He should be banned, and also call your CC!

What doesnt make sense to me is that if someone gets cheated by someone on the forum, why havent the people that were cheated posted this on the iTrader of the offender? This person has no negatives at all. Isnt that what that system is for?

Isn't it why we have the sale forum in this community for members. To buy and sell bmw stuff according to our needs. If one has money, that doesn't mean you have to spend it all

Got an email from him late in the night that he will refund my money. I am waiting to get it back. I have contacted my bank and told them about the transaction.

CorrectoMan · 09-16-2012, 08:13 AM

Sounds like he got 3 interest-free loans.

don't wait. Dispute the charges with your CC company, have them refund you.

If you ever get refunded, great, and if you do, just write a check to your CC company.

I did it yesterday evening after hearing from you all. I wanted to alert other members on this forum regarding this scam. Hope the mods see this thread. Thanks to everyone here.

No, it does not. So amusingly sad for for keik to claim otherwise.

Really?

Titanium Silver · 09-16-2012, 01:47 PM

Weak shit. Sorry you got scammed by this dude. Hate to say it, but support small biz. If you can, pick up parts from a shop next time. Still not cool though. Can a moderator ban this guy?

You were given a link to another incident of being ripped off by this guy with more details and you want to wait and give him the benefit of the doubt?

AlterZgo · 09-17-2012, 12:44 AM

Why don't you guys give him some iTrader feedback? Right now, he has 100% positive ratings.

tibra1 · 09-17-2012, 12:43 PM

He finally got banned..so he wont be scamming anyone else..at least not on this forum

M3Denver · 09-18-2012, 12:30 AM

The simple answer is find out who he knows on here, get there info, take his business name find the asscoiatea business number by searching for it in business classifieds, and better business bureau, lodge complaint to BBB, and if you dont get what you should get then tell the police... and if it is mailed with false mail tracking then thats mail fraud which you can get the FBI and USPS involved. The police can find out who he is and where he is throug his website info and who is hosting it etc.

Lots of ways to get his info ! and get what you deserve.
