Another scam from this dude. There have been many posts against this guy and his shady practices. He's a scumbag. You can do a forum search for "import angels" and see the other scams he's pulled.

Sorry to hear he scammed you. Hopefully the word will get out and he'll get whats coming to him. Here's a FS ad of his a while back here on NICO.

IMPORT ANGELS

It doesn't fix your situation but it's an interesting read as Greg rips him a new one.

I said my piece in the other thread.

I hate to see what happened to the buyer, but I'm also amazed that anyone could fall for Alex's bullcrap.

It all boils down to doing your homework.

There is no slipping in doing homework, either you do it or you dont.
I am still unsure as to why someone would buy a car without a title to it.

GL with parting it out to recover the cash!

I meant as in I didn't do my homework, I slipped, didn't do it. I will not have to part that car, I can get it titled, I just want my $1,500 back.

We're pretty good at ruining peoples' reputations when they've stolen from someone in the Nissan enthusiast community.

However, as long as people keep frequenting sites that don't aggressively ban, pursue and harass scammers, they're gonna keep doing what they do.

Alex has issued me a partial refund of $500. The remainder is $1,000. He answers my texts and calls and is handling things properly as of now.
