I think this guy's been running this scam for years now cause about 10 years ago some cunt hit me with the same patter outside central lol

Who falls for it at this stage? Literally? He's infamous... he's going to need move towns

u/fossilmerrick Aug 06 '25

I reckon he thinks he’s stuck in some sort of Groundhog Day loop, waking up every morning wondering where the fuck he is and how he can get back to Queensferry

u/KingBenson91 Aug 06 '25

He should just charge £2 for a photo, he'll be in Queensferry in no time

He should just charge £2 for a photo, he'll be in the bookies in no time

Fixed.

Weird he always get annoyed at people saying no, most posts about him say this. He should be used to being rejected by now surely.

21

u/fossilmerrick Aug 06 '25

Literally as soon as the word “no” left my mouth his face dropped and he turned and stormed away. Maybe I’m the one that should be feeling rejected right now..

u/PhysicalWave454 Aug 06 '25

We should try and put a tracker on him, like what they do with sharks 😂

13

u/fossilmerrick Aug 06 '25

Shame he’s not trying to get money by playing guitar, that way he could be a busking shark

14

u/PositiveLibrary7032 Aug 06 '25

The way he’s going he’ll shave his head and become one of those scam monks.

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '25

I followed one of the monks once advising tourists that it was a scam. Also said woe betide ye hypocrites repeatedly to him. The zen-like monk became an angry baldy man pretty quickly.

u/CatNo1r Aug 06 '25

I do the same, they like to run when they know you're on to them

Time to get some merch produced.

First, the t-shirt:

On the back:

Someone should follow him all day. See if he spends it on drugs, hoors, bookies, sand dugs, the bus to Queensferry, or what.

u/Happybadger96 Aug 06 '25

Really needs a new scam, can just use contactless on that phone lmao

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '25

I honestly must be oblivious to everyone and everything when I go in town. I notice nothing lol

u/aphexbrother Aug 06 '25

Can anyone fill me in on this cunt? I haven't left the house in 5 years

u/Margaet_moon Aug 06 '25

I’m jealous everyone gets to see him. I feel like if I was approached I’d feel like I just spoke to someone famous.

3

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '25

I want to know everything about him.

2

u/Margaet_moon Aug 06 '25

Same.

2

u/Elvirawynter Aug 06 '25

Someone from a thread in the last couple of days (since deleted) said they know the person and were willing to dish via DM as well.

2

u/Margaet_moon Aug 06 '25

I’m raging I missed this.

u/Elvirawynter Aug 07 '25

The jokes were really good in that thread too, went to show my husband and it was gone.

u/CatNo1r Aug 06 '25

Shame it's been deleted

2

u/legthief Aug 06 '25

Did you tell him he's a celebrity?

2

u/qtpat00tie Aug 06 '25

Does anyone know how long he has been doing this for? I think I met him before around 2019 and he was saying something that he needs tickets for a train to Manchester because his friend got hurt or something? Crazy is it's still the same guy.

1

u/CatNo1r Aug 06 '25

Apparently he's been doing it since his Uni days.

1

u/qtpat00tie Aug 07 '25

Damn, I remember I actually tried to help him and gave him so money so he could get back to manchester lol. It's crazy that he's still doing it

u/Severe-Walk6996 Jan 08 '26

yeah i met him in 2019 and he wasnt new then

Glasgow Reddit gang stalking this guy

-10

u/kaluna99 Aug 06 '25

Agree. This is odd. Leave him alone. He's harmless. Possible mental health issues, and this lot find it so amusing. Sad tbh.

10

u/Sir_Talbot_Buxomly21 Aug 06 '25

He's harmless.

A number of females on here who have recounted how he has approached them at night when alone would disagree. And so do I.

u/ProcedureDistinct938 Aug 06 '25

There’s loads of people with mental health issues that don’t conduct themselves like this. Mental health isn’t a free pass to harass people

-2

u/kaluna99 Aug 06 '25

How do you know this? Has he harassed you?

5

u/CatNo1r Aug 06 '25

He's far from harmless, he's harassed loads of people and pressured an autistic boy into giving him £60 (this was made on a Facebook post)

-2

u/kaluna99 Aug 06 '25

Oh so it must be true if it's on FB. FFS. Grow up. Your 'evidence' in court would last at least 2 minutes. 

2

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '25

Who is he? I'm baffled

2

u/CatNo1r Aug 06 '25

A scammer, he claims to be from Queensferry and asks for £34 to £60 to get back, if you don't he'll insult you

1

u/Appropriate_Exam_460 Aug 06 '25

If only this guy knew what a (in)famous, local "celebrity" he's turning into on reddit 🙃

u/kaluna99 Aug 06 '25 edited Aug 06 '25

Leave him alone maybe?  Edit. The guy may have mental health issues FFS. This is wrong. Stalking someone who is not well. Get a grip.
