Default How to make a fool of yourself and your business

Signed on today to find this threat in my PM box:

"10/29/2009

Please be advised legal action has been taken against Air Trap for statements and photos enter on this web site offshore only if you do not want to be included in this legal action taken against Air Trap WE ADVISE YOU TO REMOVE YOUR COMENTS ASAP.
F o n s e Performance


Cc Esquire Roger Mattson"


I already replied in Beware section that he can kiss my A** as there is nothing even close to actionable in my post. When he's out of business, I hope he isn't going to cry about the economy because that won't be what did it.

How do you like this
One thing he forgot in business: TAKE CARE OF YOUR CUSTOMERS FIRST! This was the second PM in my mailbox. If this guy spent more time with Air Trap, solving the issue his name wouldn't be on the forum.

That's what cracks me up the most....that a guy that has been a business owner for apparantly over 35 years can not write a complete sentence without spelling and grammatical errors.

I have no problem stating the truth which is that my one and only dealing with ***** Performance was one of my worst. They are truly the most unprofessional group of hooligan, "Gansta" wanna be's I've ever seen.

To make a long story short, we had a truck and trailer waiting on our 31' Sonic that was in their custody after we purchased it from Cooper Capital (Another bunch of crooks) Story after story...broken forklifts to release issues.. to Cooper still owing them money... finally with some good ole NJ state patrolmen in hand, we got our boat on a Friday night at 9pm.

The part I really liked was when we were told that "We just might want to keep your boat. Dont F*** with us Jersey boys!" That came from Al ***** himself.

Further evidence that people with identity issues shouldn't watch re-runs of the "Sopranos."
