Over the years we've tracked down and outed a lot of scammers, but I don't think I've seen one this intensive. Watching and hoping this scumbag goes to jail.

I could have saved you...but i didnt. now i feel bad

Is there anyway this thread can be cleaned up?

i.e. all the one posters from other forums gone, its cool to show support but come on. We have people from everywhere.

I can't believe how many people are drawn to this thread.

You know whats really funny I saw this thread the first day and thought i had seen those wheels before. I can't believe this guy has taken so many people. I feel bad because I probably could have saved you guys from spending money, but was too lazy to raise the flag. Also I would have looked dumb if it was legit...but one post members arent usually legit. I think this guy actually had the same thread going on over an benzworld.

You know whats really sad is I doubt anything will really come out of this.

You guys did get your money back right?...thats a saving grace.

Heirkranz you have the best SEC ever.. It was my background for a while.

I'm a little shaken by how much you can figure out by little crumbs in a digital info trail.

Are you trying to say that as long as he realizes that what he did was wrong, he's free to go? So why don't we let all those scammers, murderers, pedofiles, etc free, after all, they're sorry for what they did.....

People like this should, no, MUST be punished for their actions! Being scammed (not by him) i know exactly how these people feel and I support it 100%

Ok so from what I've read, we're still not really sure who he is, and no legal action has been taken yet like the police getting involved. You thought it was Bill J Smith from Stoughton but we don't know who it is right?

Everyone take a break and remember this guy and the forum members who tried to get his picture... and remember this... This isn't Canada!

This guy posted (could be a lie like every other thing out of his mouth) that he was packing "heaters"... that's street for guns.


I also got the heaters near also just in case pops off.
Be careful!

Thanks very much.

Attention from LEOs is exactly what these scammers need - anyone a member of a LEO-only forum who could spread the word?

Good Job guys. I hope this has been posted on LEO forums such as officer.com.
EDJ rolls pretty deep in that forum.
65 members and 240 guests. This might beat the NSX PRIME ownage.

I've been reading this thread for two nights on and off now... in a word a-m-a-z-i-n-g

I can't wait to get past page 38 tomorrow night...

I'm almost certain that nothing major will come of it. People are acting like this is the only thief in the US or that he'll be tried under Federal RICO statutes like some Mob dude. . The P.D. will most likely bring petty theft charges against him (if any charges at all) and he'll cop a probation plea with some community service.

Well, it simply shows how more level-headed and mature many MBW members are... I'd take some of their comments like a grain of salt.
Perhaps you are unaware that RICO is not used only for "Mob dudes." It is being used more and more against "small-time" operations. In fact, the threat of adding RICO charges is one reason why Mike Vick plead guilty.

Read a book sometime.

Just to clarify... I surely REALLY hope you're not talking to me. I posted that as chatter from NT forum, which is where these scammers like to hang-out at. If you re-read it carefully "wawaweewa" is the one that mentioned the RICO statement.

If he gets busted, I hope he is packing when they arrest him. I don't think Massachusetts issues many concealed-carry permits.

Since someone has the SSN, I still think the IRS is the most effective route, all others will piggy back their investigation

Hint! Hint! They got Capone!

With the IRS the burden of proof shifts.

Sorry about that. Should have clarified that it was in response to the wawawookie tard. It is late, and my sleeping pills are kicking in.
