Guys, I'll need some help here. I paid US$10K to Shane M kant aka driftracer3 in Fchat for a Kreisegg exhaust for my Lambo. He has been in contact with me for years & then recently gave me 4 referrals here which all checked out fine. I sent him the money in Aug & then the delivery kept delayed & I last heard from him on 16 Oct. His line is now disconnected. I have a Wisconsin photo ID & contact was 715.530.2742 Any suggestions will be most appreciated. Thanks. Jon
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. One question - is he in the NY/NJ area? Wisconsin is pretty far away. Best of Luck. Erik
Hasn't this guy been doing this for years. He tried to get me to buy one for my lambo a couple of years ago if I remember correctly..
I recently just got 1k back from him, it was a deposit for headers that i had sent him 3 months ago and finally I was fed up with waiting. He wasn't responding to any of my pms and finally I emailed him. He sent the money back to me and thankfully I deposited it and all is well. He provided me with references too. Have you tried this email? [email protected] Once I started emailing him on here he responded and apologized and said he wasn't on fchat much anymore. He also has an ebay username I can't believe I have one message from him still saved. His username is: lexastuner32. try messaging him on ebay! let me know if I can help! I was upset over 1k I would be livid over 10x that amount.
If you get in contact with him make sure to let him know that the FBI investigates interstate internet fraud, and the feds make sure those convicted spend real time in the slammer! I was robbed of $5k about 6 years ago, and I pursued it until the drug adddict / scammer was arrested in Canada. BT
Hi guys & especially Rmani, I've been trying both Fchat & his that email but he's just not responding. He also has not been logging into Fchat since 16 Oct. I'll look into his eBay contact after I'm back from Europe. Will update you guys & also, I can't find Wisconsin under regional so thought NYC will be my best bet as it receives the highest hit rate. Thanks & does anyone know where I can lodge a report to police? Do I juz google for FBI internet crimes? Thanks.
New thread in the 360/430 section about Driftracer ripping off someone else as well. Thread here: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=348189
Chronic scammer.....sent me an unsolicited PM for an exhaust for my Scud. F**king dirt bag...hope he gets nailed !!
Funny thing. He called my shop yesterday saying he was referred to me by someone in Long Island bc he knows that I have an LP640 shop car. Tried to sell me a scorpion exhaust system. Basically told him to send one over for free and I would try it out. def not sending him any cash..
Actually the guy lives in the Chippewa Valley,Wisconsin. Maybe someone who has been jilted by Shane Kent aka "Driftracer" could make a call to the Chippewa Police and let them know about the felonious fraud. (Over 10k is definitely a felony) There are 2 departments that would handle this: Eau Claire Police and Chippewa Falls Police depending on where Shane actually lives in the Chippewa Valley. I would try Eau Claire first. Here is the link and phone number for Eau Claire Police Dept. (Eau Claire is the larger city in the Chippewa Valley) Eau Claire Police Dept http://www.eauclairewi.gov/police-home Phone: (715) 839-4975 Here is the link for the Chippewa Falls police department: (Chippewa Falls is the smaller department) http://www.chippewafalls-wi.gov/Depa...Policehome.htm Chief of Police is a lovely lady named Wendy Stelter and the fine officers of the Chippewa Valley can be reached at (715) 723-4424 Cheers, Roo
maybe we should move this to another forum for more views? There's gotta be some wisconsin members on here.
I feel SO badly about this, because SFChallenge actually sent me a PM asking about my experience with Driftracer3. I told SF that my experience was positive... had my F355 F1 ECU tuned to remove 2ndary o2 sensor monitoring because I installed test pipes. I did, however, mention that "I" trusted Shane based on my dealings with him, but that anything could change/happen. Sucks that it seems as though the "anything could happen"... did. I have a number for Shane that worked "when" I delt with him. Certainly it doesn't work anymore (I've not tried) considering no one has been able to track him, but here it is: 715-530-2742.
