Default FAO EVERYBODY - 'daversturbo' complete rip off artist.

Just a warning to people, if this guy approaches you offering you parts when you have placed a 'wanted' add, please tell him where to go, i know at least two people that have now been ripped off by him

My cost was not as much as others but im still outa pocket by it, so warning others make me feel better.

i asked for some pictures and got an email addressed from this lady sent to me - NOTE the part at the end jacqueline anderson [fordsparesuk@fsmail.net]

My cheque was paid out to David Anderson.

Ive emailed this back but got it returned so guess they've done a runner

Ill keep bumping this to the top so poeple can read it, or maybe make it a sticky in the wanted room

I don't want this to aimed at everybody from gateshead, but this is where he's from, so if the address for the money to be sent to is from here be sus

easily solved mate, just report it to the police,

they will track him down and seize his pc to check all correspondance,
theyll have it for a good couple of weeks too, youll get your money back.

i know as the bastards have had my pc several times


nah some twat on ebay ripped me off, used an address that he didnt live at, just some foreign woman who didnt know what we were there for,
reported it to the police and about 8 weeks later got a call saying would
i be happy with the money back or did i want to press charges, it was a decent wedge so said if i got the cash back id let it go, if it had been a
smaller amount id have given that up and got the fooker charged.

do it mate, might not be much cash but it may save others in future.

don't know what can you do? what powers do you have?

it's annoying that even if you ban him as daversturbo, he can just make another accopunt up using a different username and bogus free email address

Very little in cases like this. If he was banned then you'd never be able to get in touch with him which hadly benefits you and the others he's ripped off.

All i can suggest is you try here:

what about that ip address thing?
can you not just ban that so that he couldn't log on to here from that computer anymore?

but that doesn't stop him from walking away does it

could you not put up a "banned ip address" list instead? i have no idea how or even if this would work, but there have been a few incidents like this now and the quicker we act to stop this sort of thing happening the bette

i know you can't stop scumbags ripping you off at every opportunity, but not letting them bumblefuck a whole forum over should be a start
