Default Westside = ripoff

Here is a link to the origional sale thread he had. I wanted the part's and felt like it was a good deal, he gave me a story about not having Paypal, or a bank account. I had not been ripped off by anyone so naturally I trusted the guy, and sent him money Western Union. I have contacted several people through the phone number placed in his thread but so far nobody has made him get his parts to me. I also found a local board he is on and posted there. Several people have been willing to help but I still dont have the parts almost 5 weeks later. I also posted in all of his other for sale thread's letting people know my problem's.

If people would handle there business no form of payment would be a "no no". The ripoff's are the problem not the form of payment.

I knew I was taking a chance with a form of payment that did not offer any security, but I am tired of people saying that is the #1 problem.

I just dont get the people on this site. I see so many people getting scammed BUT they wont leave negative feedback...That is fucked up because the next person to buy from him sees all positive feedback.


I guess people are terrified of a negative feedback in return...lol
You can always contact an admin and I am sure they will remove it if they see fit.

This is why before I buy anything anymore I search for the guys name, look in his old posts etc etc.

Good luck getting your money back!

Wow... that guy on Austin F-bodys is an idiot

Hope you get your parts... pretty sad that his buddies are so closeminded and cant see what a shady little **** he really is.

It''s between you and him and Gam Gam. Go find the f**ker and get your f**king money but as far as this thread shut your f**king **** hole because to be honest with you I have to deal with dollar figures and issues that would make this seem as f**king ridiculous as it s**t.

f**k you and you s**t *** deal you had with him. Go the f**k away and go f**k yourself.

It's as easy as this. You ordered some stupid f**king parts from him and he owes you the parts or money. Who gives a f**k other than you or him? Oh wait a few asses that have had this same problem. Personally at this point I don't give a flying f**k.

This is not recover your money on you s**t *** deals.com. So enough. Find his *** yourself or f**king eat it.

Just stop making posts about the money you lost and how you can't find him.

I don't give a f**k. Maybe a few people on here give a f**k I don't know.

You know his f**king name. I'm sure you have some contact info so go chase it down. At this point I just don't give a flying f**k.

Who on here want's to hear anymore s**t about this? It's between you and him not AFB, you and him.

So go f**k off and get your parts or not.

I think everyone or anyone that knows Matt has spoken up. Deal with it someplace else. We don't f**king care. You didn't buy parts from AFB. It's Matt. Find him and get your money and parts and f**king disappear.
