Alright, so who is the author of this particular website?

OH what a nosey bunch ye are!

I know who they are yes, and there is more than one involved, but as far as revealing their identities, do you think that is the correct thing to reveal, look at the type of fakes and scammers they are bringing to people attention?

Some of these people they are dealing with aren't out of kinder garden!

I do understand what you are saying, but I think, nay, I know I would prefer to know who I am dealing with. I left the kinder garden many years ago!

No surprise! Anytime something related to titles or arms etc.. comes up on this forum, someone will want to lift the bonnet and see if the serial numbers match!

Well perhaps they should lift the "Bonnet"

On the ones extracting £29 95 or more, from in the main, "Innocent People" by scamming folks out of money. At least Fake Scots Titles is NOT asking them to dip into their pockets

Lets see £29.95 per Sq ft = £1.2 million per acer approx. The only conservation that is done by them is to their Bank Balance.

Not sure how my post implied a defense of the folks who sell stuff like that, It certainly is not. It was more of a comment about how some folks on this forum tend to react to anything on these subjects.
But I would hope that the folks that buy that into it don't take it seriously! I'm sure some do, but it's probably too late to help them!
As has been observed, most folks take this idea as tongue in cheek, and are pretty unlikely to ever visit their "property", or try to assert their 'privilege' !
People spend more money on dumber stuff than that every day, and I can't see making a big deal out of it, unless one just resents others having a laugh, or making a buck.

No No, I wasent saying you were defending them at all!

Some folks may well take it as tongue in cheek, however as a Scot I find it pretty degrading & insulting to our history & heritage not to mention what little title system we have left in Scotland. That's the problem with this scam, most people think its harmless.

I am with you one hundred percent on this and the far more important task of "outing" the more serious bogus title holders too, but I will have no truck with this cloak and dagger idea that appears to be the style of the "goodies" on the website mentioned above.

Alright, openly discussing tactics and strategy is a distinctly unwise course to take, but we are not talking MI5 here and not openly declaring who is involved is to my mind, unacceptable and lays the whole idea open to justified criticism.

For me, I shall continue just openly laughing at these poor deluded souls, most of whom appear, to me at least, to pick some damn stupid titles!!

On a lighter note, I did the sum too and I can think of one or two acres that would fit the bill a treat!

Put a sheep on it and they'll have herds and all!

I can understand John's hesitation to reveal the names of the designers; a number of years ago, an Irish genealogist was physically threatened by the followers of a known pretender for his work in revealing the latter's fake pedigree.
