i am the first to normally jump in with both feet and would have happily given him a proper kicking and taken his stuff but you did the right thing...god i must be calming down in my old age.but nows the time to kick some ***.if he is selling cars then he has money and can afford to lose one in exchange for your debt.

As has already been said, sell the debt, he'll get whats coming to him via karma or the people you sell the debt to.

At least you get some of your money spiced with a little satisfaction.

I've read this thread a few times although not today admittedly. It's been a hellish day so forgive me if this has been suggested already.

If the police are not helping you, and you are getting no joy from Luke as it is, is it worth going to his local newspaper and seeing if they're interested in showing him in his true light?

After that, get some A4 fliers printed up and put them in the pubs in his new locality to let everyone know what an un-trustworthy lowlife he is.

No there will be no kicking crap out of him. Which is very fortunate for him. Mind you he is a little bigger than me but he's got one of them irritating shakes where you have to comfort him and tell him he is not about to get crap kicked out of him so that he can compose himself and make an attempt of a sentence.

Unfortunately i am limited as to what i can do to him or his character. I've got a squeaky clean record and i want to keep it that way. Although i'm sure certain things are in the publics interest. As for the press there's plenty of scammers out there. I'm just exposing him to the car community (which is not small by any means).

Not good news, Shaid, but totally predictable I'm afraid.

Remember this, way back in the thread.

This clown is a scammer, nail him now.

I would love to confront him again but he is just a big lard of 6ft + shivering wreck. He is the type of guy who hides behind his fat gobby Mrs (not even fit, i did consider pulling her as revenge but she is gross - she in the link)


Well i'll be calling bailiffs in the morning to see what they can say for themselves.

As for plod i had a voicemail from them this evening telling me not to call or text him otherwise i will be arrested and charged for something harassment related and have some sort of order where i can't approach him placed on me for good measure. Plod made it clear i must go through bailiffs, i can't approach him to demand my cash and in 'their' words they aren't interested in what he has done.

You can still sell the debt.

Thing is scammers know how to play the system, he's turned it around on you so that he is the victim, acts like a jibbering wreck to the cops and courts, who's poor life has been made a misery by a nasty man.

His whole family is afraid to go out for fear of what might happen, he's a prisoner in his own home, and the poor chap is having sleepless nights and when he does manage to get a couple of hours kip, he wakes up in a cold sweat.

But he's trying to make a bit of money selling cars on the side, so he can pay you back, but at the moment all he can afford is £20 sheets a week, and thats really put a strain on the house hold food bill and his kids are going hungry.

When in fact he is a filthy,lying piece of shyt and is probably reading this laughing his moobs off, he deserves a good kicking, which he will most definatly get, one day, and it will be from people that make sure they get the job done properly.

Just a matter of time mate, he will do it to the wrong person one day,life and the universe has a funny way of sorting things out, the longer you live the more you realise it's true.

unfortunatly until then there will be quite a few honest decent people getting ripped off in the mean time.

I got to give it to him though. His bird does know how to handle herself. Plus she has ***** too. When i used to phone her she made it clear in no uncertain terms that it's her 'ouse' and i shouldn't call it. She didn't seem to be bothered that her fella is a scammer though. I was always polite to her, i mean i can't really threaten a woman now can i? On the other hand Luke could not even muster up a few words. Although Luke did once threaten by email stating he is going to kill Jimmyinrugby about something or another.

I have called the Bailiffs but i need to call them in the morning as the collection is ongoing. In the meantime i picked up another voicemail from Mr Plod at 6am (!) stating he'll call me tonight to discuss Luke and me sending him text messages. Thinking about it, is plod calling me at 2330 and 0600hrs harrassment? Hmmmm

Make sure you have everything in a nice new file for them to go through.
All the communications etc.
I find it shocking that they can tell you to stop contacting him when he clearly owes you £1200.

I'd put a complaint into the police stating that they just do not understand the situation and are acting on the words of a thief.

Well i received a call from plod again this afternoon.

So far i have spoken to three officers. First one was timid, second one who i didn't speak to really was playing bad cop and the third one was a true gent.

It turns out that Luke was in fact arrested by the police. I don't know when but at some point they decided to arrest him. They tried to charge him for something under deception. As i had already issued civil proceedings against him to recover my monies CPS has the blue screen of death, got mighty confused, probaly tripped over their shoe laces forgot as to what their role really is and decided to not charge him for any 'criminal' offence. So ultimately it's my own fault for jumping the gun.

Now plod did mentioned threads on various forums could constitute harassment although i beg to differ especially considering any information about him on here or anywhere else is information that is already in the public domain voluntarily used by Luke himself. I have just collated it a little and shared it elsewhere. Furthermore i'm sure defaming his excellent character is a civil matter and not a criminal matter. If it is a civil matter then hey bring on the suing lol.

Now daytime plod were asked by the bad cop to call my local plod and ask them to come and have a word with me, whilst wearing full uniform and in the plod car. Maybe even
bring me in for a telling off as someone has really scared Luke and he is shivering away suckling on his dummy. I know it sounds exciting as i've never been in a cell before but to be fair i'm not too keen on the idea anyhow although my local plod have a nice slim and fit Pakistani WPC who i tried chatting up many years ago. I wouldn't mind a home visit from her to be fair.

Furthermore i must ask people i appreciate the kind words and offers of help but please no paying him visits and no calling him. I don't know who it is, your help is appreciated however i have promised plod that i'm going to keep on the court route, i am not going to kick crap out of him, i must not harass him or threaten him any more not that i have i've only ever called him scum, low life and asked for my money.
