    I just tried to have a look at this website as Mr-D has been giving me updates on it all day. However, when I go to the site I am greeted by a picture of a padlock and a message that tells me that I have been forbidden access to the site and the company and can't place any orders (shame). Repeated attempts to do so will result in me being reported to the police! Oh how we laughed. There is also a phone number to ring if I want to be granted access but I think I can live without it. :rotfl:

    I wonder if one of Master [Name removed by Forum Team] GCSE's was in IT as although I have been banned for being a naughty boy (ok so setting up a fake account on his webiste is bad) I can still get on there by using a proxy. Am still laughing at his T/C's and the fact that everying on his site is overpriced and the muppet cannot fulfil orders.

    Moron alert!!!

    What is alarming is that there appears to be a Google Checkout on the site, so shall we put together a nice pack to send to them with a request to investigate?

    And should the moron still read these forums, no I will not be making the purchase!

    Please, I beg you all do not buy from this man! I do not understand how he can still be trading?

    Exactly, so why is he? What about the people that have been ripped of - there's no feedback here from those that have been in over two months.

    There's something not quite right here.....

    The site is still active, and the terms have not changed. Payment still goes through Google checkout. Still no contact email address or phone numbers.

    So I wonder what the results of the police/TS investigation were. Surely something must have been done by now?

    Google withdrew card processing facilities some time ago with [Name removed by Forum Team] owing Google thousands of pounds and not paying it back; he then moved on to PayPal, Protx, Barclays etc all of which eventually withdrew their card processing facilities.

    He now has Google Checkout again and the only way he achieved this is by creating a different email address to create the account; it is as simple as that; the fact that the facility is then linked to the same website is not spotted by Google.

    I have emailed Google; do the same, bombard them at checkout-support@google.com

    Cheers
