In response to Ben Ocean: What to do about unscrupulous web masters...?

Make the situation work for you.. This is what I did.

I made up a comprehensive list of all the offenders I could. I kept these in
a file to show to prospective clients when needed. Especially good if you
are in competition with the offender:-)

Secondly I got masses of free publicity from sending press releases to the
local media about the practices of unscrupulous web developers. My local
evening newspaper ran an article about how not to be ripped off when
starting a web site. I was quoted and got business as a direct result

This did not make me popular with some people as you can imagine. But what
do I care? It struck a blow against the rip off merchants and got me more
business. Is this something you could consider implementing?

Hope this helps
Andy
