    Just block him.

  • Just got him to send me his drivers licence and address, drivers licence seems like a fake one (not 100% sure though it's issued in Australia)

    He also told me that address he sent (photo of a phone bill) is his old one, and he typed his "new one" at skype

  • for a job request he has made several spelling errors, not only that he's spotty as hell!

    Just found this on my Skype again.

  • "Diffrent Comapnys" "Doamin" "vwry" < Explains it all.

  • Block the guy.

    He added me on skype and he's applying for a technical support spot. He seems fishy and afair he told me he's from the USA

    Seems like he's lying to me.. He told me he only contacted 2 company's (Ixam-Hosting and mine)

    Hugh has been about for must be 5-6 years now. I am surprised he is still alive given the amount of cancer, tumours, 18th/19th Birthdays and so on that he has had.

    Are you thinking it's just sloppy, or that it's just him avoiding spam filters...

  • Good ol' Hugh

    hmm...

  • jhjh Member
    1. Try to avoid using Skype for work
    2. If something looks fishy just say no
  • Not worth the time. Not even worth this thread, seriously, but thanks for spreading the word.

  • RadiRadi Host Rep, Veteran

    Is his skype hugh-lock ?
    I have him :D

  • Hugh contacted me for some web design work but it didn't end up working out. (I wanted 100% upfront because it seemed a bit suspicious)
    It was for his new site: hostgladiators.com

  • Is this Huon Lock? Australia, similar name. http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1139031

  • Yes, that looks like the same guy. I was just trying to remember what his name was

  • Thanks for the warning, I've been wondering about this guy too..

  • Just block it, this son has contacted us few month ago and we rejected to hire for our support team. We curious when he try to spamming with a lot conversation that look like drunk people which too much drink. He tell us also wanna reporting our company to international court just because we rejected with the reason "not qualified"

  • This is hilarious! :D

    This is hilarious.

  • SaikuSaiku Member, Host Rep

    probably he wants access to solusvm/whmcs and add his own personal account with $9000 store credit and use it for his own vps.
