Bounty on person that ripped me off in ATL!

[JayPat83]

paid him $5000, gave me back maybe a $1000 in parts. haven't heard from him in 4 1/2 months!

[jdmfreak]

That sucks man. How much is his head worth? Maybe Ill dust off th ol' PSG1 sniper rifle. j/k

[HongKongChick]

4 and a half months? why waited so long?!

[Touchdown038]

Little more information man. Tell us about what you paid for and stuff like that.

[9095240SXDUCK]

I am in ATL.Yeah Alittle more info!

[andrave]

um, press charges? its more efficient than doing **** here. If you paid via mail, start a fraud investigation. call the police department in his town, file a complaint. hire a lawyer and file a suit against him. or do it yourself if you are that kind of guy. damn I want a glazed donut.

4 and a half months? why waited so long?!

when you consider that it has taken a year to get my replacement wheel. 4 months is not that bad. I think it is time to move on to the legal phase of this issue though. Have the cops hunt this guy down.

[JayPat83]

i'll give half of whatever i get from him to whomever helps me get my money back. the co. was inc. so i can't go after him he says and the co. didn't have any assets and declared and went bankrupt.(sp) owes me about $4000 and he says i can't get any of it back.

[andrave]

get the business license, find out what kind of organization it was, certain types you can pursue the individual, certain types the liability ends at the company's assets. You may still have the right to sue him to pursue your money...if I were you and you are willing to give half of what you recover up, you might as well find a decent lawyer.at the very least you should get a free consultation.also, you can go to anywho.com and get his credit history and all that if you want.

[JayPat83]

well everyone now knows this guy is a total creep. he has no money anymore, he pawned everything away, was living off the money people gave him for projects and i just happened to be one of the unlucky suckers that were drawn in. i guess i'll just have to off him!

[MaineExport]

Even if his business was incorporated... chances are if he was stupid enough to run himself out of business... then he was stupid enough to screw up the incorporation process at SOME point during his business's life.

There are a TON of things this guy could have done wrong that will permit you to go beyond the corporate liability protection. This will allow you to seek a remedy from his personal assets.

[JayPat83]

he has no assets and you know whats funny? since i started this thread he emailed me!?!

[JayPat83]

.........

[jdmfreak]

What did you order from him?

[nametakennow]

Where in the ATL area? He's goin' down!

In all seriousness, get the business bureau info on him and find somewhere that he screwed up and get him on it. $4g's ain't pocket change.

front mount, t3/t4, mani, piping, bov, downpipe, safc, turbo timer, egt, a/f, oil temp, all i got was boost gauge, injectors, clutch, skyline headlights and steering wheel, and gauge pod. he even told me that he used two of my parts and another persons car! the guy that has them is part of this forum but he is the second owner so it isn't his fault.

[aznromeox]

I would contact this guy first and let him know that this is illegal. Weather it was lost in business or not it was in his possesion. Let him know he better come up with the money or else charges will be pressed. I don't know if you can consider this stolen property and charge him with a felony. But here in washington if it wasn't done through a business type of affair then anything over $500 in value is a felony.

Just some ideas. Hope you get your stuff back. Don't be so mellow about it and let him know whats going to happen if he doesn't get your old **** back and your money.

Are you not able t physically find him or is he not calling you back?
