You are so right.

Lots of scams are based around hard to get to places, so potential buyers are happy to have it posted,
if you ask to view or for a local land line (with a traceable code) they go quiet.

Being banned is nothing. This is misrepresentation and attempted theft. It should be reported to the police and they should be trying to catch him so he can be at least fined but preferably jailed.
Since he is advertising it would not be difficult to contact him for his details and pass them on to the police.

wondering if its the graham brothers back at it again as they used to advertise in areas over that way and was well known ont forums for doing stuff like this

A friend of mine lives in Bury, Lancashire. He is a retired telecoms engineer and good with computers. His landine number is apparently a Shetland Islands one and he reckons it is easy to set something like that up.

Seems to be bit of a trend of this atm I know on the AGF they had a big thread as was happening regularly on there.

Was talk of pictures being posted having some kind of watermark


Personally think good idea with a water mark from what ever forum/platform and guys username and a date would make much harder for people to do.

True provided the username/watermark is placed where it cannot be cropped out when the picture is copied.

Whatever is done some thieving scum-ball will get round it as long as there are buyers who will deal by post.
