Driftinjdm240 SCAMMER!!!!

I would like to warn everybody on the forum that driftingjdm240 is a scammer and has stolen $520.00 dollars from me. He has two paypals and I cannot find the second one to track him down. He does not answer PM's or emails and has openly told people he paid me back but I have never received the money back.

I bought a turbo kit from him on Janruary 6th and still have not recieved a refund of a turbo kit. If you have any information on him like his real name phone number of know anything abuot me let me know.

The turbo kit was a T25 kit with a SSAC manifold.

Oil feed, intake, foam green mushroom filer, 300zx maf, SR injectors in the rail, and 3 inch tubular elbow.

If you see this kit pop up anywhere let me know.

He also goes by The Big bad KA-t and USAKA24-T or something like that.

Thanks.

He told me his name was John Hess and he lived in North Carolina. I talked to him on another forum and he said his name was Roberts.

His paypal account said James Mcmanus. He either lives in Northwest GA or North Carolina.

Thanks for your help. I know I should have been more cautious but I have never had any problems with dishonest people. I bought Te37's for 600 dollars and had no problems. I also purchased my ATS deftforce 2-way for $500 brand new in box.

If people need money they need money. I dont think I was going to get scammed until he had the turbo rebuilt then it was a huge loss. He tried to sell it again on this forum for 800 a couple weeks ago and I called him out so he deleted the thread.

I talked to him. He doesnt seem like a bad guy. He told me he was going to ship the kit this weekend without the turbo becuase the turbo is in Alabama getting rebuilt. I am just trying to get what I can out of this.

He lives in NC his cousin lives in GA.

Thanks for the help.

I talked to him last week and he said he was going to send it this weekend. Called him the next day and his phone is canceled.

If you see a T25 turbo kit for sale with a HKS green filter please let me know and dont buy it till you have confirmed its not this guy. He still has the kit and he will try to sell it again or scam another person. I hope I can prevent another 240 owner from having his money stolen.
