my parents recently befreinded a "grey nomand" he travelled to tasmania and when there rang them appering to be "desperate" his bus  had  been broken into and his id and money stolen.
he asked them to lend him enough money to get home and promised to pay it back as soon as he get here and had his id sorted out.
my parents lent this man over 1,000 to get him home and havent heard from him since!!!!!!!!!
after contacting police they have found out the man is definatly back in the country and no police record was ever filed of a robbery!
please if you come across a man and woman driving a blue leyland 52ft bus rego ybn-n79 by the name of cliff or clifford and kathlene
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE'S LEND HIM MONEY HE IS A THEIF!!!!!!
if anyone knows of his where abouts please contact me!
my parents are good people who nearly broke themselves to help this "freind" out and i would hate to see him do this to anyone else!

It might be prudent to post your concern on the "Exploroz" site, it would have much more coverage there.

thanks a lot i will do!

I am most interested in what course of action the police suggested.... seeing as you have his rego number??

the man left a vechile at mum and dad's so the police said to serve notice in a letter and if he still doesnt contact them that they are legally ok to sell the car as long as they only ask for what he owes them. they also checked out the boat records from tassie whic is how we know he is back in australia and have listed him as a missing person

hmm. and I always thought Tassie was part of Australia. you learn something new every day cheers Davo
