Would you be able to help me with the web I am entangled in?
Imagine a cash loss of $34,036.38 USD, which is what Baring has of my money. (equaling 20,607.16 Br. Pnds.)
In an earlier e-mail, I in error understated the actual amount that Baring stole from me and used the figure $33,800 USD
instead of using this figure: $34,036.38 USD.
1. He is still holding (that is, if he t hocked it!) my early 1950s Cartier which Baring claims was from his own watch
collection. I paid $6,608 USD (4,000 Br. Pnds.) for it on
27/11/12.
2. On 15/03/13, I asked Baring if I could trade my 1946 platinum rare!!) watch for two of his watches:
an 18K pink gold 1907 A. Lange & Sohne 51 mm pocket watch and a 1947 steel Omega with a 36 mm cream dial.
Baring asked to see my Patek via Skype. He then asked me to ship my watch to him to closely examine it. A week later,
Baring tells me (without showing me my watch) that the domed lense of my watch was cracked as a result of shipping it to him.
Due to my stupidity thiking I could trust Baring, he did not show me my damanged watch on Skype. Baring then told me that he
would ship my Patek to the Patek which took place on 15/07/13. My Patek cost me $19,883.38
USD (12,038.86 Br. Pnds.)
3. In early May 2013, Baring who knew that I have been jobless for over 4 years & 8 months told me that he was launching the
2nd Vintage Watch Investment Fund in the world and this far,he enrolled 6 of his customers in his Fund and I would be the
7th to wire him money to deposit into his Fund. Baring e-mailed me his on 07 March 2013, making me the
Lender and Baring the Borrower. Baring told that because he considered me a friend, he would give me a 25%
return on each and every watch he sells during a Sales Cycle and that his other 6 customers would only receive a 10% return on each of
s watch sales. I wired baring $7,545 USD (4,568.30 Br.Pnds.)
Once Baring had my money wired to him, he then told me that my deposit will be put into a bank in The Cayman Islands for tax
s close friend named Willy who is the s largest bank will serve
as Fund Manager and Baring will serve as the Advertising & Solicitation Director of this Fund. I was supposed to receive total monthly 25%
returns ”
Well! 11/04/13 went by, 11/05/13 passed by, 11/06/13 flew by, 11/07/13 passed, 11/08/13 went, 11/09/13 went, 11/10/13 went -
and not one bloody penny did I receive from Fraudster Baring. Baring is clever, cunning, malevolent, obdurate, sadistic, narcisistic,
unscrupulous, self-aggrandizing, callous, and I am sorry to say this but evil and does not possess a soul, a heart, and a
conscience. Cray, If you would like to contact me, my e-mail is: (((REDACTED)))@ q.com and my cell phone # (U.S.) is 602-xxx-xxxx.
In closing, Cray, Baring is 50% of the reason why I am on the virtual cusp of homelessness. I was sitting on top of the world financially,
that is, before Baring friended me and then stuck in evil claws in me -prior to early June 2012.

I got done by Stephen Baring now calling himself Stephen Mark Hugh Jones a thief liar arrogant pretentious fraudster who stole from me causing me stressful financial loss. Stephen Baring sells art posters & prints at high prices, he took my paintings to sell and sold them, then told me I have to wait till he has some money as thats normal business, saying he will pay me when he can but never has. He told me to stop calling him or he will take it as harassment and call the police. Stephen Mark Hugh Jones, a slimy worm, won't answer his phone 02036334341, I’m confined at home and can't get out to visit him at his living address 38 Calderon Road Leyton London E11 4EU or his business address Tempus Arts Ltd, 50 Liverpool Street London EC2M 7PY. Can anyone help me, citizen advice say its not straight forward as he operates under different names, company names and different addresses. He was Tempus Online, Tempus Gallery and now Tempus Arts Ltd.

I hope to be able to contribute to this sorry tale more meaningfully in due course, however, for the present I wanted to point out that at least one of the characer testimonials for Stephen Baring (nee Jones), purporting to be written by his brother David Jones, almost certainly does not actually come from David, but is likely by someone else altogether, and you are therefore well advised to treat it and other defences of Stephen with some scepticism. I know Stephen very well, and have met all of his family, including his brother. The Jones family, individually and as a unit, are very well educated and highly cultured. As such, they cultivate and maintain certain standards, not least in their speech, whereas the writer of the testimony clearly cannot claim to have any great ease with English, much less the condidence and facility I know from personal experience that each and any of the Jones family would wield. I can therefore say with a good deal of confidence that David is not the author of the testimony as is claimed: amongst other things, it is full of grammatical and spelling errors and an absurd grandiosity, which even were he to be blind drunk, David would scarcely allow himself to make. I'll even go so far as to say that I feel sure that neither is the mystery writer Stephen himself, writing under nom de plume and attempting to buttress his character from the safety of a different IP address, since, of all the Jones family, he is the one with the strongest feeling for literature, and whilst arguably he may indeed be morally dissolute, I know that he would rather accept an accusation of fraud than to have to force himself to write such obvious and thumping great illiteracies. No, the writer is most likely an African friend of Stephen's who has been asked to spend a few minutes helping Stephen out of one his too-frequent tight spots.

Dear Sir.
Sorry to see you have an invested interest/loss!
Glad to have stumbled upon this forum, I find the matter somewhat intriguing, how is it this man continues operating businesses in the UK?
Is it correct he has run off with nearly half million GBP with county court judgements verifying part of?
Have to say, somewhat baffled by the intense detailed information on this page! Has Mr. David Jones been duped, or is he an accomplice? Perhaps someone can explain what is going on? Sounds much slander, though interesting to say the least!
Good luck to you there, look forward to reading more!

Let it be widely known that the person who has written, and continues to write, he is the ''good angel'' and "his businesses are reputable" and ''of sound moral character'' is, of course, Stephen Mark Hugh Baring. It is on record by statements made by creditors, web designers, fellow watchsellers who know all about the truly evil and unremourseful Baring. Re-read the last rebuttal and you will see that Baring refers to me as an idiot. In an e-mail from a while back, Stephen posed the question to me "What contributions have you ever made to others?" I enumerated my contributions - my extensive volunteer work, etc. When I asked Baring to name something he has ever done to help others or to the world," He flat out ignored my question. Negative Baring complaints began flowing onto the internet as far back as 2012. He has scammed and committed gross fraud on foreigners such as myself, but also made his moves to Sweden, Russia, and Italy. Now, let me discuss how Baring has disrespectfully and evily defamed me as a person. O k, I was born with a birth defect. I was born without a left eye. baring, on numerous occasions, has labeled me a "cyclops - a pathetic one, a "loser," an ugly attention-seeker. What Baring does is when he is fully cognizant of a person's weak points, he takes full advantage of them, to verbally stab you with his evil. Baring is a child, by his rebuting our reports when he finds that they rightly and honestly attack his character. Baring lacks character and CANNOT maintain and manage any business he begins, because each of them have always ended up in bankruptcy. I will say this again. Contact the London Police Department's Scam and Fraud Unit and the Powys (Wales) Police Department and soon, you will see the high number of reports filed against Baring by former customers, former employees, former creditors, his former website manager, and former watchsellers. Contact the Queensbridge London Court to verify my words are correct, as to Baring having to pay a 16,000+ Br. Pnds. Court Judgement plus daily 8% accrued interest. I do not want you to take my words as the Bible. Just contact these parties and ONLY THEN, you will find out WHO the REAL Stephen Baring (Jones) truly is.

In reply to the idiot who is damning Stephen Baring and condemning my very true report of my brother my comments made this morning are completely true. I am indeed his brother which shows just how little this idiot knows. I actual fact I wrote the article this morning (Saturday 18th April) not Friday 17th. The reason why I wrote the report about this unpleasant person who condemns my brother is that I had a long chat to my brother this very morning and found out the truth about the idiot who writes these condemning articles. I now know what a crook you are and wish you a very unpleasant life indeed.
Please feel free to email me personally on (((redacted))) so that I can slate you personally rather than you continuing to spread malicious gossip and mistruths on the Internet and indeed this site.

Yesterday, April 17, 2015, was written in defense of Stephen Mark Hugh Baring. This report was written not by David Jones, but by Stephen, himself. Notice the NUMBER of negative reports posted on this reputable site. I personally know MANY of Baring's victims, whose spirit and mental heasth have taken a bad toll. More than one Baring "victim" has detailed the same bad experiences. Baring wrote an outright lie. True, I was at one time part of the long-term unemployed here in the U.S., but as of late have secured a well paying job in my field of accounting. I ask each and every one of you victims to thorughly read ALL of the posts on this site, ALL of the posts on the scamorg.com site and the tripadvisor.com site. Also, ring up the London Police Department Fraid and Scamming Unit and do the same for the Powys, Wales Police Department. Did you carefully read of the chap who recovered over 16,000 Br. Pnds. by winning a Judgment against Baring? Please do read it; I believe this post is on this site. The Queens Bench division of the Courts has ordered Baring to pay one of his victims over 16,000 Br. Pnds. This judgment stipulates that if unpaid, 8% accrued daily interest will be assessed on Baring. Baring, in his psychopathic mind, thinks he is slick. We all know different. He has in his possession over $ 37,000 USD of my hard-earned money. Let it be known - Baring does not know what it is like to work an honest day's work. Others can easily attest to the fact that Baring is a leech who lives off of others to financially support him. His 80 or so victims are both male and female, but it is the vulnerable women who Baring especially targets. Let itbe known that he scammed and committed gross frau on a FORMER FRIEND, who today is 83 years old. let it be known that 2 of Baring's own ex-employees' watches were STOLEN by Baring, one of whom was a sunning Rolex Submariner. One of the negative posts written on the scamorg site was carefully and thoroughly penned by one of Baring's 2 Sister. Pay carefulattention to each detail in their post. Baring's total persona has been exposed by multitudes. I must be repetittious to make my point clear. Baring is unscrupulous, cunning, a pathological liar, possesses all of the traits of a psychopathic personality, self-aggrandizing, lacks business and personal ethics and morals, relentless, I am sorry to say evil, cunning, sly, lacks a human conscience by his blatently taking away the souls and hearts of all of his victims, unscrupulous, and vengeful. Please pay careful attention to the fact that after one negative post is written by each and every one of us, Baring feels that he must defend himself by writing his defense for our deprivation of our livelihoods. I do not like presenting myself as an "open book," but for purposes of this report, I must do so. Baring is the cause of my being enveloped with mental illness. On 4 occasions, I was rushed to the hospital, because I had suicidal ideations. BARING HAS DESTOYED, AND CONTINUE TO DESTROY, COUNTLESS LIVES. I wish I would be able to have all the writing space on this site to copy and paste over 100 Baring e-mails, a number of them were threats. he threatened ontwo occasions to hire two men to come to the U.S. to ''settle things." He defamed my character in 6 of his e-mails, labeling me as ugly and pathetic, because I was boen with no left eye. Is this a beast Yes. Is he a coward? Yes, in all certainty. So, readers of this site, I address the fact that when vctims write their experiences with Baring, AND AFTER A NUMBER OF POSTS APPEAR, Baring himself, in warped self defense, posts a diatribe defending his character, PAY IT NO MIND. Every Baring post on the site is outright rubbish. All 12 of his businesses were bankrupt. He attempted and failed in posting his products on EBay using the names of his 2 recently financially defunct companies. He was booted off of EBay. Then, he created a Facebook site, illegally selling watches and ''schlock art". The last business he ''owned'' was named Tempus Gallery and this company is the most recent Baring company to have failed. Need I say more. in closing, if you see Baring, run and do not walk. He is psychologically dangerous - to your mind, heart, and soul. I hope to see more Baring victims post their experiences on here.

I am the brother of Stephen Baring and have known him for forty seven years, which makes me a far better judge of his character than the one person who deems it their right to slate his character and try to bring down his business. I am also a teacher at a school in Milton Keynes and therefore a very good judge of character and believe, an upstanding and honest member of the community.
I know my brother to be extremely hard working, professional in manner, knowledge and expertise in his realm as well as being caring in terms of doing his best to those he serves or works with. His business is his life and he does all he can to provide the best that he can for those who require his service.
I know the true story of this one individual who claims that there are many others who supposedly have been cheated on too. This is indeed one sad and shallow imitation of a human being who portrays all there is about the worst things in mankind. Instead of accepting this and learning from their wrong doings, he has made it their life and a personal vendetta to not only lie about my brother and his business, but also take on the persona of others to add further lies and rumours about Stephen.
This one person has made it their life to write numerous reports in various websites, including this website, making up different reports, headings, creating gossip and telling outright lies about Stephen.
I also know first hand (from reading the many reviews and the feedback as well as the star rating in Ebay) of the many thousands of people across the globe who have dealt with Stephen in the purchase of antique watches and jewellery in the past and indeed present. They have all received a first class experience, receiving expert advice honesty and a true antique gem of a purchase. His Ebay reviews were littered with praise.
You may well read the various reports about my brother's wrong doings and begin to believe them. Just remember that if there is one peron who has what they deem an unfair or bad experience in the past, and wishes to adopt a vendetta against him it is extremely easy for them to write numerous reports, making up names, different stories and lies. If this person involved has been unemployed for four years as they say, why haven't they got themsleves a job to bring themself out of the verge of homelessness? It is clearly obvious that this person has all the time in the world to increase their vendetta against my brother, and to take the time to write in the persona of a number of supposed disgruntled customers.All it takes is a few hours to write a nunber of reports about my brother and all of a sudden people across the globe believe that there are many who feel the same way. It is very easy to create or fabricate as in this case, new profiles, email addresses, password and login details isn't it?
You could believe this, or you could choose to think about what I have said about my brother. I do not live in the same city as him, do not speak to him as regularly as I should, but know better than anyone else of his character, his upbringing, his mannerisms, his deep desire to be successful and his aim to build a business through bringing honesty, professionalism and expertise.
I too know of his faults being his brother (he used to be unkind to me at times as a child as older brothers do) but also know that he cares deeply about me and my family and would do anything he could to help us if we were in trouble. I also know that he as a business man, has to bring in a wage for those who work for him, but know that he WOULD NOT cheat on people in order to do this. Why would he if he is trying to build a successful image and business? Why do wrong doings that would make his clients uphappy when he trying to sell globally and be successful? Why would he tell lies when the Internet is a source of information and eveything would get back to him when he is tryng to make a living for himself and others?
He is not a crook as this one person claims, he is not a cheat and he is not sadistic or cunning. What this person says about him is unfounded and what the others say are completely falsified, unpleasant and untrue.
The only way to find out for yourself is to visit his gallery and see for yourself.
Expect to find someone who does charm you and who does have the knowledgeable patter, but you will also find somone who is true to their word and will deal with you professionally, honestly and truthfully. If you wish to find out more about the reasons behind this vendetta then ask him; he is open enough to tell you, and then take it as word. I know from 47 years of being his brother that it is the truth.

I strongly urge all who read this site who have read the many rebuttals posted by Stephen Jones (Baring) not to hold credence to even one ounce of defensive sympathy that he needs to feel regal.
Stephen Jones (Baring) has TORN APART the lives of ALL of his VICTIMS. One thing that all of you MUST UNDERSTAND is that, due to his being a chronic psychopath and a sociopath, he has 6 of the 8 symptoms.
I will only speak of 2 of the most pronounced of these symptoms:
1. Jones (Baring) is incapable of showing emotions and feelings.
2. Jones (Baring) has no regard for right vs. wrong and thereby
does not possess moral fiber, ethics, or respect for authority
figures.
Stephen Jones (Baring) has posted many rebuttals telling all that there are only 2 people responsible for posting negative reports against him. Do not let this pathetic bully stab your emotions with his words of evil. His former customers from England, Switzerland, Russia, and the U.S. and yes, many other countires' lives have been killed by this criminal menace.
BEWARE OF STPEHEN MARK HUGH JONES (BARING) AT ALL COSTS....OR ELSE.

If you hadn't noticed, Stephen Jones (aka Baring) has posted his verbal defense as to his credibility. His words are the oh so typical, outright lies that he continues to spew.
The London Police continues to be on his trail. In the London (Queens Bench) Court, a Judgment for 16,500 Br. Pnds. + 8.0% Court-appointed interest was imposed on Jones (Baring).
Also, ring up the England Fair Business Standards agency to further back up the valid and credible statements that myself and 60 to 75 other "victims" of Jones (Baring).
Call various London pawn shops. Jones (Baring) had the outright malevolence and lack of morals to sell alot of his victims' watches, which were sent to him to either trade or sell on the websites of his bankrupt businesses Tempus Suisse & Tempus Gallery and also on his now removed listings on EBay.
Note well, readers. Jones (Baring) does not know what it means to work to make a decent living. He is a most evil, obdurate, self-aggrandizing, immoral, unethical, unscrupulous leech who fits the definitions of a psychopath and a sociopath.
BEWARE-all of you women out there. Jones (Baring) makes his calculating moves to those women who are PASSIVE, OVERLY TRUSTING, and GULLIBLE. He has done this to me, being a chap of 60. If you see Jones (Baring-there are at least 3 clear photos of him on this site- I STRONGLY WARN YOU TO RUN AND NOT WALK AWAY FROM THIS BEAST WHO SPEWS EVIL VENOM.

To victims and soon-to-be victims of this evil person, Stephen (Jones) Baring, he faslely and deceivingly reports that two of his victims make it their business to defame his character. Jones (Baring) TRULY DOES lack any sense of moral fiber, ethics, honesty, and PROFESSIONALISM. He shows NO RESPECT for people. He used to treat his former employees as if they were his SLAVES.
Jones (Baring) has a venomous, evil mouth, which is his defense when his victims verbally confront him. Since the 1990s up until today, Jones (Baring) had approximately 12 to 16 ''businesses" that have failed. Why did ALL of these businesse fail? They failed because he did not know to manage his finances and had a misguided sense of priorities. After all, his biggest priorities in life were and still are to supposedly wine and dine in first class restaurants - squandering most of his money and when it comes to pay his disgruntled creditors and debtors, he simply did not have barely enough money to pay the bills.
Jones (Baring) had literally no clue as to how to run a ''business' PROPERLY. His so-called accounting records were a bloody mess. His credits greatly exceed his debits to the point of NO RETURN. On his Tempys Suisse site, it used to say (AND ABOUT ONE YEAR AGO, Jones (Baring) removed it, "I am a professional and as such, I will treat you and your money in a professional manner. I have my 20+ years of professional experience to back up what I say.
Jones (Baring) HAS ALWAYS BOASTED to many of hus ''customers" that he had 6,000 customers throughout the world. This is bloody hogwash. He knows and WE KNOW IT.
Lastly, Jones (Baring) posted that there are ONLY TWO former customers that have been BAD-MOUTHING him. Besides reading the reports on this site, why don't you also check out the negative reports that were posted on the 192.com site? Also, ring up The London Police Department's Fraud and Scam Unit? There are NUMEROUS REPORTS FILED with them. If you reside in the U.S., why don't you call the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation).
I ask you. What would you do if Jones (Baring) maliciously STOLE your $ 19,883.38 USD rare 1946 platinum Patek watch? What would you do if Jones (Baring) asked you to invest money into his "Vintage Watch Investment Fund," which would mean that you would have to deposit your hard-earned money into his "BOGUS SCAM FUND?" I stupidly deposited $ 7,500 USD into his fund and sure enough, I was rippsed off. What would you do if you bought a 1950 pink gold/steel Cartier watch on Nov. 27, 2012 and paid $ 6,613 USD (or 4,000 Br. Pnds) for it and it NEVER WAS SHIPPED TO ME? What would you do if you shipped your black-dialed 1993 Breitling chronograph to him for him to sell and if this watch did sell, I would receive 85% of the proceeds and Jones (Baring) would get 15% of the proceeds. Jones (Baring) sold my watch and HAS NEVER paid me for the sale. By the way, I paid $ 3,919,46 USD for it.
There are victims of Jones (Baring) from ALL OVER THE WORLD: England, Switzerland, the U.S., Russia.....THE LIST OF COUNTRIES IS SO LENGTHY THAT ALL OF THEM WILL NOT BE POSTED HERE.
What I am about to jot down here is not meanr to you to feel any iota of synpathy toward me, but my sole intent is to let you know HOW JONES (BARING) HAS KILLED THE HEARTS, SOULS, AND MINDS of myself and many others, On Aug. 30, 2013, Sept. 27, 2013, Oct. 7, 2013, and Mar. 22, 2014, I attempted suicide, due to Jones (Baring).
Let me close by WARNING ALL of you that Jones (Baring) is an evil, mean, callous sociopath/psychopath.
DO NOT EVEN THINK OF APPROACHING HIM. A WORD TO THE WISE IS SUFFICIENT.

This rebuttal is in regard to the rebuttal posted by Stephen Jones (aka Baring). Have you noticed that Mr. Jones had posted not one but two reburrals? To the many, many victims whom Jones had committed gross fraud against, to the multitude of victims whom Jones had scammed, and last but not least, to all of the former employees, creditors, customers and watchsellers whom he has stole from - WAKE UP AND SMELL THE ROSES.
Jones' (Baring's) posting of rebuttals serve as a defense mechanism to mask the heavy guilt of his deceiptful, malicious, self-aggrandizing criminal acts. Jones' (Baring's) citing that there are TWO VICTIMS who are the ONLY victims that he has robbed from is a FAT LIE and Jones' (Baring) knows it.
Why is it that each and every business that he gets of of the ground FAILS MISERABLY and is BANKRUPT in no time? Why? By scamming, stealing, defrauding, and deceiving all who unfortunately come into contact with him, to recoup his extremely high monetary losses, he then resorts to criminal activities.
BEWARE -- ONE AND ALL! IF Jones (Baring) approaches you, RUN AND NOT WALK away from him. He IS a leach, he IS unscrupulous, he IS self-aggrandizing, he IS unrepentent, he IS malevolent, he DOES NOT have the utmost respect for the AUTHORITIES. He attacks both women and men. IF YOU ARE A WOMAN, you would be IN MORE DANGER.
On his defunct TEMPUS SUISSE site, MANY former victims of Jones (Baring) CAN, INDEED, attest to the fact that a large % of the vintage watches that he sold were FAKE. On his defunct TEMPUS GALLERY site, it is widely known that he would buy cheap and at times fake art reproductions from the EBay site for dirt cheap prices and would then list these paintings, drawings, and lithographs on Ebay for as much as 15 times the price that Jones (Baring) paid for them.
Why do you think Jones' (Baring's) TEMPUS SUISSE and TEMPUS GALLERY sites were removed by EBay? Think about it.
In closing, I cannot WARN all of you so strongly to STAY AWAY from Stephen Jones (Baring) as far as possible.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
You may have seen negative messages about me and my businesses on the internet. Sadly, two malicious individuals are making it their life mission to unfairly destroy my reputation. One I won a court case against and the other I fired for gross misconduct. They know each other and are working together, using friends and aliases to make it look as though more people are involved. I won't dignify their messages by responding in detail, but I will say that their allegations are complete lies - born by the envy and bitterness of two people who failed in life. Fortunately, those who know me know that I am an honourable professional, but sadly those who do not know me may be negatively influenced. The internet is still an unregulated Wild West and all of us in business or professional prominence are vulnerable in this way - we all inevitably come into contact with low quality people.

STEPHEN BARING FOUND HIDING IN GALLERY AT BRICK LANE, LONDON.
Dont want your name added to his exhaustive list of victims, then read on:
Stephen Baring previously evicted from his rented gallery at 214 Brick Lane earlier this year, now under the protection of a lady at her gallery area, other end of Brick Lane, under the 'Arches', albeit she is unaware of his inevitable intention of preying upon her goodwill. Having successfully dominated her patch, as usual, he will be planning his next attack, hopefully this statement will convince YOU not to deal with Mr Stephen Baring of Tempus Gallery / Tempuss Suisse in any way whatsoever, he will fraudulently strip you of your assets, destroy & humiliate you, just as he has done to me and my family, and many other people.
He has STOLEN hundreds of thousands of GB pounds, many watches, antiques & pieces of art, from many many clients, traders, retailers, suppliers & staff, along with leaving a trail of unpaid rents, bills & invoices, let alone what he has done personally to many other victims & staff.
He will tell you what you want to hear, 'I will help you', I believe in you', I have a vision', he may appear charming, a guise of his true character, he is ruthless, heartless, gutless, fraudulent thieve, with countless POLICE REPORTS in London & Powys, Wales.
Previously named; Stephen Jones, from 2 Glyn Orig, Cemmaes, Machynlleth, Powys, Wales, formerly & next to his parents home.
His current accomplices are Salome Jones (wife) & Julian Gooden (online mngr), both deny any such fraudulent activities, yet having participated in all events one way or another, that is the infuence & dominating control Stephen Baring has over these people.
BEWARE, STEPHEN BARING WILL BE PLANNING HIS NEXT VICTIM:
WILL IT BE YOU?
Whether friend or foe, investor, client, staff, landlord/lady, supplier, girlfriend, family.......
Still have doubt? then read the many statements on ripoffreport.com & many other internet sites, call the Police in Powys or London, (or your local Police), they have many reports, check out 'Stephen Mark Hughes Baring' (ex Stephen Jones). (dob; 27.4.64) on credit check, he has over 12 dissolved companies so far, and many closed ventures.

Regardng Stephen Jones (Baring), he writes bloody lies and cannot tell the truth whatsoever. Jones (Baring) writes, in his e-mail below, that 2, yes, 2 former employees have been posting most of the reports on this site. This is a LIE and Jones (Baring) knows it. Atpresent, between 50 and 70 of Jones' (Barings') former loyal customers have been his ''bait'', his ''victims." Jones (Baring) stole over 30,000 Br. Pnds. from an elderly chap from Sweden, who is THE authority on Vacheron & Constantin watches. As for me, Jones (stole) over 22,500 Br. Pnds. from his fraud acts and from his scam(s). Do not let Jones (Baring) fool you. Do not let him influence your opinion as to his ''spiffy clean'' reputation. About 1 1/2 years ago, He had to appear in Court - the Queens Court - and Jones (Baring) has been ordered to pay one of his ''victims" 16,500 Br. Pnds. plus 8% daily accrued interest!
People from Russia, Italy, Sweden, the U.S., and yes England number among the people whom Jones (Baring) has grossly stolen from. He has used as an overworked lie that his reason for not sending out watches that customers had piad for was that his watchmaker from Europe had a death in his family.
I bought a 1950 pink gold/steel Cartier watch on November 27, 2012 and have not received the watch, Paid over 4,000 Br. Pnds. for it. I wired 7,545 USD to Baring as a deposit into his scam - "Vintage Watch Investment Fund. He e-mailed me its contract on March 7, 2013, agreeing to oay me a 20% return on every watch that he sells during a monthly sales cycle. Now, we are talking of big dollars -- at least $ 50,000 USD.
Now here is the straw that broke the camel's back. We agreed to trade my 1946 solid platinum Patek Philippe "Top Hat," which costed me $ 19,883.38 USD. I FedExed my watch to him. He kept or, knowing Jones (Baring) my prize watch and wore it often. I bought a champagne/light gray Patek strap for it.
Read Jones' RipOff Report complaints!! Read the numerous complaints on both the 192.com/Tempus Gallery site and the 192.com/Tempus Suisse site.
I forewarn ALL people WHO WOULD EVEN CONSIDER BUYING ANYTHING FROM THE LIKES OF STEPHEN MARK HUGH JONES, THEN YOU MUST ENJOY BEING ROBBED ROYALLY AND TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF
I erred re: the correct name of the London Court where Jones (Baring) was ordered to pay 16,500 Br.Pnds. to a ''victim." The correct name of this Court is The Queen's Bench Court and NOT simply The Queens Court.
WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD SQUANDER 165 BR. PNDS. TO 395 BR. PNDS. ON RUBBISH THAT JONES (BARING) DRESSES UP TO MAKE THE CHEAP LITHOGRAPH SOUND LIKE A VALUABLE LITHOGRAPH. DO NOT BE FOOLED BY HIM.
WHAT HE WILL DO WHEN HE FIRST MEETS YOU IS THAT HE WILL DO PLENTY OF ''APPLE POLISHING,'' TELLING YOU THAT HE LIKES YOU AND HE WANTSS TO BE YOUR FRIEND. A WORD TO THE WISE : DO NOT FALL FOR THIS JONES (BARING) LINE. I STUPIDLY FELL FOR IT AND LOOK WHERE I AM TODAY.
IF YOU PAY FOR A WATCH OR A PIECE OF RUBBISH ART FROM JONES (BARING), HE WILL TAKE YOUR HARD-EARNED MONEY and he will NOT ship the item or items TO YOU. He will smply pocket (steal) your money. He began his frauds and scams in 2012 AND IS STILL COMMITING GROSS FRAUD AND IS STILL SCAMMING HERE IN 2014.
It is EXTREMELY IMPERATIVE that the majority of you people out there who HAS been grossly ripped off by Stephen Mark Hugh (Baring) TO PLEASE COME FORWARD.

To ALL former customers of Stephen Jones (Baring) -- Read the MANY reportson The Rip Off Report; read the 12 reports found on the 192.com Tempus Suisse business.
Jones' (Baring's) many businesses - some of which were used as a scam operation - such as his hoax business - ''qoxo'', which wasSUPPOSED TO BE a world hunger organization and ''domain 90'' were very sketchy so-called businesses.
Jones' (Baring's) - all 8 of them (the # could be more) became bankrupt in 2013 and what his fraud/scam operation was about was and still is to recoup money to try and pay his NUMEROUS creditors, he would used these funds from the sale of watches and art and once a customers buys a watch or an art piece, he would receive the cusomer's money and then NOT DELIVER the watch or art piece.
STEPHEN JONES (BARING) IS WANTED BY THE LONDON POLICE.
STEPHEN JONES CONTINUES TO BE ''ON THE RUN,'' STAYING AT
VARIOUS BRITISH ''PADS."
A V O I D S T E P H E N M A R K H U G H J O N E S by all
means. He is a leech. He is arrogant. He is a ''snake, in his spewing
his ''verbal venon'' and obnoxious, limp threats.
BE ASSURED THAT STEPHEN JONES (BARING) IN ALL CERTAINTY WILL
BE CAUGHT.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM STEPHEN BARING/TEMPUS SUISSE
You will have seen negative messages about me and my businesses, including Tempus Suisse, on the internet. Sadly, two malicious individuals are making it their life mission to destroy the online reputation of myself and my businesses. One I won a court case against and the other I fired for gross misconduct. They know each other and are working together, using friends and aliases to make it look as though more people are involved. Their many allegations are complete nonsense but there is little I can do in the short term. Fortunately, those who know me know that I am an honourable professional, but those who do not know me may be negatively influenced. The internet is still an unregulated Wild West and all of us in business or professional prominence are vulnerable in this way - we all inevitably come into contact with low quality people.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at [email protected]
Thank you,
Stephen Baring

Have any Stephen Jones (Baring) victims seen a very recent photo of him with his darker hair coloring job?
His usual color is medium brown. His latest hair coloring is very dark sienna brown - very close to looking black.
Keep checking back on this site for the latest developments with the Stephen Jones Baring fiasco, which will not end until he is brought to justice in a Court of Law.

This rebuttal is to the attention of 'bailiff,' who wants to know Baring's whereabouts. As you may know, I have filed numerous Complaints on this site, the .192 com site, on the action fraud site which is the fraud site of the London Police Department, etc. I have been in correspondence with a person on the .192 site who uses the handle 'ken smith,' who informed me that the London Police Department has caught up with Baring. I do know for a fact that one of Baring's former watch customers won a Judgment against Baring at the Queens Court in London to the tune of about 16,500 Br. Pnds. Now that the London Police has caught up with Baring, there may be a possibility that he could be in jail. I am not sure whether you live in the U.S. or in England. If you do live in the U.S., I was told by a dear friend of mine to file an online Complaint with the U.S. FBI. (the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation) I will check this site a few times daily to check to see if you reply to my rebuttal. Thank you for contacting me on this site.

Do you know how/where we can contact Stephen Baring, he will not answer his telephone & addresses, no reply to corresspondence! Tempus Suisse, Bond street London is a mail forwarding address.
Tempus Gallery, Brick Lane London is closed. Owners and staff at local businesses say he was evicted from his basement gallery, 214 Brick Lane, London.
No one answers the door at 143 Stephens Road, Stratford, London.
We need to locate Stephen to settle outstanding monies owed.

I am providing ALL of Baring's passive customers an update- that Baring and his new e-mail address is using the name Helen. He wrote to one of his loyal Russian customers named Roman telling Roman that both he and I have ruined HIS reputation and that both of us will not get our monies back UNLESS WE REMOVE OUR BEGATIVE FEEDBACK FIRST BEFORE HE REFUNDS US OUR MONEY. Baring also told Roman that I am a liar. Baring will use ANY means at his disposal to defame my character which in actuality is the antithesis of his own personality- It is his cruel, malevolent, sociopath, evil, deceiptful, fraudulent, sadistic personality, the personality who uses actual verbal threats of killing a British family and who also threatened to cause harm to this former customer/employees' 2 children! AS some of you may know, Baring appeared before a Judge at the Queens Court in London and the Judge awarded one of Baring's customers a Judgment in the amount of approx. 16,300 Br. Pnds. This is not goof enough. Baring's body needs to be put away in jail for a very long time. DO YOU THINK THAT FOR 1 MINUTE BARING CARES THAT I AM SO VERY CLOSE TO BEING HOMELESS AND WILL NOT REFIND ME MY $34,016 USD THAT HE FRAUDULENTLY STOLE FROM ME? NO, SIRS. NO, MADAMS. IF MORE OF BARING'S FORMER CUSTOMERS COME FORWARD, THIS ACT WOULD HELP US GET OUR MONEY BACK. I have posted Complaints -- many -- on this site and have posted Complaints on the Action Fraud web site, and the .192 com web site and have also contacted the London Police -- Fraud Unit. ALSO, ALL OF YOU BARING FORMER CUSTOMERS NEED TO BE ACTIVE AND NOT PASSIVE AND SEEK AN ATTORNEY/BARRISTER/SOLICITOR AND FILE A LEGAL CASE AGAINST BARING. i HAVE BEGUN THIS PROCESS AND MY PRO-BONO ATTORNEY IS NOW IN THEPROCESS OF HIRING A BRITISH BARRISTER & A BRITISH SOLICITOR TO WORK WITH MY U.S. ATTORNEY. WE WILL ALL PROVE VICTORS AND NOT LOSERS. ACT AND ACT NOW....

Ken,
Now you have put a report on the ripoff site. Reports cannot be removed from that site, not even by the poster, and the more you do this the less likely you are to get a way forward with me. You are now making this a war and it will get to the point where I will have no option but to pay people to find you. This is not a joke, or an idle threat. As I said, the world is now a very small place. You are only a few hours away. I will protect what is mine.
Stephen
This e-mail from Stephen Baring is a threat and as he points out, "not a joke or an idle threat...."
Need I say more....
