Default Scammed !

Well i was looking for a unlocked vts ecu and just posted a thread up in the wanted section, i got a few replys saying ive got one and that etc.. Then i recieved a Pm from a member on here saying he has one and will sell it me for £55 posted so i fort oh that reasonable deal so said yes i will have it. So next day i went bank and payed him the money in, by bank transfer once he had give me his details, i txt him to say i had payed the money and he said yeah i recived it and will send it out. I waited a few days and was wondering when it will turn up and he kept on blanking me and didnt anwser or return my calls or txt's then i pm'd him on here saying has it been posted and got a reply after sending 3 or 4 saying 'i will chase it up' and it has now been around 2 weeks since i payed him can anyone give any advice and just like to warn people about this his user is 'saxxy1988'

I also have his Mob number and bank details if that helps.

I did say the post count should be more like a 1000 to stop noobs being scammed anyone that gets scammed after posting a thousand times deserves it tbh.

Sorry to hear that mate mabey if you spent a bit longer on this site (like 775 posts longer) you would of been aware of the scams that happen.

there has been a massive thread about this guy...yet people still keep buying from him.

I personally would never pay someone via bank transfer unless they were a very close friend...its just asking for trouble.

I recommend in the future people pay via paypal goods/service so atleast you have a chance of claiming your money back if necessary.

scammed on about 5-6 forums, people still keep paying into bank accounts with his name on though.

Anyone who has paid BT to a nik hewitt and has recieved no goods go to the police.

unlucky mate, never pay by bank transfer, or as a gift via paypal.

and always either check their itrader or get someone to confirm that they are a reliable seller.

atleast you will know not to do it next time, could have cost you much more!

search for his name theres been several threads.

we thought he had left sax-p for good but seems not, as I said initially the more people report him to the police the more chance there is of the scumbag getting caught.
