Cheers mate,
John.

Apologies for posting this as my first post, but seems like I too have been scammed by Ben Owen, the parts did not turn up as promised and now he is hiding and not answering my calls, if anyone has any further information please get in touch, I am not sure how I should go about getting my money back and if the police can be involved in such cases?

I cannot undestand how an act of good will on the part of a fellow Locoster ie bringing to the attention of others that there is a scammer out there. It is also obvious that this individual has stepped in and supported others in receiving goods ordered from unfortunately another unscrupolous trader. I for one welcome what Eddie has done on all counts and should be applauded for his actions. He has no business interests so therefore is not seeking to profit from this.

The actions / responses from some on the forum will only seek to prevent others from raising concerns in the future.

Agreed. Why are people deliberately derailing a useful thread which has been posted to protect their interests?

I do agree with Mr whippy,

but this is an open forum, for ANY one to view, and would imagine if there was any trouble, it would'nt be hard for the Police, to find a lot more info
