    What new company was it? I read up to when the OP got the money back, after reading through all the detective work everyone did.

    Anyway, Amir would be glad that the thread was deleted.

    If we repeat the name of the innocent company again, the same will happen. I thing "I love choclate" did that deliberately to sabotage the thread and succeeded. :(
  • Shame the old thread was removed, it contained some stella detective work that would put Scotland Yard to shame.

    Good to see a happy ending though :)

    'I love choclate' posted all sorts of nonsense to try and get the thread deleted, including over the top death threats, initially the mods just deleted a few posts but as the whole thread has now gone I assume their antics were finally succesful.

    A great shame as the thread was an important one for people looking to up their income tempted by the these sort of schemes.

    Do we think that 'choc' was maybe you know who?, as maybe I am missing something here, and I never actually got to read thier post or posts, as they had gone by the time I got to that bit.
    Still dont know what part choc played it in all?

    Fantastic thread though, I was on pins with every post.:D

    I personally think so given the content of the posts last night but no one knows for sure. There were no posts made on any other thread by said user before or after first ones were deleted and no more since. Maybe its co-incidental but reckon it would be a huge co-incidence (particularly as we know that you-know-who was reading every post throughout the thread.)
