UPDATE: Does anyone know Preston Luke Scott from KZN


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi Guys, I'm gutted if this is true. I "bought" the Mavic wheelset and did an EFT on Friday......I have'nt heard from Luke Scott from yesterday (Tuesday). I only communicated via e-mail

railed69@live.com

 

manager@globalro3.co.za

 

He said he was from Estcourt and he indicated he rides a cannondale Scapel. I normally only buy from seasoned hubbers, but being new to the hub myself and felt that someone has to start somewhere...Is this a lesson or what.

if its sitting at over 30K it is deffinately time to get the police involved, even contact gumtree and inform them, I had an issue before like this and Gumtree was very helpfull.

This sh!t has to stop....right now...

 

@ADMIN...why can we not have a seperate buy / sell section where:

(1) you have to register properly...with full disclosure of one's details i.e id doc / proof of residence & banking details...that sort of stuff.

I'd feel much more comfortable doing deals if that was the case....

 

(2) no pseudonyms etc. are being used? That way traceability is better... If you have nothing to hide then i'd like to do bussiness with you...BUT if you cannot even supply me with your basic details...then it is simply dodgy!!

 

(3) Admin will /can have only access to those "confidential" details...and in case a deal goes south...then Admin can supply such details to Police or affected party...

 

(4) after all - have you seen the amount of personal info needed to register on PPA website? ARGUS entry etc.?

 

C'mon, lets do something proactive here and become a leader in web based trading...other may just learn from THEHUB and adopt our bussiness model!

 

What is so difficult about my suggestion?

Ive had the conversation with the guys at Gumtree about them getting peoples personal details when it comes to bicycle sales , and although they agree its a good idea, they dont want to go down this road in protecting people. They said in no uncertain terms that they are not "e-bay" I agree that this needs to be sorted out soon with ADMIN, peoples details need to be taken down, and then verified. Its the only way to stop this from happening.

I had to do all of that on rcmart.com, and I agree there, full proof of details and everything!

Would that have prevented this, I don't know. We know what his "name" is, his "address" even a cell no. But are they legit, that is another story all together. He could have supplied admin with all those "details" and this still would have happened.

 

 

Admin cannot exactly go around checking if piet pompies is piet pompies

If you got a response from him on "manager@globalro3.co.za" then there is a very good chance of contacting the contact listed in the whois, either directly or through the police:

 

admin : Bonthuys Tracy

title : DNS Administrator

company : Global Ro3 Liquids (PTY) Ltd

postaladdr : Postnet 9, Private Bag X5516, Scottburgh, Kwa-zulu Natal, ZA, 4180

phone : 0313045367

 

Sounds like a legit business and they would know who has access to that e-mail address etc.

What he meant is get a certified copy of ID,etc...send it to thehub admin and they then give you rights to sell...you dont have to start a whole file. I am sure if it happened to you you will react in the same way as everyone of us
