I got scammed by this guy for $130! Here is the story:

I was doing a engine build and I had a crank that had spun a bearing. Instead of re-using my old crank, I desided to buy one from DA3DC2, he said his crank ws in good shape. I sent him the money through PayPal within minutes of getting his info, now, 3/12/10, 13 weeks later still NO crank. He claims he sent me the tracking #, but he never did. I repeatedly asked him for the tracking # in his posts, he keeps refusing to give it to me. SCAMMER!!!!!

Here is the PM's we exchanged:

Him:

If he did ship it and the carrier (he will not tell me who he shipped it through) lost the package, then give me the damn tracking # and I will take care of it. If you scammed me, I want the money back!

I am a reasonable guy, I know life gets tough sometimes, but scammers and theives **** me off! There should be capital panishment for that!

 

never send money as a gift! u have no way of getting your money back!

 

^^^very true

 

If it makes you feel any better, I've lost $1250 total through PP. Lesson: Screw their policy to use a bank account. Don't even use their Paycrap credit card, use yours. Don't send as gift, ever.

Anytime you get scammed, dispute with PP. If they don't help, dispute with the Credit Card company and you'll get $ back.

So think of it as a $150 lesson. I paid $1250. So you got a better deal. Cheers.

 

Ouch!! Yeah, I guess that makes me feel a little better, but damn bro that sucks! I just wish I could confront him face to face and see what kind of coward he is.

 

now do yall belive me bump
