I Need My Casey Serin Fix

I admit it, I'm a Casey Serin junkie. I've been reading his blog, IAmFacingForeclosure.com religiously, amazed at the train wreck that is Casey's finances and perplexed by his thought processes, rationale, and "business acumen."

Sadly, when going to get my fix today, visiting his site resulted in an auto-redirect to http://gator25.hostgator.com/suspended.page/, which displayed the message:

This Account Has Been Suspended
Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.


I naturally figured it was a billing issue, seeing as Casey is admittedly $2.2 million in debt. So I contacted support to see what the bill was, considering to pony up the $$$ to get the site back online. (That's how bad this addiction of mine is. Scary.) Anywho, they said it was not a billing issue, but an "abuse" issue. My guess is that a "Casey hater" has launched some sort of Denial of Service attack on the site, if that's what they mean by abuse. Or maybe "abuse" means that Casey has grotesquely overstepped his bandwidth limits. I dunno, I just hope Casey's site is back online sooner than later!!

Casey's site is back up! It was down due to a threatening DMCA violation notice from some "investors" Casey had foolishly signed a contract with. If you feed with the pigs, you're bound to get covered in slop.

This kid Serin is getting some incredible blog traffic. With these stats, he might be able to make a living off his blogs.

He's young and good looking, too. Pretty soon we may be seeing him on "Dancing with the Stars"

After tiring myself out trying to figure out what the heck this dude Casey Serin is actually up to, I finally found a place that catalogs his activities, history, associations, and purpose.

The site bills itself as "the leading semi-satirical wiki about foreclosure blogs", and I'd say that's accurate, given the predictably rather vertical market for "semi-satirical wikis on the topic of foreclosure blogs." Still, it's a good read.
