tetley1933 0 Posted March 29 The scammer will definitely try his luck again. Just wanted to warn others. There should be a sticky somewhere about scams from individual members and even dealers. Not sure why a scammer would like to con over this. Disgraceful. He is probably reading this thread and will change his name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's very well known to the police there. There are a lot of people been ripped off by him in the past, he's a career scammer. It would help if the Mods can put you all together so that multiple complaints can need made, cross-referencing all the others so the police get a clear picture on the size of the scam. There's even an Icelandic news article about him scamming in his local paper. These guys for example: https://omegaforums.net/threads/icelandi 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That name rings a bell. I’m pretty positive he’s been caught before under different name scamming. Cheers Denis. 4 minutes ago, GingerApple said: He's very well known to the police there.

This guy is a career criminal. Extremely well known to hit in watch markets for £10’s of thousands. We have thread on him in multiple forums and there are even news articles on him. Yet he still operates fairly successfully. Don't think its him who isn't smart sadly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a bummer though that a main pursuit of these guys is to use legitimate and efficient systems to con and defraud people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
