Hstone85 scammer?
So I bought a stage 3 zzp h/e ,and sent him the payment through PayPal. Haven't heard from him since Feb 3 its been a week so I started a PayPal dispute. Anyone personally know him that can ask him what's goin on?

I had the same issue with him last year with some turbo parts I bought from him. He tried to screw me on some parts but paypal ended up refunding me the money after almost 2 months of waiting.

I can't really do anything until he logs back on, or responds to my PM.

I hope you guys get this resolved through paypal.

good thing for using paypal though. i mean if u leave bad itrader or if he gets banned we shouldn't have that issue with him again... autochecking IP addresses could also help that cause perhaps.

or a $50 deposit to be able to post in classifieds and you get it refunded when you get 2 or 3 good itrader transactions

There is absolutley no way to stop scamming completely. You just gotta understand the risks that come with buying through forums

This.

Our new rules have cut it down greatly, but it will never be 100% safe.
