Whilst looking at the google results for our website, we came across Mr.Cloud a "company" run by Craig Hesmondhalgh. I was amazed to find out he had duplicated our entire website and populated it with his own illegal, unlicensed branded t-shirts. Craig (who also claims to be a Graphic Design Specialist) had forgotten to remove the word iggloo from all the text copy, hence the reason we found him on google. My company did not pursue legal action at the time (time and cost issues), but it's bugged me that he still trades online, using our designs to front his crappy t-shirt prints. This is a difficult area to police, the Government hasn't got it's act together and setup a dedicated online consumer fraud site, but with the rise of social networking tools consumers can easily hold guys like Craig accountable and spread the word until he takes his site down. This guy has seriously upset and ripped off lots and lots of people now, google search is full of people posting complaints about Craig. He seems to spend his time demanding people identify themselves as customers of his before he'll respond to you. Craig - you have no idea at all of what it is to run a business and take money off people. You're attitude is appalling. I'd completely forgotten about this bloke until today, but I'm even more keen to stop this guy from trading after seeing all the chatter around Mr.Cloud.

When I had not received it a month later, I sent Craig, the owner, an email, to which he responded saying that he had sent it but that there was a UK postal strike. I gave it a few more weeks, and then requested that he send me another shirt since i hadn't received it. He did not reply, nor has he replied to any emails since. By then, it was too late for me to get my money back through PayPal. I foolishly gave this liar the benefit of the doubt. He is a thief and a scammer. A really bad human being. DO NOT GIVE HIM YOUR BUSINESS. I bought a Dalek t-shirt (in case you’re reading this, Craig, I’m tlaking about order #2670) on Sept. 15, 2007.

This company says on their site that ‘t-shirts are the only Mii shirts to be approved by Nintendo Europe. They are used by Nintendo U.K. to promote the Mii service and are official Nintendo promotional products.’ which can make you think that they are selling nintendo approved t-shirts in general. The Mii t-shirts are not available for ordering but the other nintendo t-shirts are. My question is: are these official t-shirts? And are you officially dealing with this company?
