Mr Bean, I hope you have also read the first thread on this that was locked. That ran to 25 pages.

How can you say that no-one has a case against him? Are you sure you have read this thread?

Then, just as he threatens, you guys do the exactly the same - if you want to go to police, do it, get a casenumber, and stay on top of it.

Threads like these are more to gauge the reaction of the general public, and to stir emotions, rather than sorting issues.

Sigh! Why is it that people from Oz always want to lecture us on what to do? Must be all that wombat shagging.

MrBean, I suggest reading the threads more closely. If what people have written is true, there are obvious and clear grounds for fraud and theft investigations, and clear VAT irregularities.

In respect of "sorting issues", I venture to suggest that nailing the guy will prevent others from experiencing more of the same, even if it does not "sort" all the issues mentioned here.

And if someone comes at me with threats, all sympathy flies out of the window, and there will be no forgiveness.

Was that really necesary? MrBean is a South African who moved to Oz and he has been around for ages. Remember him from the Planetmars forums.

Thank you Angellus ;) for clearing that up.

At least all of you, except one person have read and understood what I meant. I've been around for years, even registered here for quite a long time, but never bothered to post because of the reception noobs receive on this site - be it known this is nothing against the Mods, or Admins over here, you are doing a great job, but rather specific members who are not very welcoming to newbies, like myself.

It is easy to sit behind your keyboard, and type crap, let's think a little and at least act mature? Ek's in die Vrystaat gebore boet, in 1967, het daar groot geword, en is nou 3 maande in Oz - net so 'n Suid Afrikaner soos jy ;)

This is directed at JFBRobisher, in particular. If you made a joke, sorry, I did not see the fun it it...then I apologize for my reply, but this seemed done in a facetious manner.

And no, I am not Person, I don't come up for him, I think what he has done (some things at least) is not honest, and not commendable, and is despicable. What I tried to point out was that there is at least 2 guys here who could have or had the issues resolved, admittedly after a lot of emails, no replies, etc....and at least TheYak could have avoided a lot of personal stress.

Incube got his case back, and TheYak were given the option of sending the card to Legend - which he refuse to take. If it was me, I would have avoidd all stress, laid a charge at the Police after 2 weeks, and send the card away for warranty replacement.

@ Debbie: I did not read the other thread, as I understood it turned into a circus, so I won't waste my time. Obviously there might be people that is still awaiting either their money, goods, or answers, which may have a strong case against Person. If you feel this way, by all means go to the Authorities, and report it - but, your point is taken, and I partially agree to it.

But, guys and girls, the fact of the matter is you do not know that he did commit fraud against SARS, what he perceives to be a VAT registration number, may purely be a registered name number, which is different.

To say that he did commit fraud (at least against SARS) is slanderous, and he may have a legal point to stand on - take note, I refer to SARS only, not anything else.

Antithesis hits the nail on the head - as I mentioned previously, Person is dishonest, and deceitful.

He needs a good ban of all local forii, and some strong legal action against him if this facts is proven in a court.

At least, I won't have the ballz to drag Alienware (now Dell) into this, as they will take him to the cleaners, and leave him in jail to rot - if they can prove he caused harm to their Corporate image.

To you guys and girls that read and understood my previous post, thank you.

Br,
MrBean

Don't forget he promised to reimburse TheYak for his gfx card 3 months ago, he was basically giving it to him because he had to go thru crap to get it. He hasn't done so, and I suspect he won't.

Has incubate's issue been resolved? Did I miss something?

Very interesting thread/story

Would anyone be prepared to summarise this and send it through to me? Would make for quite an interesting topic on Talk Radio 702 / 567 Cape Talk. Mentioned it to a few producers and they would like to run with it.

I thought Incubate got his money back? Not the case he was after?

Yes he got a refund and was promised that the case would be delivered on Monday which it wasnt so he can source the case from somewhere else.

The sad thing is Person in online a lot reading this thread but is doing nothing to fix the situation. He isnt even posting with an apology.

No joke, mate.

Thankfully, not all are soft like you, and some actions have been taken to prevent future "irregularities" -

I've contacted SARS, BSA, Microsoft and OCZ giving them all the things we know about DotComputers and Brian Gibello and I know Alienware are currently looking into it.

Let us hope that they conduct thorough investigations into the alleged issues.

And please, even if you come from the Vrystaat, the plural of "forum" is "forums". At worst "fora", from the Latin neuter plural. But not "forii".

Can we try at least to keep this on topic please.

So requests the person trying to correct others peoples grammar/spelling/use of plurals.

It is very low of you to attack other peoples writing abilities.

Shame on you.

@ JBFRobbish: ignore mode = on ;)

@ ic: as I said, not many of us know the true nature of his transgressions, sure, if he did commit falonies, let him answer for his crimes - they will be investigated, and hopefully punished.

Problem with him seems to be, he is 19 or something, very young, and a lot of us were hotheads at that stage of our lifes - to proud to admit to mistakes, but, I doubt a lot of us were as deceitful and dishonest as he appears to be.

But yes, intersting to see what, if any action the big names, eg Microsoft, OCZ and Dell will take against him.

Jeesh, come think of it, if the charges are not just petty, and serious enough, he might be extradicted to USA to stand trial.....

@ Juggy: No problem, I will ignore him, no real issue for me. I am from the old school, matriculated 1985, so there are many "new" words or internet lingo if you will, that I need to learn, especially when conversing with mostly youngsters ;)

So, I also invented a new word, forii, who is he to tell me I can't? hehe

Sorry for off-topic guys, I now hope now JBF-dingeses had enough of insulting me...now we can carry on.

Thanx for the patience.

Would that be his first trip to the USA, or is he already in it? This is all getting quite confusing. :rolleyes: I'm not sure if Person knows anymore!

His next trip is probably his 1st one. At least from a business perspective.
