Default Beware of lsx383stang

I paid for a wiring harness early this week and this guy will not respond to any messages or emails. Another guy on here paid for a procharger and he hasnt heard from the guy either.

We have both disputed the transaction on Paypal so hopefully we can get our money back.

Ya I shouldnt have even dealt with the guy since he didnt have a seller rating or any posts. I figured since it was paypal I had pretty low risk since they will refund my money. Still sucks though because I have to wait for the money to be refunded before I buy another harness.

Here is his paypal info:

staven sharp
steveman1978@gmail.com


He has scammed several other members on the forums too... but all within a day or two so no warnings could be made.

He hasnt been on LS1tech since 1 minute after I sent him his money so I bet he has made another user name and is on here trying to scam more people.

for those he has scammed PLEASE LEAVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK ON HIS TRADER RATING PAGE. You will be helping out the next person he tries to scam.

I dont understand why you guys dont do this, if he scams you, do everything in your power to make it known, please dont forget about the iTrader rating system!!!!!!!

I wanted to post negative comments but I couldnt find where to do it? I went to his profile but couldnt find anything there.

Please point me in the right direction and I will surely put a negative review on there.

Problem is he hasnt been on LS1Tech since I sent him my payment (5:28pm 3/22/11)

So he has probably created a new email address and a new LS1Tech username and is trolling around here trying to find someone else to screw...

Took him a week to respond to the Paypal complain that I filed. Paypal requested a tracking number, he said "pick-up" and gave all zeroes for the tracking #s. I filed a complaint one day after the sale.

He should be banned from the site - how do we do so?
