    Just read this whole thread front to back.

    I cant believe what this guy has done! I only hope his prison cellmates also see how bad this is and teach him a lesson =)

    Sadly, that sort of treatment is only reserved for a select few prisoners - we all know the type.

    I did some voluntary work with prisoners when I was at college, and found that it was more of a criminal skills school that the rehabilition/punishment it is supposed to be.
    I've lost faith in the justice system due to too much interference by the political correctness brigade.

    I to was scammed by this guy for £15 along with probably 100's of other people on a website called fitlads.net where he was advertising an Alton towers trip for gay guys, admittedly not for £1000's like some people but the amounts would have mounted up. He was advertising at least 4 or 5 coaches which were all apparently filled. I know of lots of other people that were conned by this guy.

    Do you have contact with those people, as I would like to give you the contact details of the police officer & police force in charge so that you can report this to him? I am just a little fed up of the time and interest they are taking in this case and am keen for them to get more reports filed on this individual. You can also contact your local police force to obtain a Crime Reference Number - Don't take 'No this is a cival dispute' as an answer, give them a copy of this thread and ensure they are aware of his arrest as one Police Force doesn't seem to know what the other is doing. Feel free to send me a Personal Message and I will give you all the details you need.

    GOOD NEWS - NATHAN 'THE CON MAN' HUDSON has been sentenced to 2 years behind bars and Confiscation of proceeds of crime will be reviewed/heard in June 09.

    BAD NEWS - This is not for any of the crimes that have been reported on this Forum.

    If you wish to take your case further and you have had no joy with your local Police Station, please register your complaint with the IPCC (Independent Police Complaints Commision) & Home Office

    email : [EMAIL="enquiries&#64;ipcc.gsi.gov.uk"]enquiries@ipcc.gsi.gov.uk[/EMAIL] & [EMAIL="public.enquiries&#64;homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk"]public.enquiries@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk[/EMAIL]

    Ideally you will need to give them the date you attempted to obtain a crime reference number, who you spoke to (collar number) and the Police station involved.

    Good Luck

    For everthing else there's mastercard.
    For clampers there's Barclaycard.
  • just been reading about nathan

    i cant believe this has been ongoing

    nathan moved to the isle of man in 2003/2004 and he was jailed here for fraud back then. he only served a few months and was barred from coming back to the island for 5 years.

    he was apparenlty arrested when he got back to the uk

    he had already been in jail before for fraud which included frauding his father . i met his father on the isle of man when we phoned to tell him nathan was arrested. if anyone wants more info on the situation email me or pm me

    Yet this is not related to the Ebay crimes - I am still trying to get the Police to unravel the extent of Fraud commited on Ebay (which was HUGE)!!

    If you are one of those Ebayers affected, please let me know and I will give you the collar numbers of all the Police officers involved so we can pester them collectively!!!

    Does anyone know what he is up to now. I heard he had set up a new company called Dash Coaches or Dash Travel.
  • Who is watching him and how do they know where he is?

    Sadly this guy is still at it, currently attempting to scam people under the guise of Dash Travel Group. He has attempted to scam the company I work for twice and managed it quite successfully the first time around this time under the name of Daniel Craig. But alarm bells rang when Mr Scott popped up as a potential customer late last year. I have spoken to the guy on the phone very recently...
