New York, New York (PRWEB) August 31, 2012
A recent condition from the Los Angeles Times gives the impression that, in this day and age, scams are a dime a dozen. The condition rounds up a number of alleged cons, frauds and schemes from both the online and offline realms, exhorting consumers to exercise caution. In particular, the condition notes one online scam, in which illegitimate escrow services offer their services to consumers who have participated in online auctions. The Internet Crime Complaint Center has flagged these phony escrow services for taking consumers money but never sending the promised merchandise. The condition does an vital service by alerting consumers to some real and potential frauds that existbut according to one company, Reputation Changer, scam reports and allegations are not always to be trusted, and sometimes they only end up doing harm to legitimate businesses.
Reputation Changer has reacted to the Los Angeles Times condition with a new press statement. In the companys press statement, CEO Cliff Stein says that online scam allegations are a slippery slope. It is surely right that, thanks to the anonymity afforded by the Internet, there are plenty of scams out there, and its vital for the consumer to be cautious, he observes. That online anonymity is ultimately a two-edged sword. Not only does it mean there are many scams, but also many fake scam reports. A lot of legitimate and reputable businesses are grubby, attacked with scam allegations when they have done nothing incorrect.
According to Reputation Changer, scam accusations can come from a wide array of sources. We have worked with many companies that have been subject to these outrageous accusations, Stein affirms. Sometimes, the scam rumors stem from consumers who simply were not pleased with the products or services. In other cases, but, they come from mad or bitter employees, or from business competitors.
This underscores an vital truth, Stein saysnamely, that no company is immune to online scam allegations. A lot of companies operate under the assumption that, if they treat consumers honestly and do not misrepresent themselves, there is no way this could happen to them, he notes.
But, scam allegations are not always based in fact. That means they can besiege any brand or business.
Stein goes on to say that the hurt done by these allegations of wrongdoing are potentially devastating. It is no exaggeration to say that fake reports of fraudulent activity, when circulated on the Internet, can lead to a business demise, or at the very least lead to diminished sales and lost customers, says Stein. Additionally, when word gets out that a business is running a scamwhether those allegations have any basis in reality or notthey often encourage clients to request refunds and chargebacks. Bottom line: Scam accusations can end a business reputation and lead to a whole litany of problems.
At Reputation Changer, scam reports do not have to be a death sentence, but. Stein says that his company has worked to help many brands bounce back from these reputation disasters. A lot of companies have come to us seeking to apparent their names, and we are passionate for helping them do exactly that, he enthuses. The terrible news is that we cannot prevent public from posting these scam allegations. But, we can seek to render them non-issues.
Stein clarifies that his company practices a form of online suppression. We inundate search engines with content that presents our clients brand in a positive light, he says. So when a consumer searches for that brand, he or she sees the positive listings, while the unwanted search consequences are pushed out of the way.
