Description of Bad Deal:

Hi guys. I have a deal that's gone bad unfortunately. I originally contacted @aubrey to make an offer that was less than the asking price on the sale thread. He agreed. The day after when I was going to pay I experienced very bad problems with my father in law passing away and a fall-out with my then current employers. I communicated all of this to @aubrey and he understood and said he will wait for me. I contacted @aubrey on sunday 02/06/2019 to let him know that i am ready to pay and the deal can move forward. He gave me the banking details and I payed on sunday +-19:00. The next morning @aubrey requested that i send a reference number of the proof of payment. I sent it to him immediatly. Later the same day i asked @aubrey if he came right with receiving my payment. He said he has not. The next day (04/06/2019) I asked @aubrey if he received my payment, he replied with "i spoke to the bank just past 2 the payment is awaiting clerens becouse its n first time payment and it was done at time past n surten time or something like that, im fighting to get it cleard today i sent them the ref you send me also, sorry about the waite man il wl send it tomorow morning when dhl oppens". The next day i contacted @aubrey again to ask if he came right with everything and he replied with this "more ek was 8:30 by hul toe is hulle sustem van lyn af sal oor so uur we probuer die pakkie sal vandag nog gestuur word". Its afrikaans and looseley translated means that he still hasn't sent it because dhl were offline and will try again in 1 hour. I told him that i am getting a bad feeling about this deal and i am starting to get paranoid. I also apologised to him for getting paranoid, its just that i am getting worried and it feels like there is allot of excuses. He told me that its okay and he understands and will send the package. Later that same day i asked him again if he came right with dhl. He read the message and ignored it. Today i sent him the same message just asking if he came right with dhl. Again he read it and ignored it, but also this time blocked me on whatsapp. I tried calling him but realised that he blocked me that way as well. I decided to message him on carbonite and let him know that i am unhappy with whats going on and that i am giving him time until 16:00 today to contact me back otherwise i am opening a criminal case against him. I also stated in that same message that if he is struggling with getting time to go to dhl that he shouls just communicate with me. But i have yet to hear anything from @aubrey since he started ignoring me yesterday +-9:00

@aubrey Please give your side of the story immediately.

jdoa46 when did you commence this deal?
aubrey has not been online since May 7, 2019 thus dont think he is going to be replying.
 
I contacted @aubrey on 29/04/2019 the first time on whatsapp after he accepted my offer on carbonite messaging on 27/04/2019
 
This same user wanted to buy a motherboard from me and stringed me along for a long while. Once I insisted thst payment is made and cleared first then he stopped bugging me. I'll see what number I have for him incase.
 
@jdoa46 please drop me a pm with the number you have for him so I can see if it matches or is different unless an admin would like us to post here?

@Ant_Shrew please let us know.
 
You may send me the numbers if you would like and I can send it to the effected parties. Please dont post a public number unless you know they are a scammer first.

Pm sent with the details I have
 
There is a link to an olx ad in one of the threads he posted which has a pin location of his address
 
No longer valid. It's possible that he's monitoring this thread.
More than likely but nothing we can do about that. We have all the info needed to open a criminal case thus deleting old posts doesnt matter.
Closing thread since there shouldnt be more that needs to be added.
