Let me summarize things just a bit:
I've read 40 so odd pages of this tonight. First things first, the kid posts up a for sale add for some rear end gears for a truck. Then another user posts up and says "Ummm arent these the "brand new" rear end gears I bought from you a couple weeks ago and havn't recieved yet?" The kid admits that they are, and says he screwed up asking $100 for them, because he really wanted $125 (since they are brand new), and if they guy sends him another $25 bucks he can have them. Only problem? The guy has already sent him $115 (100 plus 15 shipping) and the kid has cashed the check.
Then the kid refuses to send him the gears period. Some other members tell him he should, and through some digging, find out the kid is a scammer. Not only is he not going to send him the brand new gears, but the gears aren't even brand new. They have 11,000 miles on them. He posted up on another truck forum about how he had them replaced by a shop and was selling them. That is when $%# really hit the fan.
So the kid continues to be a complete retard, and they uncover him scamming or lying about $%# on other forums time and time again. He starts getting banned on other forums for bieng a tool. Then he continues to talk $%# on pirate4x4. A moderator gets pissed, and tells him to send the guy the money or face some serious consequences. His fill name and address is posted. Other people do some digging. The first 5 digits of his SS# get posted. Every yearbook picture of him from highschool gets posted. His family information, pictures of his parents, his jobs website, everything gets posted. They threaten to post his parents phone number. He continues to act like a little $%#.
Fast forward, the thread gets huge. It is posted on other forums (like this one) ALL OVER THE PLACE. Thousands of people are reading the thread, registering to tell the kid he is a farg, websites get started about him. The kid starts calling the buyers house and harassing his wife. The kids cell phone number is posted. He starts getting hundreds of calls every hour. $%# is really hitting the fan. He is infamous internationally.
And thats just through like page 46. Last time I checked, there are 70+ pages, so I don't know the rest. Somebody posts up and says they saw the entire thing on the news. Wow. Just wow.
