I'm writing this email to you because you are listed as the custodian of
record for content that was purchased or leased from your company by
PythonPays/Dollarmachine.
I wanted you to be aware of an incident that happened, before the holidays,
at our Toronto offices. A reporter from NBC Dateline in NYC posing as a
concerned parent who's 2 year old got a pornographic spam was able to get
access into our offices and ask staff numerous questions about our business.
They where also recording the responses with hidden cameras and microphones.
The reporter was John Hockenberry
http://www.msnbc.com/onair/bios/j_hockenberry.asp and he arrived in a
wheelchair with a male & female assistant. They initially lied and said they
had a meeting inside and needed help getting into the building. A couple of
our staff helped them into a service elevator and took them past security.
The next day, the same 3 people, went to the offices of one of our content
suppliers in New York and tried to interview them as well, asking questions
about Python and what they did to supply Python with pornography.
They may try to contact you or people within your company to ask questions
about your business. Our lawyers have suggested that the best way to deal
with any press is to be polite, listen to their questions, find out who they
are, get their contact information, and tell them you will write them back
with the information they require. It is best to say as little as possible
on camera and try to limit your contact with them. John Hockenberry has
written training manuals on undercover investigative journalism and they
know how to get you to talk. It is best not to head to head with them in
front of a camera.
The Federal Labelling & Record-Keeping Law 18 USC 2257 requires us to carry
your contact information on our sites and this is how you are connected to
us. Although it is highly unlikely that they will contact every person we do
business with, it is a possibility and we didn't want you to get caught
un-aware. Please pass this on to whoever you think is appropriate in your
company.
If you have any questions you can contact me at 416-534-5000 or
[email protected].
Thank you
