243deer Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) Sorry I cannot find the thread I read about this ******** on another forum - do not send any money - you will lose it!! He has cloned the site of a genuine clay ground. They know about it but are powerless to stop it. Give me a while and I will try and find the link again to the real site.

The address on the site is Jonathans home address, I believe he runs the Mayfair shooting centre in Sunderland and also Tyne Valley rifle club. I used to be a member of Tyne Valley for a number of years and never had any problems dealing with Jonathan. I also know several other members of both clubs that post on PW.

I think you need to inform him of the webpage as i strongly think its something fishy as these scopes were being offered a while ago by a company near heathrow. There was a post on here or SD about it. 20 hours ago, 243deer said: Sorry I cannot find the thread I read about this ******** on another forum - do not send any money - you will lose it!!

phaedra1106 Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) That's not Jonathans mobile number or the email address for either the Tyne Valley or Mayfair clubs, I've tried ringing him but just get voicemail. I'll try him again later and see if he knows about this. Update. heard back from Jonathan, def. not him, he never registered the web site. Apparently this is the 5th or 6th time that site has been cloned. Edited February 7, 2018 by phaedra1106 Updated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indrek Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hello gentlemen Some three weeks ago we ordered and paid around 2500 euros for rifle scope and range finder. It seems that l lost my money and stuff? Is there any sence to write a statement to UK police ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad93 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 You need to speak to the citizens advice bureau and your bank. Did you pay via credit card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
243deer Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hi Indrek sorry to hear. I think that you should report first to your local police. It should be logged as internet fraud - I would be surprised if they did not have a team already in place to tackle this type of crime. I regret I do not know how cross border crime within the EU is treated but I would hope that there is some law in place that can apply. In the UK our policing system is still run on a localised basis rather than nationally so tracking down which police force to report to over here might not be very easy.

Indrek Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Payment was done by bank transfere to his company account. Maybe the easiest way to get cash back is to use some local incasso guys ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeShot Posted February 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Intersting - account was suspended - looks like things were noted...
