Another cloned card
Jasper - 29/1/10 at 04:40 PM

So I had my debit card cloned this week. No biggie as the bank will get it all back for me, about £1700 worth.

I called a couple of the companies that we're listed on my bank statement that he tried to use my card with and got his details, full address and phone number:

77 Elsetree Gdns
Belvedere
Kent
DA17 5DR

07816 087615

So please help yourself to any form of abuse you want to send him

I've just sent him the biggest most expensive pizza with all the trimmings from the local Pizza Hut, and put on my scariest voice (not very scary I know!) and told him to be expecting a knock on his door very soon (Number withheld obviously)

Sorry, it was DA17 5DR, justed edited to show ...

does he need double glazing?


SeaBass - 29/1/10 at 04:58 PM

No, it's further down than that!

But could it be his max power neighbours doing the cloning? This package arrived for you at the wrong address type affair?

Call all his local food delivery companies. Fill in a few online surveys ticking all the 'please mail me shite' boxes. Put his phone number up on cards in phone boxes whenever you're in London.

sending him a pizza aint going to do nothing, he could just say i didn't order that and then close the door. you need to think bigger!

but your right, lets get this c*ck, big time!

but then the pizza place will put him on the shitlist so he'll never be able to have dialout again

Taxi at 2am 3am 4am etc going to gatwick How many taxi firms in his area?

I think a Craiglist- Men looking for Men with full details and "fancy a quick trip into the woods behind my house, please no house calls after 5am" should do the trick.


Ben_Copeland - 29/1/10 at 06:26 PM

Just make sure it is him and not some poor neighbour.....


Liam - 29/1/10 at 06:36 PM

Jasper - didn't get an email did you? I can sign up for/book loads more stuff if I have one of those


Steve G - 29/1/10 at 06:36 PM

Worth a few stamps to post letters about his activity to number 15 and 19 too?? So what are the police doing about it??

Wouldn't bother. The neighbours look like Max Power chavs, they'd probably give him respect for doing it.

A friend of ours nearby recently had a spot of annoying bother with a card company. They sent a letter to his address demanding payment of a £4000 card debt but the name on the demand was not his. He contacted them by phone but they were not interested till he threatened them with legal action. Your man could be the victim of something similar.

I know somebody extremely well who once ordered somebody that had upset him 6m3 of ready mix .


eznfrank - 29/1/10 at 08:45 PM

I wouldn't bother trying to send him stuff, the chances of him actually living there are pretty much zero.


Daddylonglegs - 29/1/10 at 08:58 PM

I like plantman's idea, just take it a bit further and order a lorry load of expensive gravel to be delivered and "put it on the drive if I'm out".

The only person you would p!ss off with that would be the poor lorry driver with a 15 ton brick in his wagon after he'd been sent away. You can't get concrete delivered round here unless you pay for it.


dlatch - 29/1/10 at 10:36 PM


shame no car in drive when google chaps passed

but the neighbours look like vauxhall fans and most likely members of one owners club or another i bet, if the next door address was vacant then they could easily be the ones that cloned your card would be simplicity its self to offer to sign for their neighbours parcel that arrived while they were out


Liam - 29/1/10 at 10:58 PM

His house also seems to say 77 on it - must really pee off the posty when he's looking for 108. What a clown.

A friend of mine had the lorry driver pour the concrete load in through the window into the sitting room of the person who'd pissed him off

The guy had to smash his own doors down to get in and find the ground floor 2' deep in solid ready mix!


Jasper - 30/1/10 at 10:15 AM

The only slight worry I have is that he knows where I live too if he has my cards details. To be honest I don't know for sure either way, but I don't want to risk some scary bloke turning up at my shop as I'm closing.

And like you say, I can't be sure I've got his real address either.


oldtimer - 30/1/10 at 10:21 AM

I doubt even the most stupid of thieves would have fraudulently ordered goods sent to their own home under their own name...could be rented, fake IDs, multiple occupancy - no one to blame, neighbours signing etc, etc....

I'd be very careful, it's quite possible you could be dragged over to coals... Particular if it's not who you think it is, they will complain to Mr Plod..
