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.

I think most seasoned investors, who have taken a few lumps along the way, understand that chasing lost money is not the optimal use of time and energy.

It costs money.
It distracts you from moving forward with productive projects.
It doesn't work.

I try to think of it as tuition. Some investor friends talk about seminars. "It was a good year except for that $100,000 seminar I took."

Um well if you make bad picks in the stockmarket yes...

But if someone comes in your house, steals your antique clock, pawns it, and spends that on cocaine and hookers and you have that on CCTV... if you hand over the CCTV to the cops and the guy gets put away at least other people are protected.

In fact Dicker kindly warns people about scammers:

Watch out for scammers and scam domains
SCAMMERS normally register a domain and have a website for an imaginary company. They also use e-mail addresses based on that domain. The site usually uses text and/or images copied from legitimate websites.

Dayaaaaahm! Nobody is that stupid. His developers must have plugged that in til they came up with his 'real' speaking engagement list.

 

[Atomic Domains]

Must have been one of his many, many clients - check out the list he claims:
http://www.adamdicker.net/clientstestimonials/

I wonder if they know they are on there?

By the way, it is wise to screenshot and save Dicker stuff - sometimes it disappears lol.

Another fake, those belong to this guy::

I posted a warning to others in the DNF College facebook page...I was unable to post a new posting do to limitations on admin approval but was able to post under the latest review video:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/domaincollege/647319752075639/

Adam is quoted as saying:
Adam Dicker There is much more to this story that will come out.

Makes me wonder just how much more will come spilling out of this situation.

 

[Atomic Domains]

By the way, there was a warning on DNF about Adam Dicker spamming DNF users... I can confirm, my email I use with DNF gets heavily spammed. I only use this email for NP, DNF and Bitnami...

We can't trust Adam Dicker with our personal info on that forum.. I honestly would advise people to stop using it, let's boycott DNF until it moves hands....

Agreed, I wouldn't trust someone who extorts people publishing their personal data all over the internet.

The thread is still open on dnf, I'm not going to post it here but it was started by a well respected person in this industry. Just search "spam" on DNF and you'll find it. I can confirm I've been spammed heavily on an email I use with dnf and I HIGHLY doubt it's NP and know it's no one else.

 

[Dadster]

I don't doubt you. Just that hasn't happened to me. What do you recommend, quit the site? That site cost money to join and upgrade.

 

[enlytend]

If you follow the links on some of the client names, they go to pages on briantracy.com. Looks like the "client list" was ripped straight from that website.

Wow. Just ... wow.

 

[carob]

You probably have valid grounds to ask for a refund on the grounds that they heavily overstated the advertised number of members - as shown earlier in this thread. You were told you'd have access to way more members than there really are.

If you want, you could change your account email address there to something else, like for example [email protected] or [email protected]

 

[umask077]

On another note... at this point in time, I don't see why "part 2" hasn't been made public yet, assuming there's a "part 2".

 

[Atomic Domains]

Your choice bro.. I just don't understand how anyone can use that forum without doubts of personal information being misused knowing this guy track record... I personally stopped using that forum months ago and so have a few others I know.

I remember when Adam came to help of Toby Clements victims by dumping his personal info on DNF to help us get hold of him. Now its your turn to make right of this mess...

wow, based on the post. I would have to agree, he should take heed to the post much as he did himself.

 

[Dadster]

nixed myself on site. no contact info, or anything else. you said I should submit for a refund? ROTFLMAO - you gotta be kidding me......

 

[DomainGist]

Conspiracy theory mode - does anyone actually met his family? Does he even have any or is it another lie...

Yes his family are real, yes I've seen a family photo, but they should 100% not be brought into this, what would be the reason for doing so?

I agree that his family shouldn't be brought into the discussion but I feel they should be informed of what's going on here. Perhaps they can get him the mental help he needs?

 

[DomainGist]

Its highly likely that they already know about this thread. Their contact details have been posted and then deleted multiple times.

Didn't know that. Hopefully everything works out for the best interest of everyone who got screwed over. This thread feels like it's been going on for years and it's only been 2 weeks.

 

[Domainace]

That's a contradictory statement.

Imagine some stranger "kindly" contacting your wife to inform her of your business/legal problems. That's stalking, basically. It's what creeps do.
