Shame on Chris Essery!
I'm a big watch enthusiast. I love watches and was most upset to have found out about this fraud by Chris Essery.
The past couple of days I've gone through pages and pages of material on TRF. Thank you to the moderators who had kept the original page going as long as they did. Some people posted on there that Chris still had his Patreon page going. It was still up moments ago and so I have written to Patreon asking for them to remove his income source from Patreon. Not only has he committed fraud but also now deleted his online presence. That's not the hallmark of an innocent man. I want our community to stay honest and have the highest standards and people like Chris Essery should be made accountable for perpetuating fraud and fake watches. These fakes have no place in our society. More should be done to shut down frauds and fakes. |

Maybe too much site traffic, this topic has created a lot of interest.
Have you tried iTunes, Spotify etc for the podcast? Edit: just checked, interview available on Spotify and iTunes for those interested. Last edited by chrisbrown2243; 7 February 2020 at 06:10 PM.. Reason: More info. |

Thanks everyone for taking the time to listen to the interview.
Shohaib was an absolute gent and even speaking for over an hour kept everything civil with no name calling or anything which is a testament to the man himself. I doubt I could have kept my cool recounting a story like that. I fully agree with the comments here that hearing the information from the person it happened to gave far more depth than just reading words on the screen. Our server took a tumble this morning as rightly pointed out the interview got more traffic than any previous edition of our show but was back up within a few hours thankfully. And thanks again to the moderators and admin team here on TRF for moderating the original thread and allowing me to post Shohaib's story here too. All the best, Rikki

I just listened to the podcast. Shohaib and Rob have performed a public service for the watch world by both painstakingly putting the details together and then reporting them to TRF. Thank you, Rikki, for providing an additional platform. Hearing the spoken word is very different from reading it on the page. Well done.

Very kind words guys, much appreciated.
Sorry if this is not the place, but I didn't know where else to place this info, this came in via my PMs. It's from someone that want to remain anonymous, but has some very important info to anyone that is still dealing or has dealt with HH/Chris. ![]() |

Rob,
Thank you brother for what you did for the watch community and having all the patience in the world. I got absolutely disgusted by what he did to so many. All the while stumbling upon on Bark and Jack video saying that on “face value” everything didn’t seem that bad before then bringing up some of the points about the fake pictures etc. I mean how can someone say not that bad period? He screen shot your avatar and posted it on his video before saying we all hide behind our avatars. I just thought in my opinion he should’ve ripped HH to death or said nothing at all. Just my 2 cents

So he was never duped into any fakes, he deliberately bought them knowing full well they are fakes. Clear intent to do harm, this is not for “research purposes”....spreading over more than half a year. |

Do the sales / DHL tracks (that go from HK to Perth) some what proof that all those packages were bought from a Fake seller? If so then this would be of course quite disgusting... |
