ePerks, the brand and company that exposed the world to Ben Behrouzi and his unethical business practices and inability to deliver services as promised has been hacked.
The ePerks brand had all but been abandoned in embarrassment when Ben Behrouzi and company lost their failed bid to take down blogger Vlad Zablotkyy’s blog, GoBeyondMLS.
When ePerks was exposed and Ben Behrouzi’s unethical business practices were given national attention in 2008, Ben changed the name of his original holding company from Brabus Ventures to DotNextInc due to the unflattering attention. Additionally, ePerks was no longer listed on the DotNextInc website as a Behrouzi owned company and his profile was removed from ePerks.com. Other companies listed in Behrouzi’s portfolio are Ziddler.com (landing page claimed Ziddler was “Launching Summer 2009″) which failed to launch and the ill fated iHype.com, another company that never got off the ground. Today Ben Behrouzi is at the helm of LeapFish, another company that expands on ePerk’s very questionable business model.
The next thing is to offer IPO
.
Being hacked in the future is the least of LeapFish’s worries in my opinion.
The funny thing about e-perks site is that it gets hacked, they clean it up and then it get’s hacked again. They appear to pay no attention unless some one points out to them that they are hacked.
Talk about the un-midas touch. “Ben” should try running for public office. He’d fit right in.
