As we get the information sorted out, we will try and be there when he is arrested. We don't want to stalk him or his family, giving them ammunition to press charges against us, this trash isnt worth it. When the time comes I will ask a few people offline to join me, if we are given the oppurtunity.

Second... Can we keep whoring to a minimum... If you would like to *****, please take it to our whoring thread...

I am going to call one of my good friends who is an engineer at Motorola to find out for certain.
Perhaps....but I know that on my V3 Razr, GPS is only enabled after you dial 911 UNLESS you manually turn it on to be "always on" so that you can use the phone's navigation software....

I believe that triangulating through cell towers is the only other way to find someones genereal vicinity through a cell phone w/o the GPS activated.

Someone should post under their NORMAL userID from the store, just to reassure it's not one of the scammers trying to throw us off.

So disrespect to the person who did the above test, if in fact, it is legit. Just trying to cover all bases, as we KNOW they are following this thread.

I'm almost in tears at my desk right now. This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever witnessed, and I've dated F.I.T. girls. Now we have Apple added to the fray of plaintiffs that are eager to get these kids???

Well if you are still there, why not just login now as your regular SN and post one more time? It would be very definitive at the very least....

+1 on this thread as a distraction....I have done VERY LITTLE actual work in the last two days!!

I was one of his first victims. The name above was direct from his paypal address - you do need a bank account for paypal. He has both New York & MA phone numbers. I have been warning people / forums/ paypal/ police of this guy for weeks. He is ruthless - not for long

They need to be charged from all their scams. Apple, ebay, DHL, mail fraud, scam on mbworld & other forums, etc....

Ditto also on the distraction. Can't get work done!! This is too juicy...

i found this thread over at rx7club and i just had to post at the amazing community this board has.

all of your detective work is admirable to assist a fellow gearhead in need and it proves that there are still good people in our country. much respect!

we work hard for our money and we do our jobs, last thing we need is some lowlife scumbag to take that away. this fool deserves harsh justice along with an 8ft tall new boyfriend up in the state pen.

That's really disappointing to me, an apple employee, that he works for the same man i do lol. He is working in a new store, and it seems rather unlikely that he can just walk out with a Mac that he hasn't paid for with all of the cameras there are, especially with him being a floor employee and not back of house, or in the back with the inventory. however he could have bought it with the discount we have and is reselling, which apple would like to know about if he is.

I retract my statement about someone posting from their normal ID. Looks like everything's legit.

Props to whoever conducted the "applestoretest."

It's amazing how everyone is working together to get these clowns.
