SCAM Owner with a fake website - Harvey Keane

Post by GRL »

If you come across the Facebook profile of Harvey Keane, perhaps via a Facebook holiday accommodation group, he's a SCAMMER. Do NOT send him money. His facebook profile is fake and he has also created a fake website (pictures stolen from Right Move). He says he has a large property facing the River Dart in Devon.

His fake website - https ://dartviewfarm. co.uk/
Website photos stolen from here - https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/72637476

It seems to have been deleted. GoDaddy know who registered that domain name so you could talk to them if you want to find out the real name of the scammer.

Yes, the fake FB profile has been deactivated and the website reduced to a basic "Coming Soon" page. It is believed that this scammer has used a number of aliases and false websites/FB business pages over the recent months and will no doubt be back with new false pages. GoDaddy has been alerted but if anyone else wants to contact them it wouldn't do any harm. It took several months to get another fake website they hosted removed. contentcomplaints@godaddy.com

I doubt GoDaddy would give out the real name (data protection) but maybe they could be encouraged to report the fake website to Trading Standards.
