Anyone got any information on Jeremy Boddy? Seems like he is taking peoples money including my money telling them he can get them any car they want of of used car trader. I sent him a couple thousands to get me a vehicle and known he does not return calls or emails. Unlike some people who get scamed Im not just going to say oh well and walk away, seems he has done this before and I will take him down. If anyone has any information about other scaming operations or other company names he has worked under it will help me out alot.

Thanks Black ops

He's a clown.

Why is that with all the internet scams that happen these days, people don't research someone they are buying from before giving them their money?

I got scammed once back in 2003 and lost about $800. Luckily, the guy that scammed me got caught because other people he scammed contacted his local PD and an investigation was started. I recouped all my money over 5 months.

But...ever since then, I am super critical of buying from people online and I use the net to find info on the person/persons before I commit, and I take a few weeks to do so.

Jeremy has a very colorful past with NICO as I was in contact with him over Skyline importation, but he ended up being someone who wasn't as knowledgeble as he wanted others to believe.

We caught on to him early enough before things got bad and one of his previous companies, DriftTuners, went belly up.

Keep the word out on this guy, because apparently he hasn't stopped what he is doing. If this guy is taking peoples money, he needs to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. There is enough info about him on the internet to build a pretty decent case, too. His name pops up from time to time here on NICO so you know he isn't being to stealthy about what he's doing.

Jeremy, if you somehow come across this, let it be known that your "business" practices are going to attract the wrong attention and you could end up in a bad way. Be prepared for any repercussions that may come your way, because you deserve it.

I'm for sure a dumb a** for getting ripped off by this guy( Jeremy Boddy). I'm now into this POS for over $13,000. I have a report on ripoffreport.com. He sure can talk a good game. I now have a lawyer who is working on getting my money back. I have also been contacted by 2 others who are in the same boat as I am. Jeremy playes your best friend up till the point you give him money then it's good bye.... He no longer replies to e mails or phone calls and if you by chance you somehow get a e mail from him it is nothing but BS and excuses as to where your money went. He is currently being investigated for fraud and his accounts are all frozen. If anyone has sent him money good luck getting it back. There is a list of people who have filed with the courts, and the money you sent will be given out in the order the courts deem necessary. He walks around Peterborough like a high roller who has nothing and has everyone breathing down his neck for money. He has been to financial lenders over and over again and they will give him nothing. His gig is up but his BS sites are still up and running. If anyone would like to reply to this Email or contact me personally my e mail is [email protected]. I will help you out with all information I have on this guy and add your name to the list my lawyer has for criminal chrages that he is going to try and have laid.

Thanks,Army guy Nova Scotia

So you gave $2,000 and expected a car? Anyone would know that you have to pay for a car/product in full. Would you go on ebay and bid on a product then pay part of what is required to receive the product? Use you head.

Well let me tell you this. Had the RCMP and local police contact me about things online and was gladly to show proof/documents of cars delivered. Who is the real person to worry about? Sean Morris the guy who is all looking out for you all, ha he is the one that is trying to prevent cars from being imported by saying it can’t be done (zer...30214). Look at the recent post on his website. Maybe he would be more effective trying to help people who have the cars already imported instead of tell the Government who the owners are so there car gets seized, leave the people alone if they get the car in - so be it, they’re enjoying their right to spend their hard earned money the way they see fit. What you can't think for yourself? Ask yourself why is Drift Tuner's website still up after all this debate online and what about Kaizo industries (Daryl an ex-cop at that) a well known liked company got shut down. Think about it. We do things legaly at DT, simple as that. Sean always talk about the OBDII system, lol dose the Motorex cars have them? No! So why do they not violate the Clean Air Act? It’s not about emissions.

Read my post here that I posted on Sean's website100% absolutely correct! You cannot register a JDM in Canada without the Form 1 and export/import documents and you can’t get a notarized Form 1 without the customs inspection which is done at the time the vehicle hits port in Canada and done before the car is released to us for which this inspection includes matching the export documentation issued by the Japanese Government as a preventative measure to crack down on stolen vehicles with the manufacture label and checking the VIN plate and firewall. Once the car has been inspected and a Form 1 is issued then that’s when our broker (A & A custom Brokers) clears the car by paying the taxes and inspection cost along with other fees then in return our broker bills us then we book the car for shipping to the customer via Searail. You cannot fake the export documentation, if you have ever seen one it’s as advanced as our money with watermarks which can’t be reproduced, this is issued by the Japanese Government. You can’t fake the inspection, at the time the vehicle is being inspected it’s done where there is no public access to the vehicle in fact it’s not considered or deemed a Canadian vehicle until after the inspection has passed. Also you can’t fake a “numbered” notarized Form 1 issued by Transport Canada which this form is recorded with the Canadian Government by its form number for purpose of Canadian import statistics, this form is needed to present to your local MTO office to register the car to get the title and plates. Also yes it is possible to import a newer than 15 year car into Canada and most people including most importers/import companies don’t know that. What makes us/Drift Tuners different is we do a lot of research “not online, and not with misleading forums” but with Transport Canada directly by phone and we challenge Transport Canada, keyword is “Rule” not “Law”. You will notice when dealing with Transport Canada they never refer to their policies as law but as rule.

Continued…The 15 year rule and the U.S. 25 year rule is a joke and has nothing to do with public safety, it’s simply economics and corporate greed and as long as you recognize and use common sense that newer vehicles are proven to be more safe then 15 year old or 25 year old vehicles not just for the public but for emissions, come on, we in North America are not mass producing old auto technology in 2009, of course not. It’s clearly common sense that newer cars should be imported not older ones if public safety was really the truth behind the Federal Government’s policies. As long as you recognize the politics behind Transport Canada’s policies you have good fire power to challenge that policy, policies are made to be changed and/or make exceptions of, that’s why they’re called policies. Also Sean there is a law in the U.S. where you can get an attorney to file under consumer rights to bring any year or make of vehicle into the U.S. from any Country legally without the need of meeting the NHTSA standards, it’s not that you have to prove the car safe it’s that the Government has to prove it’s not. Do some research on that. What is needed is to get a non-profit organization started to petition the U.S. Government on the import regulations. Let the individual States determine what can be on their roads and get the American Feds off their high horse. If the Government was interested in getting real educated stats then take a look at Florida vs California how much more are the emission levels in Florida vs California along with the road safety stats with RHD cars? The fact is Japan have higher emission standards than any other Country brining to my point that having an R34 with the RB motor in the state California is not really in violation of the Clean air Act, it’s a farce, the EPA deliberately does not include the engine code in the emissions software, why? Because doing that would go against there own policy of keeping the auto market local which includes parts and motors, has nothing to do with emissions. The OBDII requirement is NOT need for emission purposes, how can I say that?? Simple, my imported R32 with the RB motor puts out less emissions then my local purchased 2003 350z, tested and proven on the Ontario emissions sheet. So yes the RB motor is not an emission issue at all people, it’s simply a scam of your Government for deliberately leaving the RB engine code out of the emissions software to prevent a foreign market, only to benefit the auto makers. Therefore the standards/policies of the EPA are nothing but the pockets of the auto makers.

If you think Sean morris is doing you a favor, ok so how has he done that? by exposing that you have a so called illegal car? He thinks every imported car is illegal and he has no problem rating you out so your car gets seized. Just remember every Import company he exposes for so called scam, he threatens you and your investment, paper trail is a b**** so ya if you have a Skyline or any JDM and Sean exposes the company that imported it because it's so called illegal then watch out the authorities will be knocking at your door because Sean directed them there.

To add.... So you come on here to discredit Drift Tuners because you gave $2,000 on the hopes to receive a car shipped from the other side of the world. Pay for the product then you will receive it. We once received 1 cent via pypal, yes 1 penny then the guy filed a claim stating he didn't receive a car. umm duh. Email your name, info and purchase invoice to me via Drift Tuners and i will be glad to refund you your $2,000, go to any import company and they will laugh at you, why should we put our money out for a product that you want, dose ebay do that? dose any company do that? please tell me because they will have my business. Pay and you will receive. No importer will ever agree to import a car with $2,000 down.

You're a moron, Jeremy.

Quit trying to distract people with your rantings about Sean.

YOU took money and didn't deliver. YOU misled people. YOU claimed to be able to do things tyhat you can't do. YOU got in over your head.

All fact. Indisputable.

Now, STFU and figure out how to straighten out your mess.

8000 or 14000, USD or Canadian it matters but what is more important is if they gave you money for a car and didn't receive and they want their money back so give it back move on and don't argue about it.

Sean isn't doing anything wrong. If you say your stuff is legal be right or don't advertise it as legal, whats wrong with that. Only criminals would be bothered with such statements.

Yes, you moron. It's called INVENTORY.

Stores buy things, mark them up, and sell them at a profit.

Let me ask YOU (and all your shady wannabe importer buddies) a question:

Why would someone pay IN FULL for a car they haven't seen? Your flimsy "guarantee" is written to favor YOU, not the customer.

They have NO recourse if you misrepresent the car.

They have NO recourse if the car is damaged in transit.

They have NO recourse if you bail and try to sell your business.

You're either dumber than you look, or you just don't think anyone will figure out your scam.

There seems to be a large number of unhappy Clients of drift-tuners and Jeremy Boddy on your web blog. It is probably not the place for me leave my message but litigating against Contractors and Retailers is my speciality as a legal practitioner and I certainly dislike people being taken advantage of.

I have had many calls from parties unhappy with their dealings with drift-tuners and who wish to recover their money.

I re-iterate your Moderators comments, investigate anyone you deal with before you send the money as it's harder to get it back if your not happy with the transaction.

I have also been taken by Jeremy, I sent him funds over a year ago, he paid back a very minor amount but still a large sum remains unpaid. If there is some way we can organize a class action suit and make sure this guy spends the rest of his life behind bars I would love to be in on it. Please contact me at [email protected] lets get everyone together and lets take this guy down once and for all.

Never heard about this Pat...I'm amazed actually. I was assuming your current ride may have been purchased through him and was actually going to message you to ask if it was...cause this seems as shady as can possibly be.

OK as borded of this as I am I will reply to his BS once more. Everyone. I am currently working with Ted Cairns (Lawyer from Peterborough) who is handling my claim. I will be posting all e mails, court claims, bank drafts, and anyhting esle I have to prove this guy is a fraud ASAP. I was informed by my lawyer that I can give all this info out when the claim is over with the courts. He trys to destract people with useless information ie.......He(Being me apparently) says $13,000 on one page and $8000 on another. HE(me again) LIES!

OK for anyone who wants some details to my problem.......I gave s*** He@d $13,400 for a car on 11 May 2009. He paid the dealer in Japan approx $5000 of my money......just enough to put him under $10,000, the max allowed to put it into small claims court. Which brings us to the approx $8000.....see where I'm going with this. Wow! sorry to anyone who was convinced that JEREMY BODDY was not a liar and that myself and the other 20 or so people who he ripped of are all just a bunch of nuts.

I was informed by another lawyer that this happens all the time and that scammers do this to avoid jail and that most people won't spend the extra cash to chase the money they lost. The dealer in Japan began demanding that I pay them the remainder of what I owed. I tried to calling Jeremy and his phone number no longer worked and I did what anyone would do....CALL the POLICE. The Police informed me that this is considered a civil suit and that there was nothing they could do about it....WTF I got fukn pissed that they could not and would not do s***. I hired a lawyer to take this matter to court......because it is a CIVIL suit. When it happens to more than one person it's considered a criminal offense. The more people that contact my lawyer the better. I have been speaking with others and they are currently speaking with Ted with there situations. Any others feel free to e mail me and I'll fill yopu in on everthing.

In the meantime Jeremy........keep trying to plead your case to those who don't give a s***.

Just a quick follow up to anyone that may be interested, Myself and Jeremy have finally worked things out. I hope that this is perhaps some kind of turning point and everyone else will soon have the same relief and satisfaction I am currently experiencing. Ultimately I'm an understanding guy and I realize that s*** happens, Best of luck to everyone getting things settled.

I don't know if Jeremy has turned a new leaf or not. My son was recently ripped off by this character for $14,600!! Needless to say, he took out a bank loan and now has to pay that back and has no car. Of course Jeremy has promised lots of things such as he is waiting for "the dealer" to refund him the money, yet in his early emails he stated the car was owned by his company...so, why is there a dealer involved? Wouldn't that make his company the dealer? He's not very good at keeping his story straight. He told me the reason my son lost the car was because the bank took 60 days to clear their own bank check....weird, eh! Then he tells my son that it was because he changed the shipping address and that it would take longer....and yes, I wanted to slap my son upside the head for NOT doing his homework. Just wanted to let ya'll know that Jeremy is still out there and still ripping people off!!

No new leaf for Boddy, there is a post on Fresh Alloy titled DT in the Skyline section. Anyone thinking of wasting time and or money on him should do some more research.

He has been trying to sell cars again recently, every one of the cars he has recently listed on ebay has miraculously been taken down :D

Everyone should steer as far away from Drift Tuners, Nextlevel, etc.. delcoreglobal.com, this is his latest front.
