Dave Schwartz: An Announcement
As many of you know, I have a hater.
This hater has managed to increase our video streaming costs by continually downloading files. Click-click-click.
This amounted to 287 times our normal download fees.
This is not a sustainable cost for us.
In turn, this has caused us to have ALMOST ALL our video files taken offline.
We will have to rebuild the data on another streaming site, with different streaming strategy. It will take some time to facilitate, as well as tens of thousands of dollars.
(Yes, we have his IP addresses, yes, they are traceable to him, and yes, we already have legal action in the works.)
Within a few days, we should have something set up on another site.
If there is something you absolutely need, please write to Kelsey Crenshaw and she can get it set up for you.
Thanks in advance for your patience.
Dave Schwartz
Special Note: Nothing has been lost.

That's just crazy. If it's who I think it is then he's got a screw loose. Maybe more than one. Geezus. Life's too short. Let it go already.

Or get him on IP Logger so when he clicks the link all (hopefully relevant) info is there
Did that with a Facebook "friend" who kept trying to get money out of me so I did a quick IP Logger link and turns out this person was not from the USA but from good old Nigeria
Hopefully you can get this sorted out Dave that is a horrible situation to be in right now at this time of year

It’s crazy how people abuse technology nowadays (don’t even get me started).
Hope this gets resolved soon, Dave.

Resolved?
Never. He's a cowardly POS.
It shows what a small, tiny, pitiful man he really is.
Of course, everyone can see it.
It will change how we do business.
But we will survive.
Then we will thrive.
Again.

Dave's new hit single is in the process here
The title: The Scammer (like The Gambler by Kenny Rogers)
I'm sorry it is not funny to joke about just keeping it positive
