Wierd. He could be very very canny, his name and address could me made up or some mate's address that would be hard to trace back to him.
Or it could be as he's released so much personal info he's not intentionally scamming people.... but then again why give people fake tracking numbers?
I don't want to commit myself to either saying he's a scammer or not.... if I say 'not' I can see myself eating those words....

So why hasn't he come back on here and defended himself? He's has emails, voicemails, PM's on here. I would love him to come on here and tell us what's going on, I've even invited him.
If you were in the clear and had made a mistake, would not not try and quickly clear your name?
Too many things that don't add up eg. offering the phone that he had traded with me on another website for £180. Three days later has £180 to spend on a phone on here. Perhaps just a coincidence.
And why after I started the doubts creeping in has everyone come out of the woodwork, not only on here but on his other forum he frequents as well.
Mike - I know I was stupid. I even told him he would have to send first and he sort of agreed but with his two pluses plus all the other deals he was doing, it just never happened.

I have to agree with Doug, if this bloke had made "A" mistake, it could be easily sorted, but it seems there are a few too many people on here that have had exactly the same problems, with the same results.
He tried to get us to send our phones to him before he sent his, but luckily we said no, if we had we would have been 2 phones and money down.
He also sent us a pm friday morning saying he had lost his mobile so we wouldnt be able to get hold of him, but when the phones didnt arrive and we called from a private number, he answered. He answer to losing his phone the night before? He found it.
He has been telling us all weekend we will have our money tomorrow morning. Lets see what happens. I for one dont believe a single word.

The bugger got me too on a K800. I even turned down other offers to get one from other ppl as he was selling his £5 cheaper.
Looked at the +1 feedback and the thread it came from on here and it seemed the person was happy with the transaction.
sent £200 for the k800 on 26th of august, he gave me a tracking number on the monday and it said it was already delivered.
i quired him he sed he will sort it will royal mail and have heard nothing since

I've sent him a PM asking for a tracking no. for my 2100 yesterday, no reply yet though! He's probably reading this thread with interest, quite possibly chuckling away to himself at how clever he is if he is a scammer 
Could he be taken to the small claims court, either by individuals here or as a collective? We have his (what are hopfully his genuine) details to get a summons sent to.

@Sexygenius
Good luck with the Paypal, but remember you can't take what he has not got!!! No money in the account NOTHING to come out!
@Sammy
YES small claims is the best way, but NOT worth it for a fiver!!
Anyway he could be having a holiday hence the delays!!!!!
Now where have I heard that before????

Lamont - good idea. Has someone the time to do this for me please? I have my PM thread I'm going to print off later and highlight the scams but that will take long enough.
That will help me tomorrow when I go to the police. Please others go as well.
Doug
Gazza - hope you don't lose £200, try laughing then. Not appreciated. You're not hang_man in disguise are you? |

i know i've not been had..
he was trying a little too hard to get phones off me....
we as a collective have more power than as individuals in a court....
i'm quite happy to say now that he is a scammer... and needs to pay....

Before you all rush of to the Police I think they can only act after 14 days have passed.
I'm sure that's what I had to do, but give them a call before you go to make sure.
Good luck.
