"Mods, please feel free to remove this is not the correct forum to place this notice.
I gave this guy, ELLIOT ARNOLD, an American national, a massive discount on renting my spare room after a convincing sob story about his former housemate, who at the time I didn't know was owed money too. This offer was made on the proviso that he would work for me to help mitigate the unsustainable subsidy. We were friends, so I paid for all his food (literally every meal) and everything else including antibiotics, which I never received a cent for, despite endless promises, which we have since learned are the bread and butter of perpetual moochers.
By the end of June, I knew this slippery gypsy was no good, having racked up a debt of over $400 with me alone, for his share of rent and his share of the electric bill which was nearly a month late.
He left in the middle of the night, with all his stuff in a duffel bag, wearing my shirt and treading silently. My girlfriend noticed and alerted me, so I confronted him at the elevator where he looked sheepish and just kept saying he would pay when he could before skulking into the lift and disappearing into the night.. this was now a month ago.. I was so angry after all the opportunities we had given him to thrive where his rent was really cheap, he was being taught how to repair computers, every meal was Food Panda and paid for by us.
Now we are blocked, unable to find him and unable to recover the funds so desperately needed. Now he rides around drunk in tuk tuks at 3am with hookers and doesn't care who he has debts with. Please share this to your page to support.
He left with his rent unpaid at the Irish Pub where we lived (guess who had to pay it so they didn't get kicked out). I have since found out I am one of many people Elliot Arnold has tricked and deceived into helping him, each time living outside of his means until he is ejected. He then fabricates a story to make himself look like a victim and uses it to find his next host.
It is my understanding that there are a number of individuals in PP who have had similar interactions with Elliot and also never got their money.
Today I am starting a campaign to raise awareness of this malevolent cretin around town so that he can no longer suck the blood of those who enter his radar.
I would never write a post like this aside from out of sheet frustration. He has blocked me and another friend to whom he is also in debt.
He was last known to be living with Michael Van, who is the new supply and has not yet had his wallet chewed.
PP, please speak up and validate my accusations.
PS: yes, that is me cringing in the background.
Many thanks
