Max Power Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 https://www.iomtoday.co.im/news/crooked-car-dealer-jailed-for-series-of-outrageous-scams-on-isle-of-man-drivers-663939 Absolute bollocks, this guy was from a good and wealthy family and he's ripped off just about everyone he's ever met or sold a car to for over 25 years. The scale of his crimes are well beyond what he's been locked up for. He's conned his close friends and family, including several well known local residents at the time. The worst part is that the cnut got away with several import scams because of the implication of some high profile locals, who would have been liable for the VAT on cars that he had sold them without paying it! I have several friends who he has ripped off big time, I was sure he'd been murdered when he disappeared! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was well connected then surely he wouldn't even have been arrested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
