jimjimbo Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Tough to get a solid fix on this guy, because he changes names all the time, but a couple of items have remained pretty fixed...He will send reply mail from a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 5 (has that in his mail signature...real smart), and the second thing is he always demands, and I mean demands, that you provide a phone number. I have run up against him a couple of times, and he is a complete fruitcake. Beware. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Does he use a particular name? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Unfortunately, no. As I said, he changes names, and posts mostly in the Indy area. If you ever were to talk with him....he has a pretty significant southern accent, and yaks, and yaks, and yaks. It's always about how great his audio stuff is....If you piss him off (which I have)...in his warped mind you are doomed from ever buying anything in the area again. I think he sees himself as the local audio Mafioso.... And just in case you were all wondering....no, this isn't Colter....I think...

twk123 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 So does he actually have stuff to sell or is he one of the "Send you a money order for an assistant to pick up" type scams? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 I have never physically seen his stuff. In the 3 times I have dealt with him (once on the phone), he asked me to send a deposit prior to coming to look at something so he would hold it. The two times I dealt with him via email, he became extremely irate that I didn't want to provide my phone. And I mean, somewhat irrational... Here's an example: I sent a mail inquiring about an item. He replied with: GIVE ME A CONTACT NUMBER!! When I didn't respond in 15 minutes....He sent a mail: WELL?????!!!!! You get the point, I hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 So give him the local police department number. Or you can give him the suicide hotline number. Either would probably rub him the wrong way. Depending on how he handled being routed to unsuspected number he might get an unwanted visit. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
