Looks like I have also been had for £300 for 2 vouchers. Contacted Humberside Police yesterday and they are arranging to send an officer to take a statement as they already have a file on this individual. Have spoken with my credit card company but they were not very helpful - said that they could not look at the matter until after the end of October 08 when the offer expires. Has anyone got a copy of the original offer on ebay that states the date by which the break has to be taken by. The voucher I have does not show an expiry date.
I only had an e-mail containing a booking reference number from them. When I tried to go back on Ebay, the page that it was advertised on had been removed along with all other info about his sales. So I rang the Ebay help line, at first they said they couldn't help but when I explained all that I wanted was a copy of the wording that included the valid to and from dates, She said she could copy and Paste them in an email but they wouldn't be in the auction format. My bank seemed ok with this as the email came from Ebay. (But I still have to wait till october!)
It was for Euro Disney trip for 4.
Hope this helps.0 -
Hi guys, I CAN confirm that this foul and evil, good for nothing has been arrested this morning by Manchester Met Police. He was living in the appartments above the Hilton Hotel in Deansgate Manchester. He had invited me to an interview with him, at his appartment, for his new company Prestige Rail. When I asked about what I needed to bring with me to the interview (please bear in mind that it was for his PA and first class rail host) he replyed "Nothing I don't do formal interviews, just casual no need to dress up, jeans etc are fine!" bells started ringing so I called my friend and explained everything to her, she then googled his name as Nathan Scott Prestige Rail, and this site came up we spent all night thrawling through the pages reading every last detail in amazement. This man who was about to interview me just hours away had done all of this to you guys and I wasn't standing for it!!!! I read that Humberside police were looking for him then it turned out that the Welsh police had a warrant for his arrest!!! so my friend called the Humberside police and was told to contact Man Met, so she did. after numorous phone calls between me, my friend and the police they got enough information to arrest him. Meanwhile this was happening, Nathan took it uppon himself to send me obscene text messages telling me what he was going to do to me in the interview!!! at this point I sent him a text to say I was'nt attending the interview. I woke up this morning to a text off of him saying that he was on holiday next week so I needed to act fast. The police called me once again to gather some bit of info to confirm everything. I just recieved a call from the Man Met explaining that is arrest was successful, he was arrested for numorous other things aswell as there being a struggle he said (probably could'nt get the fat pig out of the door haha) and thanked me for my co-operation.
I cannot believe that this man has done what he has done, I really feel for you guys that have been scammed by this creature. So hopefully you can all now be relieved that this man is behind bars, unfortunately you probably won't get you money back but this is a start. I you want to speak to me pm me and I will get back to you asap
Once again I really feel for you

My friend has just been in contact asking me to check out google and found this info.
According to info regarding other cons by Nathan Hudson/Scott he was arrested in Manchester today at 1330.
Let's hope this is true so that no-one else can be conned out of their money.
Just to make sure it's the same person he's a tall man, 6' 1", well buil.
Like the rest of us I've been conned out of over £1000 for flights to Australia in November/December.0 -

Thanks for this information, it tallies up with an address that I was given back in August - I am just waiting to hear from the officer at Humberside police so I can hear this delightful news for myself...and will post a message when I hear back also.0 -
I have also been a victim of this scam through rainbow horizons.. Can any one advise me what to do ? I paid through a visa debit card, does this mean I can claim a chargeback ? And who would be the best police force to report this to, who seems to be running the active investigation ... ?0

You should contact your Banks 'Chargeback Analyst/Department', and request a Chargeback for "Goods not Received" and inform them of the situation- you will need to provide them proof of purchase and any details you have regarding the purchase and Rainbow Horizons.
I would recommend logging your complaint with Trading Standards & Humberside Police who already have a huge file on him. If you are with Barclays send me a personal message and I can provide you with all the relevant contact details. Regards0 -

Do you know how I could find out where/what time this would take place as I am very interested in attending court to see if this this little S*** gets what he deserves (doubtful I know). Although I can't imagine he will be sentenced that soon as it would probably take a year to gather all the evidence for the number of crimes he has commited?!0
