It's not just the real estate business that is cutthroat these days.

According to Pro Real Estate Network, several less than flattering posts have been removed over the last month from someone(s) who logged in under another moderator's password, which just happened to be the same one the moderator used on Real Estate Webmasters.

Here is an excerpt by Vegas Mack, who I believe is the site owner, that posted about why he thinks REW Morgan Carey is a criminal:

Yesterday one of our Moderators, Mert, contacted me and asked why I deleted one of his threads. I assured him I had not and started checking into it.

To my horror I discovered that Mert’s password was used to delete several threads over the past few months.

The deleted threads have two things in common.

1) They all are less than flattering about Morgan Carey and or RealEstateWebmasters(dot)com.
2) They were all deleted from IPs used by Morgan and employees of RealEstateWebmasters(dot)com.

 

Ironic, in light of Morgan Carey's recent AR post defending his community with comments like:

"#5. REW will not tolerate any other member stealing (Borrowing) intellectual property or website content without expressed written permission of the owner of said property.."

Some additional reading material about the alleged REW & Morgan Carey forum hacking. Another blog about Morgan Carey accused of hacking was picked up yesterday by many online news wires as well, SEO Guru Greg Boser's post about REW accused of hacking, and the moderator who's password was used wrote about what he perceived to be the criminal intent of REW's Morgan Carey.

I just saw a screenshot posted by Mack. It looks like it will be mighty hard for Morgan to wiggle out of this one.

Surprising enough to motivate me to write in my own blog about it but honestly its the kind of thing I really wanted to give Morgan the benefit of the doubt.  Being a webmaster and web designer myself, I as many in our business know some times people are vindictive and post untrue stuff about you in forums.

However, had I not seen this behavior in the past I'd think it was far fetched and with the newest evidence, I'm baffled as to why so bold.

It is not boldness, it is arrogance.

The data has not been recovered yet but we do have hopes of doing so. Even if we are able to recover all of the threads/posts that were deleted the damage is done. It has resulted in the loss of aged content to the forum and aged back-links for our Members not to mention the 404s it created.
