Bad deal with Guiding_ink

Status
Not open for further replies
Update : Still no reply but I know Jan is a tough month
 
He used to have on when he was Reselling on Carbonite.
Seems like he is still reselling then though isn't it. Please send me your apology in the form of a nice Pale ale.

EDIT: Im obviously joking and know Toxic well enough to assume he is ok with the joke. The reason for the Edit is that in today's climate not having a disclaimer for a joke can be considered social suicide so here you go. ITS A JOKE.

I'll take a nice Pale Ale as an apology, I find disclaimers highly offensive😅
 
Just glad he chatted to you. I'm also in a bit of a communique with him.
 
Same here last time we spoke he said he could pay end of March
 
Haven't heard from him since mid March not going to update again until refunded (if)
 
Hi, found this thread while searching online for "fckeet".

Didn't make this a Carbonite issue, because my deal wasn't here but it seems Frikkie has managed to get us here too.

So it seems many of us have had the same experience with Frikkie.

In my case, he sold me cards at a very good price. I even collected it at his house with no problem. He built my trust over a few deals and eventually, I got greedy and wanted more. I tried to buy a combination of GTX1070s/1080s for 39k. The cards never came. This all happened in March of last year.

Since then I have heard stories of his bike, his wife, his brother, his father-in-law, oom Dawie, his Fortuner. It has been agony.

Only advise to others: Don't be kind and patient hoping for a solution. Speak to someone qualified as early as possible for the best legal options and take it from there.

As a side note: I was very careful to list cards that I did not have. The buyers were informed by me that I did not have the cards and their money was kept aside. I took money from two people here, who were aware that I was waiting for the cards. One requested their money back after a few days and received it immediately. The other left the money with me for a while longer (also hoping Frikkie would pull through) and received it as soon as he asked. I was reselling with a subscription at the time.
 
@Gwarrior would you like to respond? I'm getting tired of licking your ass for this. @Nobo112 in case you haven't noticed, @Guiding_Ink is @Gwarrior, he used to be Legion808. He's been reselling on Carbonite to make up money to pay back the people who lost money in the scam, but it seems like he hasn't come to the party.

@Gwarrior you have until the end of the week to refund @Nobo112 or I'm cutting off your access to Carbonite permanently, and I'll be sharing the information we have so he can make a case at SAPS. You promised to stay in touch and refund piece be piece, but it's been 7 months with no comms. Unacceptable.
 
@Gwarrior you've been online, yet no response. I highly suggest you state your side here, or I'll assume you abandoned this and act accordingly.
 
Just a thought... why doesnt @Gwarrior give an item of similar value from his actual stock in hand to @Nobo112 to make up the difference.

Even if he gives it away for considerable cheaper, at least the debt would be paid and we can start looking forward past this... at this rate no one will deal with you even if you refund the money in two months time..

Make the smart choice and save your business ...
 
@Toxxyc good day beautiful people. Since i am a victim of the guy that scammed me , that was also part of this forum i would like for you to invite him to the chat please.
@Nobo112 im extremely sorry that you have been a victim of scam because of me, i have really tried to collect funds together but it has been extremely difficult for me to just make enough for my survival as well. atleast give me credit for the funds i did pay you back
@Toxxyc since everything is pinned down on me (which i completely understand) Because it was handled through me and frikkie has just been pushed 1 side , i suggest you start a go fund me for @Nobo112 and maybe the generous people on this forum can help. I cant do that as i am the infamous "scammer"
if you have to ban me please do so because im also tired of this as it has hit me harder than most of you can think

thanks.

So just to clarify, under the new account name, he has been reselling on the forum for nearly a year and has done 42 deals, but in that time has failed to come up with the last R1750 for @Nobo112? (Apologies if this post isn't allowed on the bad deal thread).
 
@Gwarrior I did update the post accordingly when you partially paid. It was more the lack of communication to be honest. Nothing else to say really

Just to respond to this, so people can have some clarity here.

1. I can't invite Frikkie, I banned his account, as well as his wife's account and the 3 or 4 other accounts he tried to create after that.

2. You did get credit for the funds you did pay back. You got a free ride on here for a long time, you didn't pay a Reseller sub fee and I batted for you in that regard because you were paying him back. Then you stopped. So yeah, good on you for paying back a little bit of the money he lost. It's still not all of it, though.

3. Everything wasn't pinned on you. It was pinned on Frikkie. That's why both your accounts were allowed to remain active on here for so damn long. I even overlooked your duplicate accounts here that's typically an instant, permanent ban. Again, Frikkie wasn't pushed aside, his info was shared with other people he also scammed and they've gone and opened cases of Fraud against him.

4. GoFundMe? Really? Because you're the "infamous scammer"? Get over yourself. You're not refunding him, and you haven't even tried in what seems like more than half a year. You simply tried to sidestep the issue by created a new account and continuing the sell on here. Not cool.

I'm done licking your ass and sending you nice PMs to find out how it's going and when you're going to make another payment, or just simply respond to the guy. Hell, in the end you didn't even respond to me. My last 3 or 4 PMs just went unanswered. That kind of sums up your attitude though, I'd say, so there we have it - you're banned.
