Think she has given a landline so doubt it. I am very wary now. Won't be buying or selling online any more. Lesson learned but will be kicking her butt first (through the correct lines on the law in case anyone thinks differently.) She has messed with wrong person as I am like a dog with a bone and will not rest until justice has been done! I always get there in the end as I am tenacious and annoying! I hope police are ready for me badgering them daily as I will be! X

I think the number on that particular advert is a landline number and they have been a member for quite a while, prices also look a normal not cheap to pull in the punters, this scammer from what I have gathered does not work using land lines only mobiles, this could be a genuine advert, needs checking out further before blowing the whistle.

Talking about scams, my partner has recently been looking into purchasing a compact tractor, he has found some on ebay about 25% less than the standard price, he did a lot of research and found that they were scams, nothing to do with Poppy I must add, once again they did not want payment via paypal, we have all been advised by the Mods about only using paypal for purchases so please if it seems too good to be true it probably is!

Oh I am cross with myself for being so stupid as never usually work in this way and won't be again its the baby brain but lets face it cheap or not it's fraud! We all need to be more aware, less trusting and gain all relevant info. Only use paypal, credit cards or anything allowing you to redeem your own money! The frustrating thing is banks can do nothing at all! Not interested even though I have reems of information inc bank details, account no her address, phone numbers e-mails etc, they won't can't do anything so whilst sat here typing someone else is foolishly sending her money and banks are OK with this! No one knows who to talk to how to take it higher or just give you the Action fraud number 03001232040 which is the first place I contacted. (Feellike a change of career it seems you can be fraudulant and get away with it quite easily as nothing gets done!!! (JOKE!)

I am beginning to wonder if this is why I cant sell my fylde majorie saddle. when ever I have advertised one they have always gone straight away. but I have put mine on here, horsequest, facebook ect. and not had one person interested. which I find hard to believe, it is hard to believe that this person has caused so much misery and heartache to honest working people by taking there money. she wants a prison sentence.

I suggested someone who has collated all the info about her - names, addresses, ip addresses, phone numbers, aliases etc etc contacts preloved and warns them about her. she will no doubt be trawling their website also for victims and forewarned is forearmed and all that, They may be able to put a warning on there too (though in all likelihood she has already scammed people off there anyway so they may be aware of her) Although everyone promotes paypal it is not foolproof and I got scammed via paypal and had to involve the police. There is a sneaky loophole the scammers use. I am not publishing it on here as the wrong people will see it but the ONLY way to ensure you get your goods is to go armed with cash and collect in person. |

She doesn't even manage to give the correct postcodes for addresses!! So how she gets away with what she does alone it questionable. It is ridiculous that she has not been locked away; going through the fb group for her/it/them she has scammed thousands. It is a sorry state of affairs that she is being allowed to get away with this. If she is working in a bank, is there no one in the area who can go round the banks looking for her? Although it should not be necessary for her victims to have to look for her!!! I do not understand why there are not more people who know of her that would give more details on her whereabouts other than the parents house, she must have a lot of enemies by now! |

I think the problem is that she scams people for relatively small amounts of money i.e. the price of a saddle or an ipad. I am not saying this amount is insignificant to you or I but to the fraud teams it is. They arent that interested as they are busy trying to trace the massive amounts people scam on credit cards etc and are so busy trying to pursue the big criminals they havent time for this vile piece of work. I also think that for £400 say most law abiding citizens recognise the fact that it is not worth getting a criminal record themselves dishing out retribution to this individual and therefore she continues to get away with it.
At some point she may scam the wrong person of course who wont care about the repercussions for whatever they inflict on her.

Hi ponymum,
They are currently not in production ,Don't get Done, Get Dom, but Watchdog is - would be appropriate, being that she's a dog lol - and they are also on my list of people that I've contacted. I'm going to try Yvette Cooper now, as haven't tried her and if she is on a mission regards this particular type of crime, then she's got to be worth a try.
I still hope she scams someone who really doesn't care about the consequences and gives her a good pasting, that would be the best thing to happen to her in my book

I think the thing with watchdog is that if loads contact them with the same person scamming them, they are more likely to investigate!

AND AGAIN!!!! I have been in touch with Kent Police-If you want to know more there is a FB page Scammed by Poppy Eastwood! Get reading there is alot of info on her on there too!!! I had a PM from this lady-glad I saved her. I am asking mods to put a MUST READ PAGE ON WANTED ADVERTS REGARDING THESE FACTS BEFORE PLACING ADVERT.WE NEED TO STOP THE SCAM BEFORE ITS TOO LATE FOR MORE INNOCENT PEOPLE! SHE ALSO APPROACHES THROUGH PERSONAL E_MAIL NOT PM AS FAR AS I CAN SEE SO DON'T GIVE E-MAIL ADDRESS ON HERE THAT WAY SHE HAS TO PM YOU AND WEBSITE HAS EVIDENCE OF HER GETTING IN TOUCH X Hi Laura, Just to let you know that I had an approach from someone calling themselves Louise Barrett offering me a Fylde Samantha. I got the impression that something wasn't right when I asked if I could pick the saddle up and pay cash on collection and she claimed to be away. She also claimed that there was a problem with her Paypal account. Needless to say, I didn't part with any money. I have reported it to the mods but also wanted to thank you - I saw your 'shout' when I logged on and really appreciated knowing that I wasn't the only one Thanks again, Jacqui Read more: horsegossip.proboards.com/conversation/1665803#ixzz2fwRqzLQw |
