Fraud alert.
This and a few other Jackasses are checking the WTB threads and sending out bs. Be on the watch for this. If you email any of these idiots, they come back with a stupid low price and then ask you to send payment via family and friends.

Yep they tried to pull this on me too. Asking 250 for a used s13 churrbo hahahahha

Before I ban the guy, I'm having some fun with him. Just sent this pm:
I see that you just signed up at MiataTurbo, and it looks like you've been trolling the WTB thread and trying to scam my members with low-ball prices on nonexistant parts. Am I totally off-base here, or does your IP address need to be banned? (I hate doing that, because it occasionally affects others users who live nearby you, and we obviously have a lot of other users in the Dallas area, of whom I'm sure at least a few are also using BandCon as their ISP.) Also, in the future, send a message to a moderator and post something in the Front Desk forum when something like this happens. |
What are the usernames of the other people who have done this?
|
I got primeturbo72 and Mari123
|
Thanks.
primeturbo72 appears to be a repeat offender. We banned his last account (ziggy676), and now he's back under a new alias. I sent him a PM asking him very politely to go away, so that I don't have to perma-ban every single VPN he uses, as that occasionally has unfortunate side-effects for legitimate users. I'll be curious to see if he responds, or even shows up again. |
I also received a message from Mari123 - Same schtick.
|
I am like 95% positive you can report PM's and then Admins and such can come permaban fuckers.
|
This thread makes feel good. Reminds me of old days here lol
|
|
Mari123 didn't respond to my very polite email, so he's now permabanned.
|
primeturbo72 hasn't been around in a few days, so I'll give him some time to read the PM I sent him before banishment. Let me know if anyone hears from him again.
|
Primeturbo72 referred me to a man that was extremely sus as well. I 100% believe he's doing it too from the conversations I was having with his referral.
|
Jens Spahn is the name of the health minister of Germany, so fake name on email.
Searching for that email address yields this: https://www.rctech.net/forum/buyer-s...gmail-com.html |
Scamming should be a capital crime.
|
I gave PrimeTurbo a new avatar. I think this will be more fun than a simple ban.

Somewhat related, the other day I saw some loser posting on Fb miata classifieds, and apparently the pictures were taken from legitimate posts on here and m.net and used to scam people on fb.

Got a PM that looks a lot like the scammers everyone else is having but from a different user. Thought I’d throw it here for further inspection... |
