BAD548NOVA...................without a doubt a scammer.
Well, I hate to say it. But we can't let Robert Ames, aka BAD548NOVA off the hook just yet. I sold the guy a 16 volt alternator and bracket back on 1-2-2009. I shipped it out to him UPS ground on 1-6-2009. Our deal was I'd e-mail him with a tracking number (1Z87471W0354487363) and then he would make a payment of $260 ($250 for parts, $10 shipping) to my Paypal account. The tracking number showed he recieved the parts on 1-12-2009 at 6:40 pm. Still no payment. I tried calling him a few times and finally on 1-17-2008 (a Saturday) he answered his phone and told me his wife was going to make the payment on the following Monday. Well here we are now three weeks after I e-mailed him the tracking number and I've still not been paid. I've left multiple voicemail messages on his cell phone (313-332-9484) I've sent him three Paypal payment reminders, and a few e-mails to his racingjunk.com account. Same results, no payment, no returned phone calls and no return e-mails. I even called him and left him a voicemail that I was going to post an ad on racing junk warning people not to do business with him. (see ad #1445548) Still no response. I don't know what to do next. If you read this Mr. Robert Ames (BAD548NOVA) from 18604 Champaign in Allen Park, Michigan. For crying out loud, be a man and either pay for the parts, or send them back. Why would you ruin your name and give this website a black eye for $260 dollars? I've had over 550 hits in less then 36 hours on the ad telling everyone what you did. Is it really worth it? Does your wife and kid(s) that are on your website (amesmotosports.com) know you do this to people? Hey, it's your call. Take care of the problem now, or let it get worse. And to everyone else, losing $260 dollars of my own money will be well worth it as long as we don't let this crook steal from us again. If anybody has any suggestions on what I should do, let me know. Thanks!
