Scammed!

[r_speedfreak_r]

sorry to be off topic but damn dude. u gotta send me pics of your car

hrmmm license details...

I vote for people who wish to sell in the for sale sections of SAU should provide a good quality scanned/photo of the license and contact details (phone etc).

We would record the persons details and if required for some unknown legal issue discard the licence scan/photo. Possibly even check up with a quick phone call (voip so local cost interstate calls).

I'm currently the SA mod which basically looks after its self these days so I have no issues increasing work load.

I honestly don't buy of ppls I haven't seen around SAU for a long time; which is a bummer as there's quite a few good little items that pop up from time to time that I simply don't purchase due to my suspicious nature.

It sadens me to see that most of the people can do the right thing and theres allways those few c**ts that tend to ruin it for every one else

i got ripped off a little while ago from calais turbo so i know how you feel to some extent

And cubes the licence idea is great, but images are so easy to forge these days unfortunatly

Good luck with this shit though

i got roarted $1800 1 time on the forums, and if i had 1 wish it would be to be able 2 meet the prick that took my cash and then i would knife him....

1 little word of advice, onl buy the item if u can go inspect it coz 80 percent of hese people selling stuff r full of shit

[Muffa180]

I agree. Good luck with getting your money back.

goodluck in finding him!

i got scammed on ebay, saw pictures, looked fine, purchased the item.

rims came, horrible condition, tyres bald, Wrong PCD! advertised as 5x114.3, came as 5x100.

(gotta attribute fault to my stupidity as well. But i guess it happens to most new buyers, now i tend to be more wary) Sold them off for next to nothing as they were buckled etc.

tried to obtain a refund, by calling, emailing and even going through certain govt agencies but not much help.

The agencies just ring him up and he says their the correct rims and they cant do anything abt it. pretty useless. Thought abt flying down to SA to get my money back but at the end of the day, just wasnt worth it.

Just a word of advice weapn; now that you've told the forum your plans - you kinda "need" to keep the meeting "civilized" otherwise you're just breaking the law yourself.

Best of luck with the recovery; as mentioned - hopefully this will be a message to all scammers that personal details are not hard to come by and people do/will catch up!

thanks Satanic

Of course the meeting will be civilised.

Not like I am going to go down there and break his legs.

I wouldnt post that evidence on the forum.

Ive also given details to the cops.

Just a back up plan

Take a photo of his ugly face, and put it up on some degrading website for all of us to see .
