Mr King took a deposit for an apartment rental but did not offer confirmation of the availability of the apartment. After several attempts to confirm the rental dates he cancelled our agreement and promised to return the deposit. Despite numerous enquiries about the whereabouts of the deposit it was never returned. He then resorted to threats and legal action if I continued to attempt to recover my money.

The police say that he is known to them but he exploits loopholes and practicalities in civil law.
