6000 euros (4200)was stolen from my father, Mr Pittel, in 2004 by Richard Weinberg's brother Adrian, who was a sales representative for a property development company in Marbella, Spain. Adrian's mother, Shirley Weinberg, took dad out there on the pretence of a vacation to recover from a triple heart bypass. They both persuaded him to part with the money as a deposit on a holiday apartment while he was in a vulnerable state, putting immense pressure on him even though he said he wasn't interested. It was subject to the approval of his Financial Advisor (who subsequently advised against it strongly)and supposed to be a refundable transaction if my father changed his mind within 10 days. However, the money was never forthcoming and it is now known that it was shared among Adrian and his mother Shirley and his brother Richard - all scheming thieves.
Despite obtaining court judgment against Adrian who later returned to the UK, we failed to recover the money because both Richard & Shirley concealed his whereabouts and all his details, eg phone no, work location, home address etc.
Eventually we secured court judgment against Shirley for her part in the theft, at which point Richard stepped in and employed a lawyer. We agreed amicably to withdraw judgment against her ON THE BASIS that he helped us to recover the money from Adrian and contributed his share. The amount we insisted upon was the amount awarded to us by the court, which included interest and court fees and amounted to over 6000.
Richard PROMISED that the money would be paid to us in regular instalments which would be forthcoming within a couple of weeks. Needless to say, this was several months ago and we have once again not received the money owed to us by the Weinberg family. All subsequent phone calls and pleasto Richard have been heartlessly ignored and he has even hung on me, even though he knows that I, Mr Pittel's daughter, desperately need the money for health reasons.
Richard Weinberg is a wealthy man. He owns Tavernier, an elitediamond jewellery store, in London's west end. He lives in a big house and both his children attended private schools. 6000 is nothing to him, yet he refuses to part with the money that could potentially enable me to walk again. He is a heartlessthief and fraud just like his brother and his mother. I urge you NOT to shop at Tavernier, nor to have dealings with the Weinberg family.

Richard Weinberg is a liar and a bully

I am a friend of Debbie's and I know for a fact that Richard Weinberg bullied and blackmailed her into posting this apology and retracting the report. The liar DID promise a year ago to ensure that instalments were repaid to Mr Pittel starting within a couple of weeks and regularly thereafter if they withdrew the RIGHTFUL judgment they had against his mother Shirley Weinberg for her part in it. She enticed Debbie's father, who had recently had a triple heart bypass operation, into going to Marbella with her and promised Debbie faithfully that she would look after him, but heartlessly stood by and let her son Adrian bludgeon him into parting with the money - and took her share of it with no qualms. The Weinberg family are all heartless con artists who only care about themselves. Not a penny has ever been forthcoming from Shirley or as a result of Richard's "promise" and he has threatened Debbie with a lawsuit for posting this truthful report about him, so she posted the apology to prevent this and further stress which can exacerbate her symptoms which Richard WELL knows. He clearly has the money for lawyer's fees and is happy to spend out on these, but won't contribute a penny towards the debt. I believe that he is now investing in another business and my guess is that he is anxious that the investors don't see the truth about him - well here it is. Btw, Debbie doesn't know that I am posting this rebuttal and I have changed my name and location to protect her from any comeback - she can't be forced to make me retract it cos she doesn't know who I am.

RETRACTION OF REPORT AND FULL APOLOGY TO RICHARD WEINBERG & TAVERNIER

I would like to retract this report and post a full apology to Richard Weinberg & Tavernier. It is his brother Adrian Weinberg who is the crook, not Richard - his only association with the matter was - and still is - to attempt to recover the money from Adrian for us. I posted this report out of desperation and frustration because his attempts have not yielded anything, and because I felt that it was a family responsibility to return the money. However, this is not fair or right. It is not Richard who stole the money, he is not the liar or the thief - his involvement was a gesture of pure goodwill, especially as the money is so desperately required for my mobility problem. I hope this clarifies the situation and restores Richard's reputation.
