James Charles / Jamie Goatley is a SCAMMER!James collected my Audemars Piguet watch in May to sell on consignment. 2 months later, he said that he sold it and that I would receive funds in the next 12 business days. Obviously, nothing arrived. He then said that there was a problem and that I would get the funds in the next few days. Again, nothing. In September, he offered to get a watch directly from the dealer at retail and use the money towards the new watch, as he knows an AP ambassador, so I agreed. Since then, he just came up with more excuses for not getting the new watch. James also took another watch, a Rolex, to sell on consignment in a few days. He confirmed that he sold it and gave multiple promises and deadlines for payment. Obviously, payment never came. He just came up with lots of excuses, such as: bank account blocked, got robbed, has to pay someone else, waiting for funds from someone else, etc.After googling again (and deeper), I found an article about him, how he robbed lots of other people (Olympia Mayfair was his previous scam), and I found lots of negative reviews from people in the same situation. Since then, I got in touch with the AP ambassador through my contacts, who confirmed that he knew nothing about getting me a new watch at retail (and he’s also in the same situation - not getting paid).I’ve reached out numerous times to James for an explanation and to get my money from him. All I got from him was more excuses, and this time he said that my AP is actually still with him!He told me that I will get my watch back through his solicitor and that he will write to me. Obviously, nothing from this solicitor in 2 weeks (because he doesn’t exist, it’s just another lie!)At the time of writing, no money has been sent to me, nor have I received my AP back.I will resort to contacting my contacts if I don’t receive my funds and my AP watch! A TOTAL OF £73,050 HAS BEEN STOLEN BY JAMES
