Hey guys,

Just found out SilverRush and Alpine550 is actually the same person. He was advertising his stuff here again yesterday! After I have identified him he change his message to "Wrong msg sorry" trying to cover up his duo identities here. Here's a link to that thread: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=31346. :thumbsdown:
Wow...that's a shame. He changed his name so he wouldn't have to face the truth. Such a shame...

Well, at least we know he's in Seattle, WA, should anyone decide to buy from a seller out of there...

Hey guys, I really don't recommend doing business with this guy. He sold me a set of rims where 3 out of the 4 were bent and he is not taking any blame for it. Now I'm going to fix these rims and sell them. I don't believe a member in a forum of such would actually do something like this.

Don't distrust all of us from the Seattle area, just him.

Sell them to him, but send him a brick in a box.

Hello Folks,

Indeed SilverRush and Alpine550 are the same person. It seems like he's caused some issues with members here and Iceman found a fairly extensive negative history of this person on many other forums, some of which he was already banned from. For these reasons he's now banned here as well.

Nice job Mark. Just curious though...how do you prevent him from signing on as a new member? Block his IP address?
