I hear what you're saying, but that doesn't seem to be what's happening here. These seem like scared kids hoping to make a quick buck…

How were you expecting to assist? It's pretty rare to recover your money from a scammer, I don't see how anybody could help. I had a friend…

These are kids recruited to do the sale. My friend asked for a receipt when she was scammed, and the kid was so nervous he couldn't write.

For those who can't believe this story, try this one on. My wife also scammed a scammer. She got ripped off by a money changer in Bali. She…

It's a good outcome. What you achieved is quite impressive - you were never going to get more than that. There are YouTube channels of…

Welcome to OZB. We initiate newcomers with bullying. If you stick around, most of us will become more civil, except for a few touchy…

lol a friend got done with the exact same scam on FBM. There weren't as gullible as you though, they paid $1000. :)

The kid would rather lose 1 sale and not get in trouble with police

I'm almost sure @Jimothy Wongingtons was being sarcastic.

I def do not have that problem. I just installed it in the office and had everyone looking at me when the stupid thing started playing…

As most have said, just chill and allow time for them to get back to you. But I would forget about it. There's a decent chance that they…

re what the couple's scenario: They've really made poor decisions, and also refused sound advice. The PPOR loan should be fully offset. The…

You started with an investment property is definitely smarter (which I don't agree with), then end with the advantages of a PPOR (which I…

you're 100% right, but gosh it isn't a popular view here. I'm really intrigued by the power of propaganda, Hamas has totally achieved their…

Thanks, that sounds like a great watch. I looked up the story: I don't know whether this show totally strays from the facts and suggests…

I agree. PPOR is one of the best investments available in Australia, though it only holds wealth rather than distributing it. Super is even…

Sure, but it's at ATO's discretion and OP could be stuck with a big CGT bill if they can't prove that they lived in it before renting it…

Are you sure about that? I think you need to have lived in the house before it can become PPOR.

If you're trying to reduce income by negative gearing, I'd do the long-term maths. How long before rent > expenses, and did the tax savings…
