The Metaphysical Advisory Board: Who We Are
From there we created the Metaphysical Advisory Board. A group of thirty (and growing) real customers from Paranormal/Metaphysical sellers on the web and on Ebay.
Our mission is to evaluate and review the claims and remarks being made against sellers. We investigate sources of information and determine if the claims being made against a seller is real or false. We also try to determine if the claims are being made by other sellers.
We have for too long sat back while claims and rumors spread across the internet. Some good sellers have been forced out from the community. We are still part of the large forum that was created by Creepyhollows, we watch it daily to keep an eye on Magnolia.
This was true until many of us began to recognize oddities and more aggressive attacks against other sellers of the Metaphysical community. We took a step back from the forum created by Magnolia and Ash and began investigating the claims that began appearing on their web site. We also began searching the internet for more information on these sellers.
It didn't take long before a picture was being painted that showed that many of the claims against these sellers were in fact false. They simply didn't make any sense. We questioned the sources of many of these claims and then questions the sellers that were being attacked. With many of them it was evident that these claims were not justified.
While investigating the claims coming in to the Creepyhollows forum, we received all that we needed to leave the forum and discount Creepyhollows as a trustful and legit seller. More that 4 of our members caught Creepyhollows posting a negative story against a seller under her forum account. Momentarily the story was deleted and reposted under a different name. That was the last straw for us as we believe in Magnolia. It is clear now that her goal is to badmouth other sellers and everything written on her site can not be considered real. There is no telling what was from a actual customer or from her.
The same is true for what has been written on the internet as well.
That is why we have been formed. That is why we must stand for the sellers that we love so much.
We are the Metaphysical Advisory Board.
The Group Behind the Mask:
We are the group behind the mask! We are the Metaphysical Advisory Baord. We have over 25 contributors that assist with our research and our postings. We all are named The Group:. We do not disclose our real names or our identities. Our members come from all over the world.
We seek truth. We seek honesty from our sellers. Everyone is welcome.
Please feel free to comment on our reviews and advisement. Sellers are not allowed to comment without talking to a member directly. You may reach us at

Case 15: Customer Complaint: Creepyhollows Attacks Other Sellers
Source:
Magnolia is a business women. Plain and Simple. She has to change with the times and when her business begins to go downhill, it makes perfect sense that she would attack sellers.
As one of our favorite sellers stated, Creepyhollows has lost her Powerseller Status on Ebay. This is true. We went to her Ebay page to look it up. She has lost her Powerseller Status and currently her business is quite a bit less than previous times.
For all of us who believed in you Magnolia you make us sick! Completely sick! You scammed all of us from our hard-earned money. You lied to each of us. When we formed our group we compared emails and notes with each other. Compared things that have been told to us by Creepyhollows. For many of us what she said to one person was different than the next. Each was twisted to fit the needs of a sell.
Our final Verdict on Creepyhollows is that you need to stay away from her. There is so much evidence against her, you really do need to be careful. Why would you give your money to a business woman that will tell you what you want to hear?
The Group has desided.

We do know that Magnolia likes to place the blame for her own faults on other sellers. We can tell you that no seller was involved in this account against her. She was simply caught copying mames off of the internet.

CreepHollows Brings Harm and Bad Luck: Case 9
Creepyhollows is a scam artist: Case 8
When I was a little boy I had a high school teacher who taught me a thing or two about the paranormal. I won't say hauntings don't exist but you'll never find the paranormal on Ebay or online stores. The greed and filthy tricks con arists have up their sleeves removes any paranormal activity and makes it a showdown between con artist and their quench for the green and I don't mean the go green kind.
Some of the con artists have set up shop off Ebay to further their bank accounts and scare the pants off the consumers who trust them. There's no harm in a little fun if it's fair market value and doesn't cost more than $20. Honest metaphysical dealers never charge more than $20. The big-ticketed con artists retain the services of a huge shill bidding organization. You might have noticed the huge bidding patterns some of the more noticeable sellers get . No, their paranormal items aren't anymore real than the little guy making $20 a pop. The difference is the involvement in the big business shill bidding organizations. Con artists use the buy it now options to make their haunted items seem more noteworthy. The cons report it to Ebay and mutually agreed not to carry out the sale and receive their listing fees back. It's a marketing tool the con artists are known for.
On a more serious note there are consequences for getting deeply involved in occult activity especially when it's centered on greed. We all know greed is evil and the higher the bids and the more friction it causes and costs it's inevitable that the thing you won will bring some kind of bad luck. The networks are flooding the airwaves with new paranormal series and it's entertaining. Some of the programs are based on real life paranormal events and that's why you don't see anyone in the series bidding or paying huge amounts of cash for haunted items. The con artists are no dummies and they bank on the fact that people are gullible.
With the rise of network shows con artists are hoping for more business but there's a lesson to learn from the shows consumers watch. There are no scenes airing consumers buying djinn or paranormal items. The programs have to have credibility and would never survive the cut if the producers took their cues from Ebay's haunted village or other laughable and sometimes harmful sites.
There are places that are truly haunted and don't cost a dime to visit and if that doesn't work for you I have some rocks in my back yard I'll sell you for $100 a pop. Seriously consumers shouldn't get involved with the greedy con artists and will avoid the bad luck that happens when greed is involved. If it sounds to good to be true it is unless you are one of the con artist raking in the dough and laughing all the way to the bank. Now that's evil.

Creepyhollows Proven Fake Case 7:
Creepyhollows is copying names and information from the internet and using it to sell spirits. Completely made up. Here is the link to creepyhallows site....
creepyhollows.com/djinnspirits.html
Look at the names of the spirits that are used as examples...
Now look at this site...

Wow, that is funny isn't it. That is the same list. A few names are missing, but not many...
She will probably change this as soon as she finds this so I will show the differences here...

Ok, so she has basically admitted to copying from the internet and making up spirits by doing this...but what else is there?
The UAMD and the Elitecollectors are a group of sellers with a multiple of sellers under different names selling the same things. I would have included the cached link to the site but it is not available yet.

Humm, that is interesting isn't it. It says here that it is.....for some programming code where I take the name of the person and
capitalize it properly (eg. bill smith to Bill Smith). However, I needed a list of exceptions so that I don't change McPhee into
Mcphee...'
Here is her address
PO Box 3 Canastota, NY 13032
Also, I just found a lot of information that she has copied else where as well.
here is the cached page so when she changes it you can still see that she copied everything
(((ROR REDACTED)))
I was looking for the names that she has posted in the first row. starting with 'A'ISHAH / IQBAL and ending with ZAFIRAH / ANIS
basically she copied these names from a site that has names with the meanings. I don't know which one because there are so many that have the same thing. look at her 'names'
see how she labels things 'female . male' blah blah blah
this is bull and i have been scammed. she is a fraud and the evidence is here
CLICK here to see why Rip-off Report, as a matter of policy, deleted either a phone number, link or e-mail address from this Report.
I was referred to this thread by another seller on ebay. Of course the first thing any business owner does is search their records of customers for someone named 'Mike' in 'San Francisco, CA'. Naturally the search yielded no result because we've never had a customer named Mike from San Francisco. Out of the 400+ collectors we've had only 1 who lives in San Francisco and she's not Mike. Nor were any of the other collectors in California, so whoever filed this report is not giving their true information.
It is no surprise to us to see something like this after all the bad press that has circulated about the Elite Society and UAMD since we joined forces back in April 2007. Prior to this date the Elite Society stood alone as an entity and the UAMD was its own separate entity for nearly a year prior. 'Solo' sellers, as they prefer to be called, on ebay have circulated as many lies and rumors as they can because in their minds if they aren't part of the group it must be bad. Even though the Elite Collectors opens its arms to ANYONE who wants to join. Some people just want to breed poison.
After reviewing this report it is quite obviously written by another seller who enjoys to inspire controversy and upset hoping to discredit sellers in hope of their own gain.
In regards to the list of names I find it quite comical the person who filed this believes the names are the names of spirits. Perhaps they aren't very well-educated in terms of literacy. The Arabic names mean what they mean whether they are on my site, a site on Google or even written in a book in sandscript. The names have a specific meaning such as the name 'Stephen' meaning 'Crown'. For examples sake the name 'Stephen' meaning 'Crown' would mean a djinn called for the purposes of royal blessings would be a Stephen-djinn. It says what it is meant to say... the name has a purpose.
As for this supposed buyer I find it very amusing that for someone so unsatisfied they didn't leave me negative feedback on ebay? Surprising because I have over 1,176 feedback with 317 being unique. So obviously collectors come back to us.
And yes, our address is PO Box 3, Canastota, NY 13032. I don't know why the person would submit this? You can get it straight from our website and you are welcome to send us any mail you wish.
After careful consideration of the facts I think any intelligent person would conclude this file was made by another seller trying to damage a glowing reputation. And I caution the seller who filed this report that negative energy is always sent back 3-fold.
After reading this rebuttal and original report if anyone has any questions they are free to contact us. You know what they say though... you know you've really become something special when everyone else out there is trying to drag you down. So thank you for thinking so much of Creepy Hollows that you spent your time doing this in attempt to discredit us... it only strengthens our opinion that we're doing something right and obviously collectors do too with 1,176 feedback with 317 beingunique.
Greeting to all: UAMD and False Statements
It has come to our attention that a campaign has been launched by an anonymous individual (or individuals) to slander the name of the UAMD. An email has been circulated calling many of ebay's finest sellers, both UAMD members and not, frauds. There are posts surfacing on various public forums that accuse our group of all kinds of shady practices, including shill bidding, lying about donating to charity and being a group of theives.
The UAMD usually takes the high road when such nonsense surfaces. We feel our feedback scores, customer service and magickals speak for themselves, and that our buyers are reasonable adults who can discern truth from fiction without us having to rebut everything said. However, in this case we have decided to respond due to the underhanded manner in which this slanderous campaign is being conducted.
First of all, the idea that someone is spending copious amounts of their hard earned money repeatedly buying items they believe to be fake is ridiculous. Furthermore, could someone really collect more than 100 buyers willing to 'poll' these items? Who are these buyers? Have any of YOU been polled? The readership of our Newsletter is vast, and I'd venture to say that a very large portion of everyone who buys with any regularity in the metaphysical category subscribes to our newsletter. Had there really been any sort of 'poll' conducted, I am confident our readership would have known about it.
The comments being posted about us are completely without fact. Pertaining to our formation, authenticity and customer service, our group was founded more than a year and a half ago, and is dedicated to the values that make the metaphysical category a wonderful place to shop. Our organization is a group committed to providing shoppers with a broad base of legitimate Metaphysical Sellers.
As most of you know, we have a rigid screening process for new members. Each person who applies for membership must meet the following criteria:
*Have been a seller in the metaphysical category for at least 6 months, and are an ebay member in good standing
*Have at least 50 feedbacks exclusive to the metaphysical category with a 100% positive rating, or 100 feedbacks with a 99% feedback rating.
*Strictly adhere to both ebay's rules of conduct and a high code of personal ethics, both to their customers and other ebay sellers
*Maintain exceptional customer service, both before and after the sale.
In the rare instances we have had customer complaints (only 3 have been reported to uamd.org in the past year), we have worked to solve the problem immediately, in one case actually removing a seller who received several complaints, violated our rules as well as the law...and low and behold, she is one of the ones who got a glowing rating! Coincidence? Perhaps.
Our organization has exceptional customer service, and there is always someone available at the UAMD customer service email address to assist our buyers with potential problems.
We have also been accused of engaging in Charity Fraud. I have only a brief statement on this accusation, because it is so easy to discredit. We do all of our charity work through ebay's own giving works, Mission Fish. They automatically deduct the portion of our proceeds for charity, so there is no possible way we could be involved in defrauding our buyers.
One blog suggested that using the keyword “haunted†automatically means a seller is a fraud-this is a ridiculous and completely unfounded generalization. Many buyers actively search for the keyword “Haunted,†and it is consistently in the top 10 most searched words in the metaphysical category according to the Ebay Pulse. Considering this, of course we use it as one of our keywords. This helps our customer base find us and our magickals.
The UAMD is well respected in our category, and all a potential customer has to do is view our nearly 100% positive feedback across the board. Together we have hundreds, perhaps thousands of customers who are pleased with their buys and who return again and again, and who consistently report positive results using ebay's Feedback system. To suggest that ALL these people are wrong, delusional, or just plain SCARED is ridiculous! We have high feedbacks, like anyone selling in ANY category on ebay, because we offer consistently quality products and great customer service!
To anyone reading these comments, emails or blogs out there, I encourage you to search under keyword UAMD on ebay, and view the feedback of our sellers. That is the TRUE testament to how legitimate our items are, for they are posted by REAL buyers and not just a few people who are likely OTHER SELLERS and trying to defame our organization. Additionally, you can view our website at www.uamd.org , and judge for yourself the validity of the information we provide to everyone free of charge.
Remember, it is very easy to start unfounded rumors and post vague and slanderous comments on an anonymous public board. We the UAMD stand behind our offerings and have our feedback open and our web page available for everyone to see exactly who we are. The person or persons who are attacking us in this 'poll' have offered you no proof, only claims that are completely without fact or validation to back it up.
