This is a normal post Sort of a good idea
Except as is pointed out it's quite easy to see a pattern.

Better would be to insert the reference to the website randomly, e.g. after the 1st, 2nd and 3rd characters.

Password: utmea

Facebook password: uftamcea

Makes it much less obvious what you're doing.

I tihnk the point of this article isn;t for someone to blindly follow what;s been written but to invent their own way of using the websites url mixed with a base password to come up with an easy to remeber combo.

eg.

pass12 and b3ta could become anything from pass12b3 to passta12 to pass12cunts

This is a link post How to leave really negative feedback on Ebay I made this!
After reading Scary Duck's Fab letter of complaint I was reminded of something I used to do. I never thought one line was enough to explain why I had left negative feedback on ebay so I direct people to my site for the full story.

Warning 1) This is probably only of interest to people who use ebay

Warning 2) There are many many many words.

I had to deal with a seller doing similar things for similar seemingly insignificant amounts. Had a look at the feedback and found that they had been very distressed that their packages kept getting lost in the post. They'd been getting lost in the post for at least 18 months, with the 'Christmas rush' invoked, the 'Easter hiatus', the lesser spotted "Summer holiday malaise', etc.

She did eventually send a 'replacement' (I sent it about a months ago, guv!) and when it arrived - bear in mind that the item was three live water snails - they were wrapped in damp toilet tissue inside a childrens' jewellery box. She also begged to be given positive feedback.

"See that battered old roller skate? The one with only three wheels someone's just pulled out of a swamp? That's your car, that is. A car constructed from tinfoil, sticky tape and the tormented souls of the dead."



1. Hire a car

2. Discover that it is, in fact, constructed from tinfoil, sticky tape and the tormented souls of the dead

3. Ask for your money back

4. Ask for your money back again

5. Resort to sarcasm, LOLs and TEH INTARNETS with references to: Alexei Sayle, Back to the Future, History Today, Jeremy Clarkson, Adolf Hitler, the Incredible Hulk and ...err... Cheryl Cole.

"I bet you've never driven any car, knuckles white against the steering wheel, screaming "AAAAARGH! NO BRAKES!" at a red-faced, uncomprehending cyclist sweating like a transvestite in Marks and Spencer.

Just keep the pressure on - you will get your money back eventually, especially if you start adding reasonable charges for your time, effort and out-of-pocket expenses in dealing with the problem (i.e. postage and stationery costs)

also - don't wait to write to Trading Standards and your credit card company, do it anyway and CC the car company in. Your credit card company is ultimately liable as you actually purchased the service from them!
