You mean the company that sic'd the Pinkertons on a fan/reviewer because they sent him the wrong thing in the mail? That Hasbro?

Can you tell me enough so that I can search for what you are talking about?

Yea, so Hasbro owns Wizards of the Coast, which owns Magic The Gathering. One day, a guy that opens packs on camera got accidentally sent a pack from a set that hadn't been released yet.

I forget the exact details, but WotC ended up sending some thugs to this guys house to retrieve the merchandise via intimidation, and the company those thugs worked for was related to the Pinkertons from your high school civics textbook. (Like, they had acquired them in a merger or something.)

If you're going to start a story with "yea", then you have to follow it up with "it came to pass" or something like that.
