WARNING!! To ALL FoxTBirdCougar Members! LOOK Reply #31 – December 06, 2006, 02:51:20 PM Quote from: Aerobird Motorsports;117203This guy is a REAL BOTTOM FEEDING Scum SUCKER. He's been screwing the 2.3 community since July 2003 that I've been able to dig up with the help of some good friends online. Here's how many PAST User ID's this guy's used:girlsliketurbos2turboed351turboed302Thunderbird234turbobird99lightningFasturbo030Fasturbo03He frequently uses his "girlfriend" or his dad's name online. He also has any payment sent to his dad's house. The reason this sucker was able to con me was he told me his name was "Rick" until he had me make the M/O out to "Chuck Haug". That should have rang the warning bells, but my bank is supposed to be able to recall M/O's even after they've been deposited (yeah, they stopped doing that, jerks). I've found the guys checking account # and birthday out (he's 29) and will definately be filing charges today. Watch out Chuck Haug, you messed with the WRONG set of guys this time!!Excellent work Michael, Not that it helps any but I have talked with this guy one the phone. A while back he posted an add looking for a TC rear and I responded giving him my own phone number, he was quick to call back and let me know he wasn't going to need it... but he did try and sell me a tubular K member. I'll double check to see if I saved his number, but I doubt it. Quote Selected

WARNING!! To ALL FoxTBirdCougar Members! LOOK Reply #41 – December 06, 2006, 11:24:28 PM if anyone cares for my opinion on this,, then here it is.I think you should have to pay 1000 dollars to setup a paypal acct. The money sits as a deposit and paypal can invest it ect and you earn interest on your money. As you go on in the following months selling things, your money just sits there. If you close your account, paypal sends it back to you. If you have a problem with a buyer / seller,, then the money is sitting there waiting as restitution for the plaintif.That would be a good nuff reason to keep it clean if i was selling stuff.

If you have a problem with a buyer / seller,, then the money is sitting there waiting as restitution for the plaintif.That would be a good nuff reason to keep it clean if i was selling stuff.It would be pretty much useless, because when somebody does a chargeback PayPal takes the money anyway - if you have your bank account connected to PayPal (which you must do if you wish to withdraw funds) PayPal will go right into your bank account and take it. It is quite well known that the seller takes all the risks with PayPal (and it is also in court in several jurisdictions and for several reasons, as many of PayPal's policies of taking money from sellers are violations of the law). In fact, even if one follows PayPal's supposed "seller protection policy" to the letter (shipping to confirmed address within USA/Canada, providing tracking info and proof item was delivered, etc) if somebody does a chargeback PayPal takes the money from you, even though their seller protection policy says they won't - that's one of the things they're in court for.I'd like to see PayPal/eBay go the other way and require a deposit for buyers - that would go a long way toward preventing non-paying bidders. They should at least make it so that the deposit goes toward paying the sellers eBay fees if the buyer turns out to be a deadbeat. Not gonna happen, though, because eBay makes buckets of money from non-paying bidders (they refund the final value fee, but they keep the listing fee, so every non-paying bidder is at least a buck in eBay's bank account)This is all moot, of course - Michael didn't pay with PayPal or buy off eBay. I'd never send a MO to an un-known or un-trusted person. Quote Selected
