Fraudulent activity by a buyer/WARNING TO ALL MEMBERS

[James Gleeson]

Post a pic of him and 'your' equipment, and if i see him when I play Ill just take them off him and send them back.

While I'm not condoning or expressing intent to go and turn this petulant little boy into a Christmas tree, it's a free country. I just don't think it should be expressed or implied on a national forum that you'd be prepared to do anything of the sort.

Who are the grown ups here guys ?

If, IF he ever manages to worm his way onto a field. I have no doubt that we will all pass on @Dusty's best wishes. Also indeed, those of the ballers he is attempting to rip-off. I'm wondering if a certain member from the midlands who had the same intentions a couple of years ago and earned himself a national ban because of his attitude and actions must be very proud of the fact that he seems to have spawned some kind of deviant mini-me...

So far no on has made any serious suggestion however it may come to the point I ask someone to deliver a letter in case mine is intercepted.

At the end of the day I would like to get his parents involved and nip this in the bud. We have to give consideration to the parents who have done nothing wrong and at least a little warning before PC Plod comes knocking.

You'll do no such thing, while I'm sure the offer is appreciated he's the sort who would have you done and keep all the gear anyway.

lol, we wear masks.....

Oh I agree, perhaps even the postman will be struggling to deliver the volume of parcel-poop.com boxes that will no-doubt be winging their way to this young man. I'd feel quite bad if his "dad signed for it without him knowing" clearly not being the intended recipient.

I'll happily deliver a letter if the need should arise. It would totally be worth it, I'm assuming that you'd be adding your contact details into any correspondence so that his parents can get the idea of what sort of attitude we've all been seeing...

Someone who lives less than 5 miles from him has already volunteered

Yes it will have all the details to get in touch with me and a brief overview of what's been going on.

School is getting a call too

As much as we would all like to take matters into our own hands and deal with this young punk, the only way for it to be dealt with is through the proper authorities, the police, PayPal and even his school... A public shameing is always a good way to stain his name and maybe some overshooting if anyone comes across this guy on the field

Have logged this with the local nick, just need to pass details to uk fraud.

James Gleeson, if you attempt something like that then you yourself could be done for theft (no proof of previous ownership) and he could even sue for assault. You dont want to do something like that, could not only damage your reputation but the reputation of paintball in the long run. Just send him a parcel that no doubt so many other ballers will be sending him...

I didnt actually action anything, i just didnt reply to it as i thought TNT had lost it at the time.

thats cool then, pass all of this onto the fraud unit and hopefully it will highlight it enough for the police to get their teeth into it
