HOTRODCOUPES is a scammer??

Just a guess

I have some stuff for sale posted here in FS. It is listed under Tokico Dspecs, etc. in the parts FS.

Hotrodcoupes apparently lives in AZ and contacted me by email. He has been yanking my chain for a few days now about not receiving emails, etc.

I did some research here and apparently he has some history of this.

CAREFUL those who are buying or selling, dont work with, trust, or even bother replying to HOTRODCOUPES.

HOTROD, youve been made, again!!!

For my own protection I did a search oe ebay for users.

There are no Hotordcoupes registerd in AZ.

But there is a "davejadams" in Ebay as a current user registered in AZ.

Member Profile: davejadams (3)

I dont know if it is the same person or not, but in the emails I receive from Hotrodcoupes his name is Dave Adams


Here again, I do not know if the davejadams ebay member and hotrodcoupes is the same person or not. Just information

Thanks for the warning guys. I've done some searching on this guy and I think there's pretty convincing evidence that he's a tard.

There is no doubt after dealing with him for a few days in my email that this guy is either a few bricks short or an intentional scammer, and not a very good one at that.

It is unfortunate that the tremendous benefits of this new electronic information age we are in has to be jacked up by such users.

He just emailed me again this morning.

Carefull of this one!!

we should probably have this moved to the good guy/bad guy section so others don't get scammed. after a bit this will just be another buried thread in the discussion section but will stand out and be more helpful in the other.
