OT: Help me check out a person - regarding a scam
Hi!
Im writing this in here, since some of you guys know me from before.
I beg you - please help me.
If any of you guys are located in TX, or somewhere near, I am offering 50USD to the person that helps me out with doing a check on a person for me - regarding a possible scam.
Email me at mailto:tord.forland@broadpark.no if you are interested in helping me out.

Thats what I found out. The name I pay'palled to was Chaley Freeman - Im thinking that might be a son in the household. I tracked the address via paypal. I am unable (dont know why?) to call that number, so I am hoping for your help.
I dont want to cause any problems for him, and if he is legit, thats good, but the second I paid him for the parts, (ITR valvetrain, CTR cams), he stopped responding to my mails. Not a good sign, is it?
His username on HT is: theswarm

I just called the number.
A younger guy answered the phone and said that Charley is not available (sounded kinda stunned someone from HT was calling to speak to him.)
Personally if ti was me and you haven't had any further contact with him and he doesn't keep in touch with you then I think you're getting screwed.
But, that number above Does work, and the kid who answered Did recognize the name Charley and was quick enough to say that he wasn't available to speak.
He asked for my name and info, I just mentioned I saw some inforamtion about him on Honda Tech and that it looks like he is scamming you for those parts.
Good luck,
You should see if you can get someone to stop bye and speak to him, He did sound a bit startled.
We should see if we can get a Bunch of people to call him to solve this.

Hi,
I don't know if you received the e-mail I sent before this one, but I spoke to my friend Charley and his computer crashed on him and he hasn't had any way to contact you as all the information was on his computer. He wanted to apologize for the unexpected delay and he asked me to get your shipping information again so he can send it out to you. Please let me know.
<---
Might be a happy ending to this.

Good luck. I doubt the authorities look too highly on international mail fraud

If you payed with paypal you are entitled to some kind of buyer protection. If you are unable to contact this seller, file a claim with paypal or call paypal and see what they recommend. Don't let it go too long, cause after 30 days, paypal won't cover you. Good luck.
Well, Ill try to keep my hopes up.
However - I do have a pending offer from a friend in Austin to pay him a visit. He justed wanted me to pay the 1hr trip for him. I hope it doesn't come to that, but if it does, it wont be pretty.

I have now received confirmation, visual, of the package shipment.
I'd like to thank "theswarm" for getting his friend to contact me, and even tho this story isnt over yet, its seems to be ending well.
