Scammer alert: jaydeencox
Hello HUBB
I have tried to buy a fuel tank and got contacted by
jaydeencox
Who only tried to talk me into sending him money via several unsafe apps.
I found a multitude of websites explaining the same happening.
Don't reply to his messages, it's a waste of time.

He sent me a US driver's license. Potentially fake.
Anyone here able to check him out and report to the police?
PM me

I can't find the person on the database, it could be that Grant has already removed him.
But just in case can you please post a copy of what was written.

Apparently still active here.
He'd sent me a PM saying he had a set of the tanks I'm looking for, but can only provide two tiny old photos that look oddly familiar from an ad I've seen a year or two ago.
And somehow isn't able to provide new photos in the age of smartphones.

I can provide the email adress and other suspected alias' to the mods, if that is of any use.

I've deleted his most recent post and banned his username--again, I assume. It didn't go the way it usually does, so maybe this is just a minor wrinkle in the space/time continuum...or something.
TobyG, I'd say send the email address to Grant in case it's useful. If you somehow have an IP address as well, that would likely be even better.
Thanks!

Sorry for the issue folks, he registered via Tapatalk, which is problematic for us. LOTS of people use it so we can't just dump it. However his account is definitely now nuked - BUT he can come back via Tapatalk again, no way to stop him. grrrr.
Please notify me / report any problematic posts via the
thanks!

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
