Kenneth Posted April 19, 2018 Share The address on his invoice is 8 Oak St, Somerset West. Google streetview shows a William's Bike Shop at that address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted April 19, 2018 Share We're temporarily suspending the account and removing the adverts and would advise not proceeding with any transactions until we can get clarity from the seller. The address listed does cause concern as to my knowledge Williams Bike Shop is still trading. Update: William (of William's Bike Shop at 8 Oak St, Somerset West) confirms that this person / store has NOTHING to do with them and is not authorized to use their address.

Kenneth Posted April 19, 2018 Share Just spoke to William. He is still up & running & knows nothing about LeTour. Very clearly a scam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted April 19, 2018 Share Just spoke to William. He is still up & running & knows nothing about LeTour. Very clearly a scam I've also just spoken with William (of William's Bike Shop at 8 Oak St, Somerset West) and he again confirms that this person / store has NOTHING to do with them and is not authorized to use their address.

Nigel Pienaar Posted April 20, 2018 Share I bought something from Detour/LeTour bike shop. I spoke to a guy who said his name is Duwayne. This is clearly a SCAM!!! He sent me a fictitious tracking number and is now avoiding my calls. The logo on the invoice he sent me was stolen from another bike shop. They have since been in contact with me and are keen to press charges against this fraudster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Pienaar Posted April 20, 2018 Share If BikeHub are keen to try get hold of him, I do have his number... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted April 20, 2018 Share Detour Bike Shop in Worcester has also contacted us. They want to make it clear that this person has no connection with their shop. He is using the shop name, and even their logo, without permission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanM Posted April 20, 2018 Share Wanted to purchase a cassette from an advert of his in bike hub. He sent me an invoice with Williams bike shop address.

Looks like someone is trying to do some identity theft. good luck to them if they get caught by a bike gang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowbee Posted April 20, 2018 Share Ja, being in somerset west, I can confrim that Mr Williams of Williams bike shop does like coffee and does not like his address being used by scammers. Le Tour as a bike shop does not exist anywhere is Somerset West, or actually in the Helderberg Basin! HeidiB and the nerd 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rouxenator Posted April 20, 2018 Share F...k Paid R1500 yesterday for a road bike. Now no answer. Should I open a police case? I have an ABSA bank account and a MTN cell phone number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
