No she isn't the one from Manchester, totally unconnected girl who is getting so much abuse, bless her. Poppy is currently using the name Poppy Valentine on her facebook www.facebook.com/poppy.v.eastwood?fref=ts

Cant believe she is still doing it. Just put a wanted AD for a saddle we're looking for, absolutely terrified to reply to any Pm's incase its a scam from her. So im sorry to the genuine people who have Pm'd me, but until this has been dealt we dont feel 'safe' to purchase anything. Just out of interest, is the Poppy Eastwood in question find-able on FB? I searched her name on there and I can only persume she is the one from Manchester? Ask for a landline number, this should prevent anyone scamming you. Also as advised by the Mods, only pay via paypal, if you link your account to a credit card and not a debit card you will get double protection on large purchases.

Surely if a strong enough case can be built they will finally do something to stop her.

Yeah shes been getting all sorts of abuse, shes speaking to the police about it and fraud action esp now bad poppy is saying shes from Manchester (amongst other places) it would seem that bad poppy has realised good poppy is taking some of the flack for her wrong doings so it trying to make people think that it is the other poppy doing it.
This isn't a new thing, Ive known poppy, well known of her since she was a kid at school as I used to run a forum which was quite popular with horsey people in Kent and Poppy was a member.... she was ok for a few years, then it seems she kept getting in with trouble makers and causing all sorts of trouble, then about 4-5 years ago she started to sell dodgy stuff, like phones which were working when people collected them and then got blocked a day or two after. She left a lot of local yards owning money and for the past 4 - 5 years at least everytime she seems to be mentioned it was about something unsavoury. I do think shes unwell mentally, not that that is an excuse for what shes doing to people but she cant be right in the head to honestly think she isn't going to get caught in the end, despite all the noise about what shes doing, she is still doing it!

One day though sej she'll cross the wrong person and then who knows where it will end - with a bit of luck...
I don't think she's ' mentally unwell at all, as she was perfectly aware of what she was doing when she scammed me - she's just an evil cow, pure and simple and I do hope that when it all catches up with her, she is punished severely by the law and put away for a very long time!

I cant believe this is still going on and the police or fraud people cant stop her. On here is her picture, her mobile number, her address and her bank details. There is a facebook page about her and lots and lots of victims. How much longer have we geniune buyers and sellers got to keep looking over our shoulders?

I am 8 months pregnant not having an easy time (not that it makes any difference as it shouldn't matter if 5p taken from a millionaire-it's not hers to take!!!) and she has scammed me. I am cross upset and seriously want this sorted. I have scrolled through all of the pages for hours collecting information that the police should be doing. I have been in touch with fraud and tried banks today who really don't give a XXXX! I will update the police with my statement again tomorrow with everything I have found out but feel free to add info and I'll ring it through. I am not letting this lie. I have her address etc as do the police so why is she still able to do it. By the way I live Cheshire so if she uses my address to scam please contact me to let me know and I will confirm my address but rather not post it! Pretty worried by the fact she has alot of info on me as it is! Sorry to those who have also been scammed but lets get the fake boobed, false lipped, blonde haired, tarty tramp who is scamming us honest people. A little carmer due here-what goes around comes around hey!

I have informed moderators too now I have been in touch with Fraud as I don't want any of my details she has being used obviously. I hope people see this and read it as I didn't until AFTER the scam. Had I have read the names before being contacted I would have known. Maybe the list of names needs to be the home page so everyone sees it before advertising a wanted item as not everyone will open the Warning Sophie Blanchett Page first until they have been scammed and wish to dig for info like me!
NAMES ARE BELIEVED TO BE: Kirsty Shadow, Penny Mc Carthy, Catherine Jenkins, Katie Barratt, Kirsty Laws, AND HER BEAUTY TO ME JOY ALKINS!!!
If you have had anything please log it with Fraud 03001232040. They are lovely and will take a statement but not tell you anything regarding investigation. We will only catch her/him/it/thing along with many other names I can think of if we report it. I was told the amount she has scammed doesn't matter but make sure it is reported! We are too trusting that is the problem!
