Identity fraud
Creating a false identity on the Internet is easy. I did it yesterday when I posted as Friends Of Clay in a comment here on this blog. All I had to do what type in the Friends Of Clay name and copy and paste the URL for their blog, then hit the post button. Voila - it made it look like Friends Of Clay posted on my blog when in actual fact it was me.
Look at the My Space profiles. There were so many pseudo Clay Aiken and Kelly Clarkson profiles on line one didn't know which, if any, were real. Many young people were tricked into believing they were actually talking to either Clay or Kelly. All the Clay Aiken profiles have since been removed and there is now only one legitimate Kelly Clarkson profile.
As long as you have a valid email address, you can create any Yahoo identity you'd like. No one checks and no proof is required. The same is true for most of the meet up/hook up sites on line. No one asks to see your drivers license for proof you are who you say you are.
Identity fraud occurs when a false identity or someone else’s identity is used. It's happened to a few of us who post here or on the Friends Of Clay blog and on the Clay Aiken message boards. Our names have been stolen and used on some gossip blogs to make some rather nasty statements thereby making those of us whose identities were fraudulently used look bad.
When you see an identity being used that doesn't fit with what you know about a person, chances are excellent that identity fraud has occurred.

Rumor has it that stalkerboy's latest "hook up site" info. was created by none other than stalkerboy himself AND someone caught him in the act. Apparently, there is proof, too.
So, stalkerboy, you lose again.
People who have read anything I've posted know I would not change my beliefs no matter what stalkerboy and his minions say.
I have been 100% supportive of Clay since this all began. Nothing stalkerboy or anyone else can say will change that.
yeahthat said...

Then it's not a rumor, is it.
You know, considering groucho doesn't believe his princess Kelly I can't help wondering why he isn't denouncing her all over the internet. According to him she's lied too.
Yeah, I guess you're right...I guess I called it a rumor because I wasn't the one who saw it.
Now, I have since the info. has been posted!!! Bwhahahaha!
A rumor no more!
I don't get the whole thing about Groucho, either...evidently he's the biggest hypocrit of all...his "truth" only applies to specific people.
OMG, Kelly is a liar too.hee
I still can't believe groucho has a real wife. It must really, really suck to be her. YUCK!
I am posting under other because I just deleted my blogger profile. I was one of the few people on JP's website that made an effort to try understand both sides of the story. When JP decided to make the blog private and available to registered users only, I believed he was being genuine: that he wanted to stop the racist, sexist, and homophobic comments directed to certain posters. However, he has made his blog a free-for-all, again. I'm sick and tired of his lies. He seems to crave attention. Maybe he wasn't telling the entire truth this whole time. Maybe he has been hurting someone who doesn't deserve to be hurt. Although I'm not a Clay fan, I believe every human being has a right to be treated with dignity. JP's antics are losing him credibility - at least with me. Count one more person who has been lied to and deceived by Mr. Paulus. Boy, was I naive! Good luck to Clay, I hope he truly does come out of this as unscathed as possible. Good luck with your blog, guys. It really is lovely! Thanks for allowing me to post!
Gia, if there are racist and homophobic comments being made, they are not being made by Clay fans nor anyone from Adam and Leon's boards.
We don't operate on hate...Paulus and his minions do...they take people's screennames with no guilt and post awful, hateful vile stuff.
He is truly, truly ill.
John just likes to stir the turd. I see he had no problem reposting the supposed comments made by fans. It he were truly against it, he would not have repeated them. You won't find that kind of language here or on the FOC.
gia, pardon me but I don't understand what there is to understand about "both sides" of the story. There is the truth and there are JP's lies, Groucho's lies, Emach's lies and Shannon's lies. Somehow they all joined forces to help spread nothing but lies. There are no 2 sides to truth, there is simply the truth.
Truth is that Clay Aiken is straight, he's gentle but can be pissy (very sexy) and he's never met John Paulus.
Truth is that Clay was in another state when JP had his imaginary tryst.
Truth is that there was no Boston school teacher and the particular night in question for that imaginary person was also another impossibility.
Truth is that JP or someone photoshopped the webcam pics in the Star using Thom Yorke's photo as a template and piecing in some of Clay's features. It was a terrible and obvious photochop job.
Truth is that JP typed up those fake IMs
EVERYTHING Paulus has told you people is a lie and the lies were expounded upon by some old haters who have been around a long time trying to bring Clay down. These others mentioned are scared to death that Clay is going to outsell Kelly and Ruben again and they are determined to ruin his reputation before the CD is released to stunt his sales. These vile creatures managed to find each other and I hope they rot in their swill together.
Almost forgot: gia, Emach and her Soulful Ruben Sisters are the majority of people who use race and very foul language in their posts pretending to be Claymates. Those gals have been doing it for 3 years...it's THEIR MO.
Groucho is a major homophobe, although I believe the Sistahs get involved in a little of that type of posting as well. He's probably having a ball posting as Claymates because he gets to slam us being himself and JP half the time and he gets to slam gays as well...he's sincere in it but makes you think he's on JP's side. That's HIS MO along with references to David Koresh and other cult leaders. That's how we knew he had a hand in helping JP with the NE story.
Pathetic, huh?
You can see everything in someone's eyes. When you look at Clay's, they are clear and bright and sparkle when he sings and smiles. That's the sign of a man who has nothing to hide. Look at JP's eyes; they are so void of anything that it's just plain eerie. There is no personality, no emotion, no soul, no conscience.. the only way to describe his look, in my opinion, is pure evil. The first time I saw his photo I got the willies and I've been unable to shake that feeling since.
I would hope that people would start figuring out how crazy this peon is. Unfortunately, he feeds a section of society that lives for this type of hate.
I find it unfortunate that people are being made to look like fools at the hands of the biggest fool there is.
Oh well...sucks to be them.
The ironic thing about this race crap being posed out there is that Clay and Ruben, and the two moms (during AI) were the epitome of a race-free relationship. That caught my eye. Ruben was sweet when he said something like "Clay's my dawg, man Clay's fans love that dude". I find myself wondering if the fans have driven a wedge between the two of them. I doubt it, but I wonder if they still talk like they used to. The two of them - 1 black and 1 white - exhibited to me what the American dream was all about. So sad. And now JP is trying to unearth all of that.
Emach is a vicious bitter woman and she will never forgive or forget that her idol was trumped by Clay Aiken. Ruben is a regular in the 'whatever happened to' columns. Too bad she and her ilk didn't spend as much time supporting Rube as they did attacking Clay.
After reading everything that has gone on the last 5+ months, I thought it only fitting that I post this quote by the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Democratic Senator from New York:
"Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but they are not entitled to their own facts."
Sooner or later, the world will see that JP's "facts" weren't facts, just JP and his dilusional mind trying to grab some attention.
Until then, I just keep repeating that quote and thinking that JP's time is coming and he's gonna get his, but good and soon!
The most telling comment in this is that this has been going on 3 years.
Take another look at Clay's appearance on AI5. Those 2 minutes pretty much became the focal point of the show. The audience ROARED when Clay appeared. Has any of this crap hurt him? No, because love will always overcome.
I'm done with stalkerboy and his minions. All my attention is gonna go to a winner - Clay Aiken.
"Ain't no stoppin us now; we're on the move!"
A friendship that began on Idol continued long after the confetti had found it's place in the dumpster. Ruben and Clay had it all in the beginning. They were seen together everywhere in interviews and on the charts.
Aside from the fan and board wars, there were a couple of things that occurred that were beyond any fan's control.
There was the lawsuit; then the counter law suit. There was the unfortunate incident of the drugs on the bus; the no-shows at appearances. Certain events unfortunately postponed an album, but should the other artist have been punished as a result?
I think a lot of frustrations were taken out on others.
