Tricky Utrici Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 (edited) Has anyone heard of or know Alfred Nimmo, from Sheffield area, he's offering me an exchange deal on some rare plants that looks too good to be true. I've no reason to believe he's not genuine but looking for some feedback. You know what they say about offers that look too good to be true.

ada Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 (edited) Les, i live in sheffield and i don't know him. There is someone who lives over the other side of town who grows cp's but i don't know him either. What's he offering? remember JJ? Or ask him his address and i'll go and visit him,if he's nothing to hide,he should welcome a fellow cp grower. did he run eco-verdi years ago? ada Edited May 15, 2014 by ada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel H-C Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Yes, he ran Eco Verdi in the early 90's. Haven't heard that name for years! Nigel HC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danl82 Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 You can't believe the gall of some people. It's probably little consolation but thank you for flagging up this name, at least others will be able to see this. Wasn't there someone else who tried scamming plants out of people for nothing a while ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carambola Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 That is truly terrible, I hope there is a way to retrieve your money. I'll make sure to point anyone looking for info on him to your posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ahrens Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 I seem to remember that people had trouble with Eco Verdi years ago. People were not pleased with him then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocky71 Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 There's a 3 year gap in this thread but this Alfred Nimmo is still up to no good?. Its outrageous , shame he hasn't t been paid a visit...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoLongFairWell Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Right. It's like this. I've locked the topic. Trading in ants has nothing to do with carnivorous plants so shouldn't have been posted in this community in the first place. Whether legal or not. Anything non-cp related in this thread has been removed by me. I don't for one minute believe that a lawyer or barrister would advise to air your dirty laundry publicly! If either of you have a genuine case, take it to the police. CPUK is hardly the fraud squad. No more posting on CPUK about this subject. It's irrelevant here.

SoLongFairWell Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 I have spent quite a bit of time reviewing every post in this topic and have restored the ones up to just before Alfred Nimmo's address was published. Too many of the other posts break forum rules. @Vasi Bagazzoli if you feel you were scammed then try contacting the police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
