Good thing we have all these posts about scammers in here now - makes it REALLY easy to search the thread and try to find out who we shouldn't trade with. I am sure an OT thread could be made about who is from where, etc ? By no means let me stop you - I really do not see the relevance of where someone is from as far as who not to trade with ? I don't sell to scammers, regardless of where they are from, so it makes no matter to me if you are from IRAQ, MARS, AFRICA, Whatever. Can we possibly not screw this thread up further with pointless posts ?

Scammers think they are so smart but sometimes they are so stupid,I have bought a X-125 from nick4danni for US$175,the guy was stupid enough to spend AUS$21.95 to send me a pen(which is quite good,probably costs about US$5 ;D).I will just call the credit card company and ask for a chargeback,the guy will end up with about US$25 less then before the scam,how smart is that?He probably thought I would open a claim with paypal and as there is a tracking no. to proof delivery they would decide it in his favor.The guy so excited that even e-mailed me some time after shipping asking if I've already received my package.

LPF Username: nick4danni

Real Name: Nick Adams

E-mail:nick4danni@hotmail.com


Scammer's address:
15 Springvalley Way
Narre Warren
VIC
3805
Australia
There is also a phone number provided,if someone from Australia can call to it to see it's correct(ok,almost impossible,but we never know :D)
(03)87903233

The address seens strange for me,can someone from Australia check it to see if it at least makes sense?

I can confirm his address. I sent him a WL caps set to check out, and never heard back from him. Sure - I should have asked him to pay something first, but figured I was being nice - I had forgotten WHO I sent them to until you posted this info, that is the same address I have for him.

**edit** looks like he was last online on June 7th....most likely gone for good at this point.

if there was sarcasm implied in that post, you might want to make it more obvious...

otherwise people who haven't read the previous posts in this thread will assume you're just some closedminded ignorant hick... A lot of people do honestly believe that anyone with a funny last name is a radical extremist who wants to blow up buildings... it's sad, but true.

If in fact, you weren't being sarcastic, you sir, are a closedminded ignorant hick, and I refuse to do business with you.

[highlight]edit:[/highlight] amk took offense to my post, thought I had a grudge against him or something, I PM'd him to clear things up. all settled. just wanted to point out that sarcasm doesn't travel well over the internet, and taken out of context that comment could be taken the wrong way.

There was 30000% sarcasm in that post I AM MUSLIM, I AM IRANIAN, and I HAVE A MUSLIM LAST NAME. There was comic irony and sarcasm in that post, its like when a black guy calls another black guy the n word. They can do it, we cant. I can call myself a terrorist, but if you try to call me one, well, lets not go there. ;D ;D ;D

So - anyways, let's get back to the scamming crap, shall we ? Make a different thread if you want to ridicule terrorism, Muslims, "N's", Martians, Greeks, Americans, British, French, or whatever your points are - this is now, and remains a thread dedicated to calling out scamming scum for what they are. Any ass-ripping that happened because you went off topic, you deserve. Just knock it off, and get back to the topic.

On topic: eBay seller laserprogram (most well known for his 60 and 100W unmounted bars) is not just a scammer, but a true con artist of the internet world - watch out.

110% Search about it on alt.lasers. I've bought from him before - seemed okay. Then he stole $200 from me. When I started doing research though, I realized I was lucky to get off with just $200 - plenty have lost several thousand at stan turecki's hands. Very smart scammer, knows how to do it without getting in trouble

wow... lots of people got screwed by this guy.... Good thing i was discouraged from buying this stuff, couple months ago I asked about one of his auctions, but after I found out how much of a pain these unmounted bars are I decided not to buy...

Yeah, I actually have one of those diode bars laying around here somewhere. I bought that and a $200 and something crystal. He sent me the $100 diode bar, but no crystal in the package. I even went dumpster diving at the post office to make sure it wasn't lost in the packaging.

He made seemingly reasonable excuses as to why he forgot it and needs to order more, etc. for just long enough for me to not be able to dispute the charge - then he just ups and stops answering e-mails. Try sending a question from another account and he's there, just ignoring all the people he's ripped off. He's the scary type of scammer - seemingly tame, not an outright obvious one, but he knows how to pull off his tricks very well and sustainably, a true con artist!
