    [Name removed by Forum Team] come back! A business guru such as yourself could teach us so much!

    You could start running seminars and charge people for the privilege... a bargain at $1000 an hour plus $50 for a cuppa and $200 per biscuit! I'd sign up immediately.

    Hi Gaz, good to hear from you again!

    What subjects are all these GCSE's in?

    Probably not Ancient History, which teaches that when lions are circling, it's best to get the hell out of the forum (Roman or otherwise.)

    Keep it going people, I so love this thread.

    It looks like [Name removed by Forum Team] will finally see justice, I just hope the people he scammed get their money back and hopefully (Although I doubt it) this will serve as a lesson to other people who are thinking of similar scams.

    If we find other people acting in such an unfair way (Or any new incarnations) of the [Name removed by Forum Team] ) please ensure we use similar people power to see justice served.

    Gawd Bless the Tinternet.

    P.S Check out https://www.bitterwallet.com for an excellent hatchet job, if you know of any similar sites email them with this threads details. So we can bring this case to a wide audience as their are bound to be people who have lost money to [Name removed by Forum Team] (Bearing in mind he turned over £30k a month) who are not aware of the great work this thread has done and will feel some justice has been done. They might even be prompted to contact the D.S at Essex Police so they have further evidence

    Quite impressed that an Essex boy can think up a name as posh as "Serena"

    Hello [Name removed by Forum Team] . I'm sorry to see the rather unwelcoming reception you've received on this forum. It's plainly obvious you jumped on here to help deal with customer complaints, and you've been working hard to that end. With this in mind, I would be most grateful if you could elucidate on the current situation regarding impulsetechuk.com

    My understanding from reading your response on another forum is that you were previously unaware of this site. It was discovered that someone had set it up to be identical to the now defunct gcspcs.co.uk, using your details for registration. The reason for this is not yet apparent, although you note they may be trying to "make things look worse".

    To your credit you acted swiftly to remedy this by contacting 1&1 Internet Ltd, who may have liased with dkhosting.co.uk to have the site pulled down. The relationship between 1&1 and dkhosting.co.uk remains somewhat ambiguous at present, however, the desired result was attained.

    My concern is the claim that it was possible to log in to impulsetechuk.com using customer details for gcspcs.co.uk. This indicates a severe breach of data has arisen. An extremely serious situation I'm sure you'll agree.

    Firstly, I request that you make available the details of your registered data controller, as is your legal obligation, so that concerned customers can write to them for more information.

    Secondly, I would like to know what steps you are currently taking to safeguard your customers against what may be an attempt at fraudulent activity. I take it you have reported the suspicious behaviour of impulsetechuk.com to the relevant authorities? Please keep us informed on how this develops.

    Thank you for taking the time to address these concerns.

    Yes that's right 15 GCSE's it is possible because i did it - nothing less than a C and only 2 C's actually

    Clearly 'English Language' wasn't one of the GCSEs you passed. Or, judging by what's gone on previously, 'Law'.
