00CivicSleeper

Alright, here was his original thread. https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...t=1999+si+rims Oh, and he changed the text to ????. Well, basically he was selling his 1999 SI rims in mint condition for 320$ shipped. His email that he used is xjame5@yahoo.com . I sent him an email saying I was very interested, he asked where I was located, told me how much he was asking, and included a picture of 4 si rims. Well, i said I would take and he asked if i could pay via WesternUnion, well, not knowing much about it, i agreed. I sent 320$ on 12/28/04 to:

Dang Nguyen (he said James is his american name)
2929 Routier Road
Sacramento, CA 95827
Phone number he gave me was : 206-600-5572

He said he would be shipping from Seattle b/c thats where he was with his parents at the moment. He also said he would most likely be shipping from UPS. I sent him the merchant number the night I sent the money, he recieved the next morning. I emailed him back asking for tracking number. He didnt respond for 2 days. Finally, he emailed me saying "Heres the tracking number. Sorry for the wait. #4817382919" I tried UPS, not a correct tracking number, also tried FedEX, and USPS. Not correct, i emailed him back asking what company he used to ship and he hasnt responded for about a week. I know ive been scammed because he went back and changed his original post.

Please, if anyone has any information or anything that would be helpful in bringing this guy down, please post here, or email me at jett.1@sbcglobal.net If anyone lives in Sacramento or near that area and has any information, please let me know. Im DETERMINED to bring this guy down, first time i ever bought anything from another person on here and i get scammed. I will be reporting this to the fbi internet fraud center thing.

Again, if anyone has any tips or information, PLEASE post here or email me. Thank you for your time. Lets bring this dude to justice! God bless.

Bastard! I hope he responds actually. I was actually scammed on ebay so now I'm super careful...

is there anyone else I can submit a complaint to other than the internet fraud complaint center?

I would report the money order as being stolen, if possible.

As for Mr. James.
He last came online 01-02-2005 10:57 AM

So it's obvious he is avoiding you.
Upon investigation of his IP, a few user names came up, all with Yahoo email accounts and all signed up within the past year. This does raise some eyebrows.

I think Dayofdon may be another of his scamming names, I bought a set of Si rims this past weds via westernunion also and he has also changed his first text and has not replied to my emails and has not given me a tracking number or anything...
the address he gave me though was different:
Minh Nguyen
8550 german dr
sacramento, ca 95828...
same last name(being viet) prolly running a family scam if this si a sam...

AlmostFast

on a side note, i noticed... xjames has bought something from you?
and you said in a referral for dayofdon its a great guy, just curious how you know dayofdon or if you do or what?
