How NOT to use FraudRecord.
This discussion has been closed.

And all counted.
Favorite saying. Ever.
Turns out, I'm one of those clients you mentioned! Have a VPS running with INIZ since 2014, never missed a payment and very happy with the service. Recently found out I'm listed with FraudRecord with a false accusation. No response to removal request. If John Mcafee wins his bet I'm going to sue this company within 3 years, don't care how much it will cost me. outraged and don't stand for this sh*t!!
How'd you determine this is you?
Also, if a provider is rejecting you because of a "non-payment" entry in Fraudrecord and that's it, I'd say you're actually dodging a bullet here. You're welcome.
A provider recently confronted me with this.
Link to the report?
NO. I just came here to say what I had to say. And I'm collecting information about FraudRecord. Did you know they already leaked customer/client information?

Fakenews. Link to report or GTFO.
Fakenews ahahahaha. I don't have to prove you anything.
Correct, but already nobody cares about you or your issue. You come complaining about a fraud report that you claim is false, refuse to show the report.
Why? Because it was correct and you don't want to share it, likely from a provider people here will trust and you know it.
Jog on.
I just landed here and posted my comment. Seriously I dont give a *** what you think.
@localhost
But that also doesn't give you permission to not give a f*** about everyone else, asshole.
Why do I need permission to give a f***???
If you don't care what the members of the forum you posted the comment on think, what's the point in the post? You posted to try and get people to side with your views of FraudRecord, yet are now saying you don't care what people think of it - surely that contradicts your choice to post + bump a year old thread.
He told ME to GTFO !!! Pay attention!
With the number of people that come to the forums posting their version of accounts with providers which turn out to be completely inaccurate, I think that's within reason. Sure, it may not be the best way to have said it, however there's no reason for anyone to believe you're opinion on here unless you can prove it (& most of the community won't believe it without proof from what I've seen).
Even more of a reason to "expose" the report.
As it stands right now, you're just looking like a fool.
I dont care if people believe me or not. I'm PISSED that my full name, address etc. is listed in a FRAUD database with a false statement. I didnt come here to convince you people about anything. Im just pissed off, is that so hard to understand???
Well, if that's your view, then there was no need at all to post here, if you don't want anyone to understand why you feel that way. Contacting FraudReport directly at https://www.fraudrecord.com/removal-process/ to alert them of what you claim to be a false reporting would be a lot more useful, as there's nothing members here can do about it (to my knowledge)
Doesn't FraudRecord use hashes only and never shares actual personally identified information? How it works?
Their site says that too: https://fraudrecord.com/security/ - so only can be tracked down to the individual by another person possessing the information who can hash it to check the database.
That's what I read too, but this whole enterprise doesn't appear to be run professionally and sensibly in the slightest. Database is full of dubious records, founder doesn't pay much attention and had slip ups in the past. What he says and what he does could be two very different things.
Someone with access to FR could verify if hashing happens on the provider's server or FR server? That would be appreciated.
The code for their modules can be downloaded by anyone at https://fraudrecord.com/integration/, so you should be able to check over it.
In the WHMCS module, the last few lines suggest it's hashed on the provider side:
It's no secret that I love FraudRecord. Also that I hate providers who misuse it, and think they should be shamed. Choosing not to shame them makes me sad.
But no, your contact information is not stored there, but if you did commit fraud then it wouldn't matter. Not a customer = no applicable privacy policy. No one committing fraud is going to contest that legally. If you didn't, they should be named and shamed.
I think FraudRecord deserve the shame more for not managing records better.
I think I've had a name change pending on my FR account for like 2 years now. It's not important though.. just something mistyped.
Ah well as the guy that decided to necro this has no substance and is most likely fully deserving to be on fraud record, probably for being generally abusive I could do with out the hot air and 20+ notifications @jarland as the OP I kindly request that you close this, please.
If the OP decides to grow up he can start his own thread and generally be an asshole to people in that.
