i got jobbed by some c*?k on sidc for a spoiler , again stupid of me a paid by bank transfer and yes you guessed i never received it , this was back last november and the c*?k still send text message to me now to say he is going to refund me

never send as a gift, if your unsure send a little extra to cover there charges , but to be fair if your selling something on here the seller should bear these charges in mind as most things probably get posted the paid via paypal so this should be included in the price

scoobynet you need to sort something to help the honest sellers and buyers on here

anyway back on track

hope you get sorted mate

 

This guy is taking the **** excuse the French but
something needs to be done

 

i hope this gets sorted,i hate the robbin f******,having a bit of hassle like this on ebay at the moment,there are far too many compulsive liers about and i hope it catches up with them! really hope u genuine sn members get to the bottom of this.

 

i believe in karma...
what goes around comes around...
and it comes back twice as bad..

 

i just hate little f**king coward bas**ds that do this sort of s**t hiding behind the safety of a pc screen.

get off your lazy f**king ****, go do a 9-5 like everyone else & earn a honest living.

guess you'd have to be a man to do that though so kinda rules out scumbags like this.

 

they cannot be allowed to get away with this!!!!!

 

I don't know if it's the same guy.

But the man who "sold" me the gauges, his name is Kelvin Bruno.
He joined SN on april 2008.
Nobody knows him ?
Thanks for your help.

 

The chap who brought the ecu
https://www.scoobynet.com/private-sa...ti-4-sale.html
says it was faulty and refunded if it was refunded surely had to be returned to him maybe an address could be found here

 

recieved my refund from him for an apexi.probably only because i didnt put it down as a gift.will make me think twice about buying anything else tho.

 

he didnt send it me he sent me a refund the day after i had payed saying it had been tested and was faulty.
Im guessing it was just to try and get me to send him a gift,i would be very surprised if he even owns a subaru from what ive read on hear since then.

 

Any chance you can get a phone number or and address for this guy?

Interesting to see who checks profiles !

Might be coincidence ? but I would request the mods look into any connections with Weeebell.

 

sure i have seen this name about before, i gonna check the other car sites i am on now to check i think.

 

Hi guys i just read all this and makes my blood boil. I feel guilty if my postage is late, and have driven 150 miles to deliver before FOC. To see someone having the ordasity to take peoples hard earnt cash with no trace of guilt is sickening. Would love to see him on the news at 10.

I tried looking on FB for what it was worth. I also thought it would be a good idea to look at PO30 1YG on google street maps and do a virtual walk through down the road to see if i could spot any impreza's but its not been street mapped yet.

Good luck with this guys, should Karma find him please video it LOL!

 

have to add that i have emailed the addministrators about this, as has coops, and i haven't heard a damn thing from them which is pretty slack. they could have at least posted on here advice about what to do next, or something.

it really is a shame we dont know who this guy is or where he is, otherwise we could give karma a helping hand, and foot, straight in his head

 

Winds me right up this. I have just had to refund someone out of my own pocket because my goods got lost in the post. Hope you get it sorted guys.

 

I've sent about 6-7 emails to admin since joining, never had a single reply!

 

Do the admins have any IP information from when Steve Tease posted?

I got arrested a while back for stealing a bike, I bought it from a chap, who bought it from a chap............................... who stole it at knife point.

Basically the police were less than useless until I presented them with every piece of data I could lay my hands on, printouts of forum posts etc etc etc.

if we could get an IP at least we could trace it a few hops and see roughly where he is, I've got a few contacts within ISPs who could dig a little bit too.

oh, I just noticed I've got like 1 post on this forum too, selling something.

But I'm legit, Alyn at ASP will vouch for me, i'm the lad constantly braking my B4.

 

I have been trying to get hold of the admin team and I think they are a waste of time and space, have had nothing at all, not even a pm saying they would look into it. Can you not get some sort of software that tells you there IP address? We could then trace him down from sites visited or get an area and narrow it down on the electoral roll, maybe even facebook..

 

Its a real shame the forum administrators are taking this seriously. Coming from the VW scene, for over ten years, I was an everyday user on a well known VW forum. When we had similar problems on there with c*** sellers, the administrators bent over backwards to help those who got stung out. Passing on IP address and as much information about the user as possible, informing the police, setting up a BEWARE sticky thread.

What they also did was when you wanted to post a forsale ad, you had to have your location, telephone number, a price and a full name, if it didnt contain all of those then the ad got removed within minutes. Oh and i believe another forum set up that you could do a forsale ad without at least ten off topic posts.

Its doubtful a scoobynet paypal account is feasable with the amount of work that would involve especially if things went wrong in a more legtimate sense. It would require almost constant monitoring and support...lets face it, its a free forum, that aint gonna happen and thats not being negative towards the administrators but in reality it wouldnt work. A bit like communism

Just ask for phone numbers, get complete address, pictures, and never send Paypal as a GIFT unless you know the guy/gal and any question marks, dont purchase. I always facebook an email address of someone im buying from just to check location/picture etc and most of the world has a facebook page now. We all want stuff for cheap, and we all want to sell our old bits, i guess we all just have to be ultra savvy. Ive been stung before, and recently been stung on here for a Walbro fuel pump, it happens and thats unfortunately part of the risk we take.

As for IP address, if you have someone who works for a telecommunications company then the ISP will help big time, but you cant just ring up a broadband operator and say i have this ip address, whose is it? its the whole data protection act....

Really, you need to get as much info from the administrators on his as possible. In there would be some clues...possibly the email address he registered with, then facebook that?

 

As a long time SNer who has bought & sold via SN, I don't like somebody ripping members off as much as the next guy.

I wouldn't pin your hopes on getting an IP address. I can post on SN from the UK yet my traffic can appear from an IP address hundreds of miles away - taking it to an extreme, I could post via Australia yet be sat in London. Also, don't forget that IPs can be dynamically assigned, so there's little you can find out about a user that way.

Mod's aren't allowed to disclose things like IP addresses, emails and other private information from a user profile.

Going through PayPal and the Police would seem to be the best options at present.

 

They are, but only to the Police if asked to do so in the course of a criminal investigation, which only goes to show how important it is that everyone who's been stiffed by this utter w@nker reports the theft/fraud officially.

 

Hi,
You're talking about Steve Tease, but no information about scooby bru ?
He still has a paypal account.
So on monday, I asked him for a refund. A refund he refused on tuesday.
So I sent him an Email on tuesday, but no answer...

 

Lord'ham
You say scooby_pru refused you a refund, so what was his explanation for your goods not arriving? Did he ever give you a tracking number for DHL or whoever?

 

Here are my exchanged PM with him.
It was on April. and since the 9th of April ... NO NEWS !
As I said,on monday he refused the refund, but did not give any reason.

Thanks

 

Lord'ham
Since you say he refused a refund, presumably that must mean he's responding to emails? Or did you just try to request it through Paypal, and get a system-generated response? If he is answering emails, then you should at least be able to ask for a tracking number.

 

tis may help anyone out to track the person

How to Trace an IP Address: 4 steps (with video) - wikiHow

 

not read the hole thread but 100 quid for postage , were the bloody hell was he meant to be posting it to

 

It's not a system-generated response.
It's noticed that he refused the refund.
I've already tried to ask him for news or tracking number,
but he never answered.
On June the 15th he edited the thread and added "sold" on the thread. (2 months after the transaction.
When I saw that I asked him for a tracking number, but he never answered...
