EFA Processing Takedown Request Makes Me Want to Examine the Facts

As a result of a takedown request this site received regarding a guest post here, I decided to look into the facts that were publicly verifiable. What you find below is not really an article, but the results of my research.

Please feel free to compare the facts below to the guest post Former Dextral Managing Director Shares His Bold Story About Ken Talbert and help identify any inconsistencies between the guest post and the information below.

Additional Data Supplied

Additional information and data had been submitted to us by Jason Spencer as he briefly mentions in his contributed article. We did not publish the attachments Spencer referred to in his guest post when he said “(I have attached docs)”.

Conclusion

Of the information that can be publicly verified I have been unable to locate information that EFA Processing objects to as “replete with falsehoods, misstatements of verifiable facts, and malicious lies.”

The offer still stands for EFA Processing to please provide some clarity and rebuttal to any fact they objected to in Jason Spencer’s guest post. And also to identify any information in this post that is wrong or incorrect.

The absolute last thing we want to do is publish anything that is incorrect. If anyone finds something that needs to be corrected, please use this form.

Sincerely,


You are not alone. I'm here to help. There is no need to suffer in silence. We can get through this. Tomorrow can be better than today. Don't give up.

Update February 14, 2013

A reader said: “I knew those names sounded familiar, Consumer Law Associates paid EFA Processing over 85 percent of their “legal fees” and the Consumer Law Associates “attorneys” Tom Panuthos and Will Grafton also worked in the EFA offices. Consumer Law Associates shut down to new clients last year, but I wonder if Ken Talbert and his “hedge fund” sued any of their clients. And who is Bill Talbert?”

I have no idea if the allegations made by the reader are accurate. The reader referred me to these court documents. They do mention a William R. Talbert and New Leaf Debt. – Source
