SCAM ALERT: Kristopher Nick Hope from Manitoba, Canada who has my PROJECT MU BRAKES

I'm the guy he scammed with the HKS kit. I'm in the middle of the claims process with Paypal. Hopefully if he does anything stupid on that front, Paypal will

I'm the guy he scammed with the HKS kit. I'm in the middle of the claims process with Paypal. Hopefully if he does anything stupid on that front, Paypal will send their laywers after him. $1900 (I only sent half first) is enough for Paypal to do serious investigation on. And now, there's enough proof around to really screw him over.

His court records were dug up in the HKS thread.

I'm glad that the Project Mu kit will hopefully be worked out for you. I wish all those other scams he pulled had good endings too. This guy ought to be put behind bars for a few years.

EDIT: Surely there's some board on 4chan that would be perfect for the pics of his girlfriend. They'd probably have a field day with her.

I thought about something similar, but let us remember he is the jerk and she just dates him.

But really put this on 4chan and let the games begin. He will come begging you to stop. Also his address has been posted...Now if I was the one that was scammed, I would pay him a "friendly" visit.

I don't think it will work out for me in the end, but I'm definitely not giving up. He's been stalling and being evasive since day 1, why do you think he will give in? I noticed his activity is still active, he's still browsing these forums.

I think he's referring to the fact that the guy who bought your stolen BBK kit contacted you. Refer to his post here: http://www.the370z.com/parts-sale-pr...ml#post2424172

Man This really sucks. Just a word of caution though, I would be sure about the law when posting information & what not. With all this social media stuff & problems it causes, the law is constantly changing on what is & is not legal. would hate to see someone turn this all around especially when involving a person who may or may not be behind any of it (Girlfriend). Douche bags like this always know a way to worm inside & outside of the law. I wish you the best, but be careful in the course you pursue

Call the police! You have clearly documented "intent to permanently deprive" and have a decent case. Many departments will be reluctant, calling it a civil matter. Be adamant that this guy has a history. Bottom line, even if charges aren't filed, maybe the pressure of having the police contact him will wake this scumbag up!

I hate ******* thieves!!!
