Have you ever seen the movie "The Net" staring Sandra Bullock? In the movie, a young woman virtually "loses" her ID, and, has a long, hard battle to clear her name, and, start her life over fresh.
Unfortunately, life is now in imitating art, on Monday, March 6, 2011, a New Jersey couple confessed to ID theft and fraud after running a travel agency and cruise message board under the same name and information as someone else. And, a woman's life was destroyed because of it.
Quoted from clubdoconline.com by Rob Smith
"In a world with billions of people in it, you are bound to share your name with a few others; however, when your name causes others hurt or embarrassment to those who share your name then you must take responsibility and set the record straight. Ready 2 Go Travel and Cruise Freek owners Irwin Davis and Jacqueline "Tina" Rinaldi Davis announced today, Monday, March 7, 2011, that they would like to issue an apology to those people who share the name of Tina Rinaldi.
In an out of court settlement, Irwin Davis and Jacqueline Tina Rinaldi Davis agreed to issue this statement plus pay undisclosed monetary damages to author Tina Rinaldi who is a travel writer, and, has had her reputation destroyed due to the actions of the couple. Davis and Rinaldi also agreed to publicly admit to ID Theft of Jacqueline Tina Rinaldi which began back in 1999 and includes (but is not limited to) credit card theft and ID theft in exchange for all pending charges to be dropped. The arrangement has forced the Montclair, New Jersey couple to file for bankruptcy.
The couple also publicly admit they used the travel writers name, information, and, image to try to gain credibility when Cruise Freek Forums was launched in 2007. Davis and Rinaldi accept full responsibility for all contests that were associated with Cruise Freek Forums, and, apologize to those who were involved in the contests. The couple still claim that they had corporate sponsors to back up the prize offerings until the whole thing began to unravel and the board and the name Tina Rinaldi earned a very bad reputation.
Travel writer Jacqueline Tina Rinaldi (author of the "What The Brochures Didn't Tell You" book series) was not available for a statement at the time of this press release. Irwin Davis and Jacqueline Tina Rinaldi Davis would like to apologize, again, to the writer, and, appreciate the opportunity to settle out of court.
Davis and Rinaldi plan to relaunch Ready 2 Go Travel and Cruise Freek Forums (a cruise message board) under their own names later in 2011. The following statement is now displayed on all Ready 2 Go Travel and Cruise Freeks websites and associated websites
"The owners of Cruise Freek Forums and Ready 2 Go Travel would like to make it known that Jacqueline "Tina" Rinaldi Davis is NOT the author of a book about cruise vacations, nor is she the actress Tina Rinaldi, nor is she the model Tina Rinaldi.
They are, in fact, four different people that share the same name. Please make sure you have the correct Tina Rinaldi you are seeking! We have had several legal issues due to the fact that some members of Cruise Freek Forums have contacted other people who are named Tina Rinaldi, but, in fact, are no way associated with Cruise Freek Forums. We are now required to make this public information due to the nature of the accusations that have been brought against Cruise Freek Forums and Tina Rinaldi."
