·Hmmmm...A "suggestion" posted by a concerned TRF forumer
As much as I sympathize with the victims, really? Personally, I would never expect anybody coming to my rescue because I lost a bunch of cash buying a Rolex or any other kind of luxury item. Them the brakes IMO.
"Hi everyone,
...... I have been following the thread since page 4 and cannot stress my sympathy enough to the victims of Chris Essery/HH.
......However, I would like to suggest an idea and see if it can gather some traction since more than 352,000 views (and counting) have already been made on these 51 pages alone: can a trusted member of this community help raise a fundraiser online to try to financially support the victims of this scam as it is very unlikely that they will see any money coming back from Mr Essery himself?
The key here would be trust in both the person raising the fundraiser and the persons susceptible to receive the money back to ensure that the right amount goes back to the right people.
What do you people think of this idea? I know that some might think that the money lost by the victims should be considered disposable income due to the nature of the transaction (buying a Rolex). However, I do not believe that this should be considered to be the case as some people might save for years before they can even think of buying this kind of watches.
I myself would participate to this fundraising if assurance can be given that the money would go to the victims, and seeing how this community is having each other's back, hopefully it wouldn't take long before a nice sum can be gathered to help the victims of this scam..."
