It's funny, I've been on the phone with AMEX and paypal trying to let them know this is stolen, and they don't even want to listen.

Yup - they screwed us over HARD. Police, FBI, SS wouldnt touch it. Yay.

EDM92 · 09-13-2010, 02:27 PM

Wow, what a scum bag. I would drive to his house and beat him with a pole if he was in my vicinity. Ok, not really, but it's a fun thought to entertain.

Actually thats what D-bags like these need to straighten them out. Just like when your parents would beat you when your young for doing something stupid.

Well, he is asking for stuff to be shipped someplace. You then ship the product, and fly down to the address. Call police when you know the UPS guy is there and await delivery and see who answers to take it.

Gotcha!

I'm pretty sure if you always ship to the billing address you are covered.

bimmermansfl · 09-14-2010, 01:24 AM

that name sounds awfully familiar. I'll let you know what I come up with.

ScheerSpeed · 09-15-2010, 05:25 PM

that sucks

i got screwed with the whole trendix thing back in the day for a set of H&R springs

MrUpscale · 09-19-2010, 02:39 AM

Had 3 fraudulent orders from this same phone number. They all used different cards, e-mail addresses, and billing addresses all with AVS matches. However they all used the SAME shipping address and phone number and all orders were in the $800+ range. Vendors PM me if you have questions or just want to talk strategies for preventing this kind of thing.
