Default Weird News: Ebay Execs Charged With Terrorizing Couple

This is just bizarre and some really next level harassment.

https://heavy.com/news/2020/06/6-eba...newsletter&utm

The short version is that a journalist wrote some negative things about Ebay and some of the employees became very spiteful.

Quote:
Court records show that the accused sent a box of live cockroaches to the couples’ house, as well as fly larvae and live spiders; they ordered a preserved fetal pig to be sent but it never made it, and instead, a Halloween mask in the form of a bloody pig face showed up, according to court records.

The six are also accused of sending an issue of “Hustler: Barely Legal” pornography magazine to the couple’s neighbor’s home with the couple’s name on it.

They also sent a funeral wreath and a book on how to survive after the loss of a spouse to the couple’s home, the complaint said.

One of the victims started getting emails they did not sign up for from organizations like “The Communist Party,” “The Satanic Temple” and “Cat Faeries,” according to the complaint.

The couple was harassed via social media by the former eBay employees with threatening tweets and messages, according to court records. Prosecutors say the accused posted ads on Craigslist inviting people over for parties at the couple’s house that said come any time of night, with an emphasis on inviting college students and swingers. The posts included the couple’s home address.

Another ad said they were leaving the country and having a huge garage sale, according to the complaint.

In another Craigslist post, prosecutors say, the accused men and women wrote a Craigslist ad posing as the couple that said they were looking for anyone or multiple people “open to exploring threesomes, bdsm (bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, sadism and masochism) and cross dressing.

Come on now. If 2020 was to end today that'll mean 2021.

Read this yesterday, so bizarre. Who loves their company that much that they would engage in ongoing criminal behaviour because someone is badmouthing their employer? Six high level directors and managers too. I always wonder how collusion in crime begins.



"Hey Barb, we're going to harass these guys by sending them weird #### in the mail. You want in?"

"Sure thing! I'll talk to Jill at lunch and see if she's interested too. Will touch base later"

But a company is like a family! You have the company's back and the company will have yours.

At that time all of those under investigation were fired from eBay.
Well oops.

I worked for a company like that. It was a cult. I noped the #### outta there in less than 3 mos. Paid well and had great benefits but was scary AF.
