More on the link spamming and commercial advertising. Example http://hardyboys.bobfinnan.com/hbpb.htm is just a list of titles that all have links to Amazon. All of the books summaries were copied from Amazon. Every HB Digest title, Casefiles title, Clues Brothers title, Supermysteries title, Ultra Thriller title and so on has a link to Amazon and all summaries were copied from Amazon. Does that tell anyone something?

Yep, tells us you're lying! Here's a link to Amazon's Ultra Thriller page (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0671756613/ref=nosim) and not a summary to be seen. Ditto for everything else. BTW, thanks for all the links to my site, I'm sure it will increase readership! :) --FWDixon 14:23, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

Oh Really? Lets try a few just on the Undercover Brothers.

Running On Fumes (#2) - 4/05

There is no real info on the company from

Finnan: Mission: Investigate and determine the power behind a possibly dangerous Utopian community with potential plans for criminal activity within the oil industry. Amazon: Mission: Investigate and determine the power behind a possibly dangerous Utopian community with potential plans for criminal activity within the oil industry.

Boardwalk Bust (#3) - 4/05

Finnan: Mission: Investigate and put a halt to the recent rash of jewelry store robberies. Potential danger on the ground and in the air. Amazon: Mission: Investigate and put a halt to the recent rash of jewelry store robberies. Potential danger on the ground and in the air.

OH! You only plagiarized SOME of the summaries?

There is no real info on the company on The Unofficial Hardy Boys web site. This is link spamming. The link to Penguin Group is all that is needed here. 69.205.1.91 12:21, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Puchased

Regardless of link spamming, perhaps someone with a more credible account than myself can fix a typo - 'puchased' desires an 'r'. --darklilac 16:00, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
