mxs666 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Shout out to all our friends in NC. Y'all know who you are. And here is some friendly advice to everyone. Even with Paypal, if you purchase something of value, use the option to put the charge onto your credit card. The effect is that the charge will go through paypal, but the source of funds with be viza or mastercard or someone like that. Your credit card has THE BEST fraud protection of anyone. If you get ripped off, your credit card co will usually step right in and give you a refund, bc they have insurance for fraud loss and bc they lose hundreds of millions if not billions per year in fraud loss so they are used to paying out. Hope this helps. And for the record, this Edwards putz aside, people in the Z community are among the most friendly and helpful people i have ever dealt with anywhere. I have bought tons of Z parts on the net over the years and have been burned very few time (maybe even never by the classic z guys). Here is to us all.

Titus_RacerX Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 He was boo-hooing the fact that nobody trust him. Poor little guy! I really feel kinda sorry for him. He ain't got no friends! He had the nerve to say this: "L, I have returned home from being gone and found the box with your axles on my porch. I am going to send them to you again- I will email you a new tracking number this afternoon. I never intended to hurt you or anybody else for that matter. I hope you find the axles to be what you are needing and if not, we'll try to fix the problem. OK? Look for another email this afternoon." Well friends the afternoon came and went, no tracking number. I knew he was full of she-ot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 There is a crook in our midst, ripping off Z car parts buyers. He will contact you and offer you what your looking for, then want payment via paypal, or money order, or cashiers check. 99% of the time he will use his real name > Jim Edwards, or James Edwards, from North Carolina. I have personally lost money to him, as one other member here has that I know of. There are tons of posts about him ripping Z guys off, dating back as far as 1993. Read here>> EVERYONE, PLEASE READ THIS > http://tinylink.com/?nzydhaYkzM Mods, please make this a sticky, hoping to save a member the pain of being ripped by this pile of septic matter. Thank You - joel Here is the phat phuck thief from his myspace acc.>> http://www.myspace.com/westiemanjim CLICK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titus_RacerX Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Just how dumb do you have to be to post a MySpace page while everyone you've stolen from is looking for you? http://www.myspace.com/westiemanjim Oh, nevermind. That answered my question. That dude is so fat he ain't got a neck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Someone earlier posted how great the Zcar community is and how there are only one or two of these tools out there... You guys would be surprised at how many of these tools there are, and how many disputes get reported to us in the admin ranks. I'm all for exposing these individuals, as long as the facts support the claims. We've been down this path in the past and found that sometimes (Not saying this case is one) it's miscommunication. Bottom line is to be 110% sure you know what you're buying and who you're buying it from. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeeZ Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I think this is probably enough before our forum gets into some problems. Even scumbags have some rights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators RTz Posted March 25, 2008 Administrators Share Posted March 25, 2008 Guy's Generating awareness is one thing. Taking swings at a pinata is another. Lets keep this dispassionate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titus_RacerX Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Guy's Generating awareness is one thing. Taking swings at a pinata is another. Lets keep this dispassionate. Agreed, Ron. I won't say anything about his mother either. She probably has enough problems. This guy will get what's coming to him in due time. This is a great community!... most of the time.

Titus_RacerX Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Paypal awarded me a win and credit card issued a credit on my account today! Score one for the good guys. But Jim, if you see this, It ain't over until EVERYONE you've stolen from gets repaid. Watch your back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeZ Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Congratulation. I won a contest with a seller once, but because it was under $50 (I think) I got nothing. Been ripped off 3 times before I learned the ropes about buying off ebay, software, s13 seats and an item I can't remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titus_RacerX Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 If you've been a victim of this scumbag, why not let us know? PM ME and tell me about it. I love to go to NC to spend the weekend mountain biking or road riding my bicycle. A side trip to visit our friend Jim... anyone interested. Jim told me he goes mountain biking, it even says so on his myspace page. I know of a mean cliff that if timed properly would look like an accident... guys that fat don't have very good cycling skills... who knows... I know where he lives. Google maps even showed me his run-down shack. Jim, how about it bud? A little mountain bike trip to Tsali? Come on out! Let's see how fat, er... fast you are.

MJLamberson Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I think it would be kinda funny to harass this guys myspace... maybe his mail box? but thats just cause Im immature. On second thought, looks to my like more then enough people have been scammed by this guy to make a case, but their from all over so it wouldnt be reasonable would it?
