Re: [fundogshows] Warning to show organisers

Thanks for this,
 
I was contacted by someone who I thought at first was from the local paper (I was expecting them to contact me) as he was asking questions like is it your first one, when he found out it wasn't asking how big it was, how many people etc etc.
 
I asked who he was but he rang off.  I looked up the number and Doggy Snack Shack came up.  I haven't heard from him since but he might just turn up.

I have heard about this man too.  He's conned a lot of people out of a lot of money.
 
I'm really surprised he's still allowed to trade.

Subject: [fundogshows] Warning to show organisers
 
 

This is a warning to thise organising and attending fun and companion dog shows. There is a dog stand Doggy Snack Shack who has now moved to this arena who is double charging people who use Credit Cards. Happened to me in 2008 at two champ shows . After doing this too many times at Champ shows he has been forced to seek alternative venues to continue his games.
I understand he was at a companion show today in West Malling, packed up early and left without paying for his pitch!! At another one he tried to Bully his way on to the showsite.
Please be very careful who you allow to have a pitch at your shows.

To be honest the police should be informed as this is fraud, and theft as he left without paying, by what has been said he shouldnt be too hard to track down....

The only protection from him is not to buy anything from him and not to allow him to attend your shows. If he says to the CC company he is willing to refund...
