The previous email in English.
Hi Marjolein,
Let me introduce ourselves we are Achiniotis Tassos and Aelterman Chantal from Belgium, I received a link from Grant Armstrong from a friend in Side, in which I came across your name and that of Watson Marian. I have already contacted Marian, she gave me your email address. Grant who, like us and many others, has been scammed by those scammers, I have not yet been able to reach, the link in which he asks to forward information is still blocked by Facebook.
Why am I contacting you, you visited Rens Smulders at the time, now Rens is very good friends and business partners (scam all people) with Roy, and Fiona. They now live in Leliestraat 5 in Maarheeze, if you look this up you will see that there are 2 companies at this address: De Flying Dutchman which is van Rens and Rofio (Roy and Fiona) retail trade via mail order and internet. They have been living there since December I think, they first went into hiding with Roy's brother when they fled Turkey, this is because of us and others who have lodged a complaint in Side with the gendarma, and Roy has been in custody for a while.
Nico, Roy's father, is staying in the Blauwe Meer holiday park in Lommel. We have deposited our money into his account from the booking we made through Roy's site Hotel.org, so just as complicit as the rest.
We and 3 other Belgians have filed a complaint in Belgium, the public prosecutor of the Public Prosecutor of Belgium has transferred the file to LIRC Driebergen (Netherlands attn OM/ZEM)
of all the Belgians and Dutch that we already know there is a scam of a 54000 euros, unfortunately not everyone has filed a complaint.
Below is a short story that we have submitted to the police,
As agreed, our complaint against Roy Van Lieshout, who defrauded us for the sum of 3471 euros, 2 trips to Turkey, see messenger
Information Roy Van Lieshout :
from Maarheeze Netherlands, fled to Turkey – Gran Mediterra Sitesi, 508 Sokak-Side Mah Antalya Turkey – residence permit number 99130024772
Our story :
Via our colleague at work, Didier Vincent – Moreels Christine – Karel Van De Woestijnelaan 14 – 9830 Sint – Martens –Latem, also scammed for the sum of 4500 euros.
Didier told us that through his wife Christine, her cousin Steven Moreels living in Side , he had booked a trip to Dubai at a competitive price, through a good friend of Steven , Roy, who has (had) a company hotelbooking.org.
Didier assured us that all documents were in order, so we believed this and contacted Roy via messenger, see attachment.
We have booked 2 trips with him for the total sum of 3471 euros, we quickly noticed that something was not right, we had to keep asking for proof of the bookings.
The first thing we received was an online confirmation by e-mail via Hotels.com, the vouchers were to follow this year.
Then we asked about the plane tickets on 12/11/18 , we wanted to receive them by post and mail , then it started , they were sent , we were kept informed that we did not have them , we received all kinds of excuses and excuses ....
Then days started when something was wrong with us, we called Sentido Zeynep where we had booked through Roy, and where we have been traveling for years, and they confirmed that nothing had been booked in our name.
Informed our colleague who assured us that everything was in order with him, meanwhile called Roy and contacted via messenger where the tickets are.
Our colleague wanted to book his seats through the airline, and thus discovered that there was no booking to Dubai in their name, so on December 11 we asked for our money again via messenger.
Roy has kept us on the line until today that the money has been deposited, but is delayed due to the holidays, then with the excuse that something had done wrong with the transfer, the deposit proof is also false, see messenger.
We did our own research, called the hotel Perissia in Side where he works, contacted a person who lives in Side, and who has also worked in the Perissia via facebook.
We have learned the following:
Roy is known in Side for scams and fraud, was kicked out of a hotel when he was fired, because he also defrauded people there.
He and his father Nico Van Lieshout fled from the Netherlands to Turkey, as they are currently also charged with fraud and tax fraud in the Netherlands.
Why am I contacting you now , we want that gang of crooks behind bars , we can wait a long time for the court and the police , and in the meantime they just keep going . Can you help us make a television program public? We will not see our money again , you can not pluck a bald chicken , but we can make sure that it stops .
We still have all our evidence from the bank and the emails and messenger traffic, and we have another person who wants to cooperate.
We hope to hear from you
Regards
Tassos and Chantal |
