Don’t get caught with a Cowboy! Check them out on NoCowboys first reads the tag line of “No Cowboys” Business fidelity website.
Yet when one attempts to warn “No Cowboys” about NZ’s now most infamous “fraud cowboy” in Grant King, they play all officious, doey-eyed and innocent.
See the exchange below, and then join me in shaking one’s head in abject disbelief at how casual some online Consumer sites actually are:
Dear No Cowboys,
Thanks for your email.
Are you out of your freaking mind?
I’ve just sent you copious amounts of information about the risk Grant King and his company poses to consumers, including confirming that I am a previous “customer” (read “fraud victim”) of Grant King, and you’re asking for a receipt?
Oh my goodness, the media are just going to just love this………….I can just see the headline: “No Cowboys hosts Cowboys, despite warning of Cowboys”.
Keep an eye on the papers.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your email.

It is important to understand that NoCowboys is a review website for feedback about “businesses” within the Trades & Services and not a review website for “consumers”.
We hope this clears up any confusion over what NoCowboys is all about and how the rating system works.

Hi there,
This company, and the person running it, is a massive risk to NZ Consumers.
Grant King also runs Tern Anchor, which is also featured on your site.
I attach a copy of the Sunday Star Times article related to this rating.
Please go to www.grantnormanking.com for more information.
The Office of the Official Assignee have just completed a public examination of Grant King, and have applied to the High Court to make Grant King “indefinitely bankrupt” such is the risk Grant King poses to NZ Consumers:
Grant King is also facing further charges in Court for managing businesses whilst an undischarged bankrupt, an offence he has already been convicted of in his current term of his third bankruptcy.
The entire media library to date, and Grant Kings longitudinal criminal history, may be found at the next three links
