Here is a common real life reputation defenders story.

A school teach in VA had a few angry students who happen to be internet savvy. After the students were failed in school the teacher who had a perfect 20 year track record found himself under federal, local, and state investigation for child molestation.

This teacher had a great reputation, but after these students plastered the internet message boards, blogs, forums and social networking sites with a fake and slanderous story about how this teacher made 3 girls in class perform lude acts with him during class and made the boys watch.

The teacher’s home phone number, email address, school number, and home address was published with all of these false posts… The teacher was under fire from thousands of people and parents.. Within 1 month he was under criminal investigation.

After being cleared of the every false claim, he still had to live with the bad reputation that was online.

Or did he?

He did the right thing by contacting a reputation defender a/k/a a reputation management firm.

After 3 months of hard work there was now no trace of these slanders and the teacher can now live in peace after this attempt to ruin his reputation.
