ARREST MADE TONIGHT FOR DODGY ROUND
« on: December 15, 2008, 09:44:31 pm »
AS you can see i am a new member and joined in the last week. I feel morally obligated to inform JONAH and alot of other members who criticized him, when he was quite correct in having SERIOUS concerns of a post which was made by  Stuart Booth (aka qcs cleaning, Aka scott marshall, aka michael Gorden, aka Dean Daunton etc.. ect...) selling work in surrey. Thanks to Jonah raising these concerns i was able to meet Stuart Booth who was selling work that didnt exist. In the last 2 months he has sold 2 rounds to different people -for the sum of 8k. Foolishly the 2 parties one of which was me parted with a 'deposit' only to find out that the work didnt exist. Stuart Booth is his real name and through a sting operation he was arrested tonight and is having his house searched by the fraud squad as we speak.
This man uses 10-12 different names with different addresses and mobile numbers and when i was 'done last week' i started searching forums like this to see if i could somehow find a link ?? Thanks to Jonah when i typed in dodgy round i found a person called stuart booth( who i knew as Michael gordon ) when i read the MASSIVE THREAD that started with Stuart Booth trying to sell a round in surrey it became clear there were definate similarities-yet Jonah was laughed at, humilitated and even made to apologise for what i would now call 'Due Diligence' Jonah i dont know you but many thanks!!! if you had never raised your concerns in Feb this year we might never have caught him tonight. Thanks too for this forum and the moderators who moniter it!!!!!

Hi  Flybefly,

Just recently I responded to an advert from Micheal Gorden regarding a window cleaning round that was a priced very cheaply. He replied that due to the amount of interest he was asking for half the money up front to scare of the messers & dreamers.  I declined.

would IT BE OK TO POST HIS EMAIL TO ME on cleanitup?

Kevin WINDOLENE.

Hi Kevin i have sent you an email to your address. Wether you decide to post it on this forum is up to you. But this guy has posed as both scott marshall and stuart booth on this very forum. I witnessed tonight first hand him trying to do it to a 3rd person! For anyone else reading this jokes aside i am not Jonah and the twofold purpose in posting this was  to thank Jonah but more importantly to save people the pain i and who knows how many other victims of this fraudster have suffered.

The link is still on the net with his details :- www.windowcleaningroundforsale.co.uk/html/rounds5.html

Someone else posted a warning some time back on another forum and it was not Jonah about this happening in Surrey.

Flybe many thanks for the warning. Guys this does happen, I have heard so many true stories of this happening and lives effected. This is why I am putting all effort in the licensing system in Scotland as my pet hate is people being ripped off.

Cheers

Doug

Thanks Doug i really dont know who this has affected but needless to say if you know or think you know of anyone who has been affected by this guy i would advise you to contact SUTTON POLICE as they are now putting all the evidence together.

PLEASE REMEMBER- This guys real name is Stuart Booth but he uses a host of different names!

I think we should ask wc resources to confrim why the site has been taken off, then the truth will be made known. But his email address seems odd.Enough from me, not judging :-
