nathrix Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 All i can think is it search headers and not the detail of the posts of the threads. Then admin needs to add the number to the header if you want to find it on the hub. Fortunately a Google search does pick up the scammer's number:

Butterbean Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 So i am now a statistic as well. A guy called Danie Le Roux scammed me out of a 2k for a set of thule bike racks on Gumtree. He claims he is from Beaufort West and even phoned me after i said i dont think i want to do this and told me that we speak the same language (afrikaans) and he wont scam me. (idiot) He has since gone silent, (even got a couple hundred extra out of me for postage), his whatsapps still deliver and he reads them, he does not answer when i phone. His profile pic on whatsapp is of a Liesl le Roux photographer and i contacted her and she got back to me saying i am the second person that contacted her and she does not know him he used a photo from her online portfolio. His details:Name: Danie le Roux (apparently)Cell: 0717684977Email: Lerouxdaniebk@gmail.comGumtree profile: https://www.gumtree.co.za/u-seller-listings/danie/v1u113611380p1FNB Account: 62598469601 I should've seen the warning signs but i thought i can trust him, he sounded like an older gentleman on the phone. So beware people.Should have read this thread I had detailed this dudes MO earlier with the same name and number... Probably same bike rack...

Karooryder Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 I know there is an extensive legal process behind authorising mobile phone-based location tracing but is there no insider on the Bikehub who can pull a few strings to get a location for this guy on one of his numerous numbers? Could be one helluva tekkie party…
thebob Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 He tried to get me with my "Wanted Reverb 1X advert" with the Pierre Viljoen alias.
Shebeen Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 If you google the phone number, this thread comes up as the #1 hit. I'd be surprised if he isn't reading it. Going to be fun when he gets caught.

Going this long and still not caught.He must be reading this thread.It's a sure blight on the whole point of RICA that this oke is at large. When he does get found, I do hope whoever does it can round up the cavalry.
