Yep I got one as well......seen wiltshire police at the top and thought....sh!t....speeding. I got a second letter same day from the victim support unit offering guidance on how to cope with being a victim.Offering guidance and help to deal with the trauma and shock of this offence....I kid ye not. I was still laughing after opening the first one so didn't bother calling victim support...I can just about cope. Quote
gregers Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 just for the crack kev you want to phone them up and be really distraut over being a 'victim' and see whether they pi55 themselves when you explain its about a set of CAR MATS, :lol: Quote
veedyf Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 yeah go on...never know might get some compo :lol: :D Quote
big_kev Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 I could try that.....you never know . Obviously this is the first time I have bought anything on ebay that may have been dodgy :D I suppose I could play up a bit on the distress that this has caused and the suffering that I have gone through.Am now unable to drive because of the worry that the Police may pursue this and i could end up being arrested and possibly face a fine or imprisonment :lol: Added to this is the distraction caused by these mats being permanantly fixed in my car and causing me to keep glancing down at them, thereby taking my eyes of the road and possibly leading to an accident. :D The sleepless nights I have had since receiving the letter and the thought that the criminal that sold them to me may be seeking me out to extract revenge. :D In the light of some of the compensation claims that have been in the papers recently I think I may be justified in looking for somewhere in the region of around Quote
