Maybe he is providing his services as a freelance PH to whoever has hunting days to offer, which is much safer than recommending hunts. | |||

That is something we both agree on. | |||

The reaction here or at Africanhunting.com would be a bit tepid at best. I cannot imagine he is that crass... but he has shown his colors here, so I would not be suprised... | |||

He also as an established group of satisfied hunters who return and hunt with him. Perhaps he does not need AR advertising and the obvious downside that offers. Buzz no longer posts or advertises here and has no issue booking hunts. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

Im sure that’s it…oh wait probably not! I don’t think Buzz has left anyone high and dry for 80k in day rates. If that was the case I’m sure the reaction on here would be the same. | |||

Have you been in contact with anyone at the embassy or FBI? | |||

Jim, Apples & Oranges. Buzz & Co. have their own area(s). They also have a robust international marketing strategy. Andrew is pretty much word of mouth. In fact, remember you calling me and asking for my thoughts about hunting with him prior your Lion? I'm past placing blame here. I hunted with Andrew, had a good time, shot our stuff. That's all. I personally think the hunting community needs to vet people (all People) we hunt with. Protecting friends and playing favorites shouldn't ever change the facts. How would you and Joyce feel about losing 80K? Again, I'm not assigning blame, just asking you an honest question. Formerly "Nganga" | |||

I have been in contact with the embassy but not the FBI. I was hopeful that the embassy would be of more assistance. | |||

. Why would an Embassy get involved ? It's a private contractual matter that has gone south, not diplomatic plus it involves DG hunting! Imagine that they would not touch it with the proverbial barge poe! Have you tried a local Zam lawyer to press your claim? Me, if I was 80 down I would put 10 more into it to involve a local lawyer and see what milage is in it! Just saying .... . "Up the ladders and down the snakes!" | |||

The FBI likes investigating wire fraud. It's an easy meal. And 80 thousand might be enough to get their interest. After investigating, I wonder if they would consider Baldry an innocent dupe or a willing accomplice. | |||

I bet the emails and text messages going back and forth between Andrew and Ibi would be enlightening to say the least . . . and probably highly incriminating. That said, I am sure Andrew and Ibi have made a concerted effort to purge those emails . . . if the efforts put into modifying posts here to reflect a changing story is any indication. Mike | |||

I agree completely with you Steve. I vetted all our hunts to the best of my ability. Calling you over ten years ago is a good example. You had and have far more experience than me. I’m not defending Andrew nor disparaging Buzz. I’ve hunted with both. Both experiences were worth the price of admission. If either had screwed me out of 80K I would likely mention it here in order to give others pause to think but I would never think that post or thread would get me even part of my money back. Who has that money now? That’s the person that needs to be pursued and the suggestions by Fulvio make sense. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

Why would an Embassy get involved? Simply because it is a part of its roles: "The functions of a diplomatic mission consist, inter alia, in representing the sending State in the receiving State; protecting in the receiving State the interests of the sending State and of its nationals, within the limits permitted by international law". | |||

I will guarentee you they have been purged. Fuxk games editing if posts to cover things up here are all the proof we need to know it happened. But you can never truly erase them. A good enough forensic person can recover them. DRSS Kreighoff 470 NE Valmet 412 30/06 & 9.3x74R | |||

few have your international experience and not only for hunting. losing 80k despite not being Jim and Joyce will be bad for us as well but still think Andrew did not received the money. i helped my share of hunters when they came to bangui and the outfitters/phs did not show up and people were stuck in a country they did not speak french let alone sango ... in those days no internet and trying to get help from any embassy will have been a dream. now trying to blame Andrew (which you did not do) for the money he did not even received is really problematic but it is easier to blame the one that is here that the one not here. | |||

I will donate one of the two “Lion” prints I have from Andrew’s donations to the Stu Taylor recovery for auction. That was a shitshow as well. Hell, maybe both. It may not get Cme whole, but it might get him a steak dinner. Saeed, I hope this is allowed. I meant to be DSC Member...bad typing skills. Marcus Cady DRSS | |||

I have monitored this discussion with mixed interest. Saeed: the information I gained on your site was invaluable before I booked the first of my first of four safaris. That said, EVERYONE who frequents this site needs to understand that all of the "conventions" (DSC, SCI, et al) will not do JACK SHIT FOR YOU IF YOU GET SCREWED ON A HUNT YOU BOOK AT THEIR CONVENTIONS.

Almost 2 more weeks have passed with no additional signs of recompense from ibi the thieving jackal. Anyone notice that Andy ballsack has stopped posting in this thread? I’m guessing he found it tiring having to go back and re-edit all those posts to ensure his stories stay straight. Is ibi the thieving swine still Making threats against the OP???

Very sad he is concentrating his efforts on Andrew. Why doesn't he chase the real crook who took the money and ran?? As I mentioned before, all this does is divert attention from the real culprit in this case, Ibi! | |||

Saeed. You will notice my post above it concentrates on ibi the thieving rat. I merely commented that ole ballsack seems to have quit posting on this and it was my opinion that it was that he was tiring of keeping his story straight and having to edit all these pages of posts to do so. Ibi is the one who committed the crime but I still believe Old Andy bears some responsibility in this. How much I don’t know but he helped put it all together. The honorable thing to do would be to help u ravel all of this. DRSS Kreighoff 470 NE Valmet 412 30/06 & 9.3x74R | |||

Andrew bears as much responsibility as anyone of us who recommends someone and that turns out to be wrong. Nothing more. He did not get a penny of the stolen money. And you bringing his name into it in every post still deflects the ultimate responsibility of Ibi. | |||

Would it be possible to know what protocol was adopted in presenting this case to the Zambian authorities? | |||

. . . in a word, bullshit. He marketed and sold the hunt, he interfaced between Corey and Ibi, he secured the quota from Ibi, he intended to be the PH on the hunt, etc. Your disingenuous efforts to paint Baldry as some innocent bystander only serve to make him look worse in the eyes of most.

Prove to us where Andrew is guilty of taking any money! Applying lawyers rules made in America to someone in Africa?? Good luck! Why don’t you take up the clients case? How much would you charge him? I bet he wouldn’t have much left! | |||

Correct and that is how it works. All my hunts have seen the Hunter introduced to the Outfitter who provides the contract and deposit details of which I have little influence. As I do not add commissions or finders fees, all financial agreements are between the Hunter and Operator. Nor do I get involved in Charter bookings, dip & pack etc. Last year was a disaster and Cme and I both got fucked I sincerely hope Cme is making headway as my efforts were in vain.
