The Notorious Ned Kelly Conned in Cambodia by The Infamous Scammer James Whitlow

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

You think that looks bad. You should have seen it before the cops came and collected all the used condoms.

Used condoms left behind is no laughing matter, It happened to me three times already, once in a PP sublet appartement and twice in a Paris luxury condo.
That led me to think some people are subhuman.

So, he got a drum kit, amplifier, matress (slightly used) and some free clothes in exchange for a fishbowl?

Seeing pictures on Facebook posted by the landlord before/after, it seems this Ned (whoever he is) not just painted every wall (and possibly some glass panels) black, but also removed most glass panels. Now, whether you like those glass panels or not, it's what you see when inspecting the place before you rent it. It's not something you can just remove or paint over when renting the place. Every normal person would understand that.

I can perfectly understand the landlord being pissed off. Wouldn't you be with some idiot thinking about YOUR property: "Right, now I've rented this, I'm totally going to 'redo' it"? Ned's rant against the landlord has totally backfired.

I don't know that Ned, but apparently some people do. Seeing this shit, to me he's a total nutter, of which there are already way too many in Cambodia.

Stricter visa laws, please!
Oh, wait...
