Strange thing, i actually asked him about that because that turbo was supposed to be included and he told me he made that stuff up so he could sell it to me since i was buying the entire package.

cops won't do anything, a few years back i was scammed on another forum (which starts with NI and ends with CO) for a laptop and the cops, the forum adms or anyone did anything to help the situation... neither did a online goverment thing someone sent me for when people are scammed...

Banning him from the marketplace will at least prevent him from coming back to the forums when we have all forgotten what he has done and scamming others who may not be aware of his past history...

Wtf? It needs to be revised in the sense that some sellers still request payment be sent as a gift wether it's on a forum, Craigslist or whatever and u should be givin the chance to submit an appeal and include saved inquiries to show that in case of a situations maybe not like this, but where money is lost due to gift upon request. Wtf

The point of paying with paypal and getting charged a fee is to help protect you in the case of a incident. If you are sending money as a gift and not paying a fee for the service, why the fuck will paypal help you if you decide to be cheap and not pay the 3.5% fee. I tell buyers sometimes when its over 100 to add paypal fees or send as a gift. It's the buyer's choice to decide what he wants to do.

Simply if you are sending a payment to someone and he tells you to send as a gift,but you dont trust him, dont do it. Just tell him you will add the 3.5 fee or whatever its at now. SO stop being a cheap fuck and crying when you get screwed out of your money( this is not directed to the op).

[ship2236]

Lol, was it directed Torwards me kind sir?

[blueshark123]

No not just to you.Really anyone who complains about gifting in paypal. Dont take it to serious.

[ship2236]

Lol I wouldn't necessarily call it complaining. More like stating an opinion I have regaurding the gifting aspect of PayPal. But no hard feelings haha

I already sent the down payment at that point and he was pretty convincing but yes i should of backed out of the deal after hearing that.

I agree although his car is completely parted out from what he tells me.

Actually, if you go in the FS section, one of the mods (PHLIP) got a sticky up top telling people its a baaaaaad idea to send money as a gift via paypal. I just wish people would actually read the stickies. They're permanently there for a reason. I'll report this thread to the mods in Premie Land, maybe they can atleast pink the SOB. Worst thing that will happen is that he'll make another account to get around it, then he can be perma-band from this forum. I fucking hate thieves and scammers.

[mot]

ok just to add my part here since an admin showed me this thread. this ENTIRE situation is sketchy and the OP is not explaining it all this was 2 months in the making though i gave him a quote for shipping not even a month after the transaction TWO the motor was "Stolen" the day it was supposed to be picked up by the shipping company the OP told me he finalized paperwork with and told me id be receiving a bill of lading from them via email which i never got theres MANY more details to this. also i got a phone call from a police officer 3 days ago stating that the OP wasnt returning THEIR calls and they are no longer investigating this.

so many details are missing from this story and given my evidence and information it leads to the engine being "stolen" by the shipping company or the OP himself somehow seeing as how he was the ONLY person who KNEW it was outside and if you knew where i lived no one would ever just drive by and see it trust me people i have cooperated with the OP and the police on this and i did not scam anyone i was also willing to work with the OP somehow before i was threatened with court which was a legit way of dealing with it on his part but dont expect my help if im going to get sued.
any questions for me can be taken to pm if youd like i have no issues talking about this all day

[90white240]

Ahhh.... So I take back what I said. This dude^^^ thinks the op "could" be the one trying to do a scam, and the op believes that the "dude" is the scammer. So who is the real scammer tan tan tan..... the world may never know????

[sash_ak21]

I made this thread in hopes of locating the parts not to debate over the internet, this is why i kept it short and brief.

[SRp0wers13]

this sounds fishy from MOT...??? I'm a driver that work for a freight company and it's ez to steal small sht but an engine? BOL is ez to get(make your own on a blank paper is a BOL as long as you know the buyer's addy).... info you need on bol is shipper's addy, buyer's addy, qty of merchant(engine, parts, etc), weight, and sign by shipper and driver who pick it up... b4 all this happens there is a process where the shipper calls the trucking company to pick it up... Driver come and pick up the freight and label it w. a tracking number, put the info into a computer system, and go... no way anyone can steal a heavy ass engine with all the info in the system..... this is stinky... I come to a conclusion, SCAM... had his friend steal that sht and claim he dont know....? Why keep the the OP's money... he didnt lose the goodies... refund that sht back...

Go to your bank, tell them the transfer you sent you isn't get the item or whatever back. If its been over a month or maybe 2 at most then your screwed out of all of it.

[xeemersil80]

Who the hell are you?? Are you the motherfucker who sold this dude the motor?? If not shut fuck up because you are just at fault with the dude who was selling the motor. If there some kind of lawsuit against ya then it clearly means ya idiots are bad business. Little advice to ya on how to fix this..give full refund back to this Guy and go to your local authority and file a report that your dumb ass friend left his shit out in the drive way to get it stolen. And trust me I will bring my big ass guns..lol

[GroundPerformance]

^^^ Unless I read this whole this wrong. I believe he is the one that sold the motor to the OP.

[Tommy]

Wow he won't refund you because it was stolen while in his possession? Doesn't make sense at all.

Nice to hear the process from a person who does it for a living, your right there's to many things that don't add up. I've already got documentation to rule the freight company out of this mess.

Ive purchased many things of the my350z.com forums and never had any problems, but after this experience I don't think ill be doing much of that anymore.

Yah, mot is the seller.

[youngfab59]

mot seemed cool when i did my transaction with him for a set of jdm power folding mirrors but when i got them only one was power folding and the other was regular power mirror. i asked for either a partial refund or the correct mirror but i kept getting excuses from this guy and he would never respond to my calls or texts.

this dude is super sketchy.

@OP I hope everything turns out good for you and you get your money back.

[godrifttoday]

People are just plain idiots. Let me Paypal some guy I don't know 700 bucks as a a gift because I really really and I mean really want this motor. You deserve this. Maybe you did something in the past , so here's your karma ....


Sucks for you though.
