Scammer!!: Trail Slide

I ordered a spoiler from him five days ago.. He said two days ago "it's in the mail". But I have asked for tracking three times and also just asked him to tell me what company he shipped it through.. He logs in a few times a day, but will not respond. I know it has only been five days, but the horrible communication has me worried..

That's nice to know. I just sent him $200 for some JDM Evo 7 Tails and now I see this. No wonder he hasn't responded. Looks like I will be talking to PayPal to get my money back.

Thanks man. But I'm pretty sure he doesn't have the parts. Sold me a gg wing from a 2011 evo x (supposidly), sold a evo ix ww hood, some evo 7 tail lights, and some TB evo 8 parts.. It's gotta be a scam..

I sent him a PM. In the future, you may want to either PM a moderator directly or report your thread. With the volume on this site, we rarely spot a thread based solely on browsing.

I've had a roommate assume my identity before. Sucks. Get ready for years of torment depending on far he went with it. My roommate got my social and to this day my license in Canada is screwed up.

Only thing that saved me was moving to the states

Oh man, I hope it hasn't gone any farther has forums and paypal, to get on this site and others he had to of installed a key logger of some type to get my passwords. I am changing my passwords for EVERY account I can think of at the moment.

The worst part about this is people have my name and address, this puts myself and my family at danger because of someone else's actions He has the same name as his father, knows his social, and got a hold of an emergency/death fund set up after his father sold some real estate - 3 months later 60k was drained from the account.

Obviously this isn't done by anyone who has a straight head screwed on ... and he doesn't ... he has been struggling with a bad addiction that he developed before it forced him to drop out of college. Now I graduate and he sneaks my paypal debit that I rarely use (so I wouldn't realize it was gone) out of my wallet and gets to work putting me into a financial hole while I am enjoying the last few weeks of summer. As much as I'd like to post more information about this individual who I once called a friend, I was advised not to for obvious reasons by my attorney.

Please guys, as mad as everyone is - just realize you were NOT dealing with me - I sincerely apologize for his actions. I will make this right even if it is at my expense
