Holy cow the scamming that's going around in the GT-R forums is crazy.. My brother is in the market for one and he sent me this link and I can't believe people would just wire money like that to some low life about car parts you gotta pay to play not take the easy way out and get screwed over like this.

More I see stuff some posted on that thread, less I am going to be active on gtr life. So many douche postings...
-"14k doesn't effect my life" -picture with ~120k cash inside the cadillac -dealt with billionaires etc. I was browsing McLaren Life last night to see DIYs, and they were humble compare to SOME GTR Life members there.

I just read the most of the thread. It makes me really sick to my stomach some jack@ss who try to con other members with mail fraud.
Sadly those people are getting away with it. I've seen Classified and Equipment Exchange in all sort of forums which they had those clowns. I hope GTRLife mod will make that posting sticky. I am sure he will target other car forum members as well. Thanks for posting.

But let's be honest, who in the heck sends all that type of money by wire transferring them?!?!?!? Wouldn't you want to be more secure and send them from your bank card? Aggravates me though knowing people worked hard for that money and then they get walked on by people like him with fraud.

I had a friend, who tried to actually get into these, early. He asked me to calculate the probabilities of many of them working and actually, I found it fascinating. It seemed the most successful scams were the most honest ones. Those who told people early on, we are going to scam others, but not you since you'll be in the know.. He asks me two favors, I told him my honest opinion and it was always over ruled. He's not in jail, but he had to pay everything back plus legal fees. I win.

I also think the MLM (multi-level marketing companies) are somewhat scam too.
This is one story I still remember.. About 13 years ago, my sister's family was victim of ponzi scam. This turd was selling some unregistered IOU or Bonds claiming that he is selling bonds for Belize Coca-cola bottling company. It was too good to be truth. They didn't even have a prospectus for investments. They did mange to get some money out due to suspicion , but not all. Biggest clue was "how do we pay the taxes on the gain?" Those guys laughed it off. http://articles.latimes.com/2005/mar...ess/fi-ponzi23 https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/lr18446.htm http://www.justice.gov/usao/cac/Pres...r2005/051.html Quote:

I truly do love the idea of gaining anything without actually working for it.
It happens but not actually that often. I can say for sure my car is the most expensive of its generation. I regret not one cent.
