My girlfriend and I have reported everything to the police. This guy’s been doing the rounds because the constable we spoke to told us that there had been quite a few incidents like this involving the person fitting the same description. All I can do now is wait until I get a call if the police need more info. The driver’s license…[Read more]

I’ve spoken to St. George investigations.. the cheque was fraudulent. $2,000 down the drain.. now my mortgage will be in arrears. I’m sick in the gut..

I can barely talk/type right now.. I’m so upset.. I can’t believe some people.

Well.. I hope this info helps someone out there:

Be VERY careful of St. George bank cheques..…[Read more]

Thanks again.

Anyways, it’s great to hear that your current investment is doing well [king]

Cheers

Hi Jo, I guess the best lessons are learned the hard way [blush2] You know there’s always a saying for every situation? lol Here’s one:

Experience is the worst teacher; it gives you the test before presenting the lesson.

I am very blessed to have my girlfriend.. even though she’s still very upset at the moment it’s something that’ll…[Read more]

Ah well :) All this tax stuff is so much work..
