you stupid bloody rabbit
you have let all that sun go to your head, good job winter has set in other wise you would be in a coma by now.
if i were to go back to cyprus, i would do a few scams, get my own back on a few beggers.
perfect example, when i was there a couple of months ago, two guys (cypriot) one a developer and the oher a so called football club manager (who happened to hate me so much as i had everthing he wanted if you get my drift!
anyway these guys wanted two cars each, never seen them, one a merc and one an audi.
offered me two cheques for 10,000 euros and the rest at the end of the month.
these so called business men clung on like a couple of clingers all week offering to help and were as nice as pie. kept ringing me to offer to help, can we take you anywhere?!!
and what was it all for, to take the cars and bounce the cheques.
and they hadnt even seen the cars.
would you pay 25.000 euros for two cars you havent even seen, would you fuck!
so yes i told them both to f***off.
thats how sly they are
So, let me get this right. They gave you 2 cheques totaling 10,000 euros and they bounced? or are you presuming they were going to bounce?
Did they want you to sign them over the car deeds without getting the full amount?
NO i didnt sell them the cars.
yes they wanted the paperwork for both cars.
they wanted to pay with cheques.
after i said no i didnt hear from either of them after that.
i mean one of them had just explained he cant pay me the rent of which he owes since febuary (talk about free rent) his answer was "fine get me out, it will take you years, no solicitor will help you because you are phucking english" then half an hour later after talking in greek to his chum they reached the desicion that they wanted the two cars with the papers with two cheques and the rest of the payment at a later date.
ive seen it all before im afraid.
these guys were really going out of there way to help me or should i say offering to help untill they didnt get the cars then i didnt hear from them.
the two guys are also scamming something else which isnt good at all.
its disgusting
