A friend of mine just emailed me about this website called Felonspy.com. The deal is that one can type in their address and a map can pop up with known ex-convicts in their area....Now I'm not talking about mild, petty crimes that these people have committed, but ones like rape, child molestation, kidnapping, stalkers and on and on...so here's the link. And crap, when I typed in my address, up popped about fifteen "criminals" of this nature You can check this website here. http://www.felonspy.com/search.html Then on the same website page are the words which you can see is Please help stop this horrible site for Promoting Dog Fighting In Your Neighborhoods So out of curiosity I clicked the link... I can't believe this yoho is actually promoting dog fighting!!! His website is called PuppyProfits.com and the title of his "article" is Dog Fighting Has Never Been More Fun or Profitable UH EXCUSE ME...does anyone see something wrong with this picture? The website link is here http://puppyprofits.com/ Part of his "article" states (Quote) I discovered canine sport fighting (sometimes called “dog fights” or “Dog Fighting”) through a friend and went to my first event. I was awestruck! What an amazing show of animal athleticism! Not only was it the most powerful and moving spectator sport I had ever witnessed, he was also making boatloads of money. It was then that he showed me the system he had developed to generate incredible revenue from this fun and exciting sport. Within 3 weeks, I had not only made my investment back but was making over $1200.00 a week TAX FREE! [/i] I plan to write every possible animal organization....they may not even know such a website exists and how this jerk is promoting dog fighting...I urge you to, if you're against dog fighting to write to the ASPCA, The Humane Society Of The United States, and yes, even PETA...anyone....Just do a google search and type in these organization names...they will all have a contact us link to write to them {warning: The links provided are NOT referral links...but links to the websites I'm discussing about for further information purposes}

thanks for writing this!! I'm not positive, but pretty sure for dog fighting you can/should write to the FBI, as well.

My face is a bit red...I just did a further investigation about that site and found out it's a hoax one...still, I think it should be reported as it still is glorifying dog fighting

LOL!! Yes, I have unlimited long distance, so I figured why not? I wanted to get to the bottom of it, without having to read all that garbage about dog fighting. I'm an idiot.

Oops! Pye, go check out the terms of service on the felonyspy.com. It's fake, too! I was all set to find out who's in my neighborhood, and it popped up saying I had to agree to the TOS in order to continue. I read thru, and the last one actually says it's fake.

i was thinking that one might be fake also........i live in an apartment complex with like 800 apartments plus another big complex across the street, i've lived in this area for about 8 years, and i KNOW there's WAY more criminals than the 7 or so that popped up on my map.

Was your map on felonyspy very accurate (as far as street layout and where things should be? I live in a apartment complex and it is the only one on the block, yet there is one pin in an area that I know is all commercial. Is this to show where felons live or where they work too? Within a 10 minutes drive either way there are only 3 pins (other than those 3 pins there is nothing for miles and miles), they all look to be in commercial areas.

Supposedly the dog fighting site isn't real (still shouldn't be up though) http://www.pitbull-chat.com/showthread.php?t=6038 http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/hoaxes/puppyprofits.asp And apparently there are a few other sites that are very similar that are connected to this one, all also fake. The phone number on the site listed for "information" also tracks to this weir site about child trafficking http://www.medicaladoptions.com/ Medical Adoption Services 7564 St. Vincent Place, Glasgow, D04 89GR. Telephone: 1-404-551-5587 On a blog that is all Spanish - about organ trafficking - the "Medical Adoptions" is based in Tijuana, but 404 is a US area cod; I think in Atlanta. Advice supposedly given out by the HSUS: [i] The best advice we can give at this point is for animal activists and concerned citizens to NOT respond to the puppyprofits.com website, and please do not pass the site on to your friends. However, you may want to contact the site’s Internet Service Provider (ISP) to lodge a complaint. Many ISPs have removed sites after complaints from site visitors after determining that the sites' content violates the ISP's User's Agreement. You can find contact information for the owner of the specified domain/hostname using the "WHOIS" lookup tool at www.DNSstuff.com.[/i]

I did not know about felonspy but I'm glad you mentioned it. I used it to check out the area around me where I live at college and there are a few people around here that I'm glad I know about. I know that I need to be careful walking around period, but knowing that I have convicts around here will help keep me more mindful about my surroundings.

Mmmm...after doing a little more investigating, I found out both websites are hoaxes...still think its sick that someone should put up a website about the dog fighting though, don't you?

I had seen your other discussion about this and I responded to it also. I think something needs to be done to the person who started the site too.

Un-effing-believable, pyewacket! I guess it really is true that you can find anything on the Internet! We live in a sick, sick world where things like this are allowed to happen. You can be sure that I will contact a few sources I know about that site. On the plus side, the felon site could turn out to be very helpful. Thanks for the link.

Hi pye, I am so degusted ans very angry at this person, he should be thrown in jail and left to rot, in the U.K we are against dog fighting and if any one was got, they will get a prison sentence or they will never be allowed to own pets, I wish the goverment would do someting to those people who have no respect for animals. He should back deported back to his own country. I am very angry. How can they get away with this.? Bright Blessings Tamara
