Deals Our Advice Always take the rent in advance and get a deposit, get a photocopy of passports. For longer lets have an agreement and have someone in Gambia to collect the rent in advance for you. These pages are not a black list of individuals - this is why we remove all names.They are just incidents that may help visitors to The Gambia and remember that each story is being from just one view point Do you have Gambian experiences that may help new visitors Comments to GTS |
At GTS we have heard of Europeans
cheating Gambians and Europeans cheating Europeans - We had the Dutch
couple who took a picture from GTS saying they would send the money as
soon as they got home, they never did. And the UK couple who we helped
and supported when they were arrested for possessing forged money - to
prevent them going to jail we paid their fine of over £100 - they
never sent us back the money. The mailing:
Gambian conman: We know they exist and are always careful
whom to trust. What we had not expected was a UK con-woman ! ! ! Over a year ago we rented our Gambian compound out to an
English woman, name AE. She had two young children whom where also in
The Gambia for 4 months with her. She misused the staff on our compound, for example getting
them to wash the clothes of all her 5 Gambian boyfriends and her own family
of three on a daily basis without paying the lady as she should have. They made a mess out of the house, gave away our towels,
allowed the children to make drawings on the freshly painted walls and
then left without paying and provided a false address. During the 4 months she decided to take a young cat as a
toy for her kids, never thinking about the consequences, the cat is still
in our compound. We found out that she is living in London and we tried to
get our money and some for the damage caused by using a bailiff. Even
the bailiff was scared to visit her at her home address, the doors where
barricaded, the bailiff felt threatened by her boyfriends and we never
saw the money. Please put A E on your blacklist, don't rent a house to
her, unless you don't care what happens to your property... Kind regards 5 Top
