Philosophy and ethics - who can write and who is responsible

Existential press - what does this mean??

LATEST UPDATE: Mar 15, 2008
VillagePRESS receiving regular information about Tourist accommodation scammers

with many receiving identical emails from the same scammer.

To simplify the problem facing an accommodation provider, each item VillagePRESS publishes will be under the (assumed) name of the scammer. While it is always possible that an accommodation provider is in error when they believe the proposed booking is a scam, it is the responsibility of the reader receiving a similar email, to make their own decision. Should an error occur and the sender is real, please notify VillagePRESS and we will publish a correction directly over the original file.

THEREFORE, this message precedes each scam reported ... this page dealing with a scammer calling him(her?)self as.......
