Marcus Paauwe lived with me in Cork from November 2008 till May 2009 when he suddenly disappeared. Turned out they owed me and many other people money (combined many thousands of euros). As we did more research we found he had been doing this for years all over Europe. My first post describing what we found when he initially left -> http://www.baldy.za.net/node/665
In the last 6 months, I have found out some more information and tracked down Marcus Paauwe to a B&B near the main train station in Frankfurt. Managed to get in contact with him on his new email address beatsteak76@googlemail.com (even asked him out on a date www.neu.de). He was very apologetic via email and of course promised to pay the money he owed me, but did not follow through on his promises. He was working as network admin till two of his previous employers had found out about his past on the internet and asked him to leave. |

Marcus Paauwe and his then girlfriend lived with me in Cork from November 2008 till May 2009 when they suddenly did a runner. We came home to find they had packed everything and left without as much as leaving a note. What a coward, he could have at least written a note saying so long sorry about the money I owe you.
He left owing just over a months rent. I found out I got off pretty luckily, his colleagues at Apple we he worked had made him personal loans which he of course will not be paying back as he has presumably left the country. After he had left I started opening his mail to try and get some idea of where he has gone to. This revealed that he had also taken out a personal loan from a loan company (charging 150% APR). So he is really working it from every angle and will get caught out eventually. I did my bit and called up his bank and the loan company making them aware so they can monitor and hopefully freeze his accounts. |

Today I am making the 800m trek with all my possessions from the 4 star hotel where I have been staying (and spoilt at) on to my new flat. The flat hunting process has been scary, expensive and fanned my paranoia. I have the keys now, but the details are not all sorted out so I reckon Im 50% of the way there. Its a great little flat though smack in the middle of town, two rooms and two bathrooms all that and a little balcony. I will put up pictures tomorrow. Staying at the hotel as been great, but I really have been too busy to make the full use of it. I only got to the gym once and the novelty of having someone make your bed and hang up your towels while your at work soon wears off. |
