The Latest On Christian School, Spies, And Stalkers

07/24/2016 - CORRECTED 


07/16/2016: There are two black female working on that church across from me,  who have been poisoned by that Christian school. However, the women that I speak of have taken to watching my comings and goings. I made it a point to let them know that I am aware of them spying for that Christian school, by waving and saying hello to them, and as expected one of them called in the thugs.
These people are not what I see as Christians, and since their present on our avenue there has been more crimes in our area.

They do get caught on video driving by, especially when one of my neighbors and I are talking.  Yesterday, one parked his car across the street from the front of my home pretending to be just talking, while the black man outside of the car would look under the car as if to see if something was under it. This behavior started with one of the resident on 39th street and Dartmouth from a resident near the end of the street where the church stands. This household, 3745 & 3937 Dartmouth N, is directly associated to at least one of the three black teenage girls that caused all that trouble on the avenue a couple years back. I discovered this by chance while walking up the street one morning. This household is also associated with 3744 Dartmouth N, a household previously witness as having people directly link with illegal drug use in public.

I can only guess that this behavior is another form of intimidation. A threat to run me over with their cars.  Well, both driver are on videos. Their actions are irresponsible and criminal.



Speaking of irresponsible drivers, I encountered a female driver yesterday, who apparently had no regards or care for the fact the she parked her on the public sidewalk and not the in the empty parking of the business office that she stated she was waiting to open. Was she recruited by these thugs to do that because knew walked by there someday, or did she truly not care that she was blocking a pedestrian sidewalk. In any case, I believe that these same troublemakers are those associated with those drug families on 6th street and 53rd Avenue South, that Christian school across from me, and those associated with the three black teenage girls are responsible for these events.


Of the above, after viewing my pictures I realize that the sidewalk driver and the female walker at the church both drive blue cars. I don’t think these incidents are unrelated.  Why do people believe these troublemakers?

Early that day.

Later that day.

Attorney General Bondi and FTC Shut Down Tech Support Scam

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.—Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Federal Trade Commission today announced that a federal court has temporarily shut down an international tech support operation bilking consumers out of millions of dollars. According to the investigation, the scam attempted to scare consumers into believing their computers were compromised by malware or hackers, and then company representatives pretending to be certified by or affiliated with Microsoft and Apple offered to fix the problem for a fee. The court order temporarily shut down the defendants’ operation, froze the defendants’ assets and placed control of those assets with a court-appointed receiver. The complaint filed jointly by Attorney General Bondi’s Office and the FTC alleges that defendants based in Florida, Iowa, Nevada and Canada relied on a combination of deceptive online ads and misleading, high-pressure sales tactics to frighten consumers into spending hundreds of dollars for dubious computer repairs and antivirus software.

 

According to the complaint, the defendants caused consumers’ computers to display advertisements sometimes designed to resemble security alerts from Microsoft or Apple. These ads warned consumers that their computers may be infected with malware and urged them to call a toll-free number to safeguard both their computer and sensitive personal information stored on it. Consumers who called the numbers in these ads were routed to the defendants’ call center in Boynton Beach, where telemarketers purported to run a series of diagnostics tests that inevitably discovered the existence of grave problems that the call operator claimed must be immediately fixed at a cost of $200 to $300. 

The defendants also frequently told consumers that they needed to spend an additional $200 to $500 to replace their existing antivirus software, which the defendants always claimed to be outdated and ineffective. According to the complaint, consumers can acquire this software for a fraction of the cost charged by the defendants. In many instances, the software the defendants sold to consumers with Apple computers is available as a free download. 

The defendants in the case include Big Dog Solutions LLC, doing business as Help Desk National and Help Desk Global; PC Help Desk US LLC, doing business as Help Desk National and Help Desk Global; Inbound Call Specialist LLC; BlackOpteck CE, Inc.; 9138242 Canada Corporation; Digital Growth Properties, LLC; Christopher J. Costanza, doing business as CJM Consulting, LLC; Muzaffar Abbas; Donald Dolphin; Suzanne W. Harris; Gary Oberman; and Justin Powers.

The defendants are charged with violations of the FTC Act, the Telemarketing Sales Rule and the Florida Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
