I think you are doing a great job of that all on your own with no help from me.

Sunrise QUOTE from 2010 see viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2367870&view=previous
This is a bit of a giggle Carafino is bust you only have to look http://www.carafinouk.com/indexcara.html
and http://carafino-conman.com/
to see why.
Mr Carabello should not be trusted to do anything other than take your money under false presence and give nothing but heartache and a smaller bank account.
The valuation is based on what he owes customers and the company is not in distress because Mr Carabello does not give a shit who he rips off

The aren't laughing at a lion. They are laughing at a buffoon but keeping a safe distance because of the threats Carafino Issues not only to their suppliers and employees but to customers as well..
Hi Windrider

According to carifino he has refunded money to unhappy customers earlier this week (20-5-2014).
Has your refund turned up in your bank account yet?

Over the last few weeks, there have been some customers who have jumped on this wagon of Carafino scamming customers. Those customers who written to me these insults. I have cancelled their orders and returned their funds. There have been only a few as many have written and apologized for using the wrong words due to their frustrations in delay. I accept your apologies and appreciate the men you are for acknowledging your error. I do it often myself.

Foils will be shipping out end of this month 100% confirmed.

wind-rider' this email is very negative about you. after all your rant, and now reading this, it appears to me you have a personality flaw. I would not deal with you either. you've been asked this direct question before but I have not read your answer. Did you get your money back?

Believe what you want but this is the latest in a series of threatening e mails/phone calls I have received from Carafino.

The money is thye least of my concearns. With the help of my French friends I have a meeting at 12.30 tomorrow with Interpol. These threats are being taken as credible and viable and they are being added to the statements I have below from suppliers he has also threatened.

I just got an email from on elf the Australian guys- I think about 8 of them ordered boards foils.
They were due to take delivery in March.
Then after many excuses and hostile emails from Carafino- including the MH370 saga, Dengue fever etc- in May they finally got the boards- but no foils.
My guess is this is a breach of contract, where Carafino is at fault.
Apparently he's offered to pick the boards up and will refund the money. Carafino's reason for this was he's tired of dealing with people that don't trust him and people who defame the Carafino family name!
Gez, what a joke- how can anyone trust this guy!
Do you really think he's going to pick up their boards and refund their money- not a chance. I've also heard the boards are a really poor quality- built to last a week....

Haha- so glad I didn't invest!
I told you he is a crook ! What a scam!
The name carafino isn't worth shit!
I heard the Aussie boys are sending some Maoris around to pay carafino a friendly visit.
Haha, can't wait to hear about that one.
