Apologies for the thread bump.
By now, most of you who have had dealings with Nocturnal Audio are likely not to have heard any recent news about the company. This is only natural, because Nocturnal Audio (or at least the old iteration of it) has ceased to exist along with the disappearing act of Zack Zhou (
@ReNnxz)
Zack Zhou has been active on head-fi and the local Singaporean forums up to the end of September 2014. He manufactured cables and sold them through the Nocturnal Audio brand conceived in partnership with the local audio distributor Treoo, but also directly with fellow local forumers through private messages and direct phone contact. Towards the end of 2014, Zack began to run into all sorts of troubles with the orders that had been placed for cables. Promised delivery dates were not met, and attempts to contact him turned to naught. Most commonly, Zack would not reply text messages for a prolonged period of time, before coming up with explanations and excuses to request for an extension to the deadline of the policy. Personally, I am still owed $450 SGD by Zack, and $300 of this was actually an amount that I sent over to his bank account after he played on my sentiments (which on hindsight was extremely naive) and begged me to lend him $300 to pay off outstanding amounts he owed to other customers due to unfulfilled orders. Following this, he proceeded to lie and cheat his way to delaying the return of the sum which he owes me, till the time of this message where he has completely broken off contact and has yet to return anything. His modus operandi is quite complex, and if anyone whom wishes to have more information about this, they can drop me a PM and I will be obliged to share.
Fast forward to today, myself and a number of other local Singaporean Head-fiers and forumers have pooled together a substantial amount of information pertaining to the whereabouts of Zack Zhou. We have his personal home address, cell phone number, bank account number, an entire database of text message exchanges which document how he lied at every turn and failed to deliver on his backlog of orders while quite astonishingly continuing to take orders from new customers.
The purpose of this thread bump is to encourage anyone else who has had prior interactions with Zack Zhou (ReNnxz) to come forward with any information you might have. PM chat logs, transaction details, or any other sort of information would be useful to us. With the collated information, we will then press a police report against him, and likely also proceed to take further legal action against him.
We do acknowledge that people whom have direct contact with him rather than through going with Treoo's service (they are a superb company which is equally a victim of Zack Zhou's games as we are) are mostly local Singaporeans who contact him through the local vrzone forums, but before we issue out this message on there, we thought it'd be good to maximize all possible information sources for the most complete information.
Thank you for reading this.
