There are many replies on many, many threads that Quad_M and I had years ago, where I called him out on many, many issues and felt something was shady. I didn't cut him any slack. I had a lot of members lay into me and tell me I was wrong at the time. They have since apologized and they have since hired me as a private investigator for their personal matters .

It got to the point where Mark, he and I took it offline on PM to handle it. This was of course while he was still selling his kits with 6-9 month delays to members, before he finally disappeared with over 40+ members money. How much did he run off with again? $100,000 of members money? Makes me nauseas thinking about it. Worse scam ever on this forum. Nothing will ever top it.
Good heavens. I hope someone called the police and/or the FBI. That's enough $$$ that the authorities might have been interested.

I believe a bunch of police reports were filed. A thread was started and a few members took it offline to get everyone's full names and info, that was affected by this. Those were bad times on this forum. People were so furious.

Me too. I have case where I am pursuing a bastard who stole tens of millions of dollars -- the kicker: the bastard was a well-known car enthusiast/collector. These kinds of thieves really do fascinate me as I don't understand how they sleep at night. But they do.

Dude Scott that's also what happened recently in fresno.. A local luxury preowned dealer and authorized new lotus dealer ripped off a bunch of people. Pretty much stole a bunch of cars, on the news they were pulling a bunch of sick rides out of an aquantances of his backyard. He had like X amount of cars under tarps. On the news they were towing out all kinds of bentleys, rolls, maybachs... Etc. This dude also took over a lease on a huge "new" exclusive night club.. Got some B celebs to show up On opening night (one of em being Kim kardash) sold some kind of exclusive month or 6 month VIP passes for like a 1k bucks... Then closed the club after 1 night (turns out this fcker only applied for a 1 day liquor license) I'm not being prejudice or anything but the guy was Armenian and the VIPs he mainly ripped off were also Armenian, crazy sh*t he was arrested a few days after the nightclub scam
