This will hopefully prove a valid warning to anyone who chooses to repost information found on Registration websites. No matter what their intentions, if the original info is wrong (and there is a wealth of errors on those sites), they should be held accountable. WTG Janice! Keep up the great work!

Am I missing something? The claims by two actual registrants about extortion were dismissed. How did ex offenders win?

Great job Janice. I hope plaintiffs will see the money. At least it may worry some of the other websites.

I hope he’s not planning on raising the money he owes by opening a few more ‘valid’ extortion sites.
