As well, pranksters have been pulling off jokes by substituting their acquaintances' screen names in place of "Slavemaster," so now versions are circulating that warn netizens to be on the lookout for someone using the handle "SweetCaliGuy4evr," "ooosparklesooo88," "Monkeyman935," or "Free_mumia911," all screen names that have nothing to do with the real John Edward Robinson.

A Snopes.com search takes very little time, and they are very reliable in their research.
