    Scamming motherf$%ker.....

    Hey guys
    Ok I know some of you might have seen these emails on ebay and the like were you want and item and you contact the seller for a shipping price and they come up with some awsome deal that includes shipping and that sort of shit.
    Well I was a sucker for one of these scams about 6 months ago, and you would't belive it but it was a S54 motor that I was after. Like a dickhead i transfered the money(western union) and never heard from them again. My loss.

    But now I have come up with the exact same deal(same s54 motor or similar) and he/she wants me to transfer the money using moneygram. What should I do to F%^k them up, I was going to send them a virus or something but I don't want to get into trouble as its illegal.

    The details of the seller are.

    I would love to catch one of these guys.

    Let me know what I should do or what your experiences have been with this sort of stuff.
    Thanks

      Report them through ebay with their fishing scams department. Also do the same through paypal if you paid that route. I am not sure about what department it is in Australia, but here in the USA the FBI has a internet fraud division that we can report this stuff too. Look for the same program in your country. Other than that there is not much that can be done.

          My opinion:

          Stroll on up to 39A Latimer Road in Bournemouth, Dorset and get your S54. Seriously, if this is costing you in excess of $2000-3000, I wouldn't just write it off as general internet misfortune. You have the guy's "supposed" mailing address, keep feeding him on with e-mails until you can set up a time and location to meet him at. If it were my money, I would try to get a week or so off of work and fly out there. You could be wasting $3-400, but just think of the satisfaction you'd gain by throwing the perp in jail.

              Send the money this time. No one has been tricked twice on the internet, ever. So I'm pretty sure you are safe - send the money.

                I almost fell for a S54 scam on Ebay for 3K motor, tranny ecu, dif etc etc. I picked up on subtleties and hightailed it out after calling him out on it. Remember if it is too good to be true it most definetly is!
