Several PPC cards on Amibench

[PulsatingQuasar]

Hmmmmm......I think I will also send my details to be included in the letter to the police in Germany. I don't think the BlizzardPPC will ever arrive anymore so it's time to nail this guy.

Also, spread the word I think. He should never make an Amiga sale ever again.

Just wanted to let you know I just got an email from Tibor Tóth:

Hi xxxxx!

I sent you last week the copy of the voucher from your parcel.

So long

NEU : XXX Internet.FreeDSL
Ab sofort DSL-Tarif ohne Grundgebühr: http://www.xxx.xx/dsl

Considering his email provider, wouldn't a real amigan, who sell hardware to several countries and wants a good rep, have an emailadress without commercial in it?

Now I'm doubting if Mr. Binder and Tibor actually are the same person. Any thoughts?

[preacher]

Here's a short update. I tried to send a reply to Tibor and this is what I got :

   ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
    (reason: 550 5.1.1 {mx022} ... User is unknown)

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to mx0.xxx.xx.:

Seems like our friend has closed his account with the email provider, for some reason.
And I don't like it...

[NightShade737]

All GMX accounts where the e-mail is sent from the webmail interface have advertising added on to them. I have just sent an e-mail to see if it bounces too.

Why did you X out gmx.net anyway?

[preacher]

Well, why not? Thought it would be best...

[odin]

Perhaps you can try the emailaddress from Karoly Toth? I gave jaxanim this address.

[PulsatingQuasar]

Well, I also tried the E-mail. No luck.

So this sucks. This guy needs to be seriously run over by a car or something.

If he closed the account we'll only be able to trace the IP(s) of the person that used that mail for a short time. And given the time the authorities take to act in general, by the time they try to identify the owner of the e-mail address it won't be possible anymore.
Maybe we should also contact Paypal and explain the situation to them. Then they could retain the iformation associated with that email's account.
Actually, all of us that payed using Paypal should make a compalaint explaining the situation, even if the deadline for getting a refund still passed out.  
Any more ideas regarding this :-?
I'm having some work to finish now , but I'll back on the net wednesday or thursday...

@odin

I emailed 'Karoly Toth' about the situation with his friend Binder, but got no reply. Seems Binder and the Toth duo are either in league with each other or they are one and the same person (Binder).

@everyone

Yesterday, I received a last minute request to add someone to the list of names. I'm awaiting his full details and will get the letter off to the Police as soon as possible. I will confirm this as soon as it's done.

If there's anyone else on AmigaOrg who thinks they should be on the list, but for some reason haven't said so, THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE to be included. Please send me your real name and address, phone number, email address, the card you ordered and the price you paid. NOW!!

Either PM me here or email me at the address shown in my Aorg Profile.

If you don't, then you'll have to contact Albstadt Police yourself.

Cheers,

JaX

I can't believe he's cancelled the email address.  It's pathetic really.

[Acill]

I am not surprised that he closed it. My guess is he read the thread I was in with several others and the DCE thing and our PPC cards. Since nohing was ever done to DCE he just may have got the idea to "sell" some PPC cards from Germany and never deliver. Good luck with the police. I am still waiting for some action from them on the DCE matter.

This looks a bit fishy! The cheeky little monkey! :-D

-edit-

I think this battle is lost. The Police will do next to {bleep} in this and that little {bleep} is laughing all the way to rip off his next victim.

@CU: I noticed that advert too. To other people considering it: DON'T BOTHER, that is DEFINATELY a fraud. Top of the range PPC Cards with a PPC Vision Card don't go for €150!

[Ryu]

has someone reported the offending advert to the amibench team?

[x56h34]

It really doesn't matter from Binder's point of view if this Police reporting business forces him to return the $$$ or not, but if we do report him we have a chance of creating an official police record, which I can only HOPE will affect what ever he tries to do for the rest of his life involving jobs, investments, money, loans, credits, etc.

[JaXanim]

@x56h34

For the fraudulent theft of well over 2,000 Euros, he may face a jail sentence if convicted.

@All concerned

I have now received the final details for the letter. There will be no further additions now, because I have to redraft it and print it tonight, ready for posting tomorrow.

Cheers,
