Template Monster and Getty - my story

Good idea but TM can't be archived due to their roobots.txt http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/http://www.templatemonster.com but I still have that package and the password on our server.

Gettyvictim120,
My sincere congratulations to your victory!

Great and helpful story from gettyvictim120.

I know that one cannot record phone conversations and use them in court in most jurisdictions.
But, if gettyvictim120 had a copy of that conversation with Getty that was 'admissible", it's possible that he could have used that against them, I think.

If Getty admitted that he/she wasn't at fault (and he/she could prove that Getty said that), and they came after this person anyway, wouldn't that be a case of criminal fraud?
In addition, if they perpetuate a fraud by sending correspondence between states by mail, isn't that federal offense, with possible felony consequences?

At the very least, it would be great to get some police reports going, then post them online.

I can see why some of the principals involved in these schemes want to hide in the shadows.
They'll slip up eventually, and the people who made a "brand" for themselves in the industry could be on the other side of this.

Look at a recent forum topic about a person "winning their two Getty cases."  They had a TM issue and Getty ended up refunding them their settlement amount as they have a global settlement in place with TM.  Maybe it will help guide you  in your case
