cc_audio Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Well, i got scammed. It was bound to happen sooner or later I suppose. I've done hundereds of transactions and I thought I knew all the ins and outs to protect myself. But anyway, here's the story. I sold my SMD sub to a Mario B. Jones APT. 8204 5500 SAMPSON ST. HOUSTON TX, 77004-7897 for $670 shipped. I used UPS C.O.D. which I have used before with great success and it has always been very secure. So when he wanted to use C.O.D., it never crossed my mind that he could scam me. He offered to buy the slip to avoid shipping cost to me, and so he did. Here is where my ignorance steps in, if you use C.O.D. at a UPS store without an account they send the check to the return address, and I already have an account so regardless I assumed it would come back to me. Well, he bought his with his account and UPS automagically sends the check to his address on his account, even though he's the one who paid upon delivery. I basically went ballistic on UPS because that's absolutely ridiculous way of doing things, and its something you will never read in the fine print on their site about C.O.D. If anyone knows this Mario B Jones, tell that low life to send me my money. And if you ever come across a Mario Jones, from that area don't deal with him. He's a coward scammer and low-life. Mods should take a peek and see if he's on this site please. I should have known better, I'm so pissed at myself. If only I weren't so far away I would deal with this piece of shit human being myself. 1 Quote It's all gone! The Celica Build Feedback If I buy something from you, DO NOT USE FEDEX!

Blue Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Yes it is, I would get a small claims started in his area. For the price of the sub, travel expenses, and court fees. Should be no problem for you to get your money back and then some. 1 Quote formerly known as Blue86f150 its a 4th order just because its tuned in the 40z doesnt mean it wont reach down and jiggle your balls at sub 30 hz frequencies.

Blue Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I would look up a local court house down there and call them up and see if you can get the process started.

_Vince Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) He scammed me too! I was suppose to buy his Sundown amp and power wires, I sent him money and I never got it shipped! He sent me photos with his username and all so it seemed legit. I was pushing for PayPal but he kept trying to do it through Walmart's MoneyGram, talking about he needed it for legal issues. I gave in and did it, but I never got my stuff. It was suppose to arrive at my house past Monday. It was $300 for Sundown 100.4 and 4 runs of Knu and Shok.
