Well i was browsing through ebay and typed in b18c5 engine and came up with this. Another auction where a person is trying to scam buyers by misleading them. There was a similiar post about this on team-integra.net but luckly we were able to send emails to the buyers and had them cancel their bids. This time the auction IDs are private and there is no way to contact them. Someone is going to get ripped off... This is Sad......

I also posted this on Team-integra.net. You guys were probably outbidding eachother. Glad we can put a stop to a scammer and saved someone from being scammed $2000. If you have a account at ti you can read the thread.

The only thing that looks shady is the tranny and the ECU pic are the same in this auction and in his GSR auction. Is this guy notorious for scamming or am I missing something?

 

Keep in mind it never said engine for sale.. It says *Pictures*

 

REPORT TO EBAY!!

 

Get an ebay account and bid on it at the last minute and put $8000 on it so he has to pay for the Ebay fee.

 

I would never buy a motor from someone off ebay especially someone with ZERO feedback.. Someones gonna get fucked..

 

bidders should read more carefully.

 

You guys all get where im going with this right?? See how easily you guys were deceived to believe it was the actual motor that was for sale when in the auction it says *pictures* The winner is going to be so pissed off when he bought 3 pictures of a b18c5 motor for $1,775.

 

Thats not his only scam, he has a GSR and a H22 that have the same thing.

What a loser

 

man, that is just wrong

 

Had me fooled. I reported it but I'm not sure they can do anything.

 

holllly ****. what a ******* *****... ebay is full of scamers

 

yulp, look at his 0 feedback and the times he started his auction at. Looks like he's trying to make some quick cash.

 

This is beyond wrong.....

He made it a private auction, so you can't even warn the poor people bidding!

 

I agree someone should bid on it and make him pay the fees

 

damn, thats pretty tricky. i had to read it 4 times to get what you guys were saying

2 bidders have to do it, since no matter what you bid, the final bid is the minimum amount (accounting for the bid increment) over the high bid; so, one person would have to bid like $7999, and another would have to bid higher. sounds like a plan, but then technically under ebay's user agreement you'll have to pay up, so don't do this with your personal account, as the potential scammer can legitimately post negative feedback for you. what people should really do is get his address and visit him... . that way, they can take their own pictures (of him, his car, license plate, etc.) and post them with his address (or offer to sell them back to him).

 

thas jacked man i seen that earlier today and i thought that was to good to be true what a Jacka**, those innocent people are going to get screwed....

Very true!

 

I just posted a thread in the Ebay Community forum about this. Hopefully some action will be taken soon.
