Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if you could help me out please.

Recently I transferred money (22/04/2009) to Jess R33 for a PFC and HC post link is:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Po...55#entry4564955

After many PMs back and forth, with the last being Friday evening (24/04/2009) she said that she would post it Saturday.....

Since that PM I haven't heard from her despite sending her several PMs as well as posting twice on the thread.

I am worried that I have lost my money....and not really sure what to do

All I know, besides her bank details, which I won’t put on this thread are:

Name: Jessica

Lives in Rockhampton

Drives a maroon R33

Also selling an Apexi AVCR on a different thread....

Does anyone on this forum or who lives in Rockhampton know her? Can anyone offer any suggestions or help me please?

I really do hope that this is just a misunderstanding and a PM appears tomorrow (or better the PFC arrives) but I am losing hope.....

Thanks,

Peter

I just looked into it all and Im sorry to say mate but you've been stiched...

You will notice admin has banned the user, and look at her other thread where she/he ignored the Location question...

Best thing you can do is lodge a complain of fraud with the WA Police and give them all the details...

There is little they will do but if this person does it enough then the feds will get onto it, fraud carry's some harsh jail time so do report it...

Advice for the future, dont buy from a new member with only 5 posts, stick to club members, contributers, people with high trader rating & of course long time users as these are the sort of people who are well known...

Sorry to give you the bad news mate...

He/She has already started a new account and is selling again, just found it...

It really sucks that there are assholes like this out there. It was my concern of something like this happening that pushed me into buying a new pfc from a trader and not second hand from a user. I hope he/she gets found and cops the maximum punishment.

still dont take all people with 5 post bad as not all are there are alot of readers who never post

and not all people are bad i got my PFC of someone with 3 post - just dont send all your money to a random that no one knows

do some research on the person to find out if a they are real or if people know them personally as i know with ash who i got my PFC off he runs in time attack and has been in the scene for years but never posts on the forum and when i brought it he had 3 post

but always if ever in doubt dont do it or go pick it up and pay cash if near by or if you really need and it seems dodge try and find someone who lives near by who is respectable in the community and see if they will pick it up on your behalf and send them the money as im sure most here would do that for you and ask for nothing or at the most a carton for the work

These people are not very smart, they give you their bank details to do a direct transfer.

1. To open a bank account you need a drivers licence

2. A second point of ID to make up 100 points of ID

You give the guy your ripping off your band details, the person getting ripped off makes a complaint to the police.

The police go to the bank, turn some account details into an address and a name and then your charged with fraud.

Just seems so dumb to me to even try, may as well rob someone in person with no mask, thats more enonomus...

I got ripped off like this back in england for some seats,

If you go to the police and report it with the bank details they will be able to find out who that account belongs to and bring charges against them,

Hope it gets sorted for you

Don't know... they've been a member on Boost for a while...

From what i was reading on her posts, her ather half does all her mods, so probably his feet...

A bit in common between the 2 but...

Hey guys,

I am in the process of following it up, with lots of help from Col.

Thanks for all your comments and suggestions - much appreciated!

Perhaps she/he just needed some money for a good shower....or a manicure/pedicure???? :)

Happened to me last year, see here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Po...40#entry4133940

and then he created another account and tried to sell it to someone else - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fs...35#entry4155935

funny thing is this guy thinks he will get away with it... one day it will catch up with him :D

    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
