Fake online identities and business inquiries

If you own an online business, you know very well that a percentage of your queries through your website will be those of your competitors. You probably worried about this and maybe even made it a little worse for yourself. Is there a way to catch them? Yes, in fact, we used to catch them all the time, sometimes they try to get tough! Using very common names and free email accounts too. You can often catch them and they try again and again. Now that I'm retired I don't care anymore, do I usually just tell them I'm aware or don't return the email? You could try that approach. Also, all business owners have to worry about bogus inquiries coming from college students pretending to be buyers in their inquiries. In general, they do not mean any damage, since they are most likely doing commercial projects. I just think they should tell us in advance, because it takes a long time to respond to people. We need better ethics at university. http://globalpassportandcounterfeitbills.com/ Did you know that if you are selling a franchise, business opportunity, or online sales of some sort that you will occasionally get government regulators who pretend to be buyers too? I think it's the one that bothers me the most. Think about it, your own government is wasting your time lying to you, costing you money and somehow believing you are helping the consumer. Which is exactly what they are trying to do, verify and make sure it is a legitimate business.
