OK, I had resisted posting this since the beginning of this forum, but now, the humor is beyond ignoring.
In a nut-shell, this guy posts
eBay ad's selling wheels. He goes out of the
eBay rules and states in his ad's that you can contact him outside of
eBay to "make another deal" (which is against
eBay rules).
So, this kid, Kenny, "made a deal" and was properly billed for his order, but well after his payment went through, Ladd Murdock contacted him asking for more money, for what he called "tax", but he wanted a different payment method and different payee name from the original bill. Not fishy -- this is a SCAM.
This dim-witted scammer proceeds to degrade the customer and even posts an
eBay ad with the CUSTOMER's personal home address and credit card information, along with stating he'll give the winner of the auction (thief) the key to the product the customer bought, to anyone who wants to steal it.
This is his retaliation for the customer questioning the legality of having to pay his sales tax when the purchase was made out-of-state. So, Ladd, of wholesale-rims makes up stories about his relatives in the FBI, who will bring the customer to his knees if he doesn't submit, and more stories about filing investigations with his local law authorities and legal "teams" against his teen-age customer. I actually hurt in my side from laughing so much.
He claims to be a 32-year-old professional business-man, but from reading through the thread, all I see him as, is a clown.
But, he is ripping people off, so this needs to be spread around. Con's need no mobility.
And, that's not the best part of this story. The con, is such an outrageous freak of civility, that you can't help but to be amazed and humored. A person like that ends up on front-page news, but not because of their accomplishments -- because of their disconnect from the thing that makes them so ... well... f'ing weird!
