Wow, it just amazes me how people feel it's justifiable to **** around with peoples money. ilovejdm, imagine if you will, missing a light bill, and having them cut off. You pay up, and they're like "Oh, well get around to it when we can", and two months later you're still sitting in the dark. Or what if you go to the ER, and need some serious surgery, but all the surgeons are busy, so you sit there for 2 months...

There's no excuse, if you intend to be an "E-business" man, I suggest you get your **** together and take care of what's important. Not to mention that you're commiting Wire Fraud: "Wire fraud is a legal concept in the United States Code which provides for enhanced penalty of any criminally fraudulent activity if it is determined that the activity involved electronic communications of any sort, at any phase of the event. As in the case of mail fraud, this statute is often used as a basis for a separate federal prosecution of what would otherwise have been only a violation of a state law.

The crime of wire fraud is codified at 18 U.S.C. § 1343, and reads as follows:

Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, transmits or causes to be transmitted by means of wire, radio, or television communication in interstate or foreign commerce, any writings, signs, signals, pictures, or sounds for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both. If the violation affects a financial institution, such person shall be fined not more than $1,000,000 or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both."

hey greg

we have agreed to try a wire transfer to my bank account

andre has never done one before, so this is new to him. i gave him my info and contacted my bank. they said his bank will have no problems doing so and i have allowed him to deduct the trasnfer fee from what he owes me.

ill iummediately let you know if it works out or if it sours for whatever reason.

thanks so much,

Matt

From: "Matt Lacroix" <[email protected]>To: [email protected]: RE: FW: Receipt for your paymentDate: Thu, 26 Apr 2007 23:19:05 -0400

From: "Matt Lacroix" <[email protected]>To: [email protected]: RE: FW: Receipt for your paymentDate: Fri, 27 Apr 2007 23:22:22 -0400

can you please send me a repsonse letting me know whats going on?



you need to get your priorities staright. school, work, and then getting to the bank for me.



banks are open saturday and i know you dont have school so please try to get this all straightened out.



if i dont hear from yu by tommarow, im also going to be calling, then im posting on nico that we need to take it to the next step with the mods and ceo.



ttyl

....(from andre)k... you say get my priorities straight? I do School and work are my priorities. and one thing I am going to tell you I am seriously stressing everyday with this I have this on my head every second of the day, I cant even study right or work right because Im constantly thinking about this.....I want to get this over and done with asap just like you want. I also cant take this anymore, you threatning me basically everyday, I mean I am tired of this, if you honestly want to do it then do it. Im doing everything I can. But your really not helping by doing this. and another thing, nico has nothing to do with this. so I dont see why you say Iam going to take it to the other step with nico moderators and ceo? our transaction was with ebay. not nico. do you want me to stop responding and just ignore you like ? I dont think so. I am stepping up and trying to fix this................

if he's so upset and streesed out over this, why not just get it over with?

now he says he's trying to get this over with, so im going to give him the benfit of the doubt, again.

Since he effed you over shouldn't that be on the top of the list to do. Hell since it probably requires 30min to complete and over in a day. How the hell are any of those emails threatening? I think that you were a little to polite for my tastes but ehhh.

Good luck man

An interesting example of substandard human behavior. This is what happens when parents never say "no" to their children.

Notice how this guy screws someone over and then everything is about him. He is so busy, he got screwed over and is the real victim, your demand for your refund is stressing him out - again he is the victim. Also notice how he puts his priorities first and foremost rather than conducting himself in a stand up manner and paying his debts first.

It's all about him. This is what makes ripping people off come so naturally, they are incapable of seeing the other person's grief, only their own.

And this notion that debt or obligation can be put off until it is convenient - that is simply laughable to me - grow TF up for crying out loud.

Perhaps when we come across a guy like this we should go put the smackdown on their parents for raising a spoiled narcissistic little turd.

without elaborating. After reading the first part of the story and what Andre posted, it sounded sincere and I would have given him the benefit of hte doubt, but enough is enough. School and work are not your only priorities, his money is too. If your stressin give it back.

Go watch a movie and see what happens when people don't get their money, that will give you reason to stress. Think about that and you may want to hurry your dumb *** up. Your acting like a real POS.

I'm sorry but there is no ****ing way that with how long this has been going on you could not take 20 minutes to run to the bank and put in a transfer. I dont care how "hectic" or "busy" your schedule is, NOONE is that busy, you get a lunch break from work? There ya go do it then, have 15 minutes between classes? There ya go do it then. You say in your emails your standing up to do this, you are not standing up to do ****, you're just stringing him along until it all goes away, but guess what, look at Alec Bradford, NICO doesn't just go away, there are enough people on this board in cali that you can bet the money will be paid one way or the other. I say either the guy doesn't have the money or he never planned on giving it back. Excuses are like tampons, every p*ssy has one.

To the OP, great job man, you are handling this so well, I would by ****ing livid by now.

To the scammer: It's a shame that people like you still think you can get away with like this. I really hope you can grasp just how big NICO is and how much of an effect this is going to have on your reputation not just with eBay but the import scene as a whole. If you think people will just continue to stand by quietly waiting for you to scam the next person you are sorely mistaken. Just pay the guy and be the end of it.

Andre, this is starting to sound like bulls**t. All notable banks are open until 6 pm an Fridays, and until around 2 pm on Sat. You need to adjust your schedule, go to the bank, and pay this kid back.

thanks guys

im still giving andre the benefit of the doubt. i realize that a set of headlights could have been lost and that he is losing aswell.

what i dont understadn is the same as what you dont, why he hasnt been able to this point send me my money back.

i thought the same things about not being able to go to the bank.

i emailed him again today telling him that if he is stressed that the sooner this is done with the better. me and him will go our seperate ways and he wont hear from me again.

once this is all done with, ill post up a thread letting everyone know he made ammends and that all is well.

i just called him and left a message on his phone saying im leaving fr florida monday morning and hope that he has time to send me the payment by the time i get back.

well see. that gives him a little over a week.

I can't believe this guy.What he needs to do is tell his work "yeah, I'm gonna be a little late today, I have to go to the bank to pay some guy that I royally f***ed over."Simple as that.Enough with the excuses.

Alec Bradford didn't get beat at all - there was no need. With just a name and general location I found his stepdad's address and place of employment (a city council member, even), Alec's place of employment and when he next worked, and Alec's address and phone number. Things worked out well after that.

OP - feel free to contact me on AIM if things don't get suitably resolved. nchopp83. I have a good track record with handling these kinds of things.

If the shipping company lost his package, I don't see why they shouldn't pay him back for it.

looks like im not the only one he screwed recently

http://myworld.ebay.com/ebaymotors/driftlogics/

i have discrovered he also posts on the following sites, can anyone who is regsitered to thse sites post this website up to show them what andre is doing...

240sxforums.comhttp://www.drifting.es/foro/in...u=502http://b ... /f....html

i do know for sure that those ones are him since his member pic is the same as in his myspace pic or the location is the same

i feel that others should know who they're dealing withsince andre will no longer repsond to my emaisl or phone calls (going on 3 days) and i doubt he'll psot here ever again, we should share this with others.

i would also like to pass this on to Z ilvia.com members but i do not have suffieicnet privaledges to post there yet.

thanks guys

I would suggest contacting the people that left him negative feedback on paypal asking them to add a link to this thread in their feedback. I'm sure people debating whether to buy from him would love to see this.
