    I'm glad to see a design company take matters into their own hands. They were thoughtful enough to explain in detail, to helps me as a consumer know, not to do business with this company. I'm bet the design company will still has to incur a financial loss. But as a consumer, I've been warned that these guys from fitnesssf.com should not be trusted. No different that stars and reviews on Amazon.com

    Staying quiet on such matters may only help businesses like these succeed in ripping off more people in the future. As long as the statements were true, and is not a reckless disregard for the truth, then simply stating truth in this case should not be held for liability.
