Slayercon postponed or cancelled?
The upcoming Slayercon in Adelaide, Australia has been postponed according to SGP, but this message by a ticket holder tells a different story. |
Ticket holder mail
The event has been 'postponed' and the organiser has run off with thousands and thousands of dollors of fans money. He hasnt been heard from in a month, even by people who were closely associated with the organisation of the convention, and ticketholders havent been contacted. The only way to know its been 'postponed' is to go to the actual website.
Vendors who were booked for the convention have been contacted and they were told it was cancelled, not postponed so we can only assume that the 'postponement' was a ruse to get people to give him a bit longer before they started kicking up a stink.
I'm a ticketholder, and I'm in contact with many others. We have filed a letter of demand and are in the process of getting all ticketholders to file a complaint with the Department of Fair Trading. The next step is making a police report regarding Fraud charges.

Second money fraud
This is now the second convention during the last few months where the organiser has run off with the money, the first one was the Hush Convention. It is now rumoured that the organiser of the Slayer Con has been spotted getting on a plane to USA after the announcement of the "postponing".
