Whoops...the ownage is full on now. We have:
1. Ebay Account
2. Paypal Account
3. License plate tag numbers
4. Area where his IP's are originated from
5. Wikipedia sites he has terrorized and defaced.
6. Myspace account
Did I miss anything? It's like a 100ft wave, you can run but it will still get you. The internet is an open book, and all can be linked back to you. Any other help I can give let me know.

- place where he took the pictures of his cars
- most likely the same place where he works
- where he went to school (or maybe still attends)
- age
It's just a matter of time at this point to track this guy down. License plate numbers alone is pretty much game over.

you know, he's probably out there reading the progress of this and how it's been
building in terms of IDing him. with so many folks out there reading this, this is
just like an Amber Alert....ie someone will be spotting the car(s) and post their
sightings. the noose keeps getting tighter. even a short cruise is going to be
a gamble now. bwahahaha.....

any chance of posting to an alumni forum for that college he went to and asking if anyone knew of a recent alum who was bragging about having a jag and a benz? I assume he was a jerk in college too, and probably does not have many friends there.

Holy freaking cow!!!!!!!!!! I went away for the weekend so I haven't checked this thread since Friday morning. Let me just say that you guys are incredible. I will read through all the posts and reply where I think I can still shed some light. Once again, thanks to eveyone here. I don't think he would have been quite so eager to do a full refund without you guys tracking him down.

Ok Guys Party Is Over. Time to get serious now.
My name is Greg Henry, Im the regional manager for the eastcoast market for OEM Headlights N Parts. It has been brought to my attention that two parties are having issues with one of our local distributors. Let me first start off by saying this. We are based out of NYC, but we have several auto distributors along the east coast who we give leads to. Our local distributors consist of salvage yards, auto parts shops, and dealers. We then send you to their outlet so you can conduct business with them personally. Although my job consist of monitoring transactions, I cannot monitor every distributor at there site physically. They have binding contracts with us to ship and deliver orders directly to the customers. In otherwords they dropship for us. However we do get commision for each lead we give them. It is there responsibilty to send the order after we have recieved payment to the customer. We then give profits directly to the distributors. I understand that you are having a problem with the shipment it has been brought to my attention. I am dealing with the distributor directly and this problem will be dealt with. We will be issuing a full refund until this distributor futher explains the current situation. Please expect to recieve a full refund/credit to your card within 3-4 Business Days. I am sorry for the mishap with our local distributor. Please be advise this distributor is being dealt with at this time. We are sorry for the inconvenience our distributors for our company has caused to all associating parties.
Have a great weekend everyone !!!!!!!!!

Here is a letter from someone SAYING they got screwed also by him:
I used their automated checkout system for oemheadligtsnparts in CA and received a receipt through Izzaspeed.com, which I'm assuming is their warehouse distribution, but the site disappeared about a weeks ago after my payment. It's back up today as an online store selling pet clothing, located in Hong Kong China. The domain is registered to a Ricky Tsui, located at 4751 littlejohn st. Unit A, Baldwin Park CA 91706, a warehouse district in East Los Angeles. Baldwin Park is where the withdraw from my account originated from, so I know it's the same place. He has ownership of the domain until 2009, so it looks like they closed up shop and turned it into something else. Hung S. Lai is oemheadligtsnparts aka acelights, located in Montrose CO, but has a 626 area code for his #, which is Los Angeles. Not a coincidence. I already contacted the website host service (West*********) about their fraud; hope the host shuts them down. I've been contacted by 3 other people who are in our situation. They are located in CA or CO, but they use various cities to conduct business with various #'s and addresses. Keep me informed on any developments and I will do the same. Good luck.
Funny it is from email: Jeffery Maxwell [jeffmaxbenz@yahoo.com]
Anyone think perhaps this is him hoping I will share the info I have gotten and shared with the authorities? Things that make you go hmmm....
I have a hard time believing any Yahoo email accounts anymore.

I think he has been reading how much progress you guys have made in tracking him down and he is scared.
He is hoping that if he refunds your money you will cease in your efforts to prosecute him.
He's got his tail between his legs now.

Teolax and Timeless: keep on pressing the charges! Do not back down even if the chargebacks are successful. The damage is done, the crimes were committed, and the scammer needs to be punished. The law doesn't relinquish him from wrongdoing just because you get your refund. In fact he has nowhere else to turn to except to plead for mercy... which he doesn't deserve since he should have thought of the consequences before he started this entire charade of endless scams! He needs to be exposed and incarcerated.

1 - Refund the money via Google checkout (This is not the same as our credit card companies doing a chargeback via a dispute).
2 - Deliver the promised merchandise. Now, I am pretty sure he is going to find it very hard to find E63 wheels with tires with less than 100 miles off a new 2008 E63 AMG for the price agreed upon. However, if the aformentioned wheels/tires do show up by next Tuesday, then he has fulfilled his obligation to us albeit late delivery.
Now, for the countless others he has scammed and never delivered there is no legal recourse other than jailtime. We all know this is going to end with him in prison, but I thought I would mention what he COULD do in regards to Teolax and myself.

Actually, to be fair, the law allows him to do two things for myself and Teolax.

I hope you guys get your money back and this is cleared up, and this sends a clear message to thieves.
BTW- Hope you all have a good holiday!

He might have, If you look at the Jag pics at the brick house with the green door and look at the picture of the wheels it looks like the same brick house. Probably his parents house being there was a flower pot next to the wheels.

The picture was confirmed by another member who owns an E63 that those were his wheels, not the OP's. He stole that picture out of another thread. It was never his.
