TV2ME - Ken Schaffer ripoff Company owner is a deadbeat & liar New York New York

Contrary to his self-important claim, I have never met, nor have I had any dealings with this anonymous John.  I would demand that the anonymous author provide any proof of this accusation -- which is contrary to scores of unconditionally positive references that are returned from a search on my name. 

Before attending to the "complaint, I would divert for a moment to the posters account of my relationship with Eventide Clockworks  while Richard Factor, founder and CEO of Eventide,  was  30 years ago, and remains today, one of my best friends,  I was at no time hired by Eventide, no association was terminated quickly, as "John" recounts. There has been no interruption in my 40 year relationship with Richard or with Eventide, and my only "relationship" with the company was that of friend/advisor to Richard, personally.  

 While I've never dealt with this "John" character, my 11-year-old son, unfortunately, did.  The Craigslist posting anonymous John refers to was my 11 year old sons  headlined  specifically for assistance on an obscure problem he had with his Ubuntu Linux computer. 

John, apparently trolling for money, caught the Craigslist post and replied to my son by telephone. He confess immediately that he didn't know anything about Linux whatsoever. Nevertheless, John proceeded to patronize him with a boring lecture on the importance of antivirus software.  My son, then age 11 was less than patient suffering through this Johns blabber, Following that call he did, thankfully, get several positive responses his Linux question from qualified responders.

 Some days after this, John, having learned from my son who his father was, commenced calling our home number incessantly --  5 times, 10 times -- demanding payment for "his services."  As he noted, chump change, fittingly....  for his useless, egocentric conversation with an 11-year-old  in which he even failed to perform,

 His ripoff report has been posted for several years.  

 I have not until now bothered rebutting his drivel on this "ripoffreport,  but a fair number of people query my name in search and -- when they see "ripoffreport" ranked  high in the results -- are intrigued, enticed - drawn like moths to a flame -  to click. And of course each curious click results in this anonymous "John's" complaint getting an even high placement -- sometimes outranking the New York Times, People Magazine, the New Yorker, PBS and a score of other highly regarded (fact-checked) publications that offer extensive and well researched articles about me that are uniformly contrary to "Johns" assertion in this silly story. 

Before taking this Johns singular whining seriously, consider that any anonymous stalker can attempt to denigrate your reputation, exactly this same way, too!
