Well I had gone through one of these scams before and made sure to video me opening the box. When people are this stupid sometimes they make stupid mistakes, take for example the packaging slip that was included in the box, from the seller with tracking information for a set of ram he ordered from newegg. He forgot to take that out. But I was supposedly being sent a GTX280, but the box was not large enough to fit a GTX 280 box in it. See the pictures and video for some ideas on documenting your packages.

Of course I took many more including the shipping sticker etc. Make sure to document everything guys, that will be very important should you need it. Note: the video card in the picture was my gtx280.

oh you guys, i forgot to mention, the shipping label said DJ Lewis but the address was to the UPS store, which says 7850 White Lane, which was a suspected address i believe.

you can call the store and ask DJ lewis's adress

Thanks for the info/video it will help for sure.


Wile E, when you videotape anything including a murder caught on film it could have been staged but the shipping weight of his package is also enough proof unless he forged it as well by paying from home before shipping it at the UPS store etc. We are accumilating overwhelming evidence against him so the FBI knows it will be an easy case for them. So they will get right on it.

 

[erocker]

Just want to remind everyone to file complaints with the FBI using http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx. Let's make sure this con-artist lands in prison.

 

[Marcam923]

Yeah guys the box was empty, the guy who tried to scam me was cheap and the shipping weight was only 1lb.... I did resolve my situation and got everything I sent him back. We had done a trade parts for parts.

Actually I scared the wits out of the guy so badly, he came openly apologized on the Evga forums before they banned him, and shipped my stuff back to me overnight saturday delivery from California to Chicago.

If you get enough evidence backing your claims, this WILL get resolved. I am not ttrying to boast, just hoping that some of the things I did, will help you guys in either getting your money back, or getting this guy properly handled.

Also the label on the box I received was to a ups store. However if you have this guys full name, Google is your friend.

Search white pages listings, myspace, facebook, xfire, and as many other sites as possible. Also search for his username on photobucket, or whereever the initial pictures were hosted from, if anyone still has that information.

I was able to link the guy that scammed me to 4 usernames on Evga, all of which had attempted to sell the same items. Also check craigslist in his area to see if he has these items listed there also.

Hopefully you guys get this guy! Good Luck!

Your bank is the best weapon against this guy. According to my bank they are doing a chargeback (yes I used debit) and they and their infinite amount of laywers are going after the scumbag. No matter what type of payment you used through paypal, contact your banks fraud department.

good info , thanks ,


So using bank's debit through Paypal is the safe way to go from what I have gathered in this thread.

How do you get your money back then ?

 

[erocker]

The bank credits my account with the money then they go after maudio3 using the information from paypal. While we do not have access to maudio3's bank information, there is no doubt that banks do!

haha he is seriously f*****d.

In this economy I doubt any bank will let even 1 $ go to waste ! maudio3 found a wrong time to scam ! LOL !

 

[horizon2600]

Anybody else who payed through PayPal with a linked Bank Account? Any updates?

 

[thirdshiftdj]

I've been talking to him in emails. W/ the help of someone, he should be going down pretty soon. Anyone try the aqaurium store?
Supposedly my card is still good and he snipped the wires for the fan mod to keep them full on. The glue on the heatsink was for a 120mm fan for more cooling
edit:
Heres one of the pics he took down from CVRforums. When he first found out we were on to him. Seems as though he has most of the parts he lists. I can see the Geil ram,Dtek,680,psu and the 8800gtx. Let me know if you guys want the pics for evidence so you can add it on to your claim w/ the FBI

I don't remember seeing pics for the 28 HannsG or the Viewsonic.

Yes i do, everything is going out 2 at a time since paypal frooze my account and is holding money and making my account negative as well.

 

[jcgamo88]

Been 2 weeks since he said he shipped the Geil Ram to me, No contact form him, no response to paypal dispute, and no contact from any law agencies. Also bank is powerless because paypal is linked to savings account rather than any card.
He also asked for everyone's address for shipping earlier in the thread, which I sent him even though paypal would ahve given that info.

 

[thirdshiftdj]

what did you purchase?

 

[jcgamo88]

the Geil Ram

 

[erocker]

I bought the 28" Viewsonic Monitor that apparently doesn't exist. Tomorrow I should get a chargeback from the bank for it. jcgamo, has PayPal judged in your favor yet? When they do, let your bank's fraud department know and perhaps they CAN do something about it.

Claim won't end until the 19th unfortunately =\

 

[thirdshiftdj]

Erocker have you talked to him? I'll ask if he's sent that out yet. Maybe I should ask him for pics too. I emailed him telling me whose stuff he's going to send out so I can relay back here.

 

[erocker]

Nah, the only communication I get from him is failed attempts and lies. I'm done trying to communicate with him. I'll let the authorites do that from here on out.

 

[thirdshiftdj]

Well we should be getting some more info on him soon.
