That surely was a 'mock-up' to demonstrate how people like that operate!!! otherwise they would not have shown themselves......because arrest would be inevitable!!!!

A regulator who does not assist the members of the public when they have been mis sold products is not worth the paper they wipe their asses with each day.

A regulator who bends over backwards to assist big finance houses yet openly refuses to help people who have invested in guernsey with guernsey companies and have lost millions of pounds

A regulator whos staff lie in correspondence then back track when contacted by the data protection.

Split capital trusts,warrants,equitable life,landsbanki and many more all products sold in guernsey by guernsey regulated companies who received zero assistance from the gfsc despite them sending correspondence in writing previously to members of the public saying they would assist.

Particularly prevalent around Paris Metro ticket machines,
where a friendly local in the queue offers to help you obtain your seven-day
pass. He gets the right option up on the screen, but your card mysteriously
won’t work. No matter, he will use his and you can pay him back in cash. So much
for unfriendly Parisians - this guy’s a Samaritan! Only after performing the
transaction and watching him speed off down an escalator do you realise you have
paid him 77 euro for a single-use ticket.

You didn’t spot the sly criminals eyeing you and your possessions as you
filled in the form at the hire-car stand. A few miles down the road, just after
you’ve stopped at a red light, your tyre bursts. Generously, the motorcyclists
that were alongside your vehicle at the lights offer their aid in changing the
slashed tyre – and snatch all your belongings while you’re struggling with the
jack. Most common in the touristy parts of Spain, but it also occurs in
Thailand.

The arrival of a couple of rolls unbidden at your French restaurant table causes
you no stomach tremors: you would expect such free sundries when dining out in
Britain. But what’s this on the bill? A single stale bap, which you didn’t
touch, for the equivalent of £3 - and £2 for the butter? Heaven help you if you
assumed those other plates of nibbles were included in the price. Such creeping
additions to the bill are common in Portugal, for example, but if you don’t
touch the dishes, or wave them away when they arrive, you won’t be charged.
