I too was scammed. Both times by Vanessa and I paid £150 on 15/12/21 and a further £299 on 31/3/22. The original advert was on facebook to which I responded. They strung me along talking about a refund of £9500 and how their team of solicitors were hard at work processing my claim. I put a warning on facebook to alert other would be victims following which I received a threatening phone call from a male person telling me to take the comment down or he would sue me for libel/slander. I have written off the money especially as it was so long ago but if it helps I will report it.

Does anyone know where he lives?
Night Owl Ltd I was scammed out of £150 for a mortgage refund and no work done. Has anyone hot a Police crime report number ?
I went through ACAS and got a higher court writ to claim back unpaid wages. Unfortunately, because they keep moving and changing company names, the high court writ becomes invalid. Bit of a pointless process if you ask me.
Callum Laithwaite & Vanessa Laithwaite are also mentioned on this page: https://who-calls.me.uk/phone/01133227744
A wise man once said, "never upset someone who is left alone with your food!". If I live to be a hundred I will never stop smiling when I remember Vanessa & Callum Laithwaite's piggy little faces gorging on my special sauce. Added with vengeance everytime they vexed me!
Have you contacted Action Fraud, regarding their activities?
These 2 scammers Callum & Vanessa Laithwaite. Its great to see more people report these 2 to Action Fraud. Nothing came of my report I lost £400.00 mortgage scam. I made my comment here so I follow anything to do with these cons. The more people that report these scumbags the more the Police will see the fraud that these pair are committing on a daily basis & getting away with it. I can't wait to hear one day these scumbags are caught & get locked up for a very long time.
She has her date of birth listed as 1972. The woman is in her 60s.
They are trading as BDP BDPGROUPUK LTD - Company number 14881849. Vanessa Smith is on companies house as the director. I have also just submitted a case to action fraud. Hopefully, by now they have a fair bit of evidence. But if anyone else has been scammed I also recommend reporting it.

That is very interesting regarding your experiences with Callum Laithwaite and Vanessa Laithwaite and their Fraudulent activities. Would you be willing to report what you saw to the police at Action fraud? If they owe you wages, you can contact ACAS to resolve the issue for you.
