This is the first time I have been to this web site. I have been spending most of my time at another cruise chatting site. Just wanted to let all of you know that mka and spdavid are working together and appear to be from Byzance tours. They take other posts (I have seen the original post on the other web site) and doctor up the part about how great byzance tours are, then post it everywhere. There have been warnings on 2 other cruise chat areas! spdavid has specifically posted before, but mka is using a different name, with the same tricks. Another name to watch out for is peterhart. I think the rest of the review is legitamate. Just a warning!!
Cali1, you are right I have seen similar posts made by dennis, cfeld, pecos in another forums. He has not cruised so far.
See folowing post about Dennis's post on cruisemates.

This is my trip report I posted on 6-30 on the Seabourn board on Cruisecritic.com. This guy took my review and slightly mangled it and posted it as his own. I would recommend not asking him questions as he did not do this cruise, I did. He also reposted my review as his on the other website. I emailed him and asked him why he stole my trip report and he did not reply.
As a cruise writer who works hard on the reviews I post, I know it is very disturbing to have someone steal your work. I have been the victim of this act and unfortunatly,this deceptive tactic seems to be something that is becoming commonplace on the internet.
If, in fact, the gentleman in question did indeed "borrow" someone elses review in order to promote his services, shame on him and thanks for bringing this to our attention. Nancy
