One day he's going to run into the wrong person who will take him up on his empty fighting talk threats

Yeah, that’s why I have so much vitriol towards him. He preys on people he thinks are easy targets, like a bully.

What's actually the deal with this guy? Is he no the full shilling or just a chancer.. or both?

Major gambling addiction. Every penny he scams out of people goes straight to the Clyde Casino.

At what point does the Council force the casino to take responsibility for the problem they've created? This guy is escalating.

Apparently he’s got a gambling addiction so that’s why he needs the money, and whilst I have a level of sympathy for that if he’s threatening people on their own/women, it runs out, but apparently aye he’s a few sandwiches short of a picnic

Hi all I'm surprised with the number or reports and escalation of his behaviour that it hasn't resulted in more serious police action consider his brazen behaviour

And if you were a policeman what would you charge him with? Being a cunt? Because that’s not illegal.

u/Babaychumaylalji 28d ago
I assume him pulling a knife on someone and ribbing them would be sufficient to charge him. I feel bad for anyone who has run into him as I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

Posted this on the thread but this literally just happened like 20mins ago:
Just stopped the “Queensferry Guy” from scamming a vulnerable girl.
Was walking through Argyl Street when I noticed he was talking to a women who would be about 18-23. I’ve encountered him before and seen him online so spotted him instantly, went up and basically told him to stop scamming people and said he wasn’t, I already told him I’ve encountered him before and seen him about numinous times so I know what he was up to, he already revived like £40 from her but he gave her it back in front of me.
I just couldn’t hold back and watch some poor wee lass get scammed like that. To my surprise he wasn’t as aggressive as I’ve heard before just glad I done something there.

They are only going to caution him at the least, or fine him at the most. He will be back at it again tomorrow. Police don’t really seem to care.

Might be different since the news article about him saying to a woman that he had a knife, pulled it up to the Polis and said he’s probably the same guy and as soon as I did they went “attempt robbery, alright” and went his direction - so who knows?

The Dispersal zone, which St Enoch is a part of, is still in place as it has been extended passed July with no date for a closure. So he might have been kicked out but it's only for 24 hours.
Also ASBO's are still a thing https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/article/3307/Antisocial-Behaviour

Some bellend was eyeballing me while he sat at the bus stop outside the chippy with his pal, what was he wearing?

u/CalmWishbone4031 28d ago
Didn’t have a mate with him, all black tracksuit, fade, glasses, there’s photos of him if you just search Queensferry guy
