Alright as much as i do not want to put bad reputation to someone it has to be done,
here is the story,
It started with ddparne (rough spelling) he had a thread fs:tein ha
I arranged to buy these said type ha teins from daryn and paid a 200 dollar deposit direct to his bank acc,
after a few txts sorting payment we agreed that the goods wont be sent until the full amount of asked 800 was paid.
so a few weeks past, as i saved money to pay him, and then i get a txt from daryn saying he is moving to christchurch in a few weeks, he says not to deposit money just to save cash and he will bring them to christchurch for me to avoid shipping costs.
a few more weeks past so i contact daryn again. however no reply, seems his cell has been disconnected as no txts or phonecalls were going through, I start to get frustrated but after a private message on CVR4 i finally get a txt saying he will be in chch the coming monday
so monday comes and i txt him asking to pick up the teins but he says he is busy at a house auction and i cant come over and get them,
I think fair enough the man needs to sort his stuff out so i txt him on wednesday asking to meet up, he says his container full of belongings doesnt get to chch until thursday. ok cant pick up goods if they are not here yet (I also txt him on the tuesday, thursday saturday,sunday and monday. so i txt him on friday asking again, he says he has not unpacked yet.
another few days pass and he sends me and address in rolleston
42 Tennyson Street,
so i drove to rolleston on thursday night week before last looking for that address. turns out that address is in the middle of a park and does not exist.
after driving up and down tennyson over and over i went home and tried ringing daryn, his phone went straight to answerphone, so I left a message and left a few txts. how ever no reply for 1 and a half weeks and his phone still goes directly to answerphone (0211391304)
I private messaged him again on CVR4 to no result, no txt back no phone call no PM, I seriously think i have been ripped off 200 dollars,
I either want daryn to see this and turn up with the goods or some help with trying to get my money back or at least track this man down,
Thankyou for any help in advance
Adam.

thats my worry man, one cell number has been disconnected and the other has been going straight to answerphone for the past 2 weeks almost, and no club activity either, plus the fake adress he gave me

This is the same guy that wouldn't provide tracking details to a shipment of stuff he supposedly sent to one of the Jakarta guys. The Jakarta guy ended up getting his money back via paypal/credit card company.

If you can track him down, this might help:

Could use his rego number to get the address maybe if you know it?

Mate, I purchased a CarJam report on this rego a couple of weeks back trying to track him down, he is not listed as an owner at all for this car.

hmmm maybe if you contacted the other guy from Jakarta and ask him for any details he has for him , given that he took payment via pyapal so may have real address

thats an idea, and NJ if you or another committe member can pm me an email address associated with his cvr4 account so i can try contact him again

Sorry we are unable to give out any details without the prior permission of the individual

but if you select his profile and email him from there it should work ( as long as he has enabled the option in his profile )

This is now a case of fraud ... It may be worth reporting to the Police now. ClubVR4 should then provide any and all details to the relevant authorities at their formal and verified request as part of their investigation.

Wow, semi unrelated but that thread was the best read in a while, spent a good hour reading it - goes to prove the NZ legal system isn't quite the joke it's made out to be.

Note to self, never mess with that Aaron guy.

Surely there's someone on here that can pull some strings to locate the guy? We have his (possibly old) number plate, that should be enough to get us started?

If you have his old plate then you can get a history on the car.... but if he has moved it's not going to help that much really...

The courts will be able to track him down if they think it's worth it. It's just time consuming is all.
