SHAUN HIGLEY

I think good advice is, just because you chat to others on a forum does not mean you must trust them implicitly, they are in fact strangers and even if you do meet physically treat them like any other person you meet for the first time. Ask for references.
You don't have to be a snob about it but remember that wolves allways dress in sheeps clothing.

You know the story, "trust me, I read the Bible every night" etc.

I know it is none of my business but that’s like going after a fly with a sledgehammer? Getting Carte Blanche involved is a good thing but your motive is not to clear to me at this point in time? I don’t know perhaps it will be a warning for others and yes we will probably see on TV what the outcome is and what the damages was. Perhaps then I will have a clear picture.

I'll be willing to bet that this 'Shaun Higley', or whatever his real name is, has been doing this kind of stuff for a long, long time.

If a thorough investigation is done, it could be that this person has way more than 7 victims. He has an established method & constantly adapts his game to stay ahead of the law. He is not stupid & knows how to dupe his victims. They believe him at every step of the game.

If Carte Blanche investigate this case properly, this confidence artist could turn out to be a very interesting case study.

Well, winning someone’s confidence then run off with their money. Still this time around with the police and a few people looking for him they will find him soon enough. But when they do... then I hope they have enough cases to put him a way for a good long time.

How much has this guy ripped people off by? I thought it was a couple of hundred rand here and there, and although not right...eish, I wouldn't lose any sleep over it, chalk it up to a lesson learn't. Just my 2c's though...and I believe in karma...

That is exactly the reason I'm doubting the sincerity of the newest developments. Mountains out of molehills, Carte Blanche, all for a small-time con artist?

I sits....
I looks...
I waits...

Hello there

As far as I know he is somewhere in Cape Town. He has caused a lot of problems and is not a very reliable person at all. He is in a hostel somewhere and is getting medical attention for "so called" bi-polar. It has also been brought to my attention that he has "cancer" as well. (I have known him for quite a number of years, so learn't the hard way to take what he says with not a pinch of salt but a whole bucket of salt!)

[lizzyest]

His name is Shaun Higley. No doubt about that. And he has more than 7 victims of his scams and that includes family members.

this shaun higley is not physically sick, but mentally sick. he has been suffering from cancer for soooooo many years, I am surprised he is still around. Around he is, but not sure where, but somewhere in the Cape Town area. He is a con-artist and has no conscience of who he does in, family included. His mother is in a home and gets in a state when you mention his name. try looking for him on a "dating" site as he likes to find "victims" there as well.

[lizzyest]

he does not have children. (fortunately)

For someone that has ripped off a lot people he doesn’t seem to be well funded. That said I am absolutely shocked to see this thread running again Lizzyest.
I take it you are also looking for him?
