Reports About Rip Off Report Sites

Rip Off Counter-Reports

Consumer reporting sites like RippedOffOnline.com are beginning to get a bad reputation and it is because some businesses and individuals would rather attempt to discredit a website than bow to angry consumers. Reporting sites like ROO serve a valuable purpose; we allow people to post their experiences and exercise there First Amendment rights.

In this country, everyone has the right to speak out against corrupt and deceitful businesses and individuals. I get really annoyed when someone says that our site content is untrue and false. But it does tell me that we are doing our job; allowing people to speak freely. Although ROO may write articles, reviews and post comments, we never, ever falsify reports, or edit reports and comments of others, except to censor foul language or block information that could cause physical harm to a person or is a security threat to our great country.

Consumers of today mold the world of business and finance more than ever. Bad businesses are starting to see that the Internet is not a good place to be if they are not playing fair; they will get reported!

Are there false and unfair reports out there? No doubt, there are, there always have been - everywhere. But they are far outnumbered by real reports that tell stories of how rip offs and scams destroy lives and finances. Without sites like ROO the consumer would be at the mercy of bad businesses, thieves and other low-lives.

Truth is, a business cannot exist, or a person be well known without someone saying something bad about them at some point - even if the business or person conducts themselves in an exemplary fashion. But you will notice that the companies and individuals who are on the up-and-up will respond to negative publicity with a positive attitude, feedback and useful information – lending credibility, whereas bad businesses and individuals will lash out and try to discredit the reporter or the website, thus exposing themselves as foolish and untrustworthy.

The key here is for the consumer to use reporting sites as just another tool to investigate who is really legitimate and has the consumers’ best interests in mind. Reporting sites do not normally investigate the correctness or voracity of any report, that’s not our job or charter; our job is to provide you with the information to investigate and make a decision for yourself, by allowing consumers to post freely, their information and real-world experiences.

So, when you run into a site that says RippedOffOnline and/or consumer reporting sites are scams, you must consider that those sites do not want you to see the big picture and are likely run by someone who has been reported at some time and is ticked off about it.
