Default Possible Scammer Alert in San Antonio - Tim Alonzo - SaTownTegGSR

I dont want to do this, But I have PM'd this guy like 20 times, called him 4 times, and e-mailed him..

I bought a broken GSR trans off him, we settled the deal on september 7th. I sent him a money order, as he requested on Monday September 13th via priority mail. The amount was $250.00..

According to delivery confirmation, he received the MO on September 15th. That day I pm'd him to make sure he got it. No response.

The next day I pm'd him again. No response.

I know playa's take some time to get around to things, and I have no problem with that. But fast foward to this week, and I have PM'd him a bunch of times, with no response at all.

I called him on the phone number he gave me 4 times in the past 2 days, and always get voicemail. I left him messages, and no replies. I e-mailed him on his e-mail listed with HT yesterday.

Today I called my bank to see if my MO was cashed, and indeed it was. Yesterday, the 20th. When I started calling his phone.

This afternoon I called him and told him I was going to post a scammer thread. Thats what I am doing. It has been 7 days since he got my money and I havent heard a peep from him, no replis, fone calls, no tracking ##. He is ignoring my PM's and E-mails.

This is a HUGE bummer for me, because I needed that gearbox for the Lake Superior Pro Rally (read my sig) next month, If I am being scammed, I dont know if I have the $$ to buy another one in time..

Here is his information. IF he contacts me and explains what's up, I have no problems deleting this thread. But right now I think I am scammed, and am very pissed off.

His info:

Tim Alonzo
9646 Silver Moon
San Antonio, TX
78254

His phone number

210-771-1520


Anyone from texas know this guy?

No one in San Antonio wants to give this fella a call for me? He seems to be ignoring calls from my area code.

Bump. Someone from San Antonio has to know this guy. I cant get ahold of him, he is ignoring all my calls and e-mails. I want my gearbox! Or my money back.

I called the police today, but someone here has to know who he is.

He lives at 9646 Silver Moon, his car is posted above.

Here is a map..
