Hi Jake,
This man seems connected with another supposedly from Loretto, take a look at this link to HMVF forum;
http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread...highlight=scam

Definitely one to be avoided.

regards, Richard

All the more reason for "like minded" individuals in the MV community to stick together.
Over here in Canada, our MV community is relatively small so it makes hacks quite apparent when they show up.
Knowing the who's who is of upmost importance.

This would be good as a dedicated thread to help avoid scams and such. Are there other known false identities people have come across lately?
