Wow. This thread has come back up again, just in time for me to say "Yes" again. That's twice. LOL

yep it sucks

First one (1 year ago) - $3,000
Second one (10 months ago) - $3,000
Third one (6 months ago) - $15,000
Fourth one (2 months ago) - $2,000
Fifth one (2 weeks ago) - $500

All supposed to be 'friends', knowing them for YEARS personally, not just on the net. Knew their wives, kids, etc. Scumbags come in all shapes and sizes. Then they pull a fast one, you give them liniency 'cause they are friends after all (in your mind anyway), then they use that time to screw you more, then they dissapear...
But doesn't matter, what goes around comes around, and they will pay. Noone has ever got out of paying me back because I never forget and I never stop pursuing it by any means possible.

and DAMN BIG A that 3rd hit was a huge one

PM me the details on that would ya

Layne Staley · #17 (**permalink**) 09-17-2002, 07:37 PM

Two years ago Th***o got me for 3k and never made good. I knew he was having trouble but he kept taking guys money. I just don't understand why guys keep receiving funds knowing they can't make good on the product. The bad part was that I had referred a couple of good friends to him and they lost big time as well. Oh well, live and learn.

QuietStorm · #18 (**permalink**) 09-20-2002, 06:38 PM

Yep.. from a guy in Panama. Got two orders great, then BAM! the third time... he got me.

Jimbo Jomes · #19 (**permalink**) 09-20-2002, 07:34 PM

2x once for $135
another for $700

nandro · #20 (**permalink**) 09-20-2002, 10:26 PM

they've got me too! i was taken by people in the game a long time....moderators. Also, recently by someone who was backed by several big names.

I have told many a AS user how valuble the SOURCE is. They don't understand that people spend hundreds of dollars on gear and to find out their so called SOURCE has scammed them or sent them bunk shit.

God Bless good sources... :) especially mine

and SCAMMERS SHOULD BE HUNG BY THEIR BALLS. If I was a millionare, I would pay for a plane ticket for every person that gets scammed to fly out there and beat their ass.

If you've been around any length of time you eventually lose. It goes to show even when you do your homework, check ref's, and meet the family you can still lose. I've lost, but nowhere near you Big A. If you're going out with that much $$$ no wonder they call you "Big". =)

There was a Time a Guy from Florida took me for about 5G's,
Sorry son a bitch forgot that I knew where he lived, so we cleared his apartment, pawned most of his stuff, then jacked his jeep up and stole the rims and tires so he couldn't go anywhere........... If you get ripped off, there is always a way to get even. JUST make sure you know who you are dealing with. Nuff said...
