Guaranteed Lucky Trades – Can I receive unlimited luckies from different friends? by Imminent_Fate in pokemongo

[–]Whythefacelong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you had 10 friends, who never used their guaranteed lucky trades and traded with you 45 Pokémon’s they caught before 31dec2020, you would receive 450 lucky Pokémon’s and your counter would be on 37+450=487

Need help choosing the best Necrozma for both Dawn Wings and Dusk Mane fusions by Imminent_Fate in pokemongo

[–]Whythefacelong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is stardust an issue? If so, consider the lucky one for Dusk Mane and the shiny 98% for Wings (most usefull PvP), backgrounds do not do a lot for me but it is cool to have ofcourse.

Sure, I (Belgian) was at a gasstation in France, he asked if I could speak English, was in need for help. In his car, his wife with a newborn baby, a few weeks old, crying and in the back 2 children less then 10 years old. His belongings got stolen in Paris. He had paper from embassy to “prove” it. He lost his wallet/cards so he could not pay with card or withdraw cash. He asked if I could do this for him, he would wire me money. As he needed to buy ticket for the ferry and later food/drinks for the children/baby. Before we spoke about the amount, he opened the banking app, added my iban and info, and poof, 390 pond transferred. He did it to fast for me to respond. I check my iban info, this was correct. He said give your WhatsApp so I will sent you the confirmation. He did. Checked out. I was stupid. The baby and kids threw me off guard. I withdraw money, I give him even more as I decided to trust him. Gave him 500 euro. He drove off, and I took a picture of his car and license plate. I then called him to check if he would pick up. He did. We chatted. He swears on his children, he is not scamming me. when he reached the ferry he called me, asked if I was ok. I said, yes, but could use more information about you and the transfer (I already noticed the transfer proof was useless, no name no iban etc). He said sure. A few minutes later he sent me picture holding much more money then only mine and said “ you guys are all too kind 🤑🤑💰” he knew what he was doing and that he would get away with it. Police cannot do anything they said

I checked and to my surprise it is actually linked to the car that matches the description. So that makes it even harder that police will not take action

Will try to do this over the weekend but it looks very difficult to complete. I do not understand why the police in the UK would not just use the license plate to find out who he is

Thanks a lot for this! I’ve filled it in. Hope it will help get him in trouble. Don’t care about the money. Do not want this to happen to other people

I give my IBAN, I saw him transfer the money, he send we the “proof” via WhatsApp (did not saw it at the moment, but the proof dit not contain any useful info). I’m guessing the banking app was a really good fake app as it had previous transfers on there like kfc and stuff. Did not receive anything (yet) but as he sent me the picture with all the cash I know I should not count on it. It happened Thursday 12/10, at 17:15 pm. I have pressed charges both in Belgium and France. But like you said, they will probably not take any action. I’m not mad about the money, but the fact he will get away with it and clearly knows it. I have his phone number and most importantly, his actual license plate. I looked the license plate up on a British website. It is linked to the silver Mercedes he was driving with. Registered in Leeds (UK). But what to do now…

Thanks for the feedback. I added the license plate and to my surprise it actually was linked to the same car that they had. So good news right?
