Text Ad Exchange Sale and hosting

cookeville, Tennessee

On 7/15th My partner and I purchased a Text Ad Exchange Business, that was fully equipped and operational from Mr. Gene Baker, from his website, http://8814hosting.com. We contacted Mr. Baker to discuss the purchase of this website, at that time he informed us, that the cost of the website was $45.00 for the website. We expressed our interest, the following day, and contacted him to find out, how he would except payment, because there was no Alertpay icon on the website, and that is how we intended to pay, he in turn told us he does except Alertpay and gave me his Alertpay address to forward the payment too, which was bizman59@gmail.com. Once he received the payment, he forward the backoffice information and mentioned, that he was also, able to host the website, if that is what we chose to do. My intentions were to ONLY purchase the website from Mr. Baker and obtain hosting, with another provider. Before making the decision to do so, my partner talked with Mr Baker, on the phone, the conversation was a bit upsetting, as Mr. Baker, felt the need to have access to the password to the back office, and the control panel. My partner explained to Mr. Baker at that time, that she did not think, I would be in agreement with him having access to our backoffice, and told him she would get back in touch or I would to discuss what was mentioned. I emailed Mr. Baker not long after talkiing to my partner, and telling her, I was not agreeing to that, because we were going to be the owners, and private information is added into these sites, and felt there was no need for Mr. Baker to have access any longer. He also, felt, he had a right, to put his advertising all over the site, as he pleased, and that was something, I felt was totally wrong, being that it no longer belonged to him. When we got the website turned over to us it in turn was up and fully operational and equipped. My partner and I were in the backoffice changing things around, and in turn doing the things we needed to do, to get ready to run a business. Throughout the time, we were in there, Mr. Baker felt the need to go in the back office without our permission, so we in turn changed the password. I asked him to no longer go into the site, without informing us he had intentions of doing so, and then felt, after mentioning he wanted control and also,. telling my partner, that if we didn't give him access, he could in turn go into the control panel and get it, without our consent, I knew we had a problem , and I told my partner, we were not going to use him for hosting, and seek hosting for the site elsewhere. This is all one day of just buying the site. I contacted Mr. Baker explaining, that were going to be using another person to host the website we just purchased from him and from that moment on, he started doing manipulative things, that were causing errors, and it was one issue after another. He was telling us, he didn't know what was going on, and he would need to contact his webmaster or someone that was helping him and he would get back to us. Well things were continously, getting worse as the day went on, and the last straw was when he shut the hosting down completely on the site./ When my partner approached him about it, he said I gave you a day, to get your hosting changed over and accused us of expecting FREE hosting, and said we were trying to rip him off. My partner was so upset over this, and said we just purchased the site today from you, how are we suppose to get everything changed over in a day, and we are new to TextAd Exchange ownership we would at least need two days, to get things going. He was just so abrupt and over and over stating we were trying to get free hosting, and just crazy stuff that made NO sense at all. Why or how could we ever think we would get anything for nothing, nor why would he even be accusing us of this, when we just got done paying him for a new business. How he came up with us trying to scam him or rip him off was horrible and a VERY BAD way to conduct business, knowing all along he was the one doing the scamming. We finally got him to forward the files over so we could forward them to the new hosting, and when we got the hosting guy to upload them, we in turn found the website to be completely EMPTY! He wiped out everything that was there, and the site was and still is just a background, header and footer, and all the information banners and work we did, while we had it, was and is GONE! He in turn wiped our business right out, and is now, stating that he gave us all that we need to get it back up! It has been a complete nightmare. We purchased a business NOT a script with just images. That is NOT what we paid for and is not what we want , so we are in turn asking for a Refund to our account immediately! We had contacted Mr. Baker several times to try and resolve this issue, and all he wants to do, is keep accusing us, and turning around the scamming he did to us, on my partner and myself! Here is what the website looks like now, http://www.dragonslairtextads.net
The files were so corrupted before he sent us the complete file, that NOW no one is able to even signup to the site. But yet he is insisting, he forwarded the original file the way the site was when we purchased it. Scamming is NOT the word! This is the link, http://8814hosting.com where we bought the site from and if you click on any of the one's he has for sale, you will SEE, they are ALL up and running businesses, and that is EXACTLY what Dragon's Lair was before he did all this damage. It's been an absolute nightmare for both myself and my partner and all over a $45.00 website, that was once suppose to be a complete business. It's not about the money so much, it was he did to us, and all because we did not go with hosting through him and felt he did not need to control the sitr any longer once we purchased it! SO BEWARE, DO NOT Buy a Site or hosting from this guy Mr. Gene Baker, I can PROMISE YOU, YOU WILL in fact, have serious issues!

This is gene Baker and Yes, I'm the owner of 8814 Hosting. First of all to all that really wants to know the truth to all this. These people are big scammers and they tried to say that they did not receive the site that they purchased. That's funny!!1 go here and you will see the site I sold them: http://www.dragonslairtextads.net I built that site Graphics and all images. I can prove it because I have them in my files and if anyone want me to send them a copy of them to prove that all you have to do is email me and I'll be glad to prove what I'm saying. Mike Kontak and Maria Angelozzi are being reported to the FTC and any other Law agency that I can find. Remember folks, There are 2 sides to every story!! This page makes them sound innocent but, in reality the emails that I received are full of curse words and very vulgar. Don't believe everything you here!!!
Who Scammed You Commenter
Gene, NO MATTER what you try to do, to turn things around, we were the innocent one's here, we came to you, and PAID you for a business, and got SCAMMED BIGTIME, so you can try to make people believe that you are the innocent one here, and ALL ALONG, YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMING PEOPLE AND CORRUPTING FIILES AND THERE ACCOUNTS, AFTER THEY PAY YOU, MANY TIMES BEFORE. SO DON'T WASTE YOUR BREATHE, YOU ARE THE GUILTY ONE, WE ARE THE ONE'S THAT LOST MONEY, A BUSINESS EVERYTHING. PEOPLE WHATEVER YOU DO, AND NO MATTER WHAT HE SAYS, BELIEVE ME, HE WILL RIP YOU OFF, AND CORRUPT FILES AND EVERYTHING ON YOU. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH HIM! HE IS DEFINETELY A SCAMMER!!!
Like I said! there are 2 sides to every story and I have the proof that proves that what you are saying is not the truth. We will see what the truth is soon!! You are SCAMMERS!! and soon the whole world will know it. If the files was empty what is http://www.dragonslairtextads.net ?? YOU WILL BE EXPOSED!!!!!
You should have read the Terms Of Service and I gave about 36 hours to get the site moved and all you wanted was to keep hosting off my for free. Now, Folks if you agree with someone getting free hosting then go ahead and believe them.!!
Who Scammed You Commenter
HI EVERYONE, GO TO THIS LINK, http://www.dragonslairtextads.net AND YOU WILL SEE EXACTLY, WHAT I AM SAYING http://www.dragonslairtextads.net HE CORRUPTED THE FILES SO BADLY, THAT NO ONE IS ABLE TO EVEN SIGNUP TO THE SITE! THAT IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF WHAT HE DID! Also, you are seeing an empty site, with just an iumage , when we purchased it, it was fully operational and equipped, click the link, and look at it now. It is just an empty script! Would you believe that someone with this mentality, and evilness to do such a thing to someone who ACTUALLY paid him for an up and running business wants EVERYONE to believe he is the innocent one here! Gene, I feel VERY SORRY FOR YOU!!! Don't wast your breathe becasue WE know, who is the REAL SCAMMER HERE!!!

Emails from Mike Kontak

Hi Gene,

Mike Kontak here. I was talking to Maria, and she mentioned to me that you
wanted to have access to the site and recommended we give you our
password. I don't believe that is something as owners we would have to, or NEED to do unless there were
concerns that needed to be attended to.

We purchased the site from you which in turn means you are no longer the owner. The question I have, is why you would

feel you
would need the password to our site? There is private information that goes in these sites, and as owners
of many of them I am sure you know this... I mentioned to Maria, this is NOT something that I would want
to do, and if that is the case, I think we need to resolve the purchase of Dragon's Lair.

I also mentioned to Maria that I have a hosting guy that I am looking to host with for Dragon's Lair
so we would not be purchasing hosting through you. I known this guy a long time, and I mentioned to him prior to
purchasing Dragon's Lair that I would most likely be going through him for hosting. If you feel this is
a problem us hosting elsewhere and taking complete control of Dragon's Lair, I am going to have to suggest
as I mentioned earlier that we resolve our recent business transaction and ask to be refunded.
I hope you understand this is just in the best interest of Myself & Maria

Sincerely,
Mike Kontak

Mike, I explained it to Maria why and that is no problem. I was just trying to help out just in case there was a problem. I'm

not that type of person that would steel any info from anybody. I have several customers that are new to Ad Exchanges and

try to help them with good customer support. I did not know that you have experience with Ad Exchanges. I see that you

have everything under control. I meant no offence to you or Maria. I have no problem where you want to host the site. You

do not have to host it with me. That's not the way I operate. Yes, You own the rights to the site and you are the owner. Again,

I'm sorry about the confusion and also I will stay out of the site by your request.

FREE HOSTING? HOW IN TH E WORLD WOULD WE HAVE EXPECTED FREE HOSTING, WHEN WE JUST BOUGHT THE SITE FROM YOU, AND LEGALLY IT HAS TO BE AN OPERATIONAL WEBSITE, AND WHEN YOU SELL IT, YOU HAVE TO AT LEAST GIVE THE BUYER 24HRS TO EITHER HAVE IT, TURNED OVER TO A NEW SERVER OR SET THE HOSTING UP WITH YOU, IF YOU OFFERED IT. SOON AS WE TOLD YOU, WE WERE GOING WITH ANOTHER HOSTING COMPANY, THAT IS WHEN YOU STARTED DOING ALL HE DAMAGE AND YOU SHUT US DOWN IN HOURS AND THEN TOLD EVERYONE WE WANTED FREE HOSTING, WHAT A JOKE, YOU REALLY ARE QUITE SAD, AND NEED TO COME UP WITH A BETTER LINE THAN THAT! YOU DID NOT EVEN GIVE US A DAY, TO GET ANYTHING DONE, OR TURNED OVER, AND SHUT US DOWN WITH NO NOTICE, AND THEN CORRUPT ALL THE FILES, AND THEN LEAVE IT IN THE STATE WHERE NO ONE CAN EVEN SIGNUP OR JOIN, AND ALL YOU HAVE TO GO ON, IS TELLING PEOPLE WE TRIED TO GET FREE HOSTING, SO SAD, YOU REALLY NEED HELP GENE. YOU JUST NEED TO LEARN, YOU CAN'T SCAM PEOPLE , AND MANIPULATE THEM, AND THINK, YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH IT. IT IS JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. SO ONCE AGAIN, CLICK THIS LINK, AND TRY AND SIGNUP AN ACCOUNT, AND TELL ME, IF YOU WERE ABLE TO GET IN, http://www.dragonslairtextads.net ALSO, MAKE SURE, YOU NOTICE THE EMPTY WEBSITE, WHEN YOU GET THERE, THAT USE TO BE A FULLY EQUIPPED BUSINESS, UNTIL HE DELETED EVERYTHING IN THERE, BEFORE FORWARDING THE FILES TO US! TALK ABOUT EVIL?? GENE BAKER IS JUST THAT!!
Who Scammed You Commenter
YOU CAN PUT ALL THE EMAILS YOU WANT OUT THERE, THIS WAS ALL TRANSPIRED BEFORE YOU DID WHAT YOU DID TO US. WE WERE VERY GOOD TO YOU, AND COULD NOT HAVE BEEN ANY KINDER, AND YOU DID EVERYTHING YOU DID AFTER THE FACT, SO GENE THANK YOU, FOR POSTING THAT, IT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO SEE,YOU BASICALLY WERE ASKING FOR PERSONAL INFORMATION, THAT YOU HAD NO NEED TO HAVE, AND THAT YOU WERE IN FACT TRYING TO CONTROL US, BUT EVERYONE AS YOU SEE, WE WERE VERY RESPECTABLE TO HIM, AND HE STILL DID ALL THAT DAMAGE TO US AND SCAMMED US AND RIPPED US OFF BLIND. NOW HOW NASTY IS THAT??????
KEEP TRYING!!!!! Not going to work! I've said my peace and that's all I wanted to do. The rest is up to the law.
Who Scammed You Commenter
YES INDEED AND THE LAW, IS CERTAINLY GOING TO DO JUSTICE TO SCAMMERS LIKE YOURSELF!
You should have read the Terms Of Service. That's what you failed to do. So now you want to make up lies and try to rune me because you did not read the TOS. LOL!!!! TOS is a legal contract and is there to protect any business. Again, Folks I did nothing wrong!!!
Who Scammed You Commenter
THE TERMS OF SERVICE DOES NOT STATE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CORRUPT FILES AND DAMAGE THEM BEFORE FORWARDING THEM TO A BUYER. ONLY PEOPLE WITH COMMON SENSE WOULD KNOW THIS! INNOCENT MY ASS, YOU ARE FAR FROM INNOCENT, TRUST ME ON THIS ONE!! PEOPLE JUST REMEMBER THIS DO NOT PURhCASE ANYTHING FROM THIS MAN, BECAUSE YOU WILL BE RIGHT HERE, DOING THE SAME THING, RIGHT NOW THAT I'M DOING, AND WOULD YOU BELIEVE ALL BECAUSE ANOTHER EVIL PERSON IN THE WORLD, DECIDED TO DAMAGE A BUSINESS THAT WAS FULLY OPERATIONAL, ALL BECAUSE WE TOLD HIM WE WERE GOING WITH ANOTHER HOSTING,! NOW HOW EVIL CAN YOU GET TO DESTROY A BUSINESS THAT SOMEONE PAID FOR??? JUST GO HERE http://dragonslairtextads.net AND YOU'LL SEE FOR YOURSELF IT IS AN EMPTY SCRIPT, WITH JUST A FANTASY DESIGN, AND TRY LOGGING UP AND YOU WILL SEE JUST HOW EVIL HE IS THAT HE DESTROYED THE FILES, SO NO ONE CAN SIGNUP! JUST REMEMBER NOW, THAT WAS A FULLY EQUIPPED BUSINESS WHEN WE PURCHASED IT, LOOK AT IT NOW, NO BANNERS, NO ONETIME OFFERS, NO MEMBERS, NO WELCOME INFORMATION NOTHING! NOW HOW EVIL IS THAT?????
What you people need to do is file a dispute with the payment processor. DON"T let this person get away with this. He needs to be SHUT DOWN and now. YOU WILL get your money back if you can prove this. It sounds as though this man makes a LIVING out of doing this to people. I have heard of him through the ad exchange world, and he doesn't know his ASS from a hole in the ground. He's dumb and wet behind the ears and this is not the business he should be in if he works like this!! There are other fine ad exchange rental and sales businesses out there, don't let this one SERIOUSLY MESSED UP PERSON ruin you. It does sound like he needs to have total control over everything. The DISTURBED PERSON needs to get out the business as he CLEARLY does not know to damn much about what he is doing and then acting like he has it all under control!!!
This is the owner of Laurel Hosting,
I have been doing all of 8814 Hosting script work since he started his business a year ago. I do not get any pay, or acknowledgement. When Gene sells a site it is left to me to move the site. This is not my business and I was only doing this as a gesture of good faith. I have tried numerous times to explain to Mr.Baker how to move a site, which is a very simple procedure. Just last month in June a site move waited over 1 week until Gene finally got ahold of me to do the move.

I just received another email from Mr. Baker today begging me to help him move a clients site, yet again I get no reconition for any work I do for him, and he tells his clients all work is done by him and he has all under control!

I was not home last weekend when he sold that site to Maria and Mike and messed up the zip and never zipped up their database to send them, then just deleted their database. He knows better as I have told him I don't know how many times to do this simple procedure. If I was home last weekend and their site got moved by me, these people would not have any problems with the script or their site!

I was hospitalized back in March and again in May, as I had to have a heart cath, and then pacemaker surgery. I got Gene to look after my business and billing. He changed the invoice information to his, meaning when an invoice was sent, it had his email and hosting page link inside the invoices I sent, *~he was trying to steal my clients~*!!. Right there I lost my faith in Gene as a friend , and all trust I had for him. He took advantage of my ill health and hospitalization. Then we have been watching him on our server and have found out that he went into one of my cpanels. He got caught, but denies any wrong doing, yet we have the proof from the server. I could have brought legal charges against him.
Who Scammed You Commenter
Hi, I am sorry I am not addressing you by your name, as I did not see one left, in your previous message. I first want to say how VERY sorry, I am to hear of ALL he did to you. This man is certainly evil, and the stress that he put us under was unbelievable to say the least. I am NOT one to put something out there, or even indulge in a bunch of nonsense, as I have been marketing online for over 7yrs. I am a previous Traffic Exchange owner ,and I certainly am aware of people that you can come across, that can do a potential amount of harm to you. I have to admit, I think Gene has them ALL beat by far. I think, the thing, that really confused me, is why, he would try and turn around what he did on Mike and I and state we were the scammers, when ALL along we are the one's that purchased a website from him, what in the world could he be thinking about? Then to say, we were trying to get FREE hosting, when in turn it was NOT even 24hrs since we bougth the site from him, and then shut us down without any warning, and then corrupted the file, and sent us an empty script, and INSISTING he sent us exactly what we purchased from him. I'm not sure, if you went to the link, that I provided above for Dragon's Lair yet, but please take the time to do so, and you will see, EXACTLY what we are trying to dispute here. That was an up and running businesses and now, it is an empty script with all the things that were in there originally, are now GONE! He really is a VERY evil person, and went even further and corrupted it, so when someone tries to signup they are not able to do so... You better believe my intentions are to fight him EVERY step of the way, and I will indeed, do what I have too, to prove that Gene's best interest, is NOT in his customer's but indeed ONLY for himself! This has all been NOT ONLY stressful, but a BIG waste of time, and energy! I have put a claim into Alertpay, to get refunded for his so called business he sold us, and waiting patiently to move forward when need be! Once again, I am VERY sorry, you had to endure this person who calls himself a caring human being, and Thank you so much once again, for coming forward. Maria Angelozzi
I guess all it takes is to call someone out. Tell the truth about someone and they change their whole terms of services. Will you ever learn to STOP copying MY BUSINESS word for word?? Will YOU ever learn? Why do insist on trying to ruin people Gene? Let's tell the truth shall we Gene? I built your main sales/website for you, I uploaded it. You are using my program that notifies you of a sale. I DID IT all NOT YOU! Now since you were in my cpanel without my permission and we have proof, I believe Monday, we need to turn your hacker ass into the FTC, the Tennesee State Attorney Generals Office and take it from there. I have had it with people that try and ruin something I worked hard for. Sit back on you A double S and watch and wait! I find out that you are spreading rumors about me and my business, I will see you in court so fast your head will spin boy. Remember, who has the money to sue you....Oh yes new terms revised today. I have copies of the old and the new and I have notifed ESB Host of your copyright infrigement of the written TOS
Revised on 07/23/2011
One registered copy of the Sites/Scripts will be sent to the purchaser upon receipt of funds from paypal or other arrangements. Purchasers will receive 30 days free hosting. At the end of the 30 days if Hosting is not purchased at the time the Sites/Scripts file will be zipped and sent to the purchaser at that time and the Sites/Scripts may be deleted from the 8814 Hosting server after 24 hours. You should have received this Sites/Scripts only from 8814 Hosting within 24 hours after the 30 days is completed unless Hosting was purchased. Once the Sites/Scripts have been zipped and sent 8814 Hosting will not be responsible for Sites/Scripts once mailed. Purchaser had 30 days with the Sites/Scripts. Purchaser will have 24 Hours from that point to seek Hosting before Sites/Scripts is Deleted from 8814 Hosting servers. 8814 Hosting has this right to avoid "Internet Shoplifter's" ( SCAMMERS!!!). If purchaser files a Dispute during this time the Sites/Scripts will be suspended by 8814 Hosting and placed on hold until Dispute has been resolved!.
Who Scammed You Commenter
OH MY , THIS IS INCREDIBLE.IN THE REVISED COPY OF TERMS OF SERVICE, IT SAYS,WILL GET 30 DAYS FREE HOSTING?? HE DIDN'T EVEN GIVE US 24HRS HOSTING, AND SHUT US DOWN! THEN IS TELLING EVERYONE, HIS SO CALLED FRIENDS SO HE SAYS, THAT WE WERE TRYING TO GET FREE HOSTING. OH MY HE IS REALLY WORSE THEN I THOUGHT! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT ACTUALLY SAYS, 30DAYS FREE HOSTING, AND WE WERE SHUT DOWN IN 24HRS. TRUST ME ON THIS ONE, I WILL MOVE MOUNTAINS TO GET THIS PERSON EXPOSED, AND SHUT DOWN INDEFINTELY!I i AM BLOWN AWAY, THAT HE GOT AWAY, WITH DOING WHAT HE HAS BEEN DOING THIS LONG! IF YOU NEED ME TO BACK YOU UP, WITH WHAT HE HAS DONE TO YOU, PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO LET ME KNOW, I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY, AS I STATED I WON'T STOP UNTIL HE GETS WHAT HE DESERVES, FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE TO US ALL!!! YOU MENTIONED, THAT HE WENT INTO YOUR CPANEL WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION, WELL THIS IS WHERE EVERYTHING STARTED FROM. HE ACTUALLY, TOLD ME AND MY PARTNER HE WANTED THE PASSWORD ONCE WE CHANGED IT, AND SAID HE WANTED TO HAVE ACCESS TO DO THINGS IN THERE, AND FELT HE HAD A RIGHT, TO KEEP HIS ADVERTISING ON THE SITE, AND EVERYTHING, WHEN I MENTIONED IT TO MY PARTNER, HE IN TURN TOLD ME, THERE WAS NO NEED FOR HIM TO HAVE THE PASSWORD AS WE WERE BUYING THE SITE, NOT RENTING IT, AND OUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WOULD BE IN THERE. AS SOON AS WE TOLD GENE, HE SAID, WELL YOU KNOW, IF YOU REFUSE TO GIVE ME ACCESS I CAN ALWAYS GO INTO THE CPANEL AND GET IT! THAT RIGHT THERE, PUT UP A RED FLAG AND MY PARNTER AND I BOTH AGREED WE DID NOT WANT HIM HOSTING OR HAVE ANY PARTS OF THIS SITE, ONCE THE TRANSACTION WAS COMPLETE. ONCE I TOLD HIM WE WOULD BE HOSTING WITH SOMEONE ELSE, THAT IS WHEN THE CORRUPTION GAME BEGAN! THEN WITH IN A FEW HOURS WE WERE SHUT DOWN! WHEN WE FINALLY GOT ANOTHER HOSTING TO BRING IT UP AND EMPTY SCRIPT IS ALL WE SAW! LIKE I SAID HE IS INCREDIBLY EVIL, AND WILL CERTAINLY GET WHAT HE HAS COMING TO HIM! HERE IS THE LINK, TO WHAT HE CALLS A BUSINESS, WHILE YOUR AT IT, TRY LOGGING UP AS A NEW MEMBER. YOU WILL CERTAINLY SEE WHAT WE ARE DEALING WITH HERE! ~~> http://dragonslairtextads.net/
I have tried your site and you are correct as it states an error when trying to sign up. If I sent you your site, you would of had your correct database. I tried to explain to him numerous times how to export a database and zip it and send it along with the files in a nice neat zip.

Then yesterday after I made a server move and all was settled I ask Gene to change the IP's for my super solo sites within his cpanel, a real easy task as he has done this before, and he then proceeded to tell me he would do it after I show him how to move a site. Today he kept bugging me to show him how to move a site when I explained to him OMG I don't know how many times how to do this! I have been doing his work for him and running his business when I have my own to run Laurel Hosting.com

Last month he sold a site and it did not get moved until I moved it, his poor client waited a week until I moved it and his client still swears by him, still sticks beside him like God!

What gets me is Gene knew there was problems with the surf script, it needed looked at, tweaked, and the kinks ironed out so to speak, nothing is perfect. I cannot believe he sold a site knowing the script needed a few things worked on. That is why your script does not work. that and because you bought a surf script and got a database that goes to the plain SJV script. He will bug me, literally beg me to fix things, upload scripts! I trusted him to watch my business while I was sick in the hospital and this man tried to steal my clients! He got caught red handed and denies it!! if someone else got into my billing system, why input Gene's infomation in there, now that does not make a whole hell of a lot of sense! He jumped on me wanting to know why I was acusing him of being in my cpanel when I had his IP as the last to login, and my server tech caught him....TADA, then to sit and turn the tables and try and make me the fall guy, the bad guy!
For Public Viewing:

Laurel Hosting will be taking the proper avenue to pursue legal action against 8814 Hosting.
Have copies of written Skype converstaions. Have screen shots of WHMCS Billing system, with the help of WHMCS.com server files dating March 2011 through April 2011. Have screen shot of cpanel time and date, with help of ESB Host server tech.
8814 is now in vololation of the United States Copyright Law.
8814 Hosting has copyrighted our entire Rental Agreement verbatium.

Laurel Hosting is a legal and binding business run under the name of Edward
A Kimmel Sr. All material on said website written or otherwise is the legal property of
Laurel Hosting.

Being a legally run business with an EIN number we are protected under the
United States Copyright Law.
This is the only response that William Baker aka Gene Baker owner of 8814 Hosting.com could provide once he was caught abusing our billing system, hacking into our cpanel, and using our copyrighted material. These are serious allegations that have been proven. We will be pursuing legal advise. This man uses my health problems as a solution to all. Clearly still in denial he swears we are in need of mental help. We have proof and in light of this his only response is to make fun. His response:

"ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you really need some help!!!!!! the drugs that you are taking has really mess you up!!!"

This was his response to our proven allegations, and now we can prove slander against him.

UNBELIEVABLE
Who Scammed You Commenter
He is certainly going to get all that he has coming to him and as i stated I will do whatever i have to, to help you shut him down indefinetly! He can NOT keep doing what he is doing to people and be considered a Legal business. We MUST in fact get the word out to EVERYONE to stare clear of him (GENE BAKER) and anything close to what he is calling a business! I want to THANK YOU, for stepping up because this in FACT made Gene run scared and in turn we got notification from Alertpay, that he has in fact put in for a refund! Once again, it was certainly NOT the money that I was disputing, it was the principal of what he did to us and NOW he is getting what he deserves. You just can't continue to do people dirty, and think you'll keep getting away with it, you are sure to run yourself, into a brick wall! I am once again, VERY sorry to hear ALL that he has done to you, and I will in fact, do whatever I have to as I stated to support you, in exposing GENE BAKER for the manipulating, person he is!
I know... it's like he has a God Complex. I will be contacting my attorney Richard Bowers and seeing what can be done about him. He has no money and cannot afford legal counsel, and that is why I backed off the last 2 months as I didn't want to take that route. I tried to just hold back my anger and disbelief that Gene did this to me a "so called friend" I built his sites and set him up in the business, gave him a break at every turn. I trusted him and he broke that trust. He took advantage of me at a bad time in my life and now blames the heart drugs I take.

Yes this is very UNBELIEVABLE.................
Well girlfriend 2 heads are better than one and let's get to exposing! I am shutting him down out here in the world legal wise... that is what I am doing first thing tomorrow (Monday) morning is setting up an appointment with my attorney to see what legally can be done. I have to much proof I have gathered in the last 2 months. I have had comunication with the owners of WHMCS the ones I lease my billing system from and they were all to happy to help. And of course my server host was all more than thrilled to help with the cpanel issue.

So the odds really are stacked against him and all he can say is stupid weird things, which to me is showing his true mentality.

I am so happy you got a refund as Gene shut that Alertpay account down in order to prvent you all from filingn a dispute. I was talking to him on Skype when he shut his Alrertpay account down, didn't know that did you?
Are you kidding me, you are as stupid as they come. More for my attorney as you have now slandered my name. YOU are dumb man. You messed up a zip as you don't even know how to zip and move a site. YOU MESSED UP, you got that right, and there ain't no manning up except to man up for being dumb. I don't steal customers like YOU DO!! I have proof Gene and YOU WILL BE HEARING from Richard Bowers my attorney in the next couple weeks as I have an appointment FRIDAY JULY 29TH. Think your woman can pay your way out of this.
I sat back and let you hang yourself. And now you just keep tightning your own noose! WILL YOU LEARN TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT?? The more you foam at the mouth the more gulity you look. When I am done with you, you will not have a home. You took advantage of a sick person, the courts will eat you alive man. Just shut up and keep quiet as you keep giving me more for my attorney to go on. Thank You again Gene for giving me this bit of slander for my attorney.... Folks this if from Willaim (Gene) Baker form 8814 Hosting. The man that abused my billing system by inputting his own information in an attempt to steal my clients.
And this is how he covers his ass by playing the blame game.. More to go on!!

"Do what you think you have to do and go ahead and believe what Dorothy is telling you about me. You will find out for yourself what she has done to people and what is going to happen to her for what she has done. You will see!!! She's a thief and manipulator and steals customers from people."
Put the whole email in Dot. Oh, That's right you are trying to ruin me!!! LOL
Dot, You got yourself involved in this!! LOL!!!

Everybody her's the email I sent to Mike Kontak in full!

Hello Mike,

That's not why the refund money. I would have won!! Which would not have been right! I just wanted to get away from you and the other lies that you 3 are spreading and that's all. Do what you think you have to do and go ahead and believe what Dorothy is telling you about me. You will find out for yourself what she has done to people and what is going to happen to her for what she has done. You will see!!! She's a thief and manipulator and steals customers from people. The only reason she wants anything to do with you and Maria is because she read the email that Maria sent to me about buying more sites and that is why she is doing what she is doing. She has no proof of anything because it never happened. I'm just trying to warn you ahead of time. And I also discovered that I did make a mistake in sending you the files and I did what any man would do and that was refund the money. I'm sorry for all that has happened and good luck to you in the future. At Least I maned up to it!!!!! Go ahead and post this on whoscammedme.com I'm going to!!!

Gene, you're being sued, and you think this is funny, Gene, you just gave my attorney more to go on. Do you realize what you are doing? You wrote untrue slanderous things about me and you hacked my cpanel and you abused my billing system and I am SUING YOU and you keep giving me more and more to go on! Lord will you ever learn? You just posted evidence....
I am the one that told you YOU made the mistake and did not send their correct database, you screwed up, and I didn't steal any customers of yours, they WERE NEVER YOUR CUSTOMERS......duh....Have you been paying attention?

And does your customer the owner of Tropical Sunset and Rock On know I uploaded his site and got him running as you didn't know how to do it? Does he know that? Well know he does? Does Priscilla know what you did to me, or does she believe the almighty nobody?

I have the proof, I have help from WHMCS on this matter and all the emails in the world to YOUR hosting company is not going to help you, why you even involved them I will never know? You are runing scared and firing blanks boy, Go get an attorney!!
Who Scammed You Commenter
Gene, You are a mess, and EVERYONE and ANYONE, can see what you done to US, and the SCAMMER you truly are. You are RIGHT about one thing, and that is we are going to EXPOSE you, and get your so called business shut down INDEFINETLY! I can't believe you think, after you were forced into paying back our money and with ALL the evidence on the site, and what another hosting company has against you, you would even have the nerve to show your face here, and try to pretend your the innocent one here. You are apparently a sick man that has thought you was getting away with ripping people off and taking their money, until you met us and ran into a brick wall! In regards to the slandering comments you made against Dot, and her hosting. She has been an ABSOLUTE God Send to Mike and I and has done NOTHING but help us and provided us with a website and everything, and has NOT asked for anything in return. That should ring a bell to you Gene, since you went to her and had her practically running your business and moving sites for you, and everything, and NOT ONCE thought to pay her show her in anyway, how much you should have been appreciating what she was doing for you. That is why, you destroyed our script before sending it, because sadly enough she was in the hospital and not around to help you, move the site, and in turn you tried doing it yourself, and wiped out an up and running business, because she was not around tohelp you do this, that she apparently, has showed you time and time again, to do on your own. We certainly saw Gene, you are NOT capable of the small task that are and would be required to run a PROFESSIONAL and LEGAL business on your own. You not only rip people off Gene, you are an abuser, and use people, and God Don't like ugly, this is why you are in turn going through ALL you are going through now, because of what you done to US and Lord knows how many other innocent people. Listen up EVERYONE., whatever you do, DO NOT, puchase anything from this guy EVER, Hosting, Websites anything, I promise you, you will REGRET IT! I mentioned in a previous message above you will be right where we are at right now, trying to get your money back, and putting up with being slandered and stressed all because of dealing with someone who is trying to call himself a business man!
http://8814hosting.com/ and http://8814hosting.com/hosting.html owner and operator Gene Baker! He will indeed RIP YOU OFF!!
I am done I have spoken my peace, see you Mr William Baker aka Gene Baker. in court. My only wish and prayer is that noone ever has the displeasure of ever running into you, ever hosting from you, or leasing from you, as now I will not be around to run your business for you. I did the work and you collected the pay. Thief, cheat, internet fraud. GET AN ATTORNEY.

HEY GENE, DO YOU RECALL TELLING DOT, f**** MIKE AND MARIA AND CLOSING DOWN YOUR ALERTPAY, UNTIL THEY FORCED YOU TO RE-INSTATE YOUR ACCOUNT, BECAUSE WE FILED A DISPUTE AGAINST YOU, AND YOUR SO CALLED BUSINESS?? ONCE AGAIN FOLKS STAY AWAY FROM http://8814hosting.com AND http://8814hosting.com/hosting.html IT IS DISASTER I PROMISE YOU THAT!
