Buying flowers? Do not buy Serenata Flowers.
I don’t do flowers. Obviously. But for those of you that do I’d like to bring your attention to a little experiment over at Peters place.
He has had a number of bad comment spamming experiences with the above company (as described at that link and the story above it). I fucking hate comment spammers but generally they are transient websites and hard to pin down as genuine businesses, so revenge is both difficult and essentially pointless. This case is different however.
Peter seems to think that if enough of us link to the above post, then when potential customers are searching for them on Google, they will see the really shite reviews first. Hence using the Internet for what it was intended, i.e. mass protest for people like me who do not want to actually leave the sofa.
At least, I think that is what he is doing.
If this is all some elaborate extortion racket then I will not pleased. Not without a cut, anyway.
So, Serenata flowers, they’re a bit naff and that.
