Report him to ebay and someone in NJ should notify the authorities of his activities. That was fun wasn't it?

I have asked anyone who got ripped off by this guy to PM me with the details so that I could take all of the information including mine to the DA's office in Vineland, NJ to file an Internet fraud against him. No one answered me. With all of the talk on various forum's here about this, why has everyone chickened out. He still has a slew of SVX goods on eBay. I am getting tired of writing to each bidder warning them.

I never got scammed by him so I have nothing to offer to this. I would highly suggest everyone does end this info to him so we can get this all settled and finally make a point to people that we will not be had.

I say we should start a new thread calling for people that have been scammed to report it. As a matter of fact, I'll take care of it right now.

Out of curiosity I emailed him about one of his auctions and here's his reply....gotta give him points for determination.

Item: Subaru svx Black Spioler (8033553108)
This message was sent while the listing was active.
slonsvx5mt is the seller.
it not true what they say -- i am not 1vs1vs1 i assure you that if you do not believe me i can do half before shipment and half when it arrives.

Kinda feel sorry for all the poor bastards that have already bid on his auctions.

I wrote to every high bidder on all of his auctions. Some thanked me and some didn't want to believe me.

High bidders probably thought you wanted to beat them at the auction.

Judging from some of his past practices, some of the high bidders may have been him

what's the chances of that.
...creeper....

Very Strange

I find it very strange that Slon is selling a 5 speed conversion kit on Ebay---Yet he is the high bidder on a conversion kit being sold by a seller in California. Now which end is going to be burned?

Since slon has so captured our attention....he also has bids in on an SVX, a WRX turbo, and an STI 6-speed tranny. Even though he's not the high bidder for these.

Someone mentioned earlier an Ebayer with "creep" in their name? The seller of the 5-speed swap slon is bidding on is creepz120 and of course has zero feedback. The seller of the SVX he's bidding on also has zero feedback.

Not to be an alarmist but perhaps there's something fishy going on. Will be interesting to watch the drama unfold.
