Hello everyone,

I built this Lichtenknecker telescope with Astrobot I mount in the 90s. In 2013 I sold it to APM. Does anyone happen to know who the current owner is?

best regards
Bernd

I bought an AP 900GTO from Andrea Sisk in March 2023 for USD 4,320
and paid immidiatly. The money has demonstrably reached her.
To date, Andrea have not delivered the mount to me.
She cheat me. That is a criminal act.

Dear Astro Community
If anyone knows where the photos were taken, please contact me:

it would have to be in Framingham, MA, Riverpath Dr. 110 (see photo of the house)
I am very grateful for every hint.
I didn't think it was possible to be so viciously betrayed in this wonderful science hobby.
Please take my case as a warning so it doesn't happen to others - thank you

Hello Greg,

I became aware of the scam in mid-April because
I didn't get an answer from Andrea Sisk. The mount has not been delivered to date.
At the end of April I did everything imaginable:
Support Astromart => no reaction
Bank of America => no response
Framingham Police => no response
Police Germany => Report filed
Attorney General Germany => Report filed

The whole topic ran under the username "Andreas Hengst"
He had given 2 locations (see photo attached)
a) in Vreden, Germany
b) in Framingham, MA

a fraudster may have taken over his name/account, to carry out this criminal act.

Since last week Andreas Hengst  has changed the location to just Vreden, DE

The scammer insisted on banking transfer. PayPal was rejected because it allegedly had to pay income tax in the USA. I believed that and transferred USD 4,320 to the BoA

My concern now is to find out who took the photos in this apartment at 110 Riverpath, Framingham, Dr. has made. That must have been the cheating person.

Unfortunately I can't do much here from Germany and am dependent on friends in the USA. Thank you very much. I am a 72 year old retiree and the scam is hitting me very hard.

best regards
Bernd

Greg and Lou

on July 24, 2023, Andreas Hengst had registered 2 locations on Astromart, once in Vreden DE and once in Framingham MA.

My report to Astromart was on 09. May 2023

Yesterday evening I was able to find out that Andreas Hengst is still a member. Please check your comments highlighted in red.
