ホッタトミアキ氏はある製造会社に偽物のSEXとSeditionariesのラベルを自身のために製作させています。
そのラベルの付けられた偽物の「Cosh The Innocent」が彼により販売されました。
このことはVivienne Westwoodの企業に報告され、彼らはこの不正に大きな関心を寄せており、法的措置をとる準備を始めました。

If you look at Hotta’s blog you will notice he steals photos off ebay and sticks them on his blog, and he writes SOLD next to the photo to give the Japanese customers the impression that HE had that item for sale and HE sold it for a high price. But it’s all lies. He’s trying to make himself look like an important vintage clothing dealer. But he’s full of S**T.

Tomiaki Hotta bought some Clash, Ramones, and other punk and rock tees from me. I loved those tees full of my youth memories. Sadly I had to sell em. Put em on ebay and he won the lot. I shipped them all to Japan. Was gutted but had bills to pay and needed $$$ for my kids school fees. Anyways, that CUNT Hotta told ebay he did not get the goods. ebay then froze my Paypal account. Two weeks later they refunded Hotta his money and the shipping fees. And I lost everything. But UPS confirmed Hotta did get my goods and signed for them. But ebay and paypal would not help me as the case was closed. And Hotta got to sell my clothing on Yahoo Auctions Japan.

He used the 2011lady1990 name on eBay to buy 7 vintage Tees from me. He has perfect feedback. I had no reason to be suspicious. I knew nothing about his scams. So I obviously I had no need to do any research about him until I got stung.
I only found this blog a couple of days ago. Ad then I searched the name Tomiaki Hotta and found someone had said he was an alcoholic and gambler. And I then found his Yahoo Auction Japan ID which is PONJP1005. On Yahoo Auctions he currently has a 20 negative feedback entries.
I am just as angry with ebay and Paypal. They do not protect sellers from scum like Hotta. We the innocent sellers lose everything to these guys.

What is also tragic about this situation is the fact the Japanese kids who buy Tees from Tomiaki Hotta, from his Yahoo Auctions Japan account or from his OutPut blog, are actually buying STOLEN GOODS.
