I got this e-mail last week as well, and it was very very nasty, so much so that I pretty much guessed this was a fake. Two disgruntled ex-employees of the MVNO Amp’d sent a fraudulent e-mail to company officials and outsiders that alleged financial shenanigans and sexual antics inside the LA-based start-up…and now Amp’d has filed a lawsuit against the two employees.
The fake e-mails was purported to have been sent by Derek Andersen, the company’s CFO, and was titled “Amp’d Mobile Confessions”…rest of it is unprintable.
In the complaint, Amp’d said that the “publications of false and disparaging statements have induced and will continue to induce companies, customers, and investors not to deal with Amp’d . . . As a result, Amp’d has suffered pecuniary losses and irreparable injury to its business reputation among current and potential investors.”
