If anyone personally knows this person, can they get in contact with me

[email protected]

I agree'd to purchase this Item of this user

He gave me a Mobile number and an email address

I transferred the money to him Direct Deposit.

The mobile has since been switched off and the email address he provided me, the acutal owner doesn't seem to know anything about selling a PS3

Sorry to hear that mate. I always thought this guy was a bit suspicious. No trader rating & location, and he put up a popular item for sale soon after he opened his account in December '08. I contacted him a couple of times and he seemed dodgy. He probably never really responded to requests for local pick-ups, and perhaps he always told people that he wasn't local (different locations to theirs everytime).

i think he is still in melb, plus he said $650 posted, the games alone are worth that much.

Exactly why I didn't buy it from him, states he is in Melbourne and when I said I would pick it up he said he was interstate and would post it?

11 posts, been a member for no longer than 3 weeks with no trader rating or contact details.. how dodgy do you wanna be?

damn, looks like at least a couple of us got done... I've got a similar story to DJCouGaRs.

unless he speaks up real quick with a good explanation i'll begin the hunt to track him down. I take this kind of thing very personally, as I'm sure most people would.

im in the same boat as the rest of you.. luckily no one fell into his trap and purchased it..

i believe they did.

Guys,

there was a previous scam involving the sale of a PS3 as well.

It was reported to the SAU Admins. Unfortunately, they can't do anything. My advice for people who have deposited money to this scammer to contact the police ASAP. I think it is the same person who has been scamming users from online forums.

Man I f**king hate people like this.

I got done a few months ago from a different website, funnily enough it was for a ps3 also. I'll never do a direct bank transfer to a strangers account again.

I PM'd this guy and he seemed suss from the get go, I wasn't 100% though and I couldn't say "SCAMMER!!!" on his topic, but now I wish i had.

    • Hi Gents, Someone I know (experienced engine builder) built an engine. It had some chinesium rods that came with ARP 2000 bolts. One failed on the dyno, destroyed the whole thing. The only possibilities are: Installation error. Possible, but we should discount it almost 100% because he knows what he's doing. He doesn't discount it that much, because he's being hard on himself. QC/QA problems with ARP products. I'd like to discount this, but I have heard a number of stories about similar failures, and stories of some builders buying 2 sets of everything, x-raying everything, and picking only those bolts that they are completely happy with. This behaviour coming from anecdotal stories of ~1% failure rates. 1% of all rod bolts failing would be about 1000x higher than I would expect to be anywhere near tolerable. If I were ARP I certainly wouldn't even be selling the product if they were dying at that rate (for non-installation error reasons). So, I would prefer to discount that possibility too. Fakes. Specifically, fakes being sold bundled with cheap rods sets from CCP factory B in Shenzen, or wherever the stuff is being made this week. So the question here is, does anyone else have some horror stories that would point to fakes being circulated in this manner?
    • I forget this is an au website, my GTR FS5R30A was 2200 AUD delivered but I did have to go to a warehouse near the port to pick it up myself.
    • Excuse for an epic road trip?  I expect a few people would be thinking of doing that given the price.
    • That's tempting to me, but I don't know how to not f**k you around, given I'm interstate.
    • I've got a R33 turbo box I don't need if you're interested. I only ran it for a couple of track days and on the dyno before going sequential. In Melbourne, $1500 if you don't stuff me around.
