			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ben Behrouzi has hit an all time low for himself and his new startup LeapFish in front of Silicon Valley and the world. After Techcrunch <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/11/20/leapfish-launches-another-meta-search-engine-no-one-will-ever-use/#comments" target="_blank">declared LeapFish</a> as <strong>&#8220;another meta search engine no one will ever use&#8221;</strong> his employees were caught red handed making shill comments praising LeapFish and calling it &#8220;genius&#8221;. Classic. This puts him on the fast track to destroy yet another brand in addition to his past casualties, ePerks, Brabus Ventures, and iHype.</p>
<p>Now Techcrunch knows what the rest of us have known for years. Ben Behrouzi, LeapFish and most of Ben&#8217;s companies are spammers. I&#8217;ve personally received ePerks and LeapFish spam and or phone calls. A former ePerks employee confided in me that Behrouzi employees are given free reign to use whatever techniques are necessary to hit their numbers.</p>
<p><strong>Former Ben Behrouzi ePerks employee that wished to remain unnamed:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I graduated from USC, I never imagined I would be spamming for a living.</p></blockquote>
<p><span id="more-566"></span></p>
<p>TechCrunch points out the obvious that LeapFish provides no real value to searchers. LeapFish claims to be the &#8220;first multi-dimensional information aggregator and search portal in the world&#8221;. In reality it is simply a search engine aggregator similar to <a href="http://www.dogpile.com/" target="_blank">DogPile</a> (launched in 1996), <a href="http://addictomatic.com/" target="_blank">Addict-o-Matic</a>, or the hundreds of others that exist.</p>
<h2><strong>Bens&#8217; Fake TechCrunch Comments are a Thing of Beauty</strong></h2>
<p>After one shill comment after another, it becomes clear that most of the comments are simply fake and obviously made by Ben Behrouzi and or his employees.</p>
<p>When we pointed out that spamming blog comments is a Ben Behrouzi / DotNext Inc. / LeapFish hallmark, TechCrunch confirmed that in fact, all of the comments were coming the same IP address. This IP address was later banned.</p>

<p><strong>Ben Threatens BrokerScience and Others Yet Again&#8230;.</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Also for the record you and your readers should know that, the trace richardson and lord matt commenting above are rogue bloggers looking for attention, traffic and destruction of others. They are motivated by a disgustingly shameful agenda that clearly manifests itself in their comments above and have a long history of stalking our people and spreading fabricated news in mass quantities. The company will be addressing each of their malicious activities soon. &#8211; Ben Behrouzi, CEO Dotnext, Inc. LeapFish</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Welcome to Ben&#8217;s World of Fail:</strong></p>

<p><strong>Techcrunch Writer, Robin Wauters Finally Bans One of The IP Addresses:</strong></p>
