Default I HAVE BEEN SCAMMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(GoCivicGo)

Jason Payne
259 Sidney Street Apt B
K8V 2T5
613-849-9016

Trenton Ontario Canada


Back in August I contacted Jason about an 88si trans he had posted for sale. We quickly negotiated a deal and he was paid in full($230.00 US)including shipping via PayPal. He said he would ship it within days. Well days passed and nothing.

(9/17/2003)After contacting him he gave me some excuse about the shipping container needed and that he had to build a crate to ship it. I was understanding to the situation and gave him a few more days.

(9/23/2003)He replies and tells me that his Girlfriends dad just died and that he had not had time. But he promised to have it shipped by the end of the month. Again I am understanding to the situation. I'm sure I would drop everything for my girl if her dad died.

(10/8/2003) After numerous e-mails he finally replies and says he need my address(which I had already given him) So He could ship the tranny to me.

--------------------Days with no tranny and no notifications----------------------------

(10/16/2003) I had sent Jason an e-mail asking when I could expect my tranny, and that it was ridiculous that it was taking him so long. He replied with an aggressively worded e-mail claiming that it had taken a month for my paypal go through. And that his girl had left him and cleaned him out aswell as his bank account. (a sad situation, but this is business and should not affect me) He claimed he was trying to borrow money from family and friends to get it shipped. I'm losing patience but I am still polite. After all the guy has my money and the tranny. If he wants he could just blow me off and I will have nothing.

(10/28/2003) E-mails me telling me he has started a new job and is working up the money to ship.

(11/20/2003) After almost a month with no reply he e-mails me saying he has no place to live and is *scrounging* up money to ship the tranny.

(12/14/2003) Says he almost has the money to ship the tranny but is so busy because of the holidays. But reassures me it will be shipped soon.

----------------------------Nothing to this day(1/20/2004)-------------------------------

Edit:
(1/21/2004)Recieved and e-mail saying," OK , i just started a job a week ago. I get paid on the 30th of january . IT
will be shipped the first week of february aight??"




Sorry for the long post
Cliff notes:
-Made a deal back in August with Jason Payne aka GoCivicGo for an Si Transmission
-Paid in full $230.00 US shipping included (big mistake)
-For 5 Months Seller has been giving me excuses and has not shipped said transmission


Jason I hate to do this, but until you prove me wrong to are a Scammer. Please reply if you read this. Once things are settled I will delete this thread

"claiming that it had taken a month for my paypal go through"

Paypal is instintanious, as soon as you send a payment, paypal holds the credit from your card (or deducts from checking acount) until the end of the month when you pay it on your bill.

Just like every other other normal transaction. This is a clue (aside from the others) the guy is trying to bust your *****

Tuff break, hope everything works out

5 months, he has your money and your tranny, and still only excuses ?
I would contact a lawyer IMMEDIATELY, and initiate a FRAUD process a.s.a.p. It doesnt matter if he has problems, personal issues, or believes in his own God. You are entitled to the tranny, or your money back, simple as that.

For crying out loud, I had a lawyer contact the shop where MY OWN friend works in and work up a private contract between me and the shop, because they hadnt paid the loan for my RX7 (which I had sold by then) for about 4 months. Dont play around with these things......

I have had an experience with this guy, I will try to find the post to save my typing. I actually met him, it is not surprising that you got scammed.

That blows...sorry dude

Also...IMHO a 16 year old tranny is NOT worth 230 shipped...thats a ******* ripoff...you can find 5 year old hydro D-series EX trannies for less than that

If you paid thru paypal can't you just make a non-shipment claim with them and get most or all of your money back?
