Right, we need to take action. Its all well and good posting on here but something needs to be done about these scammers. There is also another forum on here regarding NUS with the same comments from innocent people getting scammed.
I note someone has reported to trading standards, how far did you get?
What if we all join forces with our business details and report to Trading Standards in one go & Companies House while we are at it, actually why not watchdog to.
What do you think??

Companies House ..... waste of time
Police ..................... waste of time
Action Fraud ........... waste of time
OFT ....................... waste of time
writing to ANY of the NUS addresses on their website .... don't bother ....they are all returned 'undeliverable'.

Their website/emails etc are set up via a scamming site in California.

GOOD NEWS !!! Based on emails/letters sent & returned/website 'scam' frontage etc I put a case together after the 1st 12 months expired and I had no 'work' from NUS .... and sent it to my Credit Card Companies on which I had paid the £2000 they asked for ...... I hjave had my monies re-credited to my cards !!!! It's cost me phoyocopying etc costs, time, effort, tel calls but I'VE GOT MY MONEY BACK AT LAST !


Your only hope is to go via the Credit Card Companies (if you paid via that method) and DON'T GIVE UP / PERSIST WITH THEM.

Hope this advice helps others and GOOD LUCK.


Your idea via Trading Standards as a joint group MAY be worthwhile but be prepared to put the effort in ...... GOOD LUCK

OFT ? ..... useless .... as police,ASA etc ..... best way may be to Trading Standards

Companies House is only for registration. If they don't submit accounts they will be struck off. Police won't get involved as it appears to be a civil mater (breach of contract) not a criminal matter. Start with Trading Standards. They will refer to ASA and if they suspect fraud - the police will get involved.

One of the best ways of getting noticed by Trading Standards is if they get a lot of letters on the same subject in a short period of time. How many on this forum have been contacted by them? How many have given them money? If we all write to them at the same time it may work.

I agree about the Trading Standards bit ..... I've had no success with ASA already .... they MAY investigate but won't actually advise you of any outcome.

report them to trading standards and refer them to this Forum ..... in my 'case' to my credit card companies I 'screeen dumped' a lot of peoples comments ands posted them ..... maybe do likewise to Trading Standards. GOOD LUCK. I'll keep watching this Forum.

Dear Sir.

I have been asked to speak to Companies in the area with a view to implementing someone suitable to look after a number of tenanted properties on behalf of our clients. These are located in and around Nottingham area. This is in relevance to the ongoing gas works and subsequent maintenance requirements over the next 24 months.

For the last 2 or 3 weeks I have been in contact with a number of engineers and we are slowly compiling our shortlist of interested parties. If the below Contract sounds like something that could benefit your company and/or you would like some further information, then please do not hesitate to get back in touch.

Thanks

Chris Wallace

HIS REPLY:


Thank You for your reply xxxxx

The Good Old UK Plumbers forum !!!

The person who runs the site is called Daniel Freakley and also owns a building company that we turned down over 2 years ago to cover full maintenance contract within his area, The reason was very simple that Certain Clients had used his company before and was best than please with the work he undertook.

If you read the forums no one on there have done any work or contracts and are just putting their view forward just like you, But we always supply references of companies that have been through the process and are ACTUALLY doing the contracts so people can get an unbiased view on this.

Again the forum and people who post on it are the same 3-4 companies and surprise surprise its the sites administrators who are employed to run his site and there are also companies on there that have joined up and are getting work that have posted.

Again xxxxx as a company we understand the forum and have a legal team that deals with this on our behalf again it’s a shame you are one of their very small minority who would rather read gas engineers who have all day to sit in front of a computer and slate everything about everything, again my question is why are they not out working maybe have no work due to them being the COWBOYS of the GAS INDUSTRY.

We have plenty of Companies that cover the contracts and all have done their research some have even laughed at the forum and found it very entertaining, But again our engineers that cover this are far too busy themselves doing work !!!!

We as a company are very happy with what we provide and you don’t get to cover work for Banking Groups if we are SCAMMERS !!!

Again thanks for the reply and don’t always believe what you read

Regards

Chris Wallace

Well looks like `Chris Wallace` last line say's it all, ` Dont always believe what you read, as for working for the banks, the biggest SCAMMERS , he's in good company, Let him put his money where is mouth is, and provide the proof of all these companey's that they claim to be working for !! As none of our local Banks & Estate Agents have heard of them. So Chris Wallace PUT UP OR SHUT UP !! Next thing will be as they are based in Scotland he will be claiming to be related to Willam Wallace.

Just ask any of these people to meet FACE-TO-FACE to discuss contracts and PROVIDE REFERENCES of Engineers employed which you can contact INDEPENDENTLY (don't trust tel nos etc provided for you) AND I BET NOW IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ..... KEEP YOUR MONEY IN YOUR POCKET .

Hmm interesting.

Judging by the bad English, it would appear that English isn't this guy's first language, and Chris Wallace is unlikely to be his real name. If I were guessing, I would probably have a stab at Russian or Nigerian.
