well man, You asked for my email about the purchase of my DLI, a few days later, i get a scam email about it.

Paypal is doing their investigation, we'll let them make the call about anything immoral or illegal.

same thing happened to me last week. this guy izabran asks about my ohlin flags for sale on monday.
here's what he wrote...

"hey bro...
can i get your email i can't talk on the forums at work... my boy might be intrested in this... he was looking for suspension for auto-x"

then on friday i get this...

"Hey I am interested in buying please login to paypal and send me an invoice so I can send you the funds.

I would like UPS overnight to zip code 11423.

I await PayPal money request with total so I can buy.

Thank You,
Jason"

except that they ****ed up and the subject of the email was aem instead of ohlins. this guy must have so many scams going he can't even keep the **** straight.

****ing dirtbag

ok first of all don't try and act e-thug with me please... rest your self...
i do understand that i asked people about it... and i'm going to ask the kid that i gave all the emails to if he did anything such as spam emails... i honestly don't know the kid... but he seen my evo and said if i know any parts for sale to email it to him... so i asked around about parts... all i honestly have form him is the email that he sent you guys...
i probably should have wrote some kid is looking for parts instead of my boy...
once again i am here answering questions... but i'm bot gonna stick around if people are trying to smear my name... you can check my sales... everyhting is good...
even when i took too long to ship something out i sent the kid back his money cause i had not time to ship out the radiator i believe...

i'm not stating anything that's false... check my posts... i've been here for a while...
what... i waited all this time to scam people o please that's BS... scammers are people no one knows... they just pop outta no where... i got plenty of friends in the evo community... so i have no reason to be doing this...
i'm still trying to get in touch with the kid...evoj to ask wtf is he doing... cause i'm getting scapegoated for his actions...
i was just trying to do him a favor... but i guess it got blasted back in my face...
once again i'm glad the mod's are letting me get time to defend myself... greatly appreciated...

well not really fall but i got suspicious when i raised the price and the guy accepted plus he wanted overnight shipping from HAWAII!! i was thinking either this guys is crazy rich or its a scam.

After i totaled the sale up i obviously new it was a scam because he could have the exact product for much cheaper else where. Besides i never heard of paypal pending a tracking #

but whoever is the scammer must be pretty poor open a real account ill donate a penny to you

ok not my boy it was some random dude that asked me for parts... as i just explained to the mod... i prbably should have phrased it diff when emailing people about it... and should have caught on when he said o just get me a list of parts people are selling... since he didn't tell me exactly what he wanted...

once again i apologize to anyone that got or might have recieved this email... but i did not come here to scam people...

that should have told you right there to not do anything further... i get fake papypal emails from time to time... like o irregualr activity... you click the link and it send you to antoher site... but when you look at teh url it's some weird ish... and it's not even green like the offical site...

plus i make more then enough to attempt to scam people... once again for like the w.e. time... i apologize for haivng asked people for thier emails... and for not catching on sooner that it might have been a scam... cause now this dude is somewhere chilling... and i'm getting attacked for it... also thanks to the mods for not banning me...

well, they haven't banned you because they're still logging your IP's, to be used to verify if the emails came from the same ip address. If theres no link, you have no problems... but if there is
