Ok folks, it has come to my attention that Org member scubasteve has not sent parts to several members, and has failed to reply to pm's /emails concerning this issue.
If any org members that have not received items from him would like to post their story, please feel free to do so. Maybe we can get enough information together to be able to contact him in other ways besides pm's or emails. I have sent him a email regarding this, but no response as of yet.
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

Giving up on 76.96.30.116.
I sent him money in early September for some speakers he was selling. He came off as a very nice guy and was very responsive to my e-mails at first. But then I never received my item and he never responded back. I put a claim through paypal. Either something happened to him or he is a good Con-Artist.
he got me for $25, paid Sept 22. I have all of his personal info.
I sent this pm to a few people that had been ripped off.

Greetings. I'm contacting you fellas about the issue we've had with the poster Scubasteve in regards to some stuff we purchased off his classified thread.
Like someone said, his funds have more then likely been withdrawn so even if paypal sides with us, we won't see anything.
Not sure how far you guys wanna go with this (LEGALLY). Personally I'm out $25, so I'm not that hosed. Still there's the principle of it and all.
I took the liberty to do some intelligence gathering. Not sure if you guys have done so already but here's my findings.
cape coral is about 10 minutes from ft meyers. ill be heading over that way around christmas time, but i know for a fact there are a few maxima.org heads in that area.
i suggest posting in the SW regional thread for anyone who knows/lives close by to him.
4th gen. items FS:
-2 sets of 9004 bulbs ($10/set).
-1157 red LED bulbs ($5).
-OEM bumper lights ($20).
-License plate light assembly ($10).
-PM me if interested.
-Shipping/PayPal fee not included..

Does that mean I pwn you because I live at 35 VQ street?
All joking aside, I just wanted to say that people shouldn't be trying to go about this by showing up at his residence, certified mail will probably get to him faster anyways......
I finally traced him down last fall. I registered and sent him pm's and emails and he would not respond. finally, i called him out on the board and finally got a response, of course. i even put a link to the maxima.org complaint thread which tells of his exploits. of course he denies all, says he sent all items out to everyone but cannot prove it, of course. then his site was shut down through last winter, and i noticed a bit ago that it is back up again. i have not tried again to call him out on his thefts.
Jesus christ what do you people want from me?? I told you months ago i'm not refunding anything. I sent everything that was owed out and the post office confirmed everything was delivered. Nothing ever came back to me.
I replied to paypal and was told the burden of proof was on me and the usps apparently isnt good enough for them. There was a few hundred bucks in my paypal account, and now its in the negatives.
So not only did everything go out but i lost every single penny and more that i would have made on the deal. I'm not going to send out more money when im already out the cash and the parts, it's just not going to happen.
I find it really suspicious that people got their parts from that same shipment and magically you didnt Troy. Then next thing you know all of a sudden a bunch of people didnt get their stuff once you start whining and the usps says you're all wrong.
It sucks, but i already got screwed twice so you guys ar eon your own with your scam.
It probably makes you seem even more suspicious that you deleted/cancelled your Facebook and Myspace and took down your pen name site rather quickly after I posted the links

if i did receive my part and failed in some conspiracy to "scam" you, why would i be so persistent at following up on this?
i was not the first to complain about not getting my part, i actually waited for over at least 1 month b4 even saying a thing. other started saying they did not get their stuff and then i started to worry. bring your paypal up to date and get my tracking number so we can find out what happened to the part, thats all i ask. i did all i could in calling paypal and usps, like you suggested i do, to get the tracking number with no results.
i'm really sure the ones who bought from you and did not receive their parts are all ganging up on you trying to all scam the same guy.... right.
btw, i signed up again on his web site forum and he banned me after 1 post. haha, like there is no way around that. don't worry i will not bother you again in your little world steve or jason or whatever your name is. i believe in karma, and if you did scam you will get yours someday, don't worry.

I deleted the myspace account over a week ago and the facebook a day later. I could give a **** less what you know about me. As for the pen name site i thought i had disabled the DB for that but i must have forgotten, and when i saw it was up i took care of it.

Whatever you say dude. And yea i did a low level ban on you for annoying me. If i really wanted you out it's easy enough to do lol.
You know what i don't honestly have the time to go back and forth. I'll tell you what you sit down with your little group os bs artists and you total up what it is you think i owe you each and post it up. We'll go from there so i dont have to hear about this dumb **** anymore.

i have no idea who you owe or how much you owe to anyone else, nor is it any of my business. i do not even know any of the others who have posted in here about this matter. i do know and it is my business that i paid you $75 for a hitch that i never received and you cannot prove you even sent it by providing a tracking number so we can find it. so as far as i'm concerned it's $75.
i guess you do not want any of your pals on the ltr450hq.net board to know whats going on, so you deleted my post there. nice.
edit: oh yeah btw, i'd rather just find the hitch is so i can have it.
>>edit: oh yeah btw, i'd rather just find the hitch is so i can have it.
Thats between you and the post office call them. I'll think about it for a few days, but i can tell you it wont be no $75 when i dont have the original payment or my part.

i don't think this is the best way to solve this disagreement in a forum thread, but whatever.
i called the post office last fall already, without a tracking number there is no way to find this package, that is where you need to step up to the plate and deliver. they did tell me i have nothing waiting for me at my local post office, that's all they could tell me.
i do not know what you mean you do not have the original payment, i have the paypal receipt and dispute case emails telling me "We have decided in your favor, however, we were unable to recover any funds from the seller's account". i'm not sure what more there is to prove that i paid for this item.

All that information is held by paypal, which i cant access. Paypal took all the money, don't know what to tell you. Like i said, i'll think on it.
