What Can You Do to Prevent a Rogue Employee from Destroying Your Business?
Knowledge is Power. That’s nothing new…We all live in a world economy with an ever increasing reliance on internet commerce. In that environment, knowledge, comes in the form of electronic data. If you look at the balance sheets of most internet-based businesses, the value of the business has little to do with “brick and mortar” or other tangible assets. The value of these businesses stems from the know-how, programs and raw data that have been put together by key personnel.

As we speak, my firm represents a formidable affiliate marketing enterprise. The principals have put years of blood, sweat, tears and money into getting to where they are. Only to find out one day, that their former right-hand man threatens to bring it all down…
How can you help ?
Our client’s senior executive, who uses pseudonyms, “Jack Smith” and “Jeff Foss,” embedded script in our client’s third-party and proprietary software in order to, among other things, copy millions of user records and send those records to companies he and cohorts had established – of course, to use for his own power. Jack’s cohorts go by the pseudonyms “Steve Nair,” “Sam Nair,” and “Steve Winsent.” Their illegally competing companies are called “Skayans Marketing” and “GoNimble Technologies Pvt., Ltd.”
These individuals have cost jobs, put a black eye on the industry, and deprived good people of untold profits by using our client’s hard work for their own gain. It’s fraudulent and it’s repugnant. If you have any information on these individuals, these companies or having accounts in any Affiliate networks, please contact me by telephone at 312.261.5566 or email at [email protected]. Help us to fight fraud.
Let’s Keep the Industry Clean!
