I am a pensioner of 71 years of age I got a workman to fit a kitchen for me in my apartment in Torrevieja when I was back home in the UK. His name is Jacek Jan Borkowski, I paid him £2500 and he did very little of the work and didn't finish it and never came back.He has also went away with my keys,and I have had to change the locks. If you ever come across this conman be aware. This is the photo of Jacek Jan Borkowski the polish conman.

I would never pay that amount of money up front to anybody, especially if I wasn't there......

Hi, so sorry to hear your sad news. A similar thing happened to us in El Campello a few years ago by a German couple. We have been super careful since. They were recommended, but strange thing is we haven't seen them since.
