Just want people to be vigilant as I've been had by this guy, fortunately only £40. Was going by the forum name yozzer88 and name and bank account number below

account number : 43206670
sort code : 60-01-11
sean s hughes

I managed to find his mobile number from a previous forum post (which has now been removed) so maybe you'd be so kind as to text him something to stir his emotions! 07715440830

He answered a wanted ad and I transfered money to him a month ago - didn't reply to PM's or emails but finally did when i texted him - blamed problems at home and the post office returning the package to him and said it would be with me soon, which turned out to be stalling tactics, and has since not replied to any form of communication.

    That sort code relates to the National Westminster Bank, Allerton Road, Liverpool
    Liverpool Customer Service Centre, Stevenson Way, Wavertree, L13 1NW, Phone: (870) 2403388,
    As you have his name and banking details I would be very tempted to contact the Police in that area and report it as a theft and let them deal with it. Even if you don't get anything out of it there's a chance that it might cause the thieving scumbag some grief. Just a thought...

    you have his Mail addy?

    you could just call him at the bike shop he works in.

    nicklouse if you know where this guy works how about you share it with us and maybe wthrellfall can give them a call and enlighten his colleagues in the shop as to the kind of person they are working with! It might just encourage him to do something about this matter.

    We can't give users details out online. But just using google I found his email address and phone number in 5 seconds.
