So can anybody give me suggestions on what to do or information about him??
-
Paypal dispute ;). Also calling paypal is even better.
-
I already made a dispute.. do i just escalate it to a claim straight without him replying?
-
we got scammed dude. he sold me that psp. I already have a claim going. he tried to get me to drop it and i refused.
Im pretty sure this is the same guy ive heard about that is a well known forum scammer, he ripped off people for $1000s
some people claim he is from texas.
Joe Jacobs
the360modder@gmail.com
That is the info I have on him, but its no use man, I know of 3 different names and locations he has used on this site alone, and Im pretty sure the guy uses phished accounts to do his dirty work, so hard to trace back to him.
-
OMg yea its joe jacobs.. how u know hes from texas..? f***
-
:censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:
-
damn... soo is there a chance that we can get our money back? im already escalating my disputes in paypal...
-
Well if there was any money in the account while he had a dispute brought against him then yes.
otherwise were screwed.
-
oh... sh** are u serious that sucks... and u bought the red psp too? for how much?
-
same price
i tried to buy the netbook to but he wouldnt send it first with the psp, so figured something might be up since he was trying so hard to sell it but wouldnt take the offer.
he also claimed he couldnt pay his electric bill yet, he was bragging earlier about how he just bought a iphone
The guys just a sad scammer. it will catch up to him eventually
-
i bought the red psp from him but he refunded me
-
Same here. Think he cleaned out the account b4 I made a dispute. I "Bought" the netbook.
-
WOW he scammed all of u guys too! wow
-

has your claim been resolved yet?
-
has your claim been resolved yet?
nope, anyone here got theirs resolved?
Edit: Well, good luck to everyone that been scammed.
-
no mine hasnt yet either
why do think he cleared the account then?
I think i might have froze his account before he got to use or withdraw all the funds, becuase he was trying hard to convince me to lift the dispute then gave up on it.
-
NeverGoingBack when did u escalate it to a claim?
-
just a guess. Well i do hope you froze his account.
Cool how you still have pictures of the item. His account is unverified obviously, but besides whats on this site i don't see any info on him, but didn't do much of a search.
-
i took all of his pics from his photobucket..

-
i hate scammers....
i almost fall for his lg incite and other stuff coz they are very cheap...
-
all i can advice is to open up and escalate paypal disputes and provide all the details i have which are
IP: 24.190.226.48
Hostname: ool-18bee230.dyn.optonline.net
that may help if you move forward to legal action.
-
Lol at his face. Hes like 35

Edit-
After googling a little he scammed on Console Spot too it seems.
Looks like they deleted all his stuff though :(

Edit:

-
Hm..He may be dead. Jumbo go pay tribute at his grave by peeing on it :rofl:
If you ever get ripped off, never wait. Getting scammed is not fun at all.
-
he still could be in that area i looked up my ip address and it shows me 2 blocks from my house. pretty damn close though. i say post his pic around where he lives. and let people know hes a scammer. he probably scams in his home town and just not on the net.
-
above statement is true
also i think its unlikely that, thats a pic of him, not saying it isnt, just more likely his dad, or a co-worker maybe?

Is there a way to add this to my dispute cause i already escalated it to a claim...
If someone find this guy or see him o would :censored: him up and do more stuff to him that u dont wanna know... lol (but im serious :angry:)
-
Good luck I paid 150.00 for the laptop and never heard from him again.Already filed a paypal claim.
-

-

yeah man, I was seriously thinking about buying that psp, too... what a :censored:
-
Guys... You have to think things through. A psp slim in perfect working condition is about 120-140, depending on where you get it. Plus the fact that it's a GOW psp, the price might go even higher. For $75, doesn't that sound too good to be true? On top of that, he's new here and doesn't have feedback. Sorry guys, I feel bad for you, but to avoid future incidents like this, remember the one golden rule: If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

You got it on the money, justin...
-
i know it sounds bad but there should be some kind of post count b4 you can sell stuff through fourms. it seems like anyone can take pics of their friends stuff and post it in fourms. then they use some wifi somewhere to post their claims(coffee shops) and its not their ip address. makes me mad though, i didnt get scammed but i noticed him putting new stuff up everyday. no one has that much cool stuff to sell.(we all like our stuff, atleast dont want to part with it.)
it seemed to good to be true and it was. sorry guys for your losses.
-
Yea. I wasn't even paying attention that he was a new seller. Gbatemp has the 100 post or long time member to go to the auction section of their fourms.
Btw the AT&T incite is crappy. It is slow touch screen becomes uncalibrated all the time. The touch screen later broke. Small screen area to see what u are typing. Had many of them exchanged.
-
yeah, i know the rules. but he was dropping the price, so it seemed like he was needing to sell it quick. It wasnt untill i afterwards, that he posted the netbook, and started erasing threads he collected money on that i got suspicios.
well ill keep you all updated how my claim goes and maybe things will work out for the best

When does urs end?
-
While having a post minimum may help in some cases, it will definitely not stop all the scamming. I got scammed (sorry for keep bringing it up) by two high post sellers so you would think they would be trusted

What did u buy from them?
-
From one person a motherboard. The other person some random modding things. Wire, soldering iron, rumble motors
-
omg, I almost bought that netbook
-
it sounds bad but i was looking at the net book and the psp. thinking man thats a good price. if i would have had the money in my paypal i would have got scammed too.
and robotiks i know it wouldnt help in all cases but it would help people spread the word someones a scammer before it gets too bad.

Thanks man. Any help would do good. You may not be able to get their money back but you may prevent others from having to deal with it. Unless he simply changes his name. Any forums with auctions that we can contact would be good. Like notify the admins of his IP and prevent him from selling things
-
no i didnt do it by telling other sites by email i reported all his details to a service we here at acidmods have recently began to use
-
Well I'm sure that will be effective

Tell us if he refunds you or finally ships it.
looking at his proile it looks like he told everyone he'd ship Tuesday
then got banned on purpose to get out of it.
Ok But he's not going to ship it for sure... He cant even provide a tracking # (Its fedex it should always have tracking) and why does he have to go to fedex?? he can just call?? What i think is He is just trying to convince me to cancel the dispute or somthing...
-
:censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:
-
Dont expect to get anything out of him. Hes not just gonna send the items to one person after he collected funds from everyone.
I won my dispute against him today, and didnt get ANYTHING, meaning he drained the account, sorry for the bad news.
:angry:
-
I agree with injungleist, I ask for a tracking number and send payment once I'm sure It's been shipped.
-
So nobody got anything back from him?!
Man this sucks for ya'll. Well maybe we can get paypal to get the police involved because this is illegal... he stole alot of money....
-
You guy's are freaking out, yet no one cares that J.s2 got me out for $40 and Gamerdude767 for $150 (there abouts). What can we do about it? not much.. so I feel bad for you if you can't get your money back, but if it can't you will just have to suck it up and get over it.
Lol Justin not EVERYTHING is too good to be true, I got a slim for $40 :tup:
Heh Google maps (which is maybe linked to that IP site somehow?_ anyways the pic's are always outdated by MANY years.. If they built houses there by now haha now you can seriously say their house was built over a haunted graveyard.. freak some people out :rofl: if they don't believe you tell em to dig a hole 6 feet down and see what they find.

Hey he still to this day hasn't sent it, and he was out for like 2 months. He also doesn't even have our items anymore as he got kicked out. Also he spent my money then he keeps telling me he doesn't have the money to send it but it only costs a friggin $2 to send it.

No its not that they are outdated. they just pinpoint to a certain radius. he probably live in those houses 2 blocks away. Sometimes it will even pinpoint to an old address. for instance if someone has a ip then moves across town and keeps the same ip, it can end up showing the old address.
-
Honestly... This doesn't need to be in the Auctions section. Sure, the trespasses occurred in the Auctions section, but as of now this is a discussion, and distracting to those trying to do business.
It also makes others trying to do business a little sketchy of it because this is here.
This really needs to be moved.
-
My claim was decided in my favor today and was rewarded $35.00 of the $150.00 I was scammed out of.Yippee
-
what address did you pay to. I dont think it could have been the same as mine since I didnt get anything from my claim.
seriously we should all post who we sent the money too.
if we take all those names and emails to paypal, they could probably find out what account all our money got transfered to and actually bust this guy.
Here the info I got

the360modder@gmail.com
Apologies for continuing on with this, when it may just be better left alone. I really just dont like the fact someone can get away with this and all paypal can say is they will send them collections, like that does any freaking good when the person is using fake info anyway.

You're right, no one DOES care about you getting scammed.
This is about the member the360modder, not anything to do with you and your problems unrelated to him.

I didnt get anything not even a cent from the dispute...
This is BS payapl should do somthing they have his address and all that :censored: and they just leave the problem? They should at lease investigate more cause there was like 4 people who opened a dispute on him and they didnt do :censored:.. WTF PAYPAL!
-
Had a feeling there was something up when he was offering everything for dirt cheap....
