These pages look familiar, don't they?

The best ones I found were the title of this page http://www.chinapurepearls.com/gi_points_programme.asp and the content of this Merchant Policy page http://www.chinapurepearls.com/gi_merchant_policy.asp.

OMG - that is so blatant. It makes you wonder...

[Pearl_dreams]

At PearlParadise.com our best customers are our repeat customers.

Ha ha, these imposters didn't even know enough to plug their own name into that sentence!

Heads up, Jeremy-- another copycat website to deal with.
It must get tiresome.

[lisamla]

WOW! I can't believe someone would do that.

[airdancer]

Weird, all links seem to be dead - ie, you can't really order.

[Nicole]

They aren't just copying off of Pearl Paradise either, here they have copied from Pure Pearls.

Here's a new game, let's see if we can spot any other forum members' websites that they've ripped off.

Those cheeky devils! However, that will prevent us from buying from them - ever!

[Casey.R]

Omg! how cheap and sleazy of them. Even with the stolen pics the web site looks badley put together.
I also noticed they forgot to remove the Pearl Paradise part. Funny.

[knotty panda]

Glad you saw that, Nicole. I did too. Here's the one I saw where they didn't change the name. Pure Pearls has a trendy collection which they copied as well. I should have looked at the cufflinks section.

Where's the monthly special!

[salem]

I like this one, it even quotes Amanda Raab.http://www.chinapurepearls.com/bc_bridal_jewelry.asp lol


Bwaahaha

I like this one where they say, "to order, call Pearl Paradise, or you can e-mail Pearl Paradise." At least he won't lose any sales

Actually, I think they stole more from Amanda than they did Jeremy. But it sure is a hoot!

[salem]

I love this one, although I suppose it wouldn't be so apparent to those unfamiliar with this forum or PearlPAradisehttp://www.chinapurepearls.com/gi_customer_feedback.asp

I jus love how the first letter starts out..."Dear Jeremy". I really wish they would post the "about our Founder" page up.


P.S. this made my chuckle, but I won't post the link. Under their privacy policy, also lifted from PP is the statement, "PearlParadise.com takes fraud very seriously."


lol, yeah, like maybe they won'T appreciate you lifting entire sections of their website. Idiots. This was fun though, kinda like an Easter Egg hunt for NCNs.

[pattye]

OMG---I called the toll free phone number they list--it is Pearl Paradise!! Sooooo outrageous!!!

Pattye
so many pearls, so little time

[Caitlin]

So is the address.

Jeremy is in China and might miss this, but it is an awful exmaple of sellers thinking no one will notice!

Good for you guys. Go get 'em. The Pearl Police at work..........

I did just email Jeremy.

[CLICLASP]

I am terribly afraid of what I see,
You seems all of you to have a lot of sense of humor, that I am not sure I would have in the same situation

I would be very interested to learn about the way Jeremy thinks to protect his business against those practices.

I am in the process of brand mark registration and designs copyrighting, and setting encrypted page on the site,
and I hope it would be helpfull against those type of gangsters
