Somebody has registered using my name, copied my CCC avatar and is posting at the Tony Thomas mylivepage forum (including copying a post of mine from here that includes my email addresses).
Please be aware that this is not me, but I'd love to be able to get some action taken against them. Peter?
The owner of that site has also posted he messaged me on CCC. This is also untrue, so I can only guess he's part of the deception.
Cheers,
Graham.

are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

Not sure Eelco. I'm hoping that Peter might provide some good advice or assistance.Eelco de Groot wrote:Shame on them Graham.

Cheers,
Graham.If there is something that we in the forum can do to bring that site down, then we should do it. I hope Peter knows what is the best action to take, but we have enough material for an official complaint I would think? Where should we direct our complaints?

Re: Please be aware
The person running that forum has just posted this, implying that I had registered and posted there. This is completely untrue and because of this, I will be laying a complaint with whoever is responsible for allowing the forum to exist.
Graham Banks has been banned from posting on my site and his threads have been deleted. He claims that he did not make the postings. He wants to use this as a excuse to ask some weasel to close this site down. Shame on him.
Thankfully, the posts using my stolen identity (name and avatar) have been removed.
