He's a ------- scammer. Anybody who sends him money deserves to get ripped off. Plus, in "his" profile it says "he" is a "she".

Give him a chance, ask for pics he might have a stock pile of turbo ---- who knows? Bad place to start lurking though ;)

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
I came home to a PM from him about Jigga Man jumping all over his ----. I told him not to use the caps or the glowing letters, and I erased the whole "battle" over there. He said he isn't coming back, so...... :-\


And a reminder to all of you buyers and sellers. We do our best at finding all the scammers and ----, but (here I go with the caps :D IN THE END, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR FINDING OUT WHO YOUR DEALING WITH. Just because your classifieds moderator is a pimp doesn't mean you don't have to still watch out for yourselves. 8) ;D

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
Hmmm.....so he(or she?) isn't coming back after being called out for being a scammer? Well if that doesn't have scammer written all over it I don't know what would. I know if someone called me a scammer I would do everything in my power to prove that I am not. Oh well,.......

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
I guess he has a wacked out computer that only types in caps, so that's what the caps was all about.


Again, if someone wants to sell on thier first post, I think it's out of the ordinary, but we really don't have a rule against it. It's up to you to figure out who they are before dealing with them. :P

I've noticed that douche bag the day he signed up. All he did was post in the WTB forum. Its dipshits like him that makes me wish we had a minumum post limit to in the classifides.

That, I think, would be a very good idea. Something like, a minimum of 50 posts or something along those lines.

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
I can get 50 posts in a good night of whoring, so post count isn't that great of an indication. if you combine david faust's 8 names on here he probably had 2k posts, but not many people got their ----.

it comes down to vouches. someone replied to my sig when I said I wanted an LS tranny. He gave me name, address, all kinds of info,but had no vouches, but he had about 200 or something posts, I don't remember. I talked to him on the phone several times, my money order gets to him and I never hear from him again, number changed, never responds to pms or e-mails. I lost $25 in fees getting the money orders back, but at least I got something back.

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
Kyle has a point but most people that want to cause a ---- by being a pick in the classified will not bother to get 50 posts to be a jackass.

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
how can we get that rule enforced? the one about a minimum of 50 post or at least 2 weeks on this site. i mean i know that wont keep them from scamming you but hey if it helps then by all means do it!

87na_rx7 09-20-2004 10:58 PM

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
two weeks would be better... if it was 50 posts doc boost wont beable to sell anything with his neg posts ;D

Re:Who is V8TTMagnumQuest?????
 
We have no rules about the situation. Either way is still easy enough for scammers to get in. The best way is for all of us to call people out or check (as in punk) them when you suspect something. Be nice about it off the bat, but if all of us take it upon ourselves to punk people, we will probably be considered a "tough crowd" for scammers and they'll probably go elsewhere.

Go ahead. If your harsh and you were wrong about them, then your gonna look like an ass, but if your politely keeping new sellers on their toes, than your all good.

"All members should take it upon themselves to check people in classifieds who they suspect may be trying to scam." -your classifieds moderator. ;)
