SS8_Gohan Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 I'm VERY tempted to send his dad an email with the link for this thread /looking at mods - not a good idea? I work at the fraud department at ANZ, he didn't have an ANZ account that you wired your money too did he? I still think this definitely be taken further than just getting money back. But that's just my two cents. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/43950-beware-of-descr8/page/5/#findComment-902366 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BNR32 Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Count me in on the action. I dont think that any violent acts/law breaking would represent SAU forum in a positive way nor would it really make up any difference of $7400. I would seriously front to XXXXXXX if a group of us got together in force to request the money back from this 'Jordan' character. If gookboi would be so kind as to scan and email a copy of his wire copy original and write out his story in a signed statement, the least we could do as SAU representatives is front 'Jordan' and ask his story. If 'Jordan' denies all involvement, which is very likely, then we can take the evidence we have to the police in which we have all rights to do. At the end of the day, it would be the right thing to do and would make a good point of saying that 'SAU does not condone fraudulant/illegal activities'.. What do you think?

DoughBoy Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 It's a bit of a mob mentality that's starting to go on here. Fair enough he's made a mistake, either consciously or not, and now he's paying it back. People have been warned about his behaviour, and he's likely not to get much business until this matter gets forgotten. Case closed? It's bad enough it happened in the first place, no need to start a lynch mob armed with tar and feathers to create a second mistake....

BNR32 Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 My point exactly. I still think that something should be done. Maybe we could all donate a gold coin to SAU to allow for a debt collector to find this missing money. Just remember Doughboy, if you were short $7400 i would expect you to sort legal advice. I think gookboi is either rich, helpess or crazy. I would definitely miss $7400 in cash. My whole point is to make a statement. That statement being 'don't abuse your priveledges on the SAU forum'. Just preaching 'watch out for blah blah' is not stopping the problem, its sidestepping the problem. Taking action and showing other members that SAU are serious about fraudulent activities is very important. I would like to continue purchasing and selling goods over these pages, hassle free! Even some official SAU closure on this issue would be nice! It does directly effect the way that i will continue use the forum, that's for sure. Surely an issue that effects its members should be investigated and brought to closure, i don't call that 'tar and feathers action'.

Cubes Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Wait until the money is received then consider letting members of his family know.. I wouldn't play around with the chance of loosing $7400.

DoughBoy Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Hang on, let me get this straight. One person has come forward regarding being "ripped off", plans are being made up to re-imburse and now you want to persue the matter further? I don't recall anyone carrying on wanting to incite a rebellion with (insert business name here) over Dicky's missing parts/money. Furthermore, why is it acceptable to allow this thread to continue to probe a person, with full mention of their contact details, business address etc. when it is STRICLY VERBOTEN to have a similar thread in direct relation to a business? I can recall a ton of posts being deleted and edited because they involved negative comments towards a business before, why is it being overlooked now? Mob mentality at it's finest.... or should I say lemmings?

funkymonkey Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 beacuse the said person misused these forums and as a result was banned from here. In fact, there is a list of bad traders on this forum and he's already mentioned on there.

raz0r$harP.UK Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Also no-one is making comments about the business practices itself..people have mentioned where he works and that in light of the difficulties in contacting him, some suggested contacting him through the business.

And because i started posting, he got some what scared of what it might do to his fathers shop and wanted to pay me back. We in no way wanted harm to come to the company. We referred to it as a contacting place to recieve his attention and it seemed to work nicely.

Mob mentality at it's finest.... or should I say lemmings? Chris, hold on just a second. As it happens I know of at least two others on SAU who have been badly shafted by DESCR8, although not to the extent of $7400, who have yet to see this thread. In my opinion, until DESCR8 comes good on his promise and pays back g00kboi, and settles his issues with other members, the big issue is far from over. One thing I do agree on is being very careful at this time and not jeopardising g00kbois immediate chance of being reimbursed. If and when this occurs, then and only then should any further action be considered. Also regarding the business Vs. individual slandering, I see your point, however many of those who have been screwed by DESCR8 have documentation and evidence of conversations between themselves and Jordan, so there are no unfounded accusations flying, and no rumours as Jordan has admitted being at fault. As far as im concerned, this thread is ok and its staying open to inform SAU's members of the progress of this situation. I would however like to see it trimmed back and certain comments and threats being removed.

g00kb0i Posted June 24, 2004 Author Share Posted June 24, 2004 It seems that Jordan went through with the transfer and just recieved the fax that says it has been sent. so if the mods can be kind enough to delete this thread.

funkymonkey Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 i reckon a good going over this thread censoring it is in order, with his contact details and business links edited out.
