buyreddiesel .co.uk web site is a scam

---

I have recently been scammed by this 'company' apparently selling red diesel fuel. It seems to be a similar scam to the one involving domestic heating oil which has been reported by the BBC. They take your money and deliver nothing. It has been reported and West Yorkshire Police are currently investigating, but the web site is still up and the scam may still be operating - DO NOT BUY FROM THIS 'COMPANY'.
I can provide further details if anyone wants them.

Not even a convincing fake website.

Dear Vax2002 and gas4you

I have a diesel lawnmower for my business so I am a legitimate red diesel user. The police can dip my car any time. If I was an illegal user I would not have reported the scam to the police and I would not have posted this message about it. It was actually on the request of the West Yorkshire police that I posted the message.

Attitudes such as yours are not helpful, and help to create the environment in which the criminals flourish. I admit I was a fool to be taken in. Perhaps you could do similarly and apologise, and perhaps try to make more helpful comments in future.

I have an idea - if you want to help stop other people becoming victims, then perhaps you can suggest other web sites on which this scam can be notified, or even do it yourself.

P.S. What we need to do is get information about the scam higher in the Google rankings than the scam web site itself - Will you help?

I have 3 tractors, 2 generators, a forklift, 2 excavators and a loader. You are welcome to come and dip my car tank too.

Ok Roland, I was too quick to judge.

But what I never understand is why people generally are always looking to save that little bit extra. Looking for theses savings makes one a prime target for rip off sites etc.

I always find suppliers etc that I am happy with then stick with them, even if they are more expensive.

But then I suppose that is against the ethos of this site in general.

Why do you / they not simply take the story to the press?

ihateyes

the fact their address is incomplete should have alarm bells ringing.....
no payments accepted by debit/credit cards either!

Well dodgy!
