What a crock of crap! I can't belive nobody has asked the following questions or made the following satements yet. Was/is there a Bankrupcy filed on behalf of 360 Forged? With a backlog of over 150 orders how and why would you involve yourself with the 360 Forged name? I'm not too sure about the law in Florida, but by you assuming the assets you might be legally bound should a BK be filed. This sounds like a backdoor way around a BK and Jordan attempting to salvage what little he has left. You do not appear to be a very smart business man IMO. Did you buy the company, did you buy the debt, or did you just assume the assets? Those are three very different scenerios with three very different meanings. I still for the life of me wonder why you would involve yourself with a buying a company whose name is mud on every single automobile forum out there, that is not a smart business move. I would also assume that with all the ticked off customers 360 also has a lot of ticked off vendors/suppliers, I would like to see some commitment/line of credit letters posted here from your suppliers. I can't image you have vendors lining up, right? Can you please post some of these letters? Without a line of credit from your suppliers how do you intend on making good on and filling the old orders, LET ALONE ANY NEW ORDERS? I can smell a scam/crook from a mile away and this has stink written all over it.
The funny part is that I was in Miami this past weekend, I'm in the Bahama's right now, but will be back in Miami in a few days, maybe I'll do a little poking around on my own when I am back in Miami.

As you can see by the state of the economy that's worked out really well.

I lost $400 in hotel and car show registration fees after I was told to go ahead and register, because my wheels would arrive the day before the show, 23rd Feb 2009. I was clearly lied to, knowing that this lie would cost me money. That's a really horrible thing to do to someone.

wait a second here, i thought Jordan was a "responsible" business owner and all these crazy internets rumors were biased attacks against him from people that were just jealous of his "baller" status - i know there is a reasonable excuse for blatantly lying to you.

Now of course the new management plans to make good on all of their previous orders while assuming absolutely no responsibility for what's gone on in the past.
Yah. Might as well send me a letter from Nigeria telling me you'll give me $40million.

i just dont get it. if my business/financial lifeblood was on the line i dont think i would have been spending (i mean wasting) so much time on the internet bragging about his (aka the banks) fancy watches, cars, parties, etc....
he spent so much time taking stupid pics and posting them on numerous forums bragging to everyone else that he could have actually been doing real work and satisfying current orders from people that paid him and have been waiting for months.
i know its a strange concept, but either i am dead wrong or just a real legimate businessman and am not familiar with con artistry 101. i also dont feel the need to convince strangers that i am wealthy so maybe i dont understand Jordan's side of things. however i do believe he has knowingly screwed many people over and his response has been waaaay less than appropriate.

360 Forged Feedback / Review
OK guys, no need to get into a forum debate with anyone, I'm simply here to state my position and inform you all as to the current situation. As you all can imagine we have alot going on over here and unfortunately I do not have time to continue to check the forums. If anyone has any information, questions, or comments for me please feel free to call or email me any time. I will no longer be checking this thread.

It maybe a good investment for you to find some time to answer ligitimate questions posted here and on other forums if you plan on clearing up the horrible reputation built by previous management

Yes - Scott Gibson is the one who told me, pretty much guaranteed me 360's financial stability and promised to deliver my wheels on time.
That being said, Ive gone a different route - I should have my wheels in about 4 weeks - there is no chance I would trust putting 360's wheels on my car (especially after seeing that dope Jordan on Youtube)

Are you guys KIDDING? Wow! 
That's BAAAAAAAAD news for 360...
Sevas shut down/went bust because they got hit with a Mandatory Recall Order from the National Highway Transportation Safety Board, and they didn't have the $$$$ to pay back all the customers that the Federal Government told them to.
They were investigated to begin with, because their wheels started exploding at highway speeds as far back as 2007, and even though they knew about the problem they were greedy fukking ba$tards and "pulled a Jordan", trying to blame the customer for their cheap chinese workmanship and crappy financial condition. They refused to pay refunds or offer replacements until the government ordered them to, and by that time the money was (coincidentally enough!) already all gone.
Meanwhile, their customers got left holding the bag, out all of their money and stuck with wheels that the NHTSB declared were UNSAFE.
Seriously, this has gotta be a ******' JOKE. They're really assembling a regular "Dream Team" over there, aren't they?
This is like if I started up a company and hired Ken Lay as CEO, Jeff Skilling as President, and Bernie Madoff as the accountant. WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Welcome to my garage!!!!
Good old Spyro, one of Scott's boys at Sevas tried to infiltrate us before and was completely owned. Scott even threatened to sue us over it on G35driver.
I'm beginning to think they should rename the company to 360Forgery.

Just saw this posted by Forged DST on G35driver
"Guys, Just want to clear the air up a little before to many speculations get thrown around.
360 Forged has no affiliation what so ever with SEVAS. Scott Gibson is a sales rep who was employed by SEVAS. He was part of their sales staff and nothing more.
360 Forged, did have an issue with a large backorder. 360 Forged could not produce the wheels as fast as the order were taken. This happens. Since the merger with Forged Distributing/Modular Concepts, customer back orders have been caught up to almost 100%. There are still customers waiting, but we are getting to all of them. We are about 85% caught up and and working very diligently to be 100% caught up.
Many of the issues that were blasted all over the forums were 100% fabricated by people out just to bring 360 Forged down. Some were true, but non the less the issues that were brought up have been rectified by the new administration.
Alain the Owner of Modular Concepts (ex partner of 360 Forged, 2 years ago) has resumed production and the daily day to day operation of 360 Forged/Modular Concepts/System Forged, to ensure the prompt delivery of all wheels offered under FORGED DISTRIBUTING."
Wasn't Scott the President not just some sales guy for Sevas...

Scott Gibson is clearly identified as the President of Sevas on several boards and websites. 'Nuff said, more lies from 360. It's not slander if it's true.

360Forged =
they lie when they are supposedly coming clean, they have no money to pay vendors yet they keep taking new orders while old orders go unfulfilled, they commit fraud and lie straight to your face, and they have multiple con artists on staff. it just doesn't sound like a company i would put any confidence in at all.
why on earth would anyone with half a brain even consider placing an order with them?

I am still wondering if ISS Forged has anything to do with 360 Forged. Take a look at the link to a thread below. As soon as I read that thread my BS detector went off and I started to do some research on ISS and found some crossover between them and 360, some addresses and phone numbers cross referenced one another I got a PM from the guy at ISS, he claims he invested with 360 or loaned them money at some point but has no affiliation...sounds fishy to me.
