  1. Just a friendly warning to those who care:

    Robin Hubert has ripped off many people using online selling in the past few years. The things she
    sells are not as pictured. DO NOT BUY FROM HER! The only way to get scam artists like Robin off of
    these groups is to ignore her sale posts. If you buy, you will lose your money!

    Robin - If you see this, I want my $257 refunded. I wish it would not have come to this, but I had
    no choice. Quit ignoring my calls and e-mails. I want my money back!!! What you did is not fair and
    you know it!

    Did you pay by MO or cashier's check, which are essentially cash?

    WTF??? Does anybody know what the hell this is about? I have no idea what's going on here but
    someone has either stolen my identity and ripped someone off or a vengefull [censored] has decided to
    assassinate my character. This is completely fabricated [censored]. It's curious how the poster is
    hiding true identity. Curious more is why this person has never called me at work! Even more
    curious is that this person doesn't even know that I'm a male. I have never posted pictures of
    anything, anywhere, that I have sold, ever. Does anyone know what I can do (legally, morally
    right) to stop this? OP, why don't you give me a call so we can talk about this? Why are you
    hiding your identity?

    The real Robin Hubert

    Posting this without details is only making you look bad. Not to mention the fact that you had to
    set up some phony email to do it too. To top it off you neglect to sign your post.

  5. Well, I'd just call that one proof that there's a loon in Robin Hubert's vicinity. No details, just
    sophomoric shouting.

    Troll probability: high.

    Credibility: sub-zero.

    This seems very unconvincing.

    I consider Lickton's to be a major competitor, since we carry a lot of the same stuff, but I've
    never had any reason to think that they are anything less than honest.

    They have, in general an unblemished reputation, as far as I know.

    may have said:

    Why are you hiding your identity?

    Because it's a troll.

    And either the troll is in Utah, or the troll engaged in theft of services via proxy rape of a
    Comcast broadband customer in that state. I would posit that the latter is the case, which is more
    than adequate evidence that this is a random troll action rather than anyone who has ever dealt with
    the person named in any way.

    FWIW, this kind of thing pops up from time to time in scattered newsgroups all over. The most
    successful tactic is to plonk the thread and any others that the troll starts. The less that's said
    (beyond, at the very most, a mere terse comment to the effect that the post is an obvious troll, and
    being plonked), the better.

    Attempting to engage the troll in dialogue will merely encourage further attacks; there's nothing to
    discuss, since in actuality there's nothing to the troll's spew but invention and fabrication, so
    any responses directly to the troll are factually pointless.

    I would not worry too much about it. it's just fluff. doubt too many people will take it seriously.

    they aren't even trying. in summary, tho. they signed up for an email at yahoo.com named it
    "[email hidden]" and armed with that went over to groups.google.com and signed up for an
    account there (you need a valid email address to get an account to post from groups.google.com).

    if you want more info you'll probably have to get a lawyer and subpeona yahoo.com for the
    information used to create "[email hidden]" which is probably fictional anyway.

    at the very least send an email to [email hidden] and tell 'em what
    "[email hidden]" is doing .. they'll hopefully shut down that account. but it'll take only
    a few minutes for the hydra to rehead.

    It's hard to take you seriously when you hid yourself behind an obviously made-up screen name and
    then bash someone who has been a participant in these newsgroups for years. You provide no
    information, so we cannot judge for ourselves whether you have a legitimate complaint of whether
    you're just another trolling Usenet idiot.

    I've never had a complaint about Lickton's or Robin, and I first did business with them in 1978. If
    you want to be taken seriously, then you'd be better off acting like a responsible adult instead of
    a tantrumming teenager.

    I concur. I have dealt with Lickton's a number of times over the years, and have been quite
    satisfied with their fairness and service. Ignore the troll.

    I am the Holy Father, Pope John Paul II, and I purchase from Licktons religiously. In fact, I do
    everything religiously. I have found that Robin Hubert is as scrupulous and honest as my life is
    long. Here's waiving at you, Robin. -- The Pope.

    Can somebody tell me how to stop this guy from pretending to be Pope? There's got to be SOMETHING I

    Dear Sir,

    Your request has been received. Please rest assured that it is extremely important to us. At the
    present time, however, we are terribly unable to help you.

    Thank you for purchasing our products.

    Sincerely,

  15. At least try and correctly spell the name of the legitimate business you're trying to ruin. IF you
    would have spelled Lickton the right way, I would have believed your anonymous rant against a
    reputable businessMAN. (insert all the sarcasm in the world HERE)
