Friends of Desert Hot Springs is NOT associated with that other website using my name.

I received a phone call from a friend to ask me if I started up my Friends of Desert Hot Springs website again. I told him no. He said well somebody is using your name then.

I started to look but when I typed freindsofdeserthotsprings.com. I did not see what he was talking about. Then he forwarded me an email (email copied below).

Below is the email that I received. If anyone knows these people please ask them to not use my name on their website and to have the decency to take ownership of what they write using their own name.

Hello friends. We are a small, dedicated group of people who believe in Desert Hot Springs. We know and trust in the fact that this is our city……the peoples’. We no longer will sit back and fall into passivity. We no longer will wait and hope for the best. We will have our voices heard. We will celebrate our progress over the last few years and will surpass it over the next few. We, and only we, will hand pick our representatives. We will not be swayed by gossip. We will not be tripped by the snare of rumor. The days of the same old are gone in Desert Hot Springs. We are reclaiming the keys to city hall.
If you wish to volunteer and become a part of our friendship, or if you can help with some of your skills or talents, please email us at fodhs2013@gmail.com

Email sent May 1, 2013 from the website friendsofdhs wordpress by fodhs2013@gmail.com and calling themselves The People which turns our to be Karl Baker and people I don't know named Tim Brophy, Paul Clark, Robert Bell Jr., and Kelly Wisnewski.
These people are NOT associated with http://friendsofdeserthotsprings.com

  

I know who Karl Baker is. I don't know the other people. I don't know who Tim Brophy is or Paul Clark or Robert Bell Jr., or Kelly Wisnewski but I ask them and Karl to put a disclaimer on their new website that says "Not Affiliated With Friends of Desert Hot Springs" and stop using my website name Friends of Desert Hot Springs.

I am going to leave this page up to make sure people are not confused by someone trying to impersonate me and being very deceptive by using my name for their very negative comments.

Friends of Desert Hot Springs is NOT associated with that other website and I do not want anyone to be confused by that.

I have been away from Desert Hot Springs for 3 years except to visit friends. It looks like progress has been made. I love the new Health and Wellness Center and its Mid-Century Modern Architecture and I know there are other good projects coming so that is good news for Desert Hot Springs. I remain positive about the city.

But using my name, my website name and negative commentary is not right and these people at the very least should have the integrity to stand behind their name and not mine. Before they were anonymous. Now they at least let everyone know in their email who they are. But they are NOT Friends of Desert Hot Springs.

If anyone is interested you can see what I am doing these days at my other website gabrielking.com and thank you for taking the time to read this.

Sincerely,
Gabriel King
