吃顿饭给了个差评，然后店主搜出来名字地址工作单位，跟踪谩骂找领导再往色情网站给做个广告，谁也不是吃干饭的
OTTAWA — A bad online review of a ByWard Market restaurant led to a nearly two-year campaign of harassment that included emails to the reviewer’s boss and board of directors boasting she was a “tiger in the bedroom,” a court heard Monday.
Elayna Katz testified she had posted a pair of negative online reviews about a bad experience she had at Mambo Nuevo Latino in May 2009 after the restaurant’s co-owner, Marisol Simoes, refused to meet with her or return her calls to discuss her complaint.
It was a short time later that Katz noticed a message in response to her bad review that contained her full name, phone number at work, address of her employer and job title along with suggestions she was “crazy,” “a terrible customer” and should be “locked up” in the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre.
Then, in June 2010 — more than a year later — an email was sent to the CEO and 75 directors of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, where Katz works in human resources.
Some of the directors are mayors and city councillors, Katz said.
“I am open to anything!” read the message, which was sent from a Gmail account in Katz’s name. “Couples, threesomes and group sex. Am especially into transsexuals and transgender (being one myself.) I am a handful in many ways and a tiger in the bedroom. Please message me back if you are interested in a good time!”
Two days later, a profile featuring a similar message was posted on adultcyberdating.net website. The profile used a wedding photo of Katz taken from another online site, Katz said.
“Is what’s written in that email true about you?,” asked prosecutor John Semenoff.
“No, it’s not,” said Katz, who described how the message — which was sent repeatedly from different email accounts using her name — left her embarrassed and ashamed.
Simoes, who co-owns Mambo with her husband, has pleaded not guilty to two counts of the rarely-used charge of criminal defamatory libel. She’s accused of creating three fake Gmail email accounts to send the message and creating the fraudulent dating profile.
Simoes, 41, and her husband also own another ByWard Market restaurant, Kinki, court heard.
Bell Canada security specialist Leslie Fitzgerald testified that the IP address of the account that posted the profile was registered to Simoes, although there was no way of knowing who was using the account at the time.
The website restaurantthing.com, where Katz posted her reviews, no longer allows comments about Mambo because of “continued abuse by the owner and others,” according to a message from the site’s administrator.
Instead there is a message signed by Simoes complaining about a “customer” — who Katz said at one point was identified as her before she had it removed — posting “every” derogatory review about her restaurants.
“I have been recently fighting back to prove a point to her and to hopefully scare her off, and you guys turn around and take away my postings of defence and leave her postings of pure lies and malintent!” the message says.
“You will see that there is no end to this war. She has pushed me to my limits and I will not allow her to further damage the reputation of my businesses.”
