am sure soon they will be saying goodbye to ED also. The goal of our actions is to force ED to remove the Defamation of our Members or face the permanent shut down of his website. We are tired of the lack of action by law enforcement and civil remedies. With the power of our ... more >>
