Sometimes our email says the darndest things. For instance, this morning our inbox told us it had a copy of a LexisNexis request from Fabian Basabe. Why in the world would Fabian want to use some big ugly tool like LexisNexis? Oh, to look for his own name, of course!

Hmm. We're not sure if we buy this — obviously Fabian has all of his news clippings prominently displayed on his Sub-Zero fridge, so why would he need a LexisNexis report? Maybe those Google News alerts just aren't working for him. Read on for more Lexising and Nexising...

BODY:

DANIELLE SCOTT, for-mer Rittenhouse Square shoe retailer, insists she's not the same woman who recently told the New York Postshe had been punched by a man in a Manhattan nightclub.

Page Six reported last week that Scott, a "New York marketing executive," alleged she had been assaulted in club Marquee by socialite Fabian Basabe.

Scott, whose old spot catered to feet belonging to Kate Mossand Vivica A. Fox, lives in New York, and says she's "in sales."

The Danielle Scott who filed an incident report with the NYPD gave a DOB as March 1972, said a police source. Our records indicate the shoe seller also was born in March 1972.

"I've been in Miami for the last two weeks. It's someone else with the same name," Scott said.

The several occasions we've talked with her in the past, she was always very friendly, but this time she sounded annoyed and eager to get off the phone.

When we mentioned the coincidence of two New York women with the same name having the same date of birth, Scott said, "A lot of the people who go to these clubs are about the same age."

She called it an "ironic coincidence," before saying once again that she'd been in Miami for two weeks. It's definitely her, says a former Philly friend of Scott's.

Several messages we left this weekend on Scott's cell phone to further discuss the "ironic coincidence" were not returned. For the record, Basabe told Page Six that he punched nobody.

Ah, okay. Now it makes sense. But, you know, you don't really need LexisNexis; we're happy to do the research for Fabian, and we promise a much quicker turnaround time.
