Kim Kardashian had her lawyers threaten the founder of BoycottKim.com, a web site that claims the Kardashians are “un-American” and “an embarrassment for our country.”

The founder of BoycottKim.com was contacted by the Kardashian family’s general counsel Christopher T. Wilson, who said that Hollywood attorney Martin Singer intended to file a criminal harassment complaint against him.

Criminal harassment?

“They try to scare you,” the web site’s founder, who laughed off the threats, told the New York Daily News. “They do not want bad publicity.”

During a “lengthy phone conversation” between the web site’s founder and Wilson, the attorney “expressed dismay” over an item on the site suggesting that readers contact Marty Singer to voice their opinion on published reports that Kardashian-endorsed products were made in Chinese sweatshops.

It included his phone number.

BoycottKim.com has gathered more than 512,000 signatures from people who have pledged not to do business with companies associated with the Kardashian clan.
