Hity88, Hiann88 or whatever usernames you are using please read

Hity88 and Hiann88 from Honolulu, HI it has come to my attention, that you have been entering blog contests under multiple accounts. I know you have come from Online-sweepstakes.com. I should out you there, but I wont. I know you are one and the same person, because of my feedjit tells me where everyone comes from. If you were 2 separate people, it would have 2 entries. I have a policy of one entry per household, as most blogs do. I have deleted your comments, and you are not welcome to enter any of my blog contests. I abhor cheating, and will NOT tolerate it.

I dont remember which blogs I saw that you were entering with multiple names, but if I google your two usernames, hity88 and hiann88, they will come up. Shame on you for cheating like that.

EDITED TO ADD:

Some people on Online-sweepstakes.com seem to think I am bashing OLS. I am in no way shape or form bashing OLS. I was just stating that I saw that they came from OLS on my feedjit tracker. OLS is my most favorite place in the world. I would never talk bad about it. For those of you that dont know, I am MistySunrise on OLS. I am sorry you took my post as an OLS bashing. That was not my intention.

  1. Cheaters never win and Winners never cheat! I will never understand why people cheat! I have seen it on many blogs -the cheating. Good for you for calling them out. (I am an OLSr also)

  2. I dont even know how they keep up with all the cheating. It takes a lot of time to enter blogs, doing it to right way. I dont see how this person has the time to enter on 4 different accounts!

  3. It's really pitiful that someone would cheat on blog giveaways. There's a good article at Two Classy Chics about blog cheating, too. She has some pointers for bloggers on what to watch for.

  5. Yea one of the mods removed the thread on OLS probably because they don't want to admit there are cheaters on the site even though you have proof.
    I don't need to cheat because I have always been lucky to win a lot of stuff hence my email username .

  6. Obviously hity88 (Richard Titanic) and hiann88 (Anna Titanic) you havent read this, you are still trying to enter my giveaways! I have had to put my comments on moderation, thanks to you. I guess I will have to send a message to facebook to you now, as you have not read the twitter messages I sent. *Sigh*

  7. This is HITY of Honolulu. I'm sorry I didn't notice your Limit of one person per household entry. statement. We surely wouldn't want you to think we purposely did that. Most sweeps are not that restricted. Especially for this type of prize.

  8. hity, I am sorry, but I dont believe you. 99% of blogs are ONE entry per household. That is the norm. Your twitter and hiann88's twitter is almost EXACTLY the same. Word for word, only minutes apart.

    Same for the facebook pages. They are almost the same word for word. Also if you were two different people, it would show up twice on my feedjit counter. I show up everytime I come to check my contests. You show up only once, but with comments from BOTH of your accounts.

    It looks like you have been around blogs long enough to know the rules, so you arent pulling the wool over my eyes. Sorry, I dont buy it.

  10. I can't believe she's been cheating on other blogs as well!How can someone keep track of all of those different accounts?

  11. I dont know Darla. They must think us bloggers are stupid. I looked, even today they are still cheating. I wish there was a way I could get this out to other bloggers. I have reached out as far as I can, by tweeting, facebooking, and here on my blog.

  12. I have been entering literally hundreds of giveaways and sweeps and only recently (within the last month) have I even found single entry per i/p or household. Look, I am a God fearing Christian, the treasurer of my church and on my Church Council and don't need you to believe me that it was a real oversight. Our Lord knows. And He will judge both you (accusers and me). Let he is without sin cast the first stone.

  13. Like I said, when both your twitter and facebook pages, each have the same exact word for word on the hiann88 and hity88 accounts, that is what threw up a big red flag.

    I dont care who you are, or who you work for, or what you believe in. All I see is what I stated above.

  14. Ugh,this person is still doing this!
    is letting the blog owner know, the right thing to do if i see them entering a giveaway?
    Obviously yes,ok i just answered my own question,thanks!!

  15. Well its still going on, I just noticed it at another giveaway I entered (same tweets/same everything but different user names) and it Really makes me wonder why other blog owners havent banned them yet, its just beyond me that they (she) keeps trying to get away with all this cheating, why are people so greedy??
    all I can say is Karma will get them
    thanks for your post above, I appreciate it when blog owners are honest and let us know whats going on,
    cheating is wrong in so many ways !!!

  16. We caught them cheating on our blog too and you can read our post about it at http://twoclassychics.blogspot.com/2011/05/cheating-will-not-be-tolerated-on-our.html

  17. Wow, they are still at it? I was wondering what was up. I noticed a lot of people were coming to my blog to look at this post.

  18. They are still at it! They were doing Double Entries at Giveaways on the Quick Tattletails Blog just last night. Unbelievable!

  19. It bites when people enter under different names/email addresses, etc. I changed my comment format to help me narrow down IP addresses, but it definitely adds a lot of time to picking a winner AND it takes away from my own enjoyment of giving things away.

  20. What is their user id on OLS as I'd love to give them a pice of my mind!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Erin, I cant remember what their OLS username is. I think it was the hity88 username

    ReplyDelete
  22. Unreal...thank you for bringing their names to our attention. I will definitely be on the lookout.

  23. I guess I'm in that 1% that doesn't limit it to 1 per household. :)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Yes Thank you, I actually saw them on my blog to and thought it fishy.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Thanks for letting me know. I am going to check my blog now too.

  26. Thanks for clearing up the OLS thing. OLS sweepers are a great bunch.

  27. I can't believe she had the nerve to show up and say something like that. Cheaters are terrible! And with a Twin sister, they are making it seem as if me and sissy are cheating! Sure we enter the same one unintentionally but never cheat! Why would we cheat when there are tons of other giveaways out there? Cheaters are making it hard to enter honest and true.

  28. Angela, I know you and your sister would never cheat. :) I am glad to see you two are back on OLS. :)
