CdT85 Posted May 27 Share Hi guys and girls, Has anyone dealt with shooter mc gaven recently ( @Shooter mc gaven - 0832353544 )? I purchased a Rockshox monarch shock from him on Friday and did an EFT. Since then the user went quiet, it looks like I have been blocked on whatsapp and phone goes directly to voicemail. A quick search of his mobile number brought up a second bikehub profile @roelofcoertse that is disabled (even saw that I had successful dealing with him in the past on this profile). He had a few ads up on Friday, but all of them has been deleted since. Has anyone had successful dealings with the seller recently? Or did I pay school fees on the classifieds for the umpteenth time?

Can only hope this is easily explained miss communication issue. Else it seems like the classifieds have gone belly up judging from most of my last purchases here.

CdT85 Posted May 30 Share Hi guys and girls I have a bad update unfortunately. I have been blocked on whatsap again. Seems that Roelof Coertse @Shooter mc gaven has taken a turn to the dark side and have dissapeared with my money. Please be weary of dealing with him. I have sent him a dm requesting a refund, which i doubt will happen. Thus I will see what I can do to open a case of fraud against him over the weekend. What a dissapointing conclusion.

CdT85 Posted September 19 Share And he is back folks. New name, selling the same shock he scammed me with https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/rear-shocks/754979/rockshox-monarch-rc3-plus truecaller identifies his number as Roelof as well : 0743569038 @Matt @Maverick Goose gotcha mate. Feel free to contact me here to organize shipment of said shock to me, or my refund Edited September 19 by CdT85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdT85 Posted September 20 Share Final conclusion to this case. I phoned Roelof last night on the new number he listed and informed him about all the information I collected on him since this fraud thread was openend and gave him a deadline to refund me before I expose his dealing and open a case of fraud against him. As of a few minutes ago, I have been refunded after nearly 4 months. I can only hope this was a lesaon for him and that he turns from his ways. Be careful in dealing with this individual.

Lekker weekend all Take this further, please. It's great your case or issue has been resolved, but without further action, there will be many like you after this. You would have wanted the oke before you to do as much as possible to stop this, so be that guy for his next victim.

Simon Kolin Posted September 20 Share Morning. Fantastic news about the refund of your money. If you do approach SAPS, what outcome would you like? Can it be considered fraud/theft if the money was returned? CdT85 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
