Is Adam Dicker a criminal? You decide.

[S-B]

This story starts with DNF; a barren wasteland that once was a leading forum within the domain industry. While the forum itself played a huge role in propagating the myth that is Adam Dicker, the story really begins with DNF College in the summer of 2011.

From what I understand, Adam still owes north of $33,000 to previous customers and business partners. As I receive more information, I will update this figure.

Adam Dicker is the domain illuminati... Anyone that doesn't get their money back and run and opts in for yet another mini site is not being smart! In a week this thread will be gone and with that any chance you have of ever getting paid.
.....

This thread will be gone I can assure you of that and with that Adam will be back at things before you know it.

This thread is in ultra high jack mode by *surprise non English speaking random people* (hello fivers)

Who could have foresaw that??? Dickerbots are on full search and destroy mode now. (hello adam)

Shane if you don't release whatever you have it will be too late. If you think its a coincidence not a single blogger has posted a thing on this you are mistaken.

 

[frank-germany]

Do you think he was wrong?

sorry men I was told to shut up

anyway I think I told you what I wanted to say:

keep a sense of proportion
and listen to both parties
and don't do overkill

 

[DomainGist]

so you are still trying to make me shut up?

ok
I'll shut up master
your wish is my command

I don't have the ability to 'make' you shut up, I'm just a member like you, I do 'want' you to shut up though because you don't seem to have anything constructive to contribute to the topic at hand.

Just answer the question.

 

[frank-germany]

Just answer the question.

I had done so already
thats the answer

Can we just drop this now?! One guy may have did a few people dirty, so what. Registrars do thousands of people dirty on a daily and folks stay tight lipped.

I'll call this thread the Bill Cosby copy cat. Nobody said a word for loads of time but everyone jumped on the wagon quick in hopes of getting noticed after the initial accusations. How about a 70 page thread about how godaddy and NJ auction off property that they don't own? Most registrars are filthy and folks would rather jump on one guy vs fight the bigger issue. Sad...

Seriously?

 

[Jeff Markus]

Is anyone surprised by these comments from Adam supporters? Who else would defend Adam.

I think people will move on once they've been paid. How about that.

What ever happened to "Stay on topic" policy?
The TRUE intent of this thread of helping others to come forward is being deliberately sidetracked.
Where are the Mods?

are you sure?

Of course the poster is not sure...unless he/she reads minds....

And as with this thread, nobody said a word until one person spoke out for attention.

There has been a lot of evidence of habitual lying presented which have changed a lot of peoples perceptions of Adam Dicker. Not just related to those who feel that they have been denied money or ripped off, but also questionable claims about past success, the amount of traffic he gets to his website, and using stock images of fake people to present the perception that he has a team.

And it wasn't just one person, like even Michael Cyger stated in his chat transcript there'd be many complaints. It was numerous people from the very beginning, many people from the facebook group, and several employees, Shane didn't find one person before starting this, he simply provided the platform from which they could feel brave enough to share their experiences about somebody who intimidated them.

Adam Dicker has been shown to be a deeply dishonest individual, this thread has been in the public interest. If it helps even just one person being ripped off or strung along then it would have been worth it.

That just two or three posters are currently succeeding in steering the agenda now suggests that rather than invest money in righting his wrongs, Adam Dicker may be investing in shills. It would be difficult to believe that webinvestments and frank-germany are not shills. The quality of their work is shoddy though, no wonder people weren't happy with the quality of their outsourced nichewebsites.com purchases.

That's not true. I know at least one person who has been harping on the TDNAM Godaddy scandal for 7 years. Only now you have been listening, and others with more egregious wounds are coming forth. It's been out there, you just haven't been hearing it.

I'm not saying this guy is a saint. I'm saying the focus is all wrong. It's like going after a small time drug dealer instead of focusing on the kingpin. The registrars are crooked as hell and no 70 page threads are centered around that!

Really? I participated in a thread on here very recently in which many posters relayed their stories about NetworkSolutions and advised people not to use them and to transfer out. Plenty of discussion about their questionable practices on the web.

 

[Jeff Markus]

It doesn't matter what you guys do to try and get this back on track. Adam has hired enough fiverrs to make sure this thread goes side ways. Even when a good reasonable post like Pugdomains happens you can see instantly how its side tracked again.

 

[domainesque]

I asked you to PM me with details 5 pages ago.

@umask077

Blog will be updated. Still gathering information about people who are owed money.

Sorry for some reason I didn't see that.

If Shane Bellone has any more bombs to drop then he needs to do it now.

Although even if he doesn't, this thread will still prove valuable as a warning to others in the future.

Where is that? It's gone because people are afraid to take on a giant but they suddenly get couragious when a little guy is the target.
