Wimbledon Estate Agent Employs Dirty Tactics

The owner of Wimbledon estate agent SW19 has been fined £15,000 after admitting to a ‘prank’, redirecting people visiting rival company Eddison White’s website to a porn site instead.

Eddison White was the victim of a prank in particularly poor taste.
Eddison White’s website is eddisonwhite.co.uk, however Luke Bennett, who owns SW19, purchased domain eddisonwhite.com to fool people.
Bennett and Eddison White owner Richard Eddison were friends and Bennet is quoted as saying:
“Of course I regret it. It was a foolish prank between old friends that went wrong.”
We doubt they’ll be going for a drink together any time soon.
