We too have been conned out of £475 by this crook. He emailed us one evening offering us a great mortgage deal which he told us was with Woolwich. We sent him the money and then he went incommunicado apart from the occasional email asking us whether we had found a property yet. We spent time and money seeking a property and jobs in a new area and were just about to agree on a house when we contacted him to tell him that we wanted to go ahead, and found we could not contact him. We tried phoning and emailing all to no avail. Now we realise that we have been conned and we need this money back. Has anybody managed to ascertain where he is? One of the email addresses he gave us last week was in America. Does anyone know whether anybody still lives at his old address and who they are?

Never done a blog before ...so here goes... I have also have had the misfortune of an encounter with Nigel M and have read with amazement the thread attatched. Back in Dec 09 I needed a loan organised so Nigel M got on the case. I supected a con back in early Jan 2010 and contacted the FSA and told them in no uncertain terms what had transpired. I mentioned the words theft,fraud and con. I was told to jump through FSA hoops, which I did. The process took 9 months and I was transfered to the compensation scheme a month ago.. They say I don't have a hope in hell of any redress ( 2 weeks ago ) What I find unconcerting is the fact that their confidence in Nigel M was not dealt with by his supension until June, 5 months after I raised the matter. In one of my conversations with the FSA help desk I clearly stated that action should be taken as he would clearly continue with such easy pickings.

I shall go back to the FSA now that the size of the problem has come to my attention and ask if they will change their stance.....on thing for sure i will not be holding my breath

Good luck !!!

It is easy to check if the posted e-mail did originate from Devere in South Africa. The person who holds the position is based in Cape Town and is female. I could provide her name and contact details but that wouldnt be the thing to do on a web site

Cumbria police appeal for mortgage broker victims to come forward
By Pam McClounie

Last updated at 13:39, Wednesday, 03 November 2010

Police are appealing for people who may have been duped by mortgage broker Nigel Alexander McClements to contact them.

McClements, 41, of Scaleby, near Carlisle, is due to be sentenced at Carlisle Crown Court on Friday after he admitted a £35,000 nationwide fraud involving dozens of victims.

Police now believe the bankrupt businessman may have duped other customers and are appealing for people to contact them.

Detective Constable Christine Hardman, a financial investigator with Cumbria police, said: “We believe there may be other victims and we are appealing for them to come forward.

“We need people to get in touch with us so we can take witness statements.”

McClements duped his victims by charging for services such as house surveys – but failed to perform the tasks and kept the cash clients handed over.

He then went to South Africa, where he spent time gamblin so, he claimed, he could get money to pay back the people he ripped-off.

He failed to return to the country to speak to detectives investigating complaints from about 35 victims.

He was tracked down and arrested in Belfast, where he was putting his children through private education.

McClements appeared before Carlisle Magistrates’ Court last month where he admitted 16 counts of committing fraud by false representation.

He was refused bail and remanded in custody ahead of his sentencing on Friday. It also emerged in court that his house in north Cumbria is being repossessed.

He defrauded people out of amounts ranging from hundreds to thousands of pounds.

He set up his business Northumbria Mortgages in Scaleby in 2003 and things went fine for the first few years until the recession bit.

Anyone who may have been duped by McClements, who has not yet spoken to the police, can call Det Con Hardman on 0845 33 00 247.

Carlisle mortgage broker fleeced £80,000 from clients, court told
Published at 09:46, Friday, 08 April 2011

A crooked Carlisle mortgage broker fleeced his clients out of nearly £80,000 before fleeing the country in an attempt to escape justice, it has been revealed.

The amount of money involved in Nigel McClements’ crimes was disclosed for the first time at a brief hearing at Carlisle Crown Court.

McClements, who used to live in Scaleby, near Carlisle, was expecting to be sentenced after previously pleading guilty to 16 charges of fraud, involving the way he accepted money from his customers without doing any work for them in return.

He has also asked for 54 similar offences to be taken into consideration. But the case was adjourned by Judge Peter Hughes QC until the summer.

McClements set up his business, Northumbria Mortgages, in 2003 and things went well for the first few years until the recession.

The business started having financial problems and he started to dupe clients by charging for work that he never actually carried out.

He then left for South Africa, where he spent time gamblin so, he claimed, he could get money to pay back the people he had ripped off.

The now bankrupt businessman was eventually tracked down and arrested in Belfast, where he was putting his two children through private education.

After yesterday’s hearing McClements was remanded in custody
