Epic Scamming thread

It's become a huge thread and it is full of win.

Cliffs - Kid takes his mom's celica for tons of custom work, racks up a 16k bill and tries to walk off with it. The guy also has a ton of previous and well documented scams all throughout the internet. He talks a lot of smack so it's entertaining.

Pics?

Wow. I only saw a pic of the custom woofer enclosure and that **** looks like some expensive work!!

That thread is quality :popcorn:

[ShitOnWheels]

Holy crap that was a long thread. And apparently much longer before the admins cleaned it up.

Kid has what's coming to him, though, assuming everything the shop says pans out. The shop will probably lose a little bit of money in the deal, but not $16k worth.

Pics?

In the thread there was a link posted of the build. Looked like the whole nine yard which included the car being totally stripped and rebuilt. Turbo setup, paint, suspension, A/V, etc etc. Supposedly the kid supplied most of the parts to be installed so the $$ is mostly labor.

[Jersyboyy]

The shop should keep the car and flaunt it at shows and stuff as their shops show car. Everytime that dirtbag sees the car he'll remember what scamming people gets you.

I'm very curious to see how this turns out.

[jts98z28]

that was hilarious

[sweetbmxrider]

wow i am so tuning in on friday night...wait i'll be drunk. sometime around sunday i will see what happened!

Mark my word, the car will be out of the shop before Friday.

[SupermanX24]

It's people like that, that were better off being swallowed or left on the sheets...I hope he gets what's coming at him.

[Knipps]

Dep of aqricolture.

'tard.

Wow, I just decided to read all of those pages because I was bored....lets just say, my eyes hurt lol. Sweet thread none the less. I can't begin to imagine where Joe Dono is right now and what he is thinking.

Edit: the forum is down for me, I wonder if their servers went down because of all the traffic? Anyone else have a problem viewing the thread?

[Knipps]

yeah, just keep hitting refresh :lol:
It'll come through eventually

[NJ346]

Yea finally. I'll check it later on tonight to see if anything else breaks through. I wanna see if a radio station actually talks about it since some of the users sent it to local stations. I can't believe this kid actually decided to scam someone in his own backyard. That's crazy.

[sweetbmxrider]

i wanted to see more posts by the kid, he is hilarious

[69BirdX]

these posts are so enertaining...........sad people are that dumb but they make my life better

[BurninrubberGT]

lol i was bored too and read it all....its amazing how this kid thought he would get away with it, then make up these BS stories and thinks he will get the car back on friday

last time i checked it was 40 pages long and 400+ current viewers

[jims69camaro]

this kid is all over the place. he tried to buy several 350Zs, one with a credit card - asking the seller to accept a 35k payment from the CC...

people chimed in to say they've lost money, paintball guns, cell phones, an Xbox 360... the list goes on and on... and he's got a criminal record for this very thing. if he gets charges pressed on him, he won't walk away like he did the first time. he's looking at some hard time. and he's such a bifussy that he'll get turned out in a heartbeat.

[ShitOnWheels]

They updated the thread with working pic links on flikr. The link is in the first post. As is his paypal address if anyone wants to donate to lawyer fees.

[NJ Torque]

46 pages....

[NJ346]

46 pages and counting....

Edit: NJ Torque beat me to it!

[BurninrubberGT]

now there 60 pages and its gettin the story is all over their radio stations

[DevilDougWS6]

omg! 74 pages! hahaha

[Knipps]

I got distracted around page 15 when it started getting old and there was a link to a motivational poster thread :lol:

[ShitOnWheels]

Supposedly it made it to the MJ morning show this morning. Dunno if anyone recorded it and hosted it on the site. Haven't been back since it was at page 51 I think.

haha good find. I gotta go back and read that thread. I was on page 103 last time and it's probably up to like 130 pages now.

LMFAO

[DevilDougWS6]

no its only up to 115

[NJ346]

Well it's over 160 pages now and thats after more editing. The shop won't say how much is in the paypal account right now which makes me think that's a little wierd. I know it's over $1100 right now by following the thread.

[DevilDougWS6]

lol, did the kid get his car back yet?

[jims69camaro]

no, and he won't be getting it back, either. +1 shop owner
