I'm not sure you understand. First off, I'm not Canadian. I also fail to
see the connection between being Canadian and being a crook. Susan and
I
were recently ripped off by a seller in Florida. Should I assume from
your
response that everyone in Florida, or perhaps the whole of the US, should
be
avoided?

I'm all for prosecution, and severe punishment, but the guilty parties,
not
everyone that inhabits a particular region.

There is probably more crooks per capita in the US than in Canada. I think
more people should try to get crooks prosecuted rather than being
embarrassed about being ripped off and not doing anything.

And if Americans keep sending him money and not making actual
complaints to the authorities about getting ripped off, why would he
stop ripping people off ? Between the US and Canadian Posties, various
police organizations, and just plain old word gettin' around (Al Babin
ring a bell?) the guy should not be able to operate, but I am reasonably
sure he rely's on people shrugging their shoulders and accepting a loss
as being less hassle than the effort it would take to do something about
it. To get police to do something, first, someone must make a formal
complaint. Our lazy as police are no better or worse than the American
lazy ass police.

Cheers

So THAT'S why nobody can do anything about Al Babin in Connecticut....
it's Canadian cops who are supposed to be after him!! I should have

Ah, yes, now here we have a problem. Thankfully we only have Tim
Horton's up here and not Krispy Kreme. Our fuzz would be twice the
size :-) Ever seen a cruiser with the lights on race to the nearest
donut shop? I have. Hilarious.

Seriously though it's a good idea. Where do you start? The local
police will say it's not their problem, the RCMP will say either it's
not a federal offense or they're looking into it - and never do
anything about it. The media doesn't care because it's too small.
You're left with small claims court. A formal complaint starts the
process I guess?? Will eBay shut him out? Has either post office
done anything??

I think your assumption that terrorists are no threat to Canada is wrong
and
my reasons for thinking that are as follows.

Canada supplies the U.S.A. with far more oil/gas than all other countries
combined including Saudi Arabia. We also have an inter connected
hydroelectric and water grid that makes both our countries extremely
interdependent. Our mutual border includes many major bridges and
tunnels
that if they where attacked would cripple both our economies. We are
your
largest trading partner by far and that makes your security and ours a
mutual concern. Any terrorist with a brain knows what I have just said
is

Maybe, but I haven't seen yet a terrorist decry Canada, for any of the
reasons above. They decry, and hate the U.S. I haven't seen them burn the
Canadian flag on the nightly news, or as was already said, pronounce Canada
as "the great satan". I haven't seen them burn the Canadian leadersip in
effigee. And I really haven't seen the news footage of terrorists crashing
airliners into Canadian buildings.

You're right there. Who would want to do anything Canada? We don't
get involved except in a peace-keeping way, and while our government
is offensive, it's only to its citizens.

We simply don't have the troops to be everywhere. As for burning the
Canadian flag I think the US was only one burning the Cdn flag -
wasn't there an incident last year about it? Or was it booing the
Canadian anthem at a hockey game? Can't quite recall but I do recall
it was rather rude and uncivilized.

true and that my friend means we all have to be vigilant, doesn't it?

Or be more aware of the world? Change your foreign policy to be less,
um, what's the word I'm looking for .... can't quite think of it right
now.


You also have to take in to consideration that we have over 2000 troops in
Afganistan fighting the war on terrorism and that means the terrorist
don't
really like us either. I personally wish we had a bigger military force
but
I'm very proud of the extremely well trained professional men and women we
have stationed over there.

As am I, good for those guys. But the U.S. is the focus of radical muslim
hatred, not Canada. So I don't think it is beyond the pale that entrance
into the U.S. might take a little longer, be you a human or be you a crate.
And if you think, as one poster does, that U.S. customs equates to 1930's
and 40's nazi's (and I'm pretty sure you don't), then you need to go back
and re read your 20th century history. The Canadians were also there when we
beat down the nazi's, and I'm glad for that too!.

To be accurate, I think the correct phrase is that the Americans
joined Canada, Britain and many others in WW2. The war had been going
on for a while when the US joined in. Having the US in there with so
many troops really turned the war around.

Paudash is a largely Native community in the Keene / Rice lake area.
South East of Peterborough. I believe the amalgamated community in
that area is now known as Hiawatha. Serpent Mounds park is part of the

If your contacted by this guy or see a post from
" or " don't
deal with him!!! He had a low profile for a while, but he's back at
the scamming.

Most Current info is:

Dave Munroe (doubt if that's real)
220 Paudash Road (doesn't show up on Yahoo Maps)
Hiawatha, Ontario, Canada K0L-2G0 (Again, the city of Hiawatha
doesn't show on Yahoo, and this is a new city compared to his old city
of Keene)
Cell phone (yeah right) is 705-313-1518

Mail is beginning to bounce to the lower case
. My most recent email from him was dated
in mid-May in which he claimed that the mail is slow.

He currently has several ID's still active on Ebay of "leanna2000",
"-pokey-", "Quake99" and "Invest7". All have 0 feedback's but ebay
only goes back 30 days for history now. So information is skimpy.

Repost of old info, but it might help to put it into this thread.


A serious warning about Dave Munroe, Internet scammer, living in
Keene, Ontario, Canada. In addition to Internet and eBay theft, he's
now added mail fraud to the list. He sends letters of payment,
supposedly with cash payments, but there's nothing in the envelope
except the actual letter. A police officer he scammed opened one of
these in front of Postal Employees, mail fraud charges are being
filed.

If you have ordered anything and sent payment to one of these two
addresses, you've been scammed:

Dave Munroe Alternate Address:
R.R. #2 Keene 220 Paudash Road
Ontario, Canada Keene, Ontario Canada
K0L2G0 K0L2G0
(705) 295-4688 (705) 295-4612

He has also used a Peterborough address and several alias names for
eBay auction site bidding, where he "bids up" his own merchandise,
receives payment, and sends nothing. Two people so far have lost over
$100 each on eBay purchases, several others are possible victims. The
eBay site management has been notified of his aliases and activities,
but he uses falsified user information to avoid capture.

17 verified incidents of Internet and eBay auction theft are known so
far, and more possible... we're waiting for email from several more.

This guy advertises for sale or trade of computer, ham radio,
electronic, and camping gear. He NEVER sends his agreed part of
transaction, money or goods, and after the shipment arrives, he never
answers e-mails and the phone number is never answered (used to be a
BBS line he ran).

In August, he has scammed a half-dozen people for hard drives and
modems. In addition, he's recently been advertising Asus motherboards
and a Cyrix mini-tower system in non-forsale newsgroups, since
warnings have been issued in all for-sale areas.

He has used these aliases for email, auction sites, and Internet
theft:












If you are doing ANY business with someone in the Keene/Peterborough
area of Ontario, BE SURE you have good contact info with your party...
contact both work and home phones and addresses, etc. This guy seems
to have a few available phone numbers, and at least 3 mailing/shipping
addresses.

If you've been involved in a fraudulent sale with Dave Munroe, please
contact or Rick Park at

authorities, and various Internet authorities and email providersSee

Too late now, you should have done your home work before dealing with him.
If you had checked him out with google you'd know he's been ripping people off
for years. The Canadian authorities wouldn't help you, my advice is to never
deal
with Canadians.

I've been ripped off by Americans in the past - guess we shouldn't
deal with them either - eh???

Actually, postal codes with zeros do not always denote general delivery!
Mine is like that, and there are rural Green Boxes for most people. In the
case of the Green Boxes, the house address is tied to the box. The box
clusters are a few hundred feet apart. Anything sent to my house address,
goes to my nearby box. The actual box number is not part of my address.

Hey Regis,

You have not stated "where" you sent the money. Hiawatha is not the
best known place in Ontario, but Canada Post would have found the
closest place with a name like that to the postal code you used.
Microsoft Streets & Trips gives three suggestions, all in the
Peterborough to Ottawa area. Do you have the actual postal code (ZIP)
for the as mailed address? For instance, I recently lived in an area
of Windsor called Forest Glade. If you had written to me with that
local colloquial name as the "city", it would not have gotten to me
unless the postal code was given too. One thing to note though, that
if any postal code in Canada has a "0" (numeral zero, not the alphabet
letter 'oh') as the second and last digit, it is a "general delivery"
type code. Mine is N0P 1C0, and means I have to actually go to the
local post office to pick up my mail, as there is no delivery service
here in this town.

Too late, but take care.

Bothwell, Ontario.

That 's crap and anyone who has followed the situation since 9/11 knows all
the terrorist where in the USA legally. There has been more than enough
misinformation about Canada being a haven for terrorist but most of it is
just a lot of bull**** that just gives the ill informed someone other than
their own security services to blame.

I think your assumption that terrorists are no threat to Canada is wrong
and
my reasons for thinking that are as follows.

Canada supplies the U.S.A. with far more oil/gas than all other countries
combined including Saudi Arabia. We also have an inter connected
hydroelectric and water grid that makes both our countries extremely
interdependent. Our mutual border includes many major bridges and
tunnels
that if they where attacked would cripple both our economies. We are
your
largest trading partner by far and that makes your security and ours a
mutual concern. Any terrorist with a brain knows what I have just said
is
true and that my friend means we all have to be vigilant, doesn't it?

You also have to take in to consideration that we have over 2000 troops
in
Afganistan fighting the war on terrorism and that means the terrorist
don't
really like us either. I personally wish we had a bigger military force
but
I'm very proud of the extremely well trained professional men and women
we
have stationed over there.

While your point is taken, I have a couple of questions:

What single nation is referred to by terroristic radical Islamics as
"The Great Satan"? Answer: The USA

What do those same terrorists call Canada? Answer: "Canada", or
"layover".

Well. My particular favorite story was that the INS sent one
of the hijackers his visa, after they crashed the planes.
Now that's what I call homeland security. Not.

That fine by me, I don't trust your people and I have no desire to

Your loss. We are only your largest trade partner and your largest
source of raw materials including oil and natural gas. If we turned
off the taps and closed the borders, we'd have no money, but you poor
fools would freeze your asses off and you'd have to walk, because your
fuel supply would dry up in about a week.

But Geargy Porgey wouldn't let that happen. If he couldn't sweet talk
our useless government into falling in line, he'd just treat us like
Iraq.

You realize 9-11 was only the second time in American History that
foreign nationals have ever attacked mainland American soil?? And
Washington at that?
That's why you have a "white house". The whitewash was required to
cover up the damage done when CANADIANS torched it in the war of 1812.

Actually, postal codes with zeros do not always denote general delivery!
Mine is like that, and there are rural Green Boxes for most people. In the
case of the Green Boxes, the house address is tied to the box. The box
clusters are a few hundred feet apart. Anything sent to my house address,
goes to my nearby box. The actual box number is not part of my address.

Steve R.

In the case of both rural "green boxes" and "super boxes" it is simply
because Canada Post does not consider it worth while providing door to
door delivery. A nd there are "generally" no (or very few) general
delivery boxes in the "post offices" which are now franchised outlets
in convenience stores more often than not.
Both Rural Routes and general delivery usually have the Letter Zero
Letter number letter Zero postal codes, while the urban super boxes
GENERALLY have location specific postal codes - often a separate code
for each super box. The postal code determines which package the mail
goes in, and which carrier picks it up to deliver.

This guy's postal code IS a general delivery which covers a wide area
south east of Peterborough Ontario, including the "Islands of the
Trent" first nation.

Hey Regis,

You have not stated "where" you sent the money. Hiawatha is not the
best known place in Ontario, but Canada Post would have found the
closest place with a name like that to the postal code you used.
Microsoft Streets & Trips gives three suggestions, all in the
Peterborough to Ottawa area. Do you have the actual postal code (ZIP)
for the as mailed address? For instance, I recently lived in an area
of Windsor called Forest Glade. If you had written to me with that
local colloquial name as the "city", it would not have gotten to me
unless the postal code was given too. One thing to note though, that
if any postal code in Canada has a "0" (numeral zero, not the alphabet
letter 'oh') as the second and last digit, it is a "general delivery"
type code. Mine is N0P 1C0, and means I have to actually go to the
local post office to pick up my mail, as there is no delivery service
here in this town.

Too late, but take care.

Brian Lawson,
Bothwell, Ontario.

That's at the ****ing commercial level, I don't deal in that ****.
Do you have any idea what they thread is about? I didn't think so.

Yes, I sure do. It appears some poor sucker paid too much for a cheap
lathe from some crook who CLAIMS to be Canadian, and has not recieved
it yet. Might never recieve it.
Problem is, if this guy is who/what I think he is, he can pull the
same stunt from your side of the border, as his "native rights" exist
both in Canada and the US, and nailing him will be a chellenge.

This is no reason to denigrate all Canadians - a few bad apples do not
make us all crooks, any more than a philandering jack-ass of a (past)
president and a sadly misguided (present) president make all
Americans morons and diddlers.

Wake up and smell the coffee.

Unfortunately, the coffee, like the beer, is too weak to have a smell.
OK, I didn't really mean that, but couldn't resist temptation.

James,

Just a suggestion, that I heard worked brilliantly the other way that
you might consider:

A good friend of mine in Toronto produces commercial videos and he got
stiffed by a large company in Florida. He called and called etc. but
nothing, they would pay. Eventually, he got the idea to contact Canada
Customs and report the problem to the border customs officials, who
entered the complaint in their database. The next time the company
shipped goods to Canada (that shipment had nothing to do with my friend)
they were held up at the border directly as a result of my friend's
complaint. When the company got desperate enough to clear the shipment
they were advised "why" their goods were being held. Miraculously, they
discovered their payment oversight and my friend received his overdue
payment in full by Fedex... He then contacted Canada customs and
eventually the shipment was released.

If you report same to US customs/immigration, this guy may get mega
hassled the next time he tries to enter the U.S.

Maybe just the threat of this action might persuade him to get his act
together. I would suggest you send him a letter by registered mail
warning him of the action you are going to take if you don't receive
what you've paid for within say 14 days.

But if you have to follow through with you action, make very sure you
have good documentation for your payment and all your attempts to
contact him.

Good luck from a Canadian who does keep his promises.

Cheers, Peter

If I lived near there I'd go kick his butt for you. I'm from Canada,
shop online a fair bit and can't stand this crap. Did you pay via
credit card (Paypal) or such thing? If so, they will track him down
and get your money back.

Good luck.
James


Several Canadians seem to be apologetic that this guy belongs to them,
that's not right. We have plenty of American scum, as does every other
country. Don't apologize just because he comes from Canada, after all, we
have Michaeal Jackson and the likeg.
I will make a note tho, that you are willing to kick butt for us if
necessary, thanks!

Hmm.. any ideas on what to do about being stiffed by a big US
publishing company? It's only $100 US.. but.. they sent me a check
that had payment stopped (they originally sent my payment to some dude
in India, and vice-versa, then asked that I return it, which I did,
then sent me the bad check!). They don't seem to care. You'd think a
company like Penton could do better. They certainly had no problem
taking *my* checks competently when I was paying them $thousands for
advertising. I've called a bunch of times, and sent the bad check back
(probably a mistake), nothing.

vaguely proposed a theory
.......and in reply I say!:

There is probably more crooks per capita in the US than in Canada. I think
more people should try to get crooks prosecuted rather than being
embarrassed about being ripped off and not doing anything.

Yep, more lawyers per capita too. Coincidence? :-)

He already said there were more crooks!
