Mods scammer alert

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
So it started last Saturday.. I spoke with 335iboosted about a MMP port injection kit he had for sale.. He was very off and on when I spoke to him weeks prior. I finally decided to pull the trigger and try and work on a deal. Other members on here said the deal fell through and they didn't hear from again once that said they would be using PayPal goods and services. I found that out after searching him.
So last Saturday we agreed on a price and I PayPal him the money via goods and services.
He says he shipped out that day and would get me tracking number later he was busy. I asked him all the way up to wed like 3 times a day and never received tracking and havnt heard back from him.

I have a dispute in with PayPal and still have not heard from him.. Idk what the protocol is for scammer if you reach out to him or what but at very least I want others to read this

I couldn't imagine not sending someone what they pay me for.. You know like that item you searched high and wide for and can't wait to get in the mail!

I lose my shit if I don't get something out the same day for someone!

sorry to hear bro, but yea i've dealt with that person a few weeks back and posted it on the sale thread to warn guys not to deal with him. Then some guy with 3 posts total (at the time) comes in and claims he bought an item from 335iboosted and it came in, but I still dont believe it. Hope PayPal backs you up. As you can imagine had you paid it with "friends and family" your money is 100% gone.

Update he finally shipped it after I contacted PayPal. I got it yesterday and what a joke.. Missing bolts.. Missing gaskets and missing the fuel line..

There is one orb style connector in the kit but in the pot he stated he got the new one from mmp.. Bullshit! Plus a random injector laying in the box.. Buyer beware guys..

I Contacted him on this and no response of course

If this is a known issue, why is this person still in e90post????

Some of us are planning to stay with the e9X platform, so let's try to preserve this forum!!!

Mods: can you ban this guy? There seem to be quite a lot of scammers on here lately and I hate to see that happen to our community.

Mods should take action. E9X N54s are making 700whp, and will reach the 1000whp...the platform is going nowhere, and this forum is here to stay. Let's keep it honest, moderators. Thanks!
