Title: KI6NKZ - Thief and DIshonest
Post by: W0BKR on August 06, 2018, 05:48:05 PM
Purchased an item off this guy on QTH.COM and he never shipped anything and won't answer emails or phone.
Presently working with the Sheriff in Kuna, ID for resolution.  Beware of this guy selling or offering to buy ANYTHING.  AVOID.  Period.

Also USPS since mail fraud (using a PO drop box to obtain his illegal funds), bank since he has committed bank fraud.  May take a while, but glad I am not on the receiving end.

Well it has been several months did you get any results so far?

Nothing yet.  In fact, sent a note to the Feds and USPS.  You know the system...

Check with the police in your home state.  In Illinois a complaint has to originate with the complainant's police department, not the offenders.  I learned this from experience.

Postal inspectors ARE NOT REQUIRED to investigate complaints involving less than $300.  They'll accept the complaint and try to see if it fits into a pattern of offenses traceable to one perp.

Why did you post this here? Doesn't it more rightly belong in Good Seller/Buyer Beware, not Stolen Gear?

Still, I'm glad to see you're keeping right up with your record-breaking, historically bad luck with deals; so many scammers out there. Must get you lots of attention.

I looked at QRZ for KI6NKZ and an address does show up.

Sorry to see this, but this is why I always use Paypal, both as a seller, and a buyer.

yeah, and do you know that the ULS data it is pulled from is accurate and up to date?  Aside from the troll comments, a friend of mine also contacted this call for an item for sale and got the same info, send payment to Kuna, ID, I just moved there, don't have PP, etc.  Luckily for him, he saw the info.

OP, how did you pay the guy? (I'm at a loss after getting my wife to make several electronic payments, as there is a $ 2,500 limit set by BofA). Paypal? Money Order?

You could ask one of the resident all knowing trolls on here.  They seemingly know so much.  LOL  Pure comedy when they post.  Use PP is about all I can recommend.
