This way he can argue that he never intended to scam anyone, he just found himself in a bad spot and is trying to make good. This could raise reasonable doubt as to his intentions which would have to be proven in order to get a criminal conviction.

No intent to scam = civil suitIntent to scam = civil and criminal

Obviously, the guy makes a profession of scamming people. This, or he is scared and has been speaking to a lawyer.
But my good sir, he made one fatal mistake. His dealings on Z ilvia are not only selling. His spending habits would suggest that he has more than enough to pay everyone back, but he would be at loss for what he wants, not needs... All this on public forums.

d!ck, the money you got was the shipping right? What's being done about the seats?

Well then this problem wouldn't exist my friend . Also he probably doesn't own most of the crap he's trying to slang.

wow. i just read all 13 pages (yeah i know, being laid off of work leaves PLENTY of down time lol) Hope everyone gets thier stuff taken care of, this dude is a douche-galore! so d!ck got his $80 but what's goin on with the seats? Ya know, it really sucks to see stuff like this happen man. We all sign up on these forums to meet people, learn about our cars, make new friends, and sometimes get cut a good deal... then losers like this guy come and take advantage of someone just to turn a buck. F*** that man! I havent dealt really with anyone here yet, but i like to give people the benefit of the doubt most of the time, and people like "Alec" are making it harder and harder for anyone to trust people online. I really hope this guy gets taken down. Whether it will happen or not, who knows? But he certainly deserves something. I hope he feels really good about screwing people over, because someday he's going to need someone to help him out and hopefully they remember all of this crap and brush him to the side like he likes to do to others.

Good luck with your money/parts guys. Hope this all gets figured out. I feel bad that you had to go through all this stuff when we should all be playing for the same team. Well anyway, like i said good luck guys.

TTT --- for bringing scammers to an end!

There's no reason to wait. He has given more than sufficient evidence that he will not pay you or send your stuff for at least 6 months and then it will only be about a 4th of what he owes you, if that.

Yes he is. I just got linked to this thread by a friend. I didn't know any of this was happening. I am requesting a full payment now.

**** I left this game for a while and it seems to be filled with a lot of dirtbags now.

And he STILL hasn't been banned?

That's complicity, pure and simple. Either you OPPOSE thievery or you SUPPORT it... It's clear which side they're on.

i believe he is less likely to screw people on Z ilvia now that it is the largest forum he isnt banned from.

that also explains why he continually gets good "user rep" bs over there and is protected from people he scammed attempting to get their money back.

smart enough not to **** in his own nest... maybe.

If you get burned (and it's worth it) file a claim against the forum owner and pay the money to have them served - $45 or so. They will have to fly to your location to defend against it or you will get a default judgement. At this point you can assume Alec and the forum are in it together.
