I think I've been doing good.

Some of you know what's been going on with one of my financial situations. A month and a half ago I bought a $450 paint set for my VROD from a guy on 1130cc.com named "theopsmanager". It was never sent. I opened a paypal claim, won, but they could not recover any funds. Got my father involved as I would just rip on the guy to no end. Here's what happened with that:

This guy has had excuse after excuse. Last night he had the guts to come on the forums and claim his side of the story in my thread:

It's been hard for me not to just call the guy screaming and cussing. This thread has been rather interesting. This is the cliff notes of the thread:

him: WHAAAAAAAAA I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY
me: SHUT UP AND PAY ME

I'm sorry if this angers you or anything but I find this extremely funny I don't know why I enjoy other peoples pain

You: No matter what way you choose to look at it, you committed an act of fraud. Enough talk. If you want to make it right, then make it right.

Truth to the dummy: Go sell some plasma or something, but get off your a** and pay up man. There is nothing worse than telling someone you will do something, then not do it.

Has he paid?

I say threaten court. I'm sure he's just stalling, thinking you'll give up the ghost.

No money. His plan now is to pay $225 now, and $225 late. I'm not a credit card company. His thing is that forking out $450 to 4 people is 'hard'. My rebuttal is that it's MY FREAKING MONEY AND I WANT IT BACK.

SOund like fun

BAM!

 

[Nemo]

the crappy thing is even if you go to court and win, the key would be to get attorney's fees, but then he'd just declare bankruptcy anyway and you're still screwed....next step maybe Guido? lol

Ooh ooh...eGO Road Trip to this guy's house!

 

[Flippy the Squirrel]

If it was me, I'd call the police where he lived and find out if you can press charges. That would motivate him.

 

[NinjaFluff]

If you paid via credit card, have your CC company issue a chargeback. You can dispute fraud like this with them, and has a much better outcome.

That said, whenever you use paypal, ALWAYS use a CC, don't let them draft from your bank account. Paypal, at least in recent memory, really doesn't give a crap if you get ripped off or not, they still got their money in the transaction.

Good luck

I think the real question is whether or not fed ex will deliver a horse's head directly to his bed while he's sleeping or only to his front porch.

 

[Noobkiller]

All in favor of going to his house and breaking this guys knee caps, type aye

 

[Blackestsoul]

Aye! ... and very harsh mop, I just read up on the issue and feel horrdily bad for you ...ive had serious fraud done on me before too ((stolen sin number)) ... and sadly enough even if you do go threw the cops....they likly will take just as long

Best of wishs, and if worse comes to worse....build a sentry infront of his spawn point

 

[Monkeybits]

I'd definitely go with the wire fraud angle. If it was an interstate transaction, it's a federal case. Nail him, nail him hard. You'd be surprised what people will pay when freedom's on the line.

Blackestsoul, you're a meanie, but it's a great idea.

Hey MoP my neighbor is a really good lawyer if you need one I can set you up for a discount !lol

 

[masterofpuppets]

I've already got the cops involved. I won the PayPal dispute, but they couldn't recover any funds from the deadbeats account.
