Default Scammers on LS1tech

I couldnt find the right spot to post this in so feel free to move it.

I put up a wanted add for a fast or ls6 intake recently and was contacted by what seemed to be a few different people. I sent paypal to one of the guys for a fast 78 and of course did not show up. Luckly my bank has buyer protection for me.

This guy goes go by a couple different user names:

USMC_ls1
Pure HorsePower
Tyboweski
RoadRage Performance
ls1_tsi
And im sure many more.

His paypal email was gysgt.freeman@mail.com

Mods if you could it would be very good if you could ban this IP address.

Sorry for the annoyance but i dont want anyone else to go through this crap.
