Ref 1, Ref 2 - Between the eyes

What bullsh*t ... all from Scoresby?? You wouldnt happpen to be the same person by any chance

And you put a disclaimer at the bottom of your own post>> u do know that yr saying your own post might be inaccurate or incomplete (oh yeah, it is) ?

Anyway - please keep posting here - it drives this page to the top of the rankings and then people will read the whole thing - ahead of your own bogus sites - WFT - idiot

Natcon, Danny, Bilby (whatever you wanna call youself) - your final milestone is 5%. That way potentially you'd get 95% of the price for totally incompetent crappy builds and you'd never come back and fix the sh*te anyway.

Do you really think mssing out on the final payments really drove you under? Your dummer than we thought (and believe me we thought u were pretty dumb)

Perhaps we should start posting a few VCAT findings word for word? Or maybe emailing them to your current clients (oh, yeah - we know a few of them) - these people obviously dont have the intermagicalnet. maybe if they do it is down? Oh, but they do have real mailboxes

Why dont you post a few phone numbers of your refereneces ?? Oh, I know - cos there fake!! If one searches the internet had enough phone numbers can be found - the results arent good for you Danny - we've looked

Just go bankrupt d*ckhead - the Natcon name is mud now - anyone with an internet search engine will work this out. Oh, but you probably dont know this cos your internet is down

Anyway, wont be long now - If Omerta gets you Between the eyes, well, guess u got it coming

Thief, liar, cowboy builder - they got it mostly right ... you are being watched. But a reprimand is the best you could hope for. What would be the worst I wonder

What has not been disclosed are the following facts mitigating the financial position stated and
providing background to the failure of Natcon Developments Pty Ltd to meet payments as and when they fell due..
The circumstances of ND’s demise can be summarized by an accumulation of client’s failing to make final payments for projects completed by ND combined with an overpayment of monies by ND to a trusted associate firm and the resultant legal costs eventually preventing ND from pursuing its rights and clearing its debts.
This resulted in Natcon being unable to pay its debts as they became due and unable to settle them with any substantial benefit to the ongoing viability of Natcon.

The difficulties commenced when a client (Flinn - VCAT Ref: D183/2013) moved into his newly renovated home and refused to make the final payment. The matter was contested in VCAT and
was settled in ND’s favour although legal costs offset any benefit obtained in the win. Effectively this matter resulted in a loss of working capital of approximately $68,000.

Very quickly following this, a developer (Markos Developments & Ors - VCAT Ref: D450/2013) failed to pay for work completed by ND. The developer took possession of units constructed by ND without making the final payment.
This matter dragged out over time and when the hearing became imminent and because of other simultaneous legal actions ND did not have the funds to litigate. The matter required an expert report and extensive preparation. There was a reasonable likelihood of a payout but unlikely to be the claimed amount without expert evidence. This matter resulted in a reduction in working capital for ND of approximately $112,000.

On another project (R & S Scamporlino - VCAT Ref: D1181/2012) the owners took possession of their extensively renovated home without making the final payment. This matter ran for 5 days in VCAT and a further 2 day hearing was set down for final submissions. Because of lack of funds no one attended the final days and a substantial judgment was handed down against the company.
There was a reasonable likelihood of a partial payout in this matter. It effectively meant a loss of working capital of approximately $70,000.

The total amount of working capital lost due to these projects was $250,000 combined with a $120,000 debt that should not have been made

The major blow to the business was in AW Developments
Vic - County Court Ref: CI-14-01074.
Wayne Martin the director of AW Developments
was paid $366,000 to make payments to
creditors on ND’s behalf. AW failed to pay the creditors
and has now claimed $300,000 against ND.
The liquidators are considering whether to challenge this but it is a complex and expensive forensic
accounting exercise. This matter has a reasonable likelihood of a significant payout if it is run.

Conclusion
As the domino effect of matters weighed in on ND , advise was given to wind it up. The legal costs to pursue the rights of ND were overwhelming and, given the position of ND, had to be paid into trust in advance of the work being done.
The final balance would have been progressively reduced with the continuation of work and some would not even be due other that through the liquidation causing the debts to be called in.

Danny Daher is a competent builder and the principal has been in construction for over 19 years
without any previous judgements. The Company has adjusted its business model to reduce the volume of work and reliance on site personnel other than Danny Daher himself controlling the works.

Dear Danny,
Given that you have now successfully completed the renovation at our house, I thought you
might appreciate some feedback. Although this note was not requested by you please feel free
to use this as a reference for prospective clients.
As you may recall, due to our architect "dropping the ball" we needed to find a builder at short
notice. When you received my call for help you responded immediately and efficiently and
provided a very competitive quote. We decided to go with you (although we had other quotes)
and have never regretted it. In particular, you and your team:
• were always polite and punctual;
• followed through on commitments;
• addressed any issues that arose in a prompt and pleasant manner; and
• were easy to communicate with.
I would also like to commend you on James, your project supervisor. He was charming and
knowledgeable and went the extra mile on everything he did.
In summary, it was a pleasure to deal with your company and I would certainly recommend
you to anyone else thinking of doing renovations.
Regards
Robyn

RE : Construction of a new outbuilding.
To whom it may concern,

After having been through the building process several times before and vowing not to engage another incompetent builder, I bit the bullet and contacted Natcon constructions from an add in the local paper.

I made the phone call and Danny Daher from Natcon was at my front door within a few hours. He inspected the site, we discussed my plans and he gave me ideas and advice while staying focussed on what I wanted to achieve. The promptness, politeness and the professional attitude definitely left me feeling confident. The quotation was reasonable and within the ballpark of what I expected to pay, but it was the builder’s willingness and professionalism that won him the job at the end of the day.

The paperwork was completed and the construction of the building commenced. It was important to me that the new building matched the existing residence, original materials were sourced by the builder or matched as close as possible.

I was kept informed every day – who was turning up and what they were going to do. Any concerns that I may have had were addressed immediately, in most cases the builder had already attended to these issues.

Danny is not just a great builder but a great guy who I found to be very approachable and friendly. He built my extension to same high standards as if he were building it for himself. The building experience with Natcon has left a very good taste in my mouth and I would have no reservations in using their services or recommending them to anyone that is looking to build.

There are people on this forum who have too much to say .
One person in particular is a man who professes to be an expert in all matter about Danny Daher and Natcon .
The same person who claims to be a registered builder even though he is not registered as a builder,and charges people Gst when he is not registered to claim for Gst, and the same person who rips off his own mates.
A guttless ,spineless prick who hides behind some obscure website, never putting his balls on the line and declearing who he is and posting lies about Danny Daher ,his family and business.
The time of reckoning is upon you my freind ,expect a knock on your door any day soon. You cant hide behind the skirt of everybodys reality any more Buddy !

Are you serious Danny Daher and Peta Daher??! Do you really think your nonsensical attempt to defend yourself will work? Any intelligent person reading your response below will almost immediately see the flaws, inconsistencies and contradictions of your story. 'The difficulties commenced when ...Flinn..2013.....'. Then Scamporlino follows but with a date of 2012? There has NEVER been a VCAT settlement in Natcon's favour. Why on earth would you give someone $300k to pay other people when the contracts, invoices, bills are in the Name of Natcon Developments? Do you really think ANYONE will believe this?

Melbourne is not as big as you seem to think it is - it is NOT a city where you can hide. People talk when they have been robbed, cheated and lied to. Don't be fooled into thinking that you can get away with the deceitful and despicable behaviour you seem to think is normal and 'owing' to you.

Peta, we know you have cheated the Catholic School not paying school fees where you used to teach, taking the children quickly out one day. We know all the properties you own and have these only in the name of Peta Daher to make them untouchable to Creditors.

Why are you so stupid to think that creating a new website 'dannydaherbuilder.com.au' with all the 'OLD' references will go unnoticed by all those you have cheated and somehow manage to get you new work? You are an imbecile. We KNOW that the references are false, that you didn't so much as hammer in a nail at the McPherson St property in Moonee Ponds which is why you used it as a reference property to con more clients into signing contracts. If you had have touched the site it probably would have fallen down by now.



You have managed to steal client's, supplier's and tradie's money and for this you think you are clever. BUT, but even if you had half of the intelligence of all of us that will never give up and ENSURE you are reprimanded for your repeated cons why on earth would you create a new website using your own name? Again, you are an imbecile.

This is a world now where the internet makes it impossible to hide if you are an incompetent builder and more importantly a conman and a cheat. You will be reprimanded, you are being watched.

Danny Daher is now associated with another company which was registered in May 2014 called Bilby Constructions Pty Ltd.
He is currently working on a project in connection with that name - Bilby Constructions.

For those whom he still owes money and have been lied to that he is broke so he could not pay, seek him out! For those who has wide trades contacts/connections, red flag this to your fellow trades not take up any work for him.

The following two posts are false:

1. There is no one named Abraham in Scoresby, indeed no one named Catherine Abraham in Victoria!

2. The post by GIHAD is completely implausible - the final stage payment of all Daher's contracts consists of 5% of the overall payment.

3. Natcon has had 17 VCAT appearances, the sign of a good builder? I can't stop laughing.

You are joking aren't you Danny?? Sorry, Peta?? Oh, I meant GIHAD, or Abraham?

Recycling old and bogus references - changing the name from Natcon Developments to Natcon 10 even though that company was set up in late 2013. How did a company set up in 2013 complete work in 2010 or earlier? Oh yeah, it didnt.

The references on your new website are Bulls*@t - guess what, they are not hard to track down. They want nothign to do with you, they never approved being used as a refernce, and I bet some ended up in VCAT ..

Seems Abraham has conveniently forgot Danny's VCAT history and needs to be reminded:

A response to Danny Daher's - Managing Director of Natcon Developments Pty Ltd (now in administration owing $2m+) and the phoenix trading company he set up prior to the liquidation in order to continue his scam, Natcon Ten Pty, Natcon10.com.au, Natconten.com.au and his 'claim of innocence post'.

"The circumstances of Natcon developments demise can be summarized by an accumulation of client’s failing to make final payments for projects completed by ND combined with an overpayment of monies by ND to a trusted associate firm and the resultant legal costs eventually preventing ND from pursuing its rights and clearing its debts."

-- Natcon developments demise was a planned event by Danny Daher, designed to defraud trades and clients, the values of final payments owed to Natcon Developments is insignificant to the monies stolen from clients and trades.--

"This resulted in Natcon being unable to pay its debts as they became due and unable to settle them with any substantial benefit to the ongoing viability of Natcon."

--Natcon Developments was already in financial difficulty more than a year before it was put into administration, for that year the managing director (Danny Daher) traded whilst knowingly insolvent, which is a criminal offence and has been reported to ASIC by a number of parties. During this time his accounts were frozen by the ATO for non payment of Tax and he had to set up new bank accounts with different banking organisations in order to continue trading. Prior to the administration of Natcon Developments PTY LTD, Danny Daher set up another building company, called Natcon Ten PTY LTD, that is using the exact same business model, contacts, bank accounts, which is called Phoenix Trading and is illegal in Australia Corporate Law. The matter has been referred to by ASIC by a number of parties.--

"The difficulties commenced when a client (Flinn - VCAT Ref: D183/2013) moved into his newly renovated home and refused to make the final payment. The matter was contested in VCAT and was settled in ND’s favour although legal costs offset any benefit obtained in the win. Effectively this matter resulted in a loss of working capital of approximately $68,000."

--This is a complete lie, Natcon Developments VCAT history goes back many years before this, the difficulties began significantly before this here is the full history:

1998 Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) established in July 1998

1999 VCAT Ref D878/1999 Natcon Developments vs Client (Case Settled) 2004 VCAT Ref D124/2004 Cabinet Maker vs Natcon Developments (Case Withdrawn) 2007 VCAT Ref D77/2007 Brentwood homes vs Natcon Developments (Case Withdrawn)

2007 VCAT Ref D198/2007 Natcon Developments (Won) vs Trade (Lost) 2007 VCAT Ref D820/2007 Natcon Developments vs Respondent (Case Withdrawn) 2008 VCAT Ref C8073/2008 Natcon Developments (Lost) vs Client (Won) 2008 VCAT Ref C8950/2008 Client (Won) vs Natcon Developments (Lost) 2009 VCAT Ref D242/2009 Natcon Developments (Lost - Claim Dismissed) vs Respondent (Won) 2010 VCAT Ref C2181/2010 Natcon Developments (Lost) vs Respondent (Won)

2010 VCAT Ref C4135/2010 Trade (Won) vs Natcon Developments (Lost) 2012 VCAT Ref D592/2012 Applicant vs Natcon Developments (Natcon Settled) 2012 VCAT Ref D1181/2012 Clients (Won) vs Natcon Developments (Lost) 2013 VCAT Ref D183/2013 Natcon Developments vs Client (No final determination - Natcon Developments went into Administration) 2013 VCAT Ref D450/2013 Natcon Developments vs Client (No final determination - Natcon Developments went into Administration) 2013 VCAT Ref D491/2013 Client vs Natcon Developments (No final determination - Natcon Developments went into Administration) 2013 VCAT Ref D770/2013 Natcon Developments vs Trade (No final determination - Natcon Developments went into Administration)

2014 VCAT Ref ????/2014 Natcon Ten Pty Ltd vs client (New case)

To summarise, you've been a builder for 17 years and was only a builder for 2 years before you were first in VCAT, and this was only a year after VCAT was established. Since then you have been in 17 VCAT cases in 14 years. It is remarkable that in the last 14 years and over 17 cases you have won only one for the vastly sum of $6,390. Given that you claim that 3 of these VCAT cases cost you $250,000 and you only received $6,390 I can clearly see the excellent business model and would like to invest in your profitable company please.--

"Very quickly following this, a developer (Markos Developments & Ors - VCAT Ref: D450/2013) failed to pay for work completed by ND. The developer took possession of units constructed by ND without making the final payment. This matter dragged out over time and when the hearing became imminent and because of other simultaneous legal actions ND did not have the funds to litigate."

--VCAT is a tribunal, you do not need funds to litigate if you are truly the innocent party. The VCAT members will award in your favour, expert reports are insignificant cost to a company and Danny Daher never ‘extensively prepared for any of Natcon's VCAT hearings’, rather he constantly demanded extensions, caused delays and failed to prepare anything in an attempt to increase his opponents legal expenses, so that they would be financially unable to continue fighting so that Danny Daher may continue his con as long as possible.--

"The matter required an expert report and extensive preparation. There was a reasonable likelihood of a payout but unlikely to be the claimed amount without expert evidence. This matter resulted in a reduction in working capital for ND of approximately $112,000."

--Danny Daher's Natcon builds are so badly managed, delayed and defective that this client would have won against Natcon most likely on the weight of evidence they had alone. You state that the claim was unlikely without expert evidence, I wholeheartedly agree, expert evidence that Danny could not get as it simply did not exist in Natcon's favour. This build was the same as the rest of Natcon's builds, defective workmanship, not performed as per the plans and specifications contained in the contract and considerably delayed, often costing considerably more than the original contract price agreed.

Due to the delays created by Danny Daher, no doubt as evidenced in all of the other Danny Daher / Natcon Developments VCAT cases, the case was never finally determined as Natcon Developments was pushed into Administration by the earlier case below.--

"On another project (Rannah & Sebastian Scamporlino - VCAT Ref: D1181/2012) the owners took possession of their extensively renovated home without making the final payment."

--Complete lie, Danny Daher had numerous breaches of the contract and building regulations and countless structural and material defects, they took Natcon to VCAT and they were awarded full and significant costs against Danny Daher by VCAT. This is what pushed Natcon into administration and saved a significant number of Natcon's clients from having to personally take Natcon Developments / Danny Daher to VCAT for other criminally defective, delayed, disastrous and dangerous builds.--

"This matter ran for 5 days in VCAT and a further 2 day hearing was set down for final submissions. Because of lack of funds no one attended the final days and a substantial judgment was handed down against the company. There was a reasonable likelihood of a partial payout in this matter. It effectively meant a loss of working capital of approximately $70,000. The total amount of working capital lost due to these projects was $250,000 combined with a $120,000 debt that should not have been made"

--The matter ran for 2 years from 2012, not 5 days as the VCAT Case Ref D1181/2012 evidences. VCAT found against Danny Daher /Natcon because of his significant incompetence as a builder and his breaches of building regulations, displays of deceptive behaviour, and failure to follow plans and specifications. Danny Daher needs to be jailed for his actions, he is a con artist and a pathological liar. He preys on people deliberately with the sole intention of taking whatever he can from them and does this in a cold pre meditative manner. To our knowledge Danny Daher has repeatedly shown these exact behaviours to almost every client who has been unfortunate to sign on of his scam building contracts.--

"The major blow to the business was in AW Developments Vic - County Court Ref: CI-14-01074. Wayne Martin the director of AW Developments was paid $366,000 to make payments to creditors on ND’s behalf. AW failed to pay the creditors and has now claimed $300,000 against ND."

--Significant debt was owed by Natcon Developments to trades prior to 2013. This was evident in Flick On serving Natcon with a Statutory Demand in the Supreme Court in 2013 for failure to pay debts of around $60k, there is also the matter of the hundreds of thousands of dollars that were owed, at this time, by Natcon to other trades (as evidenced in the Worrells administration file).

Given the money Danny Daher owed to the trades back in 2013, it is very surprising you are suddenly claiming in August 2014 that Wayne Martin misappropriated the funds to repay outstanding debts 6 months to a year after the debts were already overdue. Why would Danny give the large single payment to Wayne to pay the trades directly himself? Why didn't Danny Daher just pay the trades himself, seeing as he had all of the money from the clients sat in his account? Oh, yeah right, lawyers, investment properties and your swimming pool, plus setting up Natcon Ten Pty Ltd so that you could carry on trading when you became the loser in VCAT. Danny's claims against Wayne are simply lies along with every other word and sentence in this feeble claim.--

"The liquidators are considering whether to challenge this but it is a complex and expensive forensic accounting exercise. This matter has a reasonable likelihood of a significant payout if it is run."

--No they are not, they are aware of Danny Daher's tit for tat, he said she said claims. It is NOT a matter for their administrative investigation into Natcon Developments.--

"Conclusion As the domino effect of matters weighed in on ND , advise was given to wind it up. The legal costs to pursue the rights of ND were overwhelming and, given the position of ND, had to be paid into trust in advance of the work being done."

--Danny had to pay money into trust as this is how the legal profession works, as all of Natcon's clients and most of the trades who’ve dealt with you now know. Danny had to continue paying into Trust as he owed his first lawyer a significant sum and the remaining lawyers he hired saw him as an obvious credit risk so demanded upfront payment for services. The money given to you by your clients was meant for building their homes, not for you to use to play lawyers.--

"The final balance would have been progressively reduced with the continuation of work and some would not even be due other that through the liquidation causing the debts to be called in."

--As of today the current balance of funds misappropriated and stolen from clients and trades by Danny Daher is in the region of $2m+ and increasing.

The new business Natcon Ten Pty Ltd is following the exact same path as Natcon Developments Pty Ltd by failing to pay trades, failing to follow building regulations, building defective homes, using legal action over resolving poor quality and defective concerns, failing to follow plans and specifications, claiming money prior to building stages being completed in breach of the building regulations.

These ongoing actions by Danny Daher will only increase the debt owed and litigation required, reducing the potential for progressively reducing your debts as claimed. It is clear you are not a competent builder. Competent builders do not have 100% of their clients ending contracts, claiming on warranty insurance for structural defects, signing settlement deeds just to get rid of the builder or having significantly structurally defective homes that are not even built to plans and specifications.--

"Natcon is a competent builder and the principal has been in construction for over 19 years without any previous claims."

--This is an outright lie, as you can see by the number of VCAT cases that have involved Natcon Developments. Natcon is a completely incompetent builder that has and is still causing pain and suffering to every single one of his clients, not just one or two, but all of us, every single client.--

"It has adjusted its business model to reduce the volume of work and reliance on site personnel other than himself controlling the works."

--Danny Daher is the single cause of the significant defects, all of the defects in all of the properties were caused by Danny Daher's negligence, either by his own hands, his poor or complete lack of site management, his failure to read plans and his complete incompetence as a builder. It is no wonder his new clients under Natcon Ten are so unhappy if this is his new business model, which end of the hammer was it again Danny?--

"The final balance would have been progressively reduced with the continuation of work and some would not even be due other that through the liquidation causing the debts to be called in."

--You state you have the ability to progressively reduce $2m+ of debt? Over what time frame? The rest of your life? Maybe $10 a week? Isn't this what you generally offered to the trades who took you to VCAT and Issue Statutory Declarations to the Supreme Court for non payment of Natcon debts?

All of the debt was overdue and had been demanded prior to the liquidation, if anything there is more debt you owe out there that hasn’t been captured by the liquidation process as it was unknown at the time of entering administration and because only a few people know you've actually gone into liquidation.

The costs for rectification of your cowboy builds is increasing significantly now the clients are going through the VMIA process. Most costs of rectification / completion are significantly higher than the original contract prices solely and entirely due to your sole complete incompetence as a builder.--

"Natcon is an competent builder and the principal has been in construction for over 19 years"

--Once again complete lies – You are utterly incompetent as a builder and as per the ASIC corporation register it is 17 yrs since the origination of Natcon Developments, not 19 as you claim here, nor as you claim on your website - "Danny is a Master Builder with over 30 years experience in quality building and construction work in Melbourne". You are a HIA builder, not a 'Master Builder' and you do not have 30 years experience in quality anything, except maybe con artistry and theft.--

"without any previous claims"

--More lies, see previous VCAT cases above.--

… By way of history, we first were introduced to Natcon when living in Eltham a few years ago, and we observed a number of projects that your team were involved with. When we started talking about the merits of “going up” in our place, it made sense to give your office a call, and we are so glad that we did. Our project is all but complete, and may I say that we are absolutely thrilled with the final outcome. We have to pinch ourselves that we are now living in this magnificent home, and that Natcon helped realise this dream. Every interaction we had with a Natcon employee or consultant was a positive one, and the project ran seamlessly from our first meeting with Danny , to Contract Stage and then to final / Practical Completion. Danny was an absolute pleasure to deal with. We just clicked with Danny from our very first meeting. He listened carefully to our requirements, offered suggestions and recommendations when asked, and came back with an outstanding design ideas that hit the mark straight up. He obviously has a wealth of experience, and this showed as he carefully steered us through the the process, and at all times made us feel comfortable and informed. We have received so many compliments on the build. As regards the construction management process, we were very fortunate to have had Danny to deal direct with for our project. Put simply, I can’t speak highly enough of Danny. He was professional, courteous, respectful and knowledgeable. He always managed to respond to my (many) emails, texts and phone calls in a timely manner, and never ever got flustered. Despite the number of projects he was managing, he always made us feel like we were his only client and that says a lot about his organisational skills. When we were told a certain trade or subcontractor was to be on site, they always arrived on time. Danny obviously has a strong work ethic. He was onsite almost daily overseeing the works, and ensuring those works were completed to exacting standards. It is clear he has a lot of pride in what he does, and this was evident from the way he conducted himself each and every day. We have received so many compliments from neighbours and people passing by, all of whom have congratulated us on the design, and most are in awe of just how quickly it all went up! We completed well ahead of schedule, and on budget. It really was an absolute privilege to work with your team, and I can only hope they enjoyed working on our home, as much as we enjoyed working with each of them. I wish Natcon all the Page 2
very best in the future, and would have no hesitation in using your company again for future building projects.

Cowboy Builder - Danny Daher builder, Natcon, Natcon 10, Natcon Ten, Natcon Developments

Danny Daher builder (Natcon 10, Natcon Development, Natcon Ten) - you are TOXIC and an oxygen hijacker. You pocketed all the payments you received from clients without delivering the goods and services, and left houses full of defects and complete mess (Daher – do you know there is this large open-topped waste container designed to hold loads of construction and demolition waste or other waste and litter types known as SKIP BINS????).

You are running around telling lies to tradies and suppliers that your clients have not paid the invoices – the standard excuse you make for not paying your suppliers and trades. Where are all the monies you have taken from your clients??? Which bank accounts (here or overseas?) have you stashed the money you “stole” from your clients while not paying your trades/suppliers? You are a scum, a liar and a thief!

You call yourself a “professional builder” in your pathetic website – what is COLOSSAL joke! You should have called yourself a “professional cowboy builder” – that is exactly what your qualification is. By the way, the word “quality” does not even exist in your work, Daher. Even a kid can build a house using LEGO blocks better than you can ever achieve as a builder.

Where did you get your builder qualifications? Because damn, that “school” you went to did an absolute SH^T job in educating you. You are totally incompetent and hopeless in your job - it is a total joke and disgrace to your fellow builders. You can’t use a spirit level, you can’t use a hammer, you can’t read plans, you can’t read product manuals, you can’t do simple maths, you can’t use the humble tape measure (pull the yellow bit out – it has numbers on it – I’m sure they are important), you don’t understand basic 101 building principle - door frames need lintels!!!! I can go on and on and on…....

Karma is a BEE-YATCH Daher. Karma is hunting you and all your minions, puppets and associates in your Natcon 10, Natcon Ten, Natcon Development scam until every single one of you goes down!! May 2015 be the year that brings you and your minions down - in full force. Especially you Daher, especially you!!!

Hey Daher - what happened to your website? You didnt pay your internet service provider? That is your usual trait isn't it - like you have not paid your trades/suppliers. Did you not even notice that your website is now suspended. Are you doing your disappearing act again? Where did you pocket the sale of your house trailer earlier this year? In your misses' pocket again?

I hear that someone with the initials DD recently sold a flatbed horse trailer - for $7,500. any disgruntled creditors get out to Balnarring ASAP and claim some cash. This may be the last cash he gets for a while, as I understand there is a posse of lawyers about to circle him in a pincer move!
