URGENT!!! Anyone From LA, CA???

Need urgent help locating a fellow member that did an unjust to me. I paid him $700 USD for brand new Kleemann headers and he hasn't responded or shipped the headers. I should have immediately confirmed the tracking # that he gave me and I really messed up royally. Username is mrbilly and I tracked his URL from his email messages. He is located at

12025 Waterfront Dr
Suite 300
Los Angeles
CA
90292
US

It is possible that it could be Marina Del Ray CA.

He goes by the alias's James ***, Lyle Kaiser, Dave and Bill. He has several email accounts as follows. billyanddebrawray4837@gmail.com, lyle_kaiser@yahoo.com and juxlove11@gmail.com. He is apparently 73 years of age and currently going through a divorce.

Could anyone please verify if this address exists and if so, who resides there? I am not asking or wanting anyone to confront this individual for me. If anyone knows anything of this member please contact me. He initially contacted me via a classified ad that I posted on here. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You!

appears that address is not a residence, but an office building right by something for USC

Thank you for the help and feedback! What may I ask is USC? I am curious as to whether he added his real address to his member profile "mrbilly", among this forum! I won't give up trying as I would rather spend another $700 to foil his intentions. Thanks again!

73 years old and selling Kleemann headers on mbworld.org using 3 wildly different email addresses?

I hate to sound skeptical, but this reeks of a scam to me. Someone likely stole the identity of a 73 year old and used it to scam. I pray I'm wrong though. Surely some LA people here can make a quick trip and spot something? I'd help, but I'm in Nashville TN!

I could be wrong, but I'm betting;

he isn't 73.
he isn't going through a divorce.
he doesn't reside in the US.


What was the method of payment? I had someone attempt to scam me after receiving the item. They paid through Paypal and disputed the charge with their CC company after receiving the goods. PayPal returned the money to my account (after several months) because I had followed their guidelines (not only did I have signature confirmation that it was delivered, but he also had to print his name and the address it was received at). Can't dispute that.

Best of luck to you (and be careful on the "interwebs").

Thank you to everyone for their help! $700 is a lot of cash but, to me, it is the principal. I will NOT let up until I locate this individual. I saved every one of his emails and I am piecing together what I feel are tiny clues in each of his messages. I will keep you all updated! Thanks again!

Man, this sucks and doesn't look good...

found this thread where they speak of a possible scam from a guy who used one of the email addresses listed by you:

If you paid thru paypal or bank, i would start looking into opening a claim...

If you sent the money through paypal did he ask you to send it as a gift? If so, you got duped...
