Lestagirl Posted 14 May 2019 Posted 14 May 2019 For three years I have been helped and have helped get tickets on here.. met some great people and made some friends. But sadly there is always some one greedy and low life enough to try make money out of other good people. I was taken for 70 pounds by jaslcfc for two Chelsea tickets that never arrived.. he spent over a week lying to me on the phone and making ridiculous stories up. I had purchased West Ham tickets from him so thought I could trust him... probably part of the plan... He gave me a FAKE ST ref number said he and his "brother" were ST holders who could not make the match. He will probably be back with a new log in next season, I hope someone will maybe learn from my mistake.. I usually always ask for a photo of the tickets but as he had delivered on the West Ham I let my guard slip. I am annoyed about the money but very upset about my two friends who could not attend the Chelsea match because that piece of scum lied all along. I would be interested to know if anyone else had bad dealings with him as I am considering what steps I can do.
grobyfox1990 Posted 14 May 2019 Posted 14 May 2019 Awful, what a scumbag. I wonder if you could report this to the moderators or admin of this site who could trace him somehow? I doubt it and don't have the tech know-how, but maybe worth a try

I am not alone in being ripped off on here recently but not sure if it is the same person who has done it. We have to register when we join the forum so it is a possibility. Thank you for your reply.
Bayfox Posted 14 May 2019 Posted 14 May 2019 Sorry to hear. You've been a legit buyer and seller. Gives those that try to help and make genuine efforts at short notice with tickets that would result in empty seats a bad name.

It brings back memories of the Everton game when we lifted the trophy. In my desperation for tickets I was done for about £150. As gutted as I was I took it as a very expensive lesson, it won’t happen again. I hope you manage to learn something from the experience at the very least, but good luck going after the perpetrator! I hope you get your cash back. At the very least do try to report it to action fraud: https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/reporting-fraud-and-cyber-crime

red5 Posted 14 May 2019 Posted 14 May 2019 I was nearly ripped by someone called jit or jes, in 2016 was for either Everton or Wembley tickets.
VLC86 Posted 14 May 2019 Posted 14 May 2019 What a c unt, I hope we can figure out exactly where he sits and get the sad willy puller done.
Lestagirl Posted 14 May 2019 Author Posted 14 May 2019 Thanks for the responses. The name he gave me and supposed ST number does not exist at the Club. He said the STs he had for me were in B2.. I will do the fraud report thank you. I have his bank name and the name I made the payment too. I posted this so others can take extra care...

If you have that it might be worth letting the authorities know. If you have his account details and his real supposed name connected to that account there’s stuff that can be done...
rn9013 Posted 15 May 2019 Posted 15 May 2019 If you made a bank transfer rather than PayPal or similar, you should definitely contact your bank. They have the power to try and claw back the cash from the account it was sent if they suspect fraud or you can prove it was a mistake etc.
SemperEadem Posted 15 May 2019 Posted 15 May 2019 He also offered me a ticket for Chelsea. Dodged one there by the sounds of it.
Yes N'Didi Posted 15 May 2019 Posted 15 May 2019 @lcfcfoz got tickets from him for Newport away (which suggests he has a good away points count!) - did you have any details/reference that could help?

Definitely definitely go to your bank with these details then. Also google his sort code, this will tell you the bank and branch the person uses. If you have bank account details, your bank can do a lot. Don't give up and try every avenue! Scum like this need to be brought down!
Nick Posted 15 May 2019 Posted 15 May 2019 Keep checking your bank. I would imagine come Friday when he’s been paid he’ll send it back after viewing this thread. Let’s be honest, if he doesn’t he’s in for a world of worry.
Lestagirl Posted 15 May 2019 Author Posted 15 May 2019 Thank you...I have been to my bank and will definitely not let this go. I am sure other people have been scammed on here in fact I know they have, it can be embarrassing to admit to be taken like this but we need to share these things.

I didn't he just gave me his bank account and his fake ST holder number and where the seats were. That is interesting though about getting them for Newport..... he did eventually deliver the tickets for West Ham and I ended up losing 30 pounds on that because he did not deliver until the day before and the person I got one for bought elsewhere Lots of lessons learned. So jaslcfc has just paid me back my money... and I want to thank you all for your responses ...I am sure it helped. At the end of the day.. honesty really is the best policy.

Well I Didn't Actually Get These in the end. He phoned me and couldn't get them to me as he was abroad and forgot to post them. So he ended up getting me tickets in the away end instead. Great experience that day
grobyfox1990 Posted 15 May 2019 Posted 15 May 2019 Nice one @Lestagirl we should all share these stories to filter out the culprits in the future!

Great experience that day I, too, had a similar experience with this ‘seller’ for Wolves away in January as well. Full of excuses for 2 weeks but did eventually refund what I’d paid. Definitely wouldn’t recommend attempting to buy from in future.
Lestagirl Posted 15 May 2019 Author Posted 15 May 2019 Thank you for posting that and we all as grobyfox says need to post about bad experiences.
joachim1965 Posted 15 May 2019 Posted 15 May 2019 Good result, doubt he will sell anymore tickets on here.

People are using selling sites to "sell" a product that they don't have. They recieve the money use it and when they are paid themselves they return the money to the buyer with a reasoning along the lines of "i damaged it" etc. The buyer gets their money back in good faith and the seller hopes not to get a bad review because they were being honest about the damage and returned the money. Payday loans but without the interest.
Lestagirl Posted 17 May 2019 Author Posted 17 May 2019 Interesting that as he actually had my money for two weeks..who knows the way people work..but thanks for sharing that.
