I nearly fell on the floor laughing when he created another user name and confessed to the crime and also apologized to the "accused" for the commotion; yet both accounts were created and sent from the same ip address(priceless!!!). I tell you one thing tho., this just goes to show that the internet community, regardless of forum, is a strong knit group of individuals who will come together and acomplish many things quickly!!! They not only exposed him on several forums, got a pic of the accused, tracked him down to one of 2 different addresses, put up a pic of his home based on google earth, tracked down his cell phone number, tracked down an address for his mom and even exposed that his sister is a stripper. Now if that aint enough to scare the crap outta someone who knowingly proceeds to scam/rip-off someone, it should be a lesson.
owned damn!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know, I once had a Honda Civic, and I bought myself a set of Corbeau racing seats to replace the stock seats. I sold the stock seats on the internet, and the buyer accused me of selling him stolen seats. He found pieces of glass somewhere on the seats (perhaps inside the back pocket, if the civic even had these), and thought I busted into someones car to steal these. His email read something like "the next time you break into someones car to steal the seats, at least clean the glass out of them". But in fact the glass must've been left in there from the time someone broke into my car and stole my radio. I'll tell you, its very upsetting when you're being accused of something you're not guilty of, but in this particular case with the TSX, there's too much evidence that proves that the guy is guilty.

I was wondering what happened to that guy. He created a thread weekly of how his Jag S Type R was awesome.

Does anyone know if this guy got arrested or anything?

on IS300.net we had an incident where someone got their foglights stolen, the victim posted security camera footage and the thief happened to be a fellow forum member who was selling multiple sets of foglights, saying he got them from a body shop he worked at or something. That was an ugly day.
