Blink PR-Katherine Niefeld A Scam Artist & Sociopath Hallandale Florida
I do not have first-hand experience with this company, but I am aquatinted with people who do. The friends that I have who've hired Blink/Mrs. Katherine, say that they haven't the time nor energy to waste to expose her unprofessionalism and psychotic-like behavior. I on the other hand, cringe at the thought of innocent people being deceived and mistreated by others who play them for fools. Since my review is based on testimonies of multiple clients of hers, I will make the general statement(s) that she is: 1) a scam artist; 2) mentally/emotionally unstable; and 3) very, very, vindictive. She takes money from those who want to invest in the growth of their companies; promises them exposure; and gives them nothing but false hope and embarrassment in return. Despite all of the previous reviews, my friends did not heed the warnings, as they really believed that they may have been created by a scorned "fired" ex-employee, but I assure you the allegations are true as they are typical Katherine behaviors. STAY AWAY from this company if you want to keep your pride, sanity, and money!

This is not a SURPRISE to see all of the complaints against Blink PR/ Katherine Niefeld and/or Fleischman!
I have also been scammed by this LIAR/ con-artist! Katherine charged 2 payments of $500 on my AMEX and 1 of them wasn't event approved to be charged on that month. The charges were suppose to be on two consecutive months in which set me back.
She has agreed in writing via email to execute a certain number of PR services via BLINK PR from almost 1-year ago and still has not executed ANYTHING after the 1st and ONLY edit in August of 2015 that she said she would do. We had a deadline to wrap up all of the PR that was promised in late summer of 2015. I gave her the benefit of the doubt as I believed all of her lies that she will keep her word and deliver on her promises. She has NOT done 1 thing to date to deliver on those promises. She has only procrastinated over and over again by over promising and under-delivering.
I asked for a refund in December of 2015 for non-performance of services. She has not paid the refund to date and just today replied "LOL" via email to the past-due invoice that was emailed to her.
I was referred to her by one of her customers in NYC and mentioned that I would tell her how unethical she was. Her reply to that statement via email was "I worked with her already she ran out of money"!
I also mentioned to her that I just saw and read all of the complaints about her on here and she replied, "They are all done by the same stupid employee lol"
Futherrmore, after I said all of these complaints come as NO SURPRISE to me she replied, "What's that supposed to mean? Anyone can write a ripoff I can write a zillion about you saying anything I want "!
With her last quoted remark above via email, she is now saying that she can write slandering, defaming false complaints and lies about me. This is truly concerning. I replied "if you send me one more email, I will sue you for harrasment"!
Furthermore, all of the complaints on here were all SPOT ON, as both her FB page and Twitter page are both NOT working as of today.
She emailed me several "email commitments" for PR back in December of 12/15 and none of them came through. She even LIED and told me late summer 2015 that she got me several placements of my event photos in the 'around town" & "scenes" sections in the back of a few magazines. When I asked her for the copies, she never replied and never sent me anything.
Her behavior and unprofessionalism is truly jaw-dropping!
I now have to sue her for the monies owed.
Agreed, BEWARE
