This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

In the last two months had a nightmare experience with a con man, Grant Reilly, who poses as investigator, but is not registered with PSIRA. Beware, his modus operandi is as follows - he will take a large payment up front, promising heaven and earth. Once he has been pd, the excuses begin - if you put pressure on him he becomes aggressive, elusive and unavailable - if your investigation is of a delicate nature, he will approach the party being investigated with allegations so horrendous - drawing on the info you have given him - that you will have to brief your attorney to clear the mess. He has a criminal record and does not hesitate to resort to intimidation and extortion - for which he is currently under investigation. If anyone has any other info of the shady dealings of Mr Reilly, pls email me as a matter of urgency with as much detail as possible.

Been Scammed as well . Same modus operandi, promises the earth, delivers nothing but lies then asks for more money . when you call him out he threatens you with criminal charges and threatens self and family as well . He is now into cyber crime as well.

Yep : Grant Reilly and his partner Penny . Have now resorted to legal action as well as the assistance of an advocate from the Council For Debt Collectors

Sankie we spent more on collecting your bad debt as we thought we could get it back once you were paid. You however also asked us to put the people into intensive care which we refused and now you are threatening us and trying to extort money from us by putting us on social media. A few things you people have in common that falsely slate people on social media are that you have failed at life and the only place you have a little voice is hiding behind a computer, you are old, single, angry and just failures. Anyhow Sankie apparently you have done this to a few debt collectors and we are all getting together to open a case against you. You pose as a Christian but you use the most horrendous language when Grant phones you. We never knew such language existed. You hide behind the name of the Lord and you are an evil monster. You should read Divine revelation of Hell to see what happens to people like you. Have a great day

Christine Tapsell. You requested that we commit illegal acts such as breaking into Geoff little house and stealing his car. You have a restraining order against you and your husband from Henry and all the neighbours have affidavits against you for threatening their children and their animals. You are a delusional old fool. We tried to collect your money and did everything within the realms of the law. We will not participate in anything illegal as requested by yourself. You are going to land in very serious trouble the way you conduct yourself. Your husband is ill cause you are a bully and a menace of society. You almost had us put in jail because you failed to advise us that Henry has a restraining order against you and your husband. Now go meddle elsewhere. You are a nuisance and a fool

Christine Tapsell. You trolling cyber bully. In fact you are a bully period. It must be that weight you carry. You paid us to collect a debt. We travelled and incurred costs based on a commission afterwards. The guy has nothing so you ask us to steal his stuff and take his car. We not in the theft business. Perhaps your specialty. Secondly the whole neighbourhood has affidavits against you and your husband cause you threaten to harm their children and their animals. You are a narcissistic psychopath. I read it on the internet it must be true. Old fool. You create your own problems and blame others. You are a complete fool who meddles and causes trouble for everyone. Narcissists

We have had exactly the same treatment from Grant O Reilly who promised to clear a debt owing to us, after payment was made. He then asked for more money, and we refused, and he started intimidating us, and was totally offensive after we put him on the spot. Emails on file. Using our problems against us seems to be his modus operandi. Frightening individual. His wife/partner also involved. They both need to be stopped, but nobody seems able to win against this man.

Firstly Gina. You are a prostitute who wanted your partner in Elysium men's pleasure palace arrested so you could get your hands on her money.
Ron Mackie, you are operating huge scams and are all over the internet. Your property scams will catch up with you
Tienie Lindeque uncollectable debt as he made an investment believing you would get 20% return a month. Clearly you believe in the tooth fairy.
Wally I don't know who you are.
We try our best for all our clients. Most of them have made bad choices. We try help them fix it and sometimes not successful. It's a gamble they take.
Ron you haven't paid us a cent but scammed a few of our clients. You will pay one way or another. Have a super day

This particular individual Grant OReilly is threatening me and I will now be forced to go to the police along with hiring lawyers here in SA my matter is in the UK and the USA it has nothing to do with anything in SA it is a company matter and is being handled by my USA lawyers. This criminal OReilly has decided to come after me personally and my ex wife. He has promised his client heaven and earth as is his normal operating modus operandi.He has already started to get abusive and threatening in several emails and has also been hassling my ex wife.
Now that I find out he is an ex criminal it all starts to make sense why he is not licensed to operate as a PI.----- he has promised to make my life a living hell and make it his life mission to get me. This criminal needs to be stopped and reigned in from terrorising people.
