To fellow chatters, I wanted to make you aware of a member here named Driftracer3 (Shane Kent), who lives in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and is conducting fraudulent internet sales. Without getting into too much detail, he has failed to deliver on a product after months of waiting. He then suggested a refund, and failed to deliver on that. After making multiple attempts to contact him, I've not heard a word in over three weeks. I also did some investigating, and found out he has a history of conducting shady practices and has done so on various other forums through the years. So please, be aware of this individual and his activities.
I saw a thread yesterday about this guy ripping off a member for $10K. Lambo exhaust if I recall correctly. Edit to Add: SEE THIS THREAD in the NY Section. It is the one I am talking about. Get with SFChallenge and you may be able to team up and get this guy arrested. Thread here: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?p=141043177#post141043177
Wow. Sorry to hear that. Had to check back on my PM's but sure enough, he was very aggressive in trying to sell me an exhaust when I first got my car. Hope you catch him and get your money back.
I will check my files when I get home next week for all the info. Here is what I have in my phone... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
My exhaust was shipped from a business....a muffler shop-type IIRC.... I have my receipt at my house. Anyone else have any receipts?
After I posted a question about headers back in May, he PM'ed me 4 times trying to sell some headers.
Chronic scammer.....sent me an unsolicited PM for an exhaust for my Scud. F**king dirt bag...hope he gets nailed !!
Contacted me a few times via PM selling exhaust systems for my Scuderia. I only do business with people I know.
He PM'd me as well about a exhaust for my F430. He was very aggressive. Hopefully he will be banned or at least be known on here to members as a scammer. This thread should help!
Tried to sell me a new exhaust for my 360CS..I never replied...and to think I felt bad for not replying. I was just lucky I guess
Got a PM and suggested a ecu tune for $2k....don't think I ever replied just cause I would do something like that locally and not gonna ship my parts somewhere
I hope a mod will sticky his name somewhere. We should have a list of known scammers that we can cross reference when someone is offering a deal. He sells on ebay too under the name lexustuner38
Looked back at my PM's..sure enough he was trying to sell me a Hamman exhaust for my 612..was also very aggressive.
I also received a PM from him trying to sell me an exhaust after I asked a question about a system. Here's his PM to me: Exhaust Hey Mike, Are you looking for an F430 exhaust? Im ordering a couple next week from a company called Innotech. They make an AWESOME exhaust, on the 430 it sounds wicked. Here is a video: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O9a83B4YGU[/ame] Their system is $4800. More expensive than Nouvalari, but it has built in valves for sound control, and includes the remote for the valves. Sounds amazing, and its very similar to Kreissieg (the BEST). If you wanted their system, I could order one for you. They also offer high flow cats that are well priced. Hope that helps, Shane
holly crap guys... I wonder how many people he's ripped off... this guy tried to sell me a "scorpion" exhaust and used the same dam video above as a sound clip. Also tried to sell me some rims... total like 12K to scam me out of.... have to deal with people you know! He uses this email... [email protected] so anyone who sees this MARK IT!! I hope you scum back piece of crap is reading this thread right now...
And oh by the way... anyone looking for a lengthy fraudulent email when you book this fool in court let me know... I can send it all to you.
I'm starting to think the only reason i got my money back from this guy is because i paid him with a credit card, and it was only a deposit so he wasn't making a big score off me. Plus if I reported fraud the credit card company would get involved in finding him. Jesus why are people such piece of
How did you guys pay him. Maybe moderators can help with IP address, does anyone have a physical address for him? We just went thru this with a fraudulent buyer. http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/996-turbo-gt2/260268-fraud-alert-do-you-know-guy-reward.html I'm sure with the brainpower here this guy can be stopped/found.
