a coincidence is that this wheel picture is named LS-5



http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h3...y4987/LS-5.jpg

And the title of this video is Nige's LS

Yeah definitely looks like a NY plate because it looks like it has the top and bottom bars on it too.

Oh yeah I remember you!

Luckly I think they were members of every forum but MBshop! We seem to be clear of their scum I justed looked, but will check again just to be sure.

I have to say I am concerned that people reading this thread will start to harrass him and ruin the PD investigation. These threads have a habit of bringing in all the nut jobs. The mods here sure have their hands full!


Good luck! Nail these SOB's!

Why would you do something unadvised like that? Did you not read the posts that said DO NOT SEND TO 4CHAN!!!!

This isn't a matter for an angry internet lynch mob, as effective as they may be. The police have already been contacted.

Just to reiterate...

As stated earlier, let the authorities handle this matter. We have built a case with evidence that is solid. The proper channels have been notified, it may seem boring guys, but this is the proper method of approach. If someone confronts or harasses him then all this work is naught. Please don't do that.

I want these guys caught, and in jail as they have scammed many for a long period of time as it seems. Notice that I and several others have not posted too much as of late. Trust, work is being done behind the scenes. Let's cut the whoring done to a minimum.

At best, this had brought a lot of good results, refunds were made and these thieves, that attempted to be smart have been called out. They are marked now, so have comfort with that.

PLEASE READ THE SUMMARY BEFORE POSTING! THANKS!

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 dont mean to add to the uneccesary posts but maybe locking it up so newbies can't post "sounds" like a good idea but you may end up keeping the scammers from posting more and digging the whole deeper for themselves.


Last post for me just so I can practice what I'm preaching. peace.

Oye - it's great that this scammer is getting the attention, but the "group think" that starts happening is a little scary.

His scams were not all pulled off in a day, nor with the case against him be built in a day. Contacting other victims, working with other jurisdictions (esp in interstate commerce) takes time. Although it may not seem like it on here, folks do have lives and can't drop EVERYTHING and go meet with the cops.

If they are building a case against him - wouldn't it be wise to gather as many victims as you could find and nail down as many details as you could determine?

Again - things take time. What's that saying about the wheels of justice turning slowly?

We CAN make sure there are no further victims going forward - make sure Billy and Jonathan don't scam other forums, etc. and that would be where efforts are best spent - NOT meddling to the point of destroying a case that seems to be coming together because of the efforts of a couple dedicated and SMART folks on the forum.

You guys have the "Ready, FIRE!, Aim" thing down pretty good.

It's taken me three days to catch up on this whole thing, I'm over from Bowhunter.com

First off, the multiple cameras would make sense if he does/did work at Best Buy. Secondly, from seeing some of the previous items, I truly believe that Apple Security needs to be in the loop. Who cares if you get an answering machine, e-mail them a link to this one. They can check to see what security issues they have had in the past at this particular store and might be able to put some outstanding isssues to rest.

Also, if he has filed claims with DHL in the past, he could most deff. be charged with insurance fraud. That would be his biggest charge that I see. He might have tried with this one transaction, but backed off due to the heat. Talk about getting multiple checks.

The guy with DHL needs to check into this. I'm sure that DHL would like to nail him, considering what he has said about them.

Keep up the good work.

Breaking news.

My AMEX refund has posted to my account! Very grateful. I believe that is three total refunds - teolax, timeless, and robbyt18/bobby_light.

Thanks to the mods, admin, timeless, amg ****, mbworld, and all who have and still are contributing to catching these crooks. I applaud your efforts.

Can anyone look up the owner of a tmail (tmobile email) account.


Taken from an m5board post.

Wow. IP is: 24.185.101.150 ool-18b96596.dyn.optonline.net


Email is:

prettyboy4987@tmail.com

Tmail (when I had my sidekick) was pushed straight to my phone.... Maybe someone could look it up...

Also, (i think) you have to have an active tmobile acct. to get a tmail account.

Nice job!!

Checking in here from srtforums.com

You guys are doing a great job and definitely hope this guy gets nailed..

I can't believe how vain this guy is.. Continually coming back and posting under different accounts etc.. Did he seriously NOT expect to get caught?? Man.. The more people get away with **** the more the bigger the 0wnage.. If he would have kept low key or not been so greedy he could have been doing this for years..
