• Hershel Parker says:
  • I finally got free of Melville and am working on what was wrong with hanging Tories in North Carolina. This morning I wanted to check something not in Holger Hoock’s index so I went to Amazon’s LOOK INSIDE feature. While I was there I saw “Parker” as the author of a review of SCARS OF INDEPENDENCE which I did not write and when I clicked on “Parker” I was told that the review had been “publicly posted by Hershel Parker.” Then I saw that dozens of reviews under “Parker” were also “publicly posted by Hershel Parker.” I called Amazon about the Identity Theft and got someone who promised to pass on my complaint to those who could help. This is more than a little upsetting, for I value my “brand,” and these pieces to not greatly exalt my reputation as a reviewer. Has anyone else experienced this sort of identity theft and, if so, what were you able to do about it?
