A new twist

I would send this state agency a certified letter simply stating my company does not engage and has not ever engaged in buisness in your state and if your company were ever to concider doing buisness it would only be so by following all applicable codes.and any inferance to fact you may have done buisness is seen as a personal insult and will result in filing legal action to see that no further interferance in your buisness is created.unless an immediuate written apology is recieved.

Hi Nick,

Personally I feel that I have already spent more time and efforts on this stupidity. They are going to have to PROVE that I have done something wrong. They can't!!! For them to try and glean violators in state by information collected solely on the "net" is an insult to my intelligence. They can go pound sand for all I care.

harassments..................................... or worse????

Worse. A few years ago an incompetent jackass from the state licensing board got a few pals to file a false complaint against my website, claiming that I was providing services which require a license. I proved to the state investigator that the complaint was bogus -- motivated by personal animosity and totally without merit. He concurred and recommended the matter be dismissed. The state attorney agreed.

In your case it was probably an overzealous investigator. In mine it was a deliberate attempt by a dishonest competitor (who also sits on the board) to hurt my business. In both cases the state employees involved ought to be disciplined but don't hold your breath waiting for that.

Hi Robert,

These people must be bred somewhere off shore and sent here to muck up everyone's daily life. I feel sorry for those people that start to shake in their shoes when something like this happens. That kind of reaction must give these investigators a feeling of euphoria. I find it insulting and harassment.

Sounds like a scam. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it, file it in the bottom drawer.

Don't be silly. A scam would infer that the state government is going to gain monetary funds in some way from me. This is not the case. It is pure stupidity on the part of a state government to start some legal paperwork to waste the taxpayers dollars.

Damned if I know. But I am sure what ever it is, I have the wrong one.

Well since your watching, then view this..................................................

Per ABLE_1:

I think it's SOP in Philadelphia.

I made the mistake of incorporating a one-man company while living not *in* but just near the city and they were on me within 3 months for sales tax evasion.

No "might" or "maybe".. they flat-out accused me.

Hadn't set foot inside the city during that time and never had any customers within the city.

I think it's just some sleazy operators working from lists.

come on dus briver. when you gonna nail bAss for using old material? or are you too busy wiping the jiz off your screen from your bAss lovefest. talk about brokeback, geez. Ok I'll do it . get some new material bAsswipe those old lies are all used up by now.

snip tired old lies

Hi Pete,

I believe that these "officials" that do this kind of harassment know that if they try it on the big company they will be dealing with a law suit in a heart beat. But, when they accuse the little guy they can intimidate and harass with little or no repercussions. These people are sick and twisted to say the least.

So which county are you in, Montgomery or Delaware???

Les

what's the challenge. the guy was mistaken. all you have to do is tell him so. end of story. find something real to worry about. or just sick them on bAss for a few kicks and giggles.

One state government worker from Florida's ECLB has displayed stupidity in its purest form. Why would you be surprised to find the same thing in other states?
