    GARCINIUM INTERNET SCAM

There is an online Scam going around concerning the company who use the above logo and reference “Miracle Fat Burner …in a Bottle”

The Company is presently still to be found on Facebook and Twitter and I expect other sites as well.

They will offer you a “Risk Free Trial” Bottle of Garcinium for the cost of postage to get your account details. They will then take the postage cost from your account but later remove a greater amount using the same account details.

If you have ordered a trial Bottle and the postage has shown in your account instruct your Bank NOT to make any further payments to Garcinium, and report the matter.

The Company operates as Garcinium, POSTBUS 131 404DC KESTEREN, NETHERLANDS. Their email address is info@bodyhealthyzone.com

I will update this Blog if more information becomes available from research or from the public.

 

CORNWALL HOMECHOICE ‘WILLFUL DECEPTION AWARD’ (8)

CORNWALL HOMECHOICE WILLFUL DECEPTION AWARD (8)

Blog entered 25 August 2014

 CORNWALL HOMECHOICE ‘WILLFUL DECEPTION AWARD’ (8)

A weekly feature which will consider the picture Cornwall Homechoice applicants come across when trying to view the property they are considering bidding on.

Since posting the first (2) awards I have now added a 3rd award in response to a growing contempt towards bidders.
According to Cornwall Council it is the Landlord who is responsible for adding the picture to the advertisement.

Because the advertisement is on Cornwall Council’s website the ‘Willful Deception Award’ is therefore awarded to both the Council, for abdicating it’s responsibility to the public, and it’s worst 3 housing partners for that week.

In most cases the picture will be willfuly misleading because the Council/partners would have been aware of the problem previously.

Week (8) : 23/08/2014 to 27/08/2014.

1st place ‘Willful Deception Award’ goes to CORNWALL COUNCIL & DEVON & CORNWALL HOUSING (DCH), for using the “No Photo Available” image for 4 properties. CC & DCH came 2nd last week.

DCH is another one of those rich housing charities which consistently cannot be bothered.

2nd place ‘Willful Deception Award’ goes to CORNWALL COUNCIL & COASTLINE HOUSING for using the “Energy Performance Certificate” images for 3 properties. (Different values).

3rd place ‘Willful Deception Award’. There is no 3rd place this week. An improvement.

A special mention for the image used by COASTLINE HOUSING, above, which lacks flair for showing too much flare.

The serious side to this on-going problem is that when I have gathered enough evidence I will lodge a formal written complaint with Devon & Cornwall Constabulary.

But won’t D&CC just protect Cornwall Council and the Landlords I hear you say ? absolutely, but what D&CC won’t do is claim it never received it.

(Update 25/07/14 : A Manager representing Cornwall Council has since confirmed in writing that Cornwall Council will not accept any responsibility for misleading or “willfuly misleading” photographs or information which appear on the Council’s website with regard to Cornwall Homechoice).

Footnote : Although I appreciate Landlords may not want the public to know a property belonging to them is empty, and therefore do not want the property to be identified, this is the system the Council introduced and which the Landlords agreed to follow. While it remains in use the Council and the Landlords should adhere to it.

I am also aware of some properties which the Council and the Landlord did not want identified because the properties were ‘ringfenced’, and which involved the Council and the Landlord in all sorts of unlawful practises.

CORNWALL HOMECHOICE AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT OMBUDSMAN.

CORNWALL HOMECHOICE WELFARE PRIORITY ASSESSMENTS.

                     “FIRST REVIEW”

Question : When is a Cornwall Homechoice “First Review” Welfare Priority Assessment not a “First Review” ?

Answer : When the Local Government Ombudsman decides to engage in willful blindness to protect Cornwall Council before the public interest.

A “First Review” is Cornwall Council Policy 23.7 and the Council broke this Policy on 16 October 2012, which amounts to maladministration.

Thanks to the LGO we may never know how many other members of the public have also been willfuly abused and cheated by Cornwall Council.

The Law gives the LGO absolute discretion to investigate maladministration but more often the LGO will protect incompetent and corrupt Councils.

Quotation : the Local Government Ombudsman “Operate the most perverse and publicly criticised system of administrative justice in the world”, unquote.

             AN ADDED INSULT TO INJURY

 

When a Local Government Ombudsman breaks the law by NOT investigating maladministratration by local Government, the LGO knows central Government will protect the LGO. This because most cases of maladministration are the result of central Government Policies.

If you now apply the same logic to the HO, PHSO, IPCC and others, you will begin to understand that we, the public, are not actually being protected at all.

SANCTUARY HOUSING, THE THINGS THEY SAY.

SANCTUARY HOUSING, THE THINGS THEY SAY.

Blog entered 4 August 2014.

Pictured is Sanctuary CEO David Bennett who would have known about the following :

    SANCTUARY HOUSING : THE THINGS THEY SAY.

The following is a copy of an email from Sanctuary Regional Director Richard Keeley to Simon Clark, now Managing Director – Sanctuary Housing Services, and Sarah Clarke-Kuehn, then Director, regarding my email Re: Re : Service Charge and related issues to Sanctuary’s Simon Clark, Rosemary Crawley and CEO David Bennett.

Re : Service Charge & Related Issues is an email with updates and reports which I have sent Simon Clark and Rosemary Crawley almost every week for the past 2 years. I have been assured CEO David Bennett receives a copy and I send his office a hard copy via Recorded Post now and then marked ‘Private & Confidential’.

Keeley’s email to Clark and Clarke-Kuehn was dated 30 July 2012, and was sent at 15:14 hours.

I quote :

“I’m not sure what Oonah’s statement to the Police was as I haven’t seen it. I’m not sure how he would have been able to see the statement either.

But my memory of this is that mediation took place at the Tengo cafe in St Austell at his request.

It is categorically untrue that I would have said this – to my knowledge he’s never been a physical threat. We agreed to hold mediation in the cafe because that was the only place he would agree to meet.

We originally wanted to meet him at the Council, but I think he said something along the lines of “I’ll meet with you only in Tengo cafe, and nowhere else” . We agreed, albeit reluctantly. He’s then constantly levelled the accusation at us that we held he meeting in an inappropriate place.

Regards

R. “, unquote.

 

“R” is for Richard as in Richard Keeley. Shortly before I was unlawfully arrested by Devon & Cornwall Police in 2012 and which was orchestrated by Cornwall Council to protect itself and Sanctuary Housing, Richard Keeley’s title went from “Regional Director” to “Head of Housing Operations (South West)” to protect all concerned. A turd by another name. The conclusion of the false arrest led to 4 Officers being reprimanded by the IPCC and which involved a white wash and a cover-up by both Devon & Cornwall Police and the IPCC.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oonah Lacey’s written complaint to the Police concerned a “Director of Sanctuary” who instructed TPAS Mediator Oonah Lacey that I “must not be seen alone and was seen as dangerous and any meeting must be in a place of public”, unquote.

Simon Clark must have known the Police were denying me a copy of Lacey’s written complaint for Keeley to state that he didn’t know “either”. The truth is I didn’t see the statement but parts of it were read out to me and my solicitor by one of the two officers present at the “oppressive” Recorded Interview. A request was made for a copy of the tapes and a transcript was made.

The tapes also enabled me to prove Oonah Lacey willfuly lied to the Police a number of times in her written complaint but neither the I/O or the IPCC investigated this evidence.

The meeting did take place at the Tengo cafe in St Austell and I did choose the venue after Oonah Lacey asked me to find somewhere we could talk. I never requested we meet anywhere and there was never any suggestion the meeting would be anything other than a one to one informal chat about my problems with my landlord. Lacey’s written advice prior to the meeting was that she would ” meet with you and then meet with Sanctuary”, unquote, and later bring us together to resolve the issues.

In referring to the meeting as “Mediation”, as did Lacey and Parsons in the Report of the “Mediation Meeting”, Keeley is acknowledging the Charity did finance an unlawful process of Mediation in a cafe without the propietors consent or my consent to enter into binding “Mediation”.

The suggestion by Keeley that they, Sanctuary Housing and TPAS, wanted to meet me at the Council is a fabricated lie. “I’ll meet with you only in Tengo cafe, and nowhere else” , unquote, is also a fabricated lie with quotation marks.

Even Sanctuary Housing’s Christa Ripley, Head of Housing Operations – Midlands, who investigated the issues, stated in her letter of 21 March 2013 that she could find no evidence that any offer to meet at the Council had ever been put to me.

With regard to me levelling accusations at Sanctuary Housing that the cafe was an “inappropriate place”, the cafe was an inappropriate place to conduct “Mediation”. Moreso when one considers it involved the largest social housing provider in the country, and an Organisation which frequently advises Government.

With regard to Judge Rosemary Crawley I can only say that the Law should have taken precedence over Boardroom Protocol.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The following is part of an email conversation between Area Manager Janet Swales and her boss Regional Director Richard Keeley on 16 May 2011, in reply to his earlier request that day that she seek advice from the local Mental Health team regarding myself. Keeley’s email was also copied to Sanctuary’s Jane Pike and Ed Blackmore at 11:51 hours.

“Hi Richard, I’ve checked with the mental health team and he is not known to them. I’m not sure that we can go any further on the mental health angle”, unquote.

Keeley and Swales needed an “angle” to detract from the fact they had broken the law and were both untrustworthy.

So what has this to do with the charity Sanctuary Housing funding an unlawful Mediation process ?

Oonah Lacey also stated in her written complaint to the Police that I was “mentally disturbed” and had “mental health issues”.
