Normally when you ask for help, you do not require people to drag information out of you.

Well he has no member profile filled out and puts no phone numbers on his ads.

As much as I hate to say it, the name he gave you is probably bogus and unless you have his home address you probably were ripped off.

What is the phone number he gave you? I would like to search and see where its based from.

What country do you live in?

I sent this guy a message off this ad he has now to see if he replies

[abarth78]

If it were me, I think I would start by contacting the bank who completed the transfer & file claim of the scam. Ask them what are the next options.

Ive send him a mail as the last warning so hope fully he will give me what is rightfully mine... Money!!!!

So I don't want to be negative, but usually there is no real legal recourse that is worth the time when it is an overseas transaction. Yes it is a scam & highly against the law- but legal justice is a whole different challenge. I have dealt with this form a manufacturers standpoint (being the victim). A seller transaction can simply dispute w/ bank & payment reversed. If the product is already on the way, 1 of 2 things happen: buyer gets the product & money -or- buyer gets money back & product sits in customs & begins to accrue daily storage fees until it exceeds the value. Manufacturer then forfeits & does a shrink write off. This is why manufacturers do not accept CC's overseas. They will work until buyer disputes. Wire transfers are only volatile when being transferred... once the money hits the account, it is tough to get it reversed.

In your case, lets hope that because you are a consumer that the rules are different. If you were a manufacturer, you would be totally screwed.

hope it wasn,t from JC transmissions They are also Bad

Your guy sounds like my guy heavyhorsepower. First time we talked he said his name was mike. I looked his phone number up and it was registered to a Justin. Ad 182075154.

This guy who stole from you has also done it to me and will be caught soon. He is a piece of shit! He also goes under heavyhorsepower.

I believe this guy is trying it again, stay away from listings 182119209 & 182118537. He is also on ebay, tried to scam me, but I caught on to his scam, found a picture of the trans on another site from a Ford forum. He is trying to sell it as a Chevy trans. This is his phone number 661-864-9478, probably the same guy, never gave me his name, but from his ebay listing I am assuming his first name is Michael. Stay away from ebay listing #181310481847. He is in Bakersfield, CA. Hope this helps you.
