Rodney Yee Imposters on MySpace

Apparently some people have been posing (no pun intended) as Rodney Yee on MySpace, presumably for some sort of financial gain. If you look at The REAL Rodney Yee Profile you will see this message:

This is not the real Rodney Yee: http://www.myspace.com/yee_yoga.

The real MySpace profile is: http://www.myspace.com/rodney_yee . The other profile is an imposter.

If you look at the imposter's profile you will see that it is wrong. I am 50 years old (not 42) and I live in New York, not California (although we do have a yoga studio there). Notice also the words "unofficial site" in the profile tag line and that the "blurb" is written in third person. This is probably some sort of attempt to avoid legal issues.

Please take away this imposter's motivation by removing him as a friend. If this person ever emails you, please mark it as spam. We are working with MySpace to get the profile removed. In the meantime I will happily accept a friend request from you.

Thank you for your assistance.

Namaste,

Rodney Yee
