Iulian Halac Legal Threats

Iulian Halac Email 1

This person hack the email and post on a lot of negative websites.
Almost all understand the situation and remove the posts.
He stole some domains and copy some websites that wasn’t his. We contact google and they remove them from search results for copyright infringement.
We contact the FBI and that guy will be arrested soon.
At this moment you are protecting a HACKER AND AN EXTORTIONIST and doing his games.
 
If you don’t remove the post we are going to sue you and we will post on all negative websites that Chris Mitchell and companynamesucks.com are protecting a HACKER AND AN EXTORTIONIST and doing his games.
 
That post is a fake one and all the things from there are false.
 
Please do the right thing and remove the post.
 
Thank you

Congrats on making the Sucks blog, this email and any future email correspondence can be found here for the public to read. As per your legal threat, if you are a representative of the business, you can sign up for Business Support and write an Official Company response for the review in question.  Find out more here:  http://www.companynamesucks.com/companysignup.phpIf you wish to contact a lawyer I would like to make you aware of a federal law called the Communications Decency Act or “CDA”, 47 U.S.C. § 230. Because this important law is not well known, I want to take a moment to explain the law, and to also explain that the filing of frivolous lawsuits can have serious consequences for those who file them, both parties and their attorneys.

The CDA is part of our federal laws. An excellent Wikipedia article discussing the history of the law can be found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_Decency_Act.

In short, the CDA provides that when a user writes and posts material on a website such as Company Name Sucks, the site itself cannot, in most cases, be held legally responsible for the posted material. Specifically, 47 U.S.C. § 230(c)(1) states, “No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.”

Because the reviews on Company Name Sucks are authored by users of the site, we cannot be legally regarded as the “publisher or speaker” of the reports contained here, and hence we are not liable for reports even if they contain false or inaccurate information.

So, why should you care about the CDA? Well, it’s simple — if someone posts false information about you on Company Name Sucks, the CDA prohibits you from holding us liable for the statements which others have written.

If you file a lawsuit which you know contains false claims, or if you sue without first conducting a reasonable investigation as to the law as it may pertain to the facts of your case (such as determining the identity of the author of the Review(s) you are concerned about), you and/or your attorney can be subject to serious sanctions at the judge’s discretion.

In addition to penalties a judge may issue, those who would threaten us need to be aware of another law which imposes civil liability on anyone who files a frivolous lawsuit. This claim is known as “wrongful use of civil proceedings” and it is defined by § 674 of the Restatement (Second) of Torts as follows:

(a) he acts without probable cause, and primarily for a purpose other than that of securing the proper adjudication of the claim in which the proceedings are based, and

(b) except when they are ex parte, the proceedings have terminated in favor of the person against whom they are brought.

Thanks
Chris

I’m not reprezent a company and the post is not about a company it’s about a person.

This post affecting a person life not a company.

I hope you will get the good decision.

So please remove that post.

Maybe you should think about that before spinning a bullshit lie about your gmail being hacked.
