Default ripped of by bigboost451/r5jame5 NOW REFUNDED, big thanks to mods

if anyone know james moore who has been using the above screen names can you pm me.

i bought these brakes

https://passionford.com/forum/ford-r...disc-conv.html

then found out he was r5james5 that had been banned for this

https://passionford.com/forum/genera...h-r5jame5.html

he gave me this email address to pay the money into his paypal account

paypal said the police can get the address from them, then i can use county court to get my money back.
they did'nt say they would give it to me but will give it to the courts.

he wanted paying via a gift so paypal can't help me

The pictures that bigboost451 used to show the things he had for sale on here were from r5jame5 photobucket account (If theyre still on here just check the properties) :-(

This was why this user was banned as soon as it was found out who he was otherwise others could have been ripped off also.

Im just sorry it wasnt picked up sooner.

Without trying to sound a cunt did that not set alarm bells off. Seems common place that people get ripped off this way now.

If i can't collect in person i offer to pay the paypal charge if they knock that back then the deal is off simple.

It maybe be an idea if the site are allowing people to sell things on here they should have there address and this should be able to be requested but if you request there details yours would need to be sent to them as this makes it all above board on the sites point of view.

The site already says that you should be carefully of who you trade with and sending money as a gift is a big nono if you don't know the guy from Adam.

Perhaps you should ask for people to vouch for the seller beforehand if you are new? If it was me there are plenty of people who know me and would say I'm honest and stuff, the same with the vast majority of people who post here would vouch for each other as not being scamming cunts.

It is a case of buyer beware though

:-(

Ok the only person who actually left negative feedback for r5jame5 was milesy we need to find out if milesy can remember what email address he was given to send the money to.

if its r5jame5@hotmail.co.uk then i would have to say that r5jame5 and bigboost451 are one of the same regardless of what he is telling you on the phone.

i think that sellers should give more info to the mods so that it would stop shit like this happening as the mods would have the info and could pass it on to the police

people like this need to be stopped or taught a lesson
