Got a real name with the guy and where he's from? (Or did I miss it in there?) Thanks for the heads up Ed!

 

[FastEddy]

Read the links, its all there.

Thanks for the heads up....I wish folks could just be stand up.

Not to mention the video he has posted a link to here in our aircraft and marine that is on you tube even starts off with "Thanks Matty this ones for you"

I would have to say this scammer is one in the same, as the guy that ripped of Matty D on large scale forums.

I REALLY hate thieves!!!

Sometimes I wish one could just hire a group of junkies and have them beat 7 shades of poop out of assholes like this!
Nothing a baseball bat could not straighten out...

 

[FastEddy]

Its hard to believe a guy would post a video of himself using stolen or in this case not paid for merchandise. Can you say EVIDENCE.

How longs it take to activate a account at the baja forum? I did earlier today (Cuz you can't see the link without being a registered member) and I still havnt gotten the activation email..

 

[hb1111]

i dont know the whole story but why would they send the items before they got the payment?kinda of odd

 

[4u2nv]

I guess he trusted him because he was a fellow "Military man"... Thats alot of trust for a $1400 item..
I still havnt gotten my verification email to that baja forum to actually read that thread and actually see the dudes name and such..

 

[FastEddy]

[SMaxxin]

Thats a shocker! I have read some of his posts and he seemed to be an alright guy....Just goes to show you can never tell.

 

[run2jeepn]

Thanks for the heads ups. Man these guys piss me off. But if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have a Job.

I've updated the first post with the users name, city and state. I've also posted recommended contact info if you've been scammed by this user.

Recon8541 has also been placed on a Perm. Ban - regardless if this user corrects his wrong doing he's not welcome here anymore.
