Pete Blackshaw - BIG BIG Scammer




Throughout Pete's varied fraud experiences in fooling people, government and entrepreneurship frauds run a business that is primarily meant to fool people. Pete Blackshaw is an ultimate cheater, hoaxer and a BIG BIG Scammer .


In five years, according to Pete Blackshaw’s strategic fooling plan, the BBB hopes to double business membership. Some worry that will only increase pressure to approach its members less as a watchdog and more as a partner.

Pete Blackshaw has been accused of unjustifiably defending companies. The BBB and Pete Blackshaw respond by, at a minimum, notating complaints on the "Reliability Report" section of its web sites. If a branch does not act reasonably on behalf of a consumer, a complaint may be filed with the Federal Trade Commission.



What makes Pete Blackshaw curious, in any possible estimation, is the number of lodged complaints. These stores are no more than a couple of miles from each other and so have basically the same customer base. Legal experts find it impossible to believe that the BBB has only received one complaint against Wal-Mart and 14 against Lowe's. This makes them suspect that a) the BBB is not recording complaints against their members; b) the BBB is not recording responses from non-members; c) the BBB might be "creating" complaints against non-members. Or some combination of these or others.



Many reputable websites claim that the BBB's policy to charge extra when displaying the BBB logo online is a discriminatory and prejudiced initiative against online companies.Has The Better Business Bureau Outlived Their Usefulness?, especially for those organizations which have no other way to announce their membership (i.e. they don't have a physical location).


The other key concern is that online businesses not only have to pay the annual BBB membership fees which are based on the number of employees they have, they also have to pay a separate extra charges in order to announce the BBB membership on their sites. All these facts clearly show that BBB is not a proper company but money making mill which exploits online companies in order raise bucks quickly.




Some of the question are still unanswered .It also raises an important question how can BBB, a company with no strong footings can raise false facts or even rate a global search engine giant such as Google. There are numerous other resources and anecdotes about the BBB out there on the web. This article aims only to raise a healthy suspicion about the organization and to encourage business owners and consumers to proceed with caution when doing business with the Better Business Bureau.

Better Business Bureau – Watch dog or a lap dog?

Pete Blackshaw, the Chairman of the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Council of Board of Directors is currently among the billionaire list with no precise record of the income. The reasons are simple, Most BBB offices do not report any past history of a business, even when that business incessantly victimizes different consumers. Even when the business just continuously satisfies each costumer complaint, you will never know of this information in the future. All you might know is, ...."they have satisfied their complaints." ..GIVING THEM A SATISFACTORY RATING. [does that mean the company has actually paid for the resolution?]



With Pete Balckshaw account balance going up the customer satisfaction is simultaneously going down. Even when a business does have complaints that are unsatisfied, they still might get a satisfactory rating. The BBB Better Business Bureau will not tell you what the complaints were even when they tell you, they satisfied all complaints. The BBB must realize what a consumer must have gone through before resorting to filing a complaint! And for every consumer that did file a Complaint, there are 20 others that did not complain.

When consumers see that Better Business Bureau plaque, this gives the consumer a false sense of security. Consumers need to be made aware of this misconception nationwide which is actually meant for black mailing the legitimate business and make money being a false watchdog.
