So I emailed an agent who I deal with since last year and noticed their was a complaint/scam alert filed against their company. I let her know and she emailed me saying ripoffreports.com is responsible for racketeering and extortion - she claims the company asked their company for $50,000 US to delete the scam alert.

She also says their are dozen or more complaints about this website, anyone else aware of this?

very surprising as I always thought they were reliable (but maybe I have the names confused with another?)

below is a quote from the email i got

There is only 1 internet website, on the entire internet, www.ripoffreport.com that has reported anything negative about our company. This site acts as a “so called bulletin board” and is protected under our countries freedom of speech laws and cannot be held liable of inaccurate postings. It allows people to post false information anonymously without having to be held accountable. This site is the subject of many lawsuits for liable and defamation. It creates an atmosphere to extort money from legitimate businesses to make the negative postings not come up until later search pages. ***company**** has elected not to pay upwards to $50,000 to make these posts disappear; we will not give in to extortion. The information contained on that site is totally inaccurate and false.

Soon or later, they will mess with wrong people.
It's just matter of time.
