Default SCAMMER/CAR THIEF/PAYPAL FRAUD ALERT - Thong Pham aka "Mr. Tech" from Fresno, CA

Here is the story. I sold my set of Skunk2 Pro1 cams to user "Mr. Tech" for $450, via PayPal. He sent the payment from andysservice@hotmail.com, and everything went through fine, and complete. So I ship out my cams, and as the day he receives it, I receive an email saying that they retracted the payment, due to fraudulent funds. So here I am, assed out $450. He kept in good contact with me while PayPal was investigating the payment, but after the payment was officially retracted from my account, he stopped responding. I never knew I could get scammed as the seller, using PayPal.


UPDATE!!!!

Received a $340 payment via PayPal from Mr. Tech. The payment came from a verified account and provided a confirmed address with seller protection policy eligible. He says he will get me the remaining $100 in a couple of weeks when he gets his next paycheck. This is a start...

This thread has been brought to my attentio and seiously i should have acted on it sooner, paypal DID say the transactions were under investigations and it was part of a "Randomly Screened" transaction. And so their payments which have been already sent and processed were put on hold for a long time (they said up to 10 days) and now after 10 days have decided to return ME the money, which means i received their items, BUT paypal decided to give me a refund which i need to refund them back ASAP. I have already contacted them both and they should hopefully be receiving a refund by the end of tonight. Sorry for any misunderstanding, i'm not a ghost or anything like that, i am still here

i for one know alot about mr thong , more than he would ever know . like where he works , the resturant his parents own , where he lives and what he drives. as well as the crew he rolls with mr phams criminal record. so if he doesnt resolve this soon , IT WILL GET RESOLVED BY OTHER MEANS.

maybe its time for the SoCal crew to wipe the dust of the the knuckle dusters and pay him a visit. It'll get resolved one way or another. To scam someone from the same community is just wrong.

Just an update on my situation...

Mr.Tech has sent me a pending Paypal eCheck refund today. Once this clears within about 3 days, he'll be taken off my black list and I'll rescind my gripes about our transaction.

Thanks for being responsible about this Mr. Tech
