Just to see how many fraudulent sellers are on here. i got a pm from saxxy1988 replying to my request for subframes for my new corbeau forza seats, i asked to use paypal but he said he didnt use them, so we agreed i would put £60 cash into his bank account and he would send them when funds show in his account, this was on the 23.11.09 still not arrived! he claims he sent them but when i requested proof of postage he said he would send the reciept via picture message again another thing which didnt arrive, so i asked him to send the pic via my e-mail which was all agreed to, and again has not arrived im at a loose end what shall i do i have asked for a refund and gues what...... completely ignored!!! :wall: i have all his bank details still any suggestions??? HELP!!!!

Think a thread was made about this user before?

[andyt81]

that lad has made quite alot of money off saxp
your not the first, there are loads who have been done over

[P90PTS]

Funny thing is... anyone could find out the exact location of where he's logging on

[saxo-parts]

has he got multiple id's as its very similar to the saxovt1/blueocean scammers style? scamming scum want locking up, i'm on several forums,not just for cars, and i've never had any bother till the past few weeks.

codnor,Derbyshire by any chance?

[P90PTS]

I have no idea... but if someone has his IP i will ;)

Oh if you have his bank details call the police. End.

[saxorino]

Because you've sent cash i dont thing you have a chance of getting it back, although you have all his bank details do something with that like see if you can go shopping with it or just sell his numbers to someone.lol

[JamesR]

Sax-p convoy to his house :D

On a serious note, you have to take a risk when buying off people on forums, best to avoid it where you can. Personally i dont buy or sell to people with less than 5 100% iTrader.

[pjw]

Did he ask you to pay via western union first?

Alarm bells shoudl have been rining when he asked you to place cash in his bank. It could have been anyones.

Lesson learned.

[peter_10sax]

Derby.... bastard im soo gutted was really exited bout getting them before christmas. i have his mobile number, name, and bank details but no full name just nick p.

[saxo-parts]

sounds like another alias for saxovt1/blueocean if he's coming up as Derbyshire, address i had was approx 4 miles from my house

People need to report this to police and mods/admin so that there accounts can be blocked. Happens way to often now. As a club what can be done to stop this happening. Simo changed the rules so that they needed 50 or 100 posts before they can post in the for sales section, so now you see people spaming gen chat just to get enough posts. The more the rules change the more people find ways round them. Some thing needs to happen, but what can be done.

Nick? Bit of a giveaway right there. Ironic :n: Unlucky mate :(

[Saxo-SX]

If youve got his bank details the police may be able to gather his name and address. Or maybe not due to data protection?

Worth ringing the police to find out though

from what i have read, he has been pm'ing the members
how can admin combat that?

[Claireeyy]

Should have said no when he asked you to put it straight into his account likes. but you will ken for next time

[peter_10sax]

i am going to the police, this was a halifax account he gave me??? definately lesson learned

A verification system could be put in place. Meaning you had to request a sellers account. Which a verification code is then posted to an address. Or Sax-P could charge for example £0.01 from someones bank account, which would verify the name and address etc as it would have to match the details on their bank account.

I dont know how hard this would be to impliment.

Just an Idea

[peter_10sax]

i completetly see it all now im such a d**k i just thought as he was a member on here it would be ok, he pm'ed me saying he had them as said above, we text arranging it all i thought if he was willing to give me all his sort code and account number it had to be logit...... fool

[ryanmt]

The internets getting worse for scammers, paypal is a nightmare to work with! I wish there was a better alternative!

[Heliosphan]

If the police can't help do something about it yourself.

Use your imagination, you have his bank details and you know he banks at the Halifax.

If it was me I'd seek out someone who could give me his address....

:detective:

[smiith]

Go to halifax and report that he is doing this to people, maybe they can monitor him

Not your fault mate, you just carnt trust anyone anymore.

Least you wont do it again, it could have been a lot worse.

[peter_10sax]

im glad it was only £60 thats still alot of money to me but it could of been hundreds!!! im going to report it to the police, and the mods/admin to get his account shut i hope everyone reads this so no one else ends up like me its so harsh these websites are for the majority of us sharing a passion not on here to get strung up!

but not everybody gives/recieves itrader feedback when they purchase something

[ShockZy]

I doubt youll be able to get him done, because youve sent him cash through a random forum striaght to his bank. He could easily just say that you were sending him money as a friend or summit, There is no proof and i doubt you will get anywhere, sorry

[saxo-vsx]

go on to a website and buy a load of shit of a web site seems u have his bank details abousultly go max out.

[J222JRA]

Man these threads are getting boring imo

Would be better to remove the for sale section....problem solved

[blackie_2k5]

that ruins it for the majority, send me his details ive got a few mates who can have fun with it, we'll see how he likes being ripped off

[J222JRA]

Not gonna happen....data protection act :y:

If people would only have a bit of common sense when it comes to purchasing there wouldnt be a problem.

[peter_10sax]

what do you mean data protection act i have his details already???? it wasnt a case off common sense mate he was a premium member who replied to my wanted add there was nothing dodgy at the time i had his name phone number, who he banks with, sort code account number, i also have a friend in the police force who can access these things to find out who it is and the address. if you thought someone was going to mug you off would you expect to recieve these?

[Krys_23]

I seen Nick P .. By any chance is the the Nickolas Hewitt? Guy was scamming on here nearly a year ago and must have made as much back then as he has now. Get on to this right away its not on.

[dean1992]

Unlucky
Hope you get your items or money back
Are there alot of people who scam on this site?
Thanks

[gouldy87]

Funny thing is... anyone could find out the exact location of where he's logging on

if your good with computers etc.. no onw can trace you. hide your ip address etc...

[huggy54]

guys he's got a new number, he tried doing me AGAIN, the dumb cunt, as if I wouldn't remember, guys this is his new number 07815-173-655

[Mike_420]

im sure theirs a dedicated thread for scammers, might be worth posting it in there?

[DannySkittles]

im sure theirs a dedicated thread for scammers, might be worth posting it in there?


there is, in the forum under suggestions i think, if this is that nick hewitt i posted his address in there as well, on page 21, but i heard he had been arrested for all this scamming, it was on the 106 owners club that he had been done for this,

or is this another guy?

[JamesR]

but not everybody gives/recieves itrader feedback when they purchase something

I always make sure i give / recieve it as should everyone wether it be negative or positive. It's a good way to establish wether people are trustworthy so that you can sell or buy from them :)

[boarer2004]

I doubt youll be able to get him done, because youve sent him cash through a random forum striaght to his bank. He could easily just say that you were sending him money as a friend or summit, There is no proof and i doubt you will get anywhere, sorry

you should no by looking at your i trader feedback money sent but no items recieved i think if a mod sees more then one of these neg feedbacks they should be kicked off forum ........... hate people that rip people off :wall:

[VTSTomE]

Solution is easy just don't buy off someone as a paypal gift or bank transfer unless they are a reputable seller. Use paypal but be prepared to pay their small fee and you have protection.
