David Ridyard and netwise.es

Ridyard has now relaunched his internet business under the name of netwise.es.  If you value your money and your business do not deal with this man. He will con you out of thousands.  He runs his business from his new home in Limaria, Almeria Spain.

Why this blog

This blog has been set up to warn people of a fraudster who operated in the Preston area of Lancashire England. He is well known to police and has served 3 months in prison for fraud.

His name is David Ridyard. He owns netwisecomputing.co.uk and now operates under netwise.es and formerly owned Stridergold online shop.

He has in the last 18 months accessed and altered an enquiry form on a popular Hotel in Cumbria where he set the form to send the enquiries to his email account and not the hotel's.  He then took bookings and requested a deposit from the guests. Obviously when the guests at the hotel arrived the hotel had no record of a booking.
This happened many times until the hotel realised what was going on.  Someone traced this man to Spain and now to Almeria.  But they are unaware of his actual location.

I have been trying to trace him for 3 years to get money he owes me.

For further information about this evil man please read this, it is quite disturbing what this man has done to others as well as myself.  http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=894321&page=3   and this

If you know the actual whereabouts of this man let this blog know. Your details will be confidential or you can send it anonymously.

It seems that his wife Margaret is also involved in the scam

David Ridyard of Netwise Computing Spain scams local theatre group

We have been informed that Ridyard is up to his old tricks again. this time he managed to persuade a local theatre group to use his paypal account for people to buy tickets. Hope he has now  not done a runner with their money. I am surprised that they trust him.

Moneywise bottle it...

Since the original posting Moneywise have been frightened off by this fraudster and removed the thread about this disgusting person.  But the reporter of the Lancashire Post is now back on the case and is actively researching this vial excuse for human being.
