Is this guy for real?? :think:
Maybe the tech guys at MSE central can put a trace on his IP address and pass the info onto the fraud squad, banks, HMRC etc....then we'll see who's laughing0 -
Yes but if Martin provides your IP and time of posting to the authorities Three can confirm to them the name and address of the owner of the account who's IP was connected at that time I'm afraid.
Nothing against you personally, just pointing out that this is easily done and a commonly used practice.Cashback Earned ¦ Nectar Points £68 ¦ Natoinwide Select £62 ¦ Aqua Reward £100 ¦ Amex Platinum £48

Fraud is very hard to prove my relative works in cid!!! she even admitted when it comes to banks the police leave it for the banks to figure out!. Its not for 100k more gross mismanagement of finances than fraud with a top brief for say £2k your getting nowt!
Fraud is very hard to prove but I personally think an open admission to having committed it via a public forum on an IP address directly traceable to you is a very bad idea and very easy for the bank to use if they felt so inclined to do so.
It is of course, the prerogative of all those who choose to do itCashback Earned ¦ Nectar Points £68 ¦ Natoinwide Select £62 ¦ Aqua Reward £100 ¦ Amex Platinum £48

Tell you what its a 3 dongle and on a contract hope this helps! oh and ps my ip address is in staffordshire yet i live near the border of wales!!! hope this helps you little welsh grass
Why would it help me? I only made a suggestion. I'm not the person with the power to trace your IP address and I'm not the one openly bragging about commiting fraud and riping off the banks on a public forum.
Now why don't you quietly dissappear and go live out your fantasies on a more suitable forum.0 -
Sadly, this <enter expletive of choice here> isn't ripping off the banks - he's ripping the rest of us off as the banks just pass the costs of his activities on to us through higher interest rates.
That said, they're probably just a troll (IMHO)My posts are my own opinions based on my experiences and info gathered from sites such as this.
They are not a substitute for professional financial advice - but you knew that already didn't you?VSP 2011 - Member #25 - Started 6th December 2010 - Total As Of 4th May 2011 (21 weeks in!) - £323.67/£500 - So far so good!0 -
