Howzit @ysteryeti come clean dude, once it goes to the cops you are in more ess aitch one tea?! he's even got some event results, https://results.finishtime.co.za/myresults.aspx?uid=35-2688-1-1910245 https://portal.wines2whales.com/docs/results_archive/2016/2016-FNB-W2W-Ride.pdf wonder if his partner at W2W can shed some light, or should we start playing the acronym game with the team name?!

This guy isn’t who or what he claims After reading these pages and the history, Im in agreement with this post. Zero frame, zero chance of money being returned.

reteid Posted September 6, 2022 Share the criminal case will take a while, but should eventually get to court. if the prosecutor is awake he should also ask for a section 300 order ito cpa so that your monies paid is paid back to you irrespective of the sentence on the assumption that he is found guilty on all probability fraud. He will then also have a criminal record and you should have your money back. As i said in the beginning this will take time however and the process can only start if a charge is laid. As to the interaction on the Hub I will not sell or buy anything from him so from that perspective he is already screwed if enough people do the same. I feel your pain and hope something good comes to you. Kixx, aiyaaz, Vetplant and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esCape-ist Posted September 6, 2022 Share Something must have gone seriously pear shaped in this guys life. I must say I feel sorry for everyone involved here. Obviously the “buyers” who have been done in have suffered a loss, and I hope it’s made right to them. But maybe I am just being naive, but I can’t help but feel sorry for the perpetrator here as well, and his family that have to deal with the embarrassment. I mean he was a member here for years, obviously not very active but he made a few posts, and did a few decent deals over the years. In 2019 he was still in a financial position to be doing bike races and event stage races, and obviously has in the past owned some high end bikes. Fast forward three years and his throwing his reputation away over R7500.00. Something must have gone very badly wrong. But by selling the bike to three different buyers, he has really just made his situation a whole lot worse….

cadenceblur Posted September 6, 2022 Share Sorry, but I can't feel sorry. We all make choices that are guided by the morals and principles that govern our behavior. Some people are poor characters, which is exposed in times such as these. Lying and stealing cannot ever be tolerated or understood. ahmedbadat, Swannie87, Vaalhaai and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steady Spin Posted September 6, 2022 Share This just proves a point again. All deals where you can't fetch and pay when you have the item should be done via Hub Pay. Don't trust anyone. Even if they have been a member for 20 years. Steven Knoetze (sk27), Vetplant, _David_ and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoken like someone who has never been so down and out they would be willing to do anything for a few bucks. Not saying what he did was right or should be tolerated, but if his personal situation drove him to this I do have some understanding.

We don't know, I but I doubt he is that destitute - it comes down to what you can personally justify... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either things went south, but he has made multiple promises he didn't keep and now is tjoepstil OR he planned this scam from the start. It's looking the second option at the moment, but he came on here pretending it is the first, No sympathy from me then. MTBRIDER1234 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
