As you all may have known before I was going turbo.

Well, the turbo was still on the guys van (he swapped in a 3800 to his montana van which he then turbo'd) so he kept saying the turbo would be off soon and that we could meet up.

I sent him some money on December 9, we were exchanging PM's, slowly but surely, since that time time up until a few weeks ago.

I tried numerous times to contact him through PM and also using the cellphone number he gave me. Finally one Friday (Feb, 6) I did manage to get a hold of him. He fed me some lies about being in the hospital and that we could meet up that Sunday. He gave me an email address and said to call him later that day or the next to set up a time and place. He never answered or returned any of my calls after that.

He hasn't been seen online the forum that this deal was set up in a long time, but after some searching I did find that he has been on another forum on February 16, 2009. His last post there was February 11, 2009. So he has been active since him and I last talked.

Now when calling his phone it goes straight to voicemail, even from other phones with other area codes incase he had my number blocked.

He also owes parts to another person that can also not get ahold of him.

I have been searching the net and have the numbers of all people with his first initial and last name in his area. There are about 20 different numbers...

I cannot dispute it with paypal because it has been more than 45 days since I sent payment.

So I decided to post a thread on the local forum asking if anyone has his address. If I have his address I can atleast confront him so he cannot give me the run around or I can file with Small Claims Court. No one seems to have his address... however one person did find
this article, posted 7 days ago.

Jeffrey Kuntz is the guy.

So now it seems like I have to contact the police if I want anything to be done about this.

Now, after spending quite a bit of money on buying parts for my turbo build, I think I will be staying supercharged after selling most of my supercharged build parts.

Just thought I would share my most recent problems.

I think I am going to stick to local pick ups from now on.

Wow bro I hope you get him some how! Sucks that it has gone to the police now. Just makes things that much more difficult.

Sorry to hear about this bro I was really looking forward to your build.

wow, bad deal. sorry to hear that you got took. Hopefully you can recoup some of that money through the court system.

His last name is Kuntz? That's funny, considering he's a...never mind. lol

Sorry to hear that man. You never can tell about people today...

That sucks. :-( With what you have though you should be able to track him down. Check facebook/myspace. ;-) People have been served through there before, courts found it to be a legal means of summons.

I have some behind the scenes work going on right now, I'm not posting everything I know because I want all my chit in a pile when I do this.

good luck with everything, I absolutely can't stand people like that

ill drive up to canada and we can go jump this guy lol and take the van !

Call the police and tell them whats up. I'm sure they can do something.

Sorry about your luck, man.

Is this the same dude on clubgp that turboed the 3800 in the minivan? That guy seemed cool, hope wasn't him.

That's really stink. I hate people do that. Hopefully, it will work out for you.

Wow, I would have use my shotgun on him.

yes, it is the same guy. That is the same turbo that I bought off him.

Insanity ...

That sucks man, and if I were you, id also report him to pay pal, I know you cant dispute the the transaction but you can give them the info, maybe they will freeze his account...a kind of like if you f%$&k with me, ill return the favor.
Hope you get your cash and maybe a little more back.
Again sorry to hear this
