I advise all in the community to view this site incase they are affected.
I am not slandering this gentleman on these forums or posting derogatory comments, I am only trying to do a service to the community and advise any people who require our help that this is where they should go.
This site is simply a platform for all of his victims to get the justice they deserve.

Thanks in advance.

Fingers crossed eh, I posted this message for a friend who was concerned that it may breach the terms of the user agreement, so I read them, read them again, and again and am confident that it doesn't.

The way I see it is simply that I can understand that the forum admin don't want a lawsuit which is fair enough, but as responsible members of the community it would be appreciated if they would allow this post to remain so that affected community members have somewhere to go to recoup lost funds and recieve the justice they deserve.

Thanks for your support al. If you know any affected parties, if you could point them in the direction of that site i would be eternally grateful.

I cant beleive the "my story" part of the site what were you thinking.

You take your car to him and pay in advance.
He demands more money and you give it over.
No progress is made on the car yet you hand over more money and help him move.
He then ask's for 8k and hand it over.
You then get a credit card and put GEORGE on it.
You give him a blank cheque which he cash's.
THEN you buy another car off him.. I mean WTF!!!
Then you give him MORE money.

And to top it all off you go and do all his work for him OMFG.

Dont get me wrong i fell really sorry for whats happend and how long george has got away with it for but feck me.. your either really really good natured or just plain stupid, go figure.

Gutted.. hope george really does get his due's.

Mate, its not me, its a close friend.

And believe me, he's had his bollocking off everybody for being a pushover.

I suppose you really need to be seduced by George's lies to completely understand how stupid some people can be.

asht It might be worth you signing up on www.zscentral.com and posting this in every place on the site (as Ross WILL delete it but if you spam it all over the forum someone might see it).

I am just about to PM it to Ross as well along with asking him to remove me from the forum (the cowboy is an active member on there) as the members on there seem oblivious to his past or indeed what he is like.

I fail to understand how f*&^ing stupid some people can be.
If it was my car people would be pushing up daisies by now.
How very strange that someone can get away with this, just shows he has never dealt with the right or wrong folks before.

Is he still active on zscentral?, I thought he was banned from there.

Hopefully, the law of what goes around comes around is about to catch up with him :twisted: .

I can't believe what i've just read.. If it were me i'd have taken a few good men around with me and foribly extracted the money from him which to be honest I wouldn't have given him in the first place...

This George bloke needs to be taught a lesson that the state cannot teach him in my opinion.

His bebo profile is something else isn't it.

I can't understand why the guy didn't just turn up mob handed with a recovery wagon and take the car back, the cowboy would have been dealt with as required, end of.

To be honest guys, I understand that from where your stood the chap looks like a mug, but you have to remember 3 things;

1. He was only a very young kid at the time.
2. He was being conned by someone very good at conning!
3. In fear of the safety of his vehicle he was throwing good money after bad.

True, he's a bloody idiot, but he is the FIRST person to admit it, and now has finally come forward and asked for help, and his friends will ensure he gets it.

Yes he did. But the vehicle was a main dealer model which at the point had been stripped down and was absolutely nothing, George had sold most of the parts off it.
The simple fact is, he panicked.

I wouldn't have done the same thing at all, but he did.

Is he still missing by the way?
I never knew he had a Pontiac made like a KITT replica, but thought I'd mention on the vague offchance that he may be living in Ireland, I saw a Pontiac the same as that with the KITT replica stuff a couple of months ago with Wexford plates on it.

He has sold the pontiac some time ago and we know exactly where he is at this present moment in time.

Should anyone wish to discuss the chap its probably better to take the one minute to register on the forums over at www.georgemackmurdie.co.uk to limit the liability of the site admin here.
The point in this post originally was to draw any negative attention over there so it could be filtered and dealt with and this fella finally have to pay for the suffering he has caused.

Ta guys.

Valid point, but, of course, it's easy for the macho willy-wavers to sit back and give us all the benefit of their advice and opinions bearing always in mind that they haven't necessarily even met the subject, much less had any dealings with him. :P
asht wrote:but he is the FIRST person to admit it,
Can't let you have that one :P

Both syzsounds and myself allowed our experiences with Voldemort to be publicised in an attempt to discourage other people.





I get lied to by professionals as some of you know and I can gauge the lies from this subject to be fair to middling but it's not the individual lies, it's the way one is eventually worn down by the continuous stream of utter nonsense.

For example, I was, on one occasion, standing in the doorway of the unit in Luton staring at this individual whilst talking to him on my mobile and he swore blind that he was in London.

There's no defence against that sort of pigheadedness.

Ultimately, my net loss at the hands of this individual were minor, although the gross loss, if you will, from wasted time and worry was extremely high.

However, I can understand and, to a point, sympathise with the guy whose story is told on the web-site mentioned above.

There are not many on RT who know me who would use terms such as 'stupid' etc. as mentioned above to describe me and it is from that standpoint that I say, don't judge the victims of Voldemort unless you have experience to guide you.

This individual preys on those who know little about cars and his first actions are always to remove large amounts of each car to ensure that it is undriveable and also to make the proposition of recovering it financially unviable.

Further, I have more resources than most, both legitimate and...not so legitimate, to achieve my aims and I wasn't able to break through official apathy to do what clearly should be done.

It is my fervent wish that he returns to the cosy prison cell from whence he came and I wish you the best of luck in getting him there.

So, guys, ease off the victims a bit please. ;)

Paul i am not a willy waver , simple point is someone takes the P that much out of someone they would get what was coming to them , i cant even comprehend the thought that someone would allow themselves to get walked over so much.

I wont go in to other personal stories , but from the story this guy told he clearly is a wally , and has admitted it , i do feel sorry for him but come on.

On another note paul , where is your publicised version ? i wouldnt mind reading more on this pratt.

Yeah i have to agree with Paul here the victim has done nothing wrong other than being a bit gullible. I mean we all get sucked in by this guy.

I came within an nats whisker of being "just another statistic" with him and if it had not have been for common sense kicking in and actually asking people in the know then i would have gone for his "easy 3 1/2k turbo add on, first ever vvc turbo in the country" and god only knows what would have happened to a then pristine 18 month old ZR160. I mean it even got as far as i was about to pay a deposit and leave the car with him.

In my honest opinion this guy has got away with to much for to long and he seems very slippery when it comes to the law actually catching up with him. It is about time he got his comeuppance really.

Paul - thanks for your support. Its much appreciated.

This story is related to andy pethick, with the silver/trophy blue 220 coupe, i believe you know each other.

I would also ask that if you have a story that you share it with us, it may be that even if it doesn't result in a criminal conviction, it could still be used.

No point

I no longer have the documentation to prove it.

In addition, some of my methods were a little unorthodox.
