some people are pathetic scum bags. get a life and actually WORK for your money
We can see IP addys but sometimes they dont match up even though its the same person. Thats what makes it difficult. We do have other methods though

POS scammers DIAFF. I personally hate scammers with a ****ing passion.
Yea it was pretty obvious. His retarded "I have no oil cooler" thread really set it off I HATE scammers and thieves with a passion too so I was giving him a hard time after I connected the dots. My car has been broken into twice so I'm definitely after ALL thieves/scammers now.

this is a real good thread, and it really helps everytime when I buy things on here. But I'm wondering if it is possible to have a thread or a post which contains a list of all "so-called" scammers and have it maintained by the MOD? It'd be much easier to go thru a list of names before hitting the "SEND" button on paypal :-)

Ha man, I knew it... I thought the same thing. Im sure chi12 is still on here under a different name reading these posts, what a piece of ****.

When someone joins just to defend someone else, something sketchy is going on.

So do the mods lock accounts of ppl scamming? Because this evotheorum guy has nothing but for sale posts, at least lock his account until I get a refund? I would hate to see more ppl fall for this low life.

Beware EvolutionVIIIrs

While maybe not a full blown scammer, EvolutionVIIIrs has turned into a bad seller. I paid him for some parts on March 30th, still no parts. If you look back thru the scam pages this is his third complaint. What's bad for me is I wanted to help the guy by paying as a gift so I would pay the fees(even though in the notes I said payment for "X" parts), if you pay as a gift you have NO recourse through PayPal. You have lost your money cause afterall, "it's a gift".

So, don't buy **** from this guy and do not ever pay as a "GIFT"

Cheers,
John

NOBODY BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS SCAMMER

so i did some digging and then found this on this on this forum i wish i would have known...

THIS IS HIS THREAD.. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ge...-knocking.html

funny i bought a "good running 60k condition" from this guy after a week of no tracking number then finally calling r&l carriers to get a tracking number motor is delivered

looks as if it has been sitting in a field and drug behind a truck and drowned in oil...


missing a oil plug in front of block rusted to holy hell but never the less

we made the best and swapped all good parts and new timing components to have a nice maintained motor to start with


install the engine get it to run and what do you know knocking.... stethiscope on the oil pan / block on pistons 1-2 sound like there is NO bearings on the rod...

since then i have text and called the seller and no response...

why sell a motor without telling me the issues or concerns telling me and insuring me im getting a great engine for a great price...

my question does anyone know this guy sokvouth em and how to get ahold of him this needs resolver paypal dispute has been started

please come clean and refund my money and my carbon fiber trunk that we traded..

-Austin

I think you should have checked it out before going through the hassle of putting it in the car. Bearings are easy to check so start there. If he unloaded that dirty engine on you, i wish you luck in getting it straightened out.

the point is we were told it was a 60k mile motor with no issues.... why tear down a motor with so little miles to "check bearings" when we were told they were good. Bottom line, dude shouldnt have lied about his motor being junk... whats really pissin me off is even if paypal gives me my money back, dude still gets away with my trunk...

Dood, I agree 100% that this guy shouldn't have lied, and hopefully he steps up and doesn't bring this honda scammer **** to our community. BUT, when you said it looked like it had been sitting in a field, that would raise some red flags. I figured that since you have the capability to put the engine in, taking the oil pan off and taking a couple rod caps off wasn't a crazy thing to say. I wasn't trying to add insult to injury.
