Apparently this guy has been scamming people by “selling” car parts. He scammed one too many and everyone is tracking him down. Thread is 48 pages long and I have only made it to page nine right now.
Interesting reading.

I was up until almost 3 last night reading this thread. I have been back at it for almost two hours today and am only half way into it
It is amazing what can be found online, they have address, phone numbers, ssn, father's buisness info...
another several hours of reading to go

to much to read..
but from what i understand..he is a bastard..thats certain..
but please ppl tell me..
dont we all learn at some point in our lives that you should NEVER pay in advance in these situations?
Hell ive been a victim of scams like these several times..with all from cars to computers ..
ppl wanting money and sending the stuff afterwards..

I dont play that game

PS
And we arent exactly talking about kids here..these folks are most likely grown ups..

Re: MBworld scam - 06-03-2008, 03:02 PM

Thats a shocker, and im just skimming. Made it to page 4 .

I just dont get it though, scammers are everywhere these days and they take away all of the good things from the internet and trading online.

Re: MBworld scam - 06-03-2008, 03:31 PM

I read through most of it yesterday (can't recommend reading all of it, a few pages is enough to get the jist). I hope they get him. He seems to have scammed people on many forums and on eBay through dozens, maybe hundreds of different usernames.
