 :shocked: So caddylover isn't the scammer  :shocked:

I obviously got caught up in the confusion as did many other people on many forums.
I was linked to the original scammer threads on the escort/fiesta/manta which in turn were linked to a mk1 golf forum where a very similar thread was developing concerning a user called caddylover. In this thread caddylover had been labelled as the same scammer so when I saw the same thread from him on this forum I took a quick decision to warn people..........perhaps too quick!!!

I would therefore like to apologise to Martin (caddylover) for any grief which may have arisen from my original post on this forum.
It's unfortunate for him that the timing of his ad coincided with the scammer, it read very similar and his name is Martin, uncanny.

I'm not too sure, the writing and dodgy telephone number layout and punctuation are pretty typical of a scam.

Anyway, he didn't have anything I wanted!

I suppose that's the trouble with the anonaminity of the internet, it makes it all too easy for somebody to pull off this sort of scam in the first place. Likewise it makes it all to easy for a public forum flogging to take place when you suspect somebody of witchcraftery!!!
